    Even after video review, this was not ruled a double bounce. (Haddad-Maia vs. Kalinskaya)

    I just watched a YouTube video about this incident. The YouTuber said that even though we’ve seen the video/photo of a couple of guys reviewing the video in the booth, their job wasn’t to yay or nay the decision. They just provided the video replay and the umpire who made the bad call had the...

    Rublev gets *defaulted* for unsportsmanlike conduct, at *5-6 in the third

    The people here defending Rublev’s mental breakdown, in my opinion, are people who are OK with people who berate, intimidate fast food workers doing their minimum wage jobs. They like looking down on people they think are beneath them and feel they have the right to treat them like dirt. I like...

    WTA week of 10/3; Ostrava 500 & Monastir 250

    I have a question about the new coaching rules. I'm watching the replay of the Sakkari v Parks match and after they split sets there is a bathroom break delay as Parks goes off court to change her kit. I see Sakkari having a full blown conversation with her coach. Not words of encouragement, or...

    Miami 2022: Kyrgios - Fognini

    If you are referring to the scream on the first point when Kyrgios served for the match that was Fognini who screamed. I’m sure if Krygios missed the overhead Fognini would have been called for hindrance.

    2021 Italian Open - WTA 1000

    I was under the impression that the LL is awarded to the highest ranked person to lose in the last round of qualifying. Either I’m incorrect (because Sloane was the highest ranked) or she declined the LL spot. Does anyone know they awarded the LL spots?

    2020 Roland Garros - General Discussion (ATP)

    This is completely off topic but during the shutdown I decided to learn French. So now with this tournament it’s been fun trying to see how much I can understand at the end of match on court interviewer, etc. What I’m having difficulty is understanding the word the chair ump says if the game...

    RG qualifying in disarray ?

    I made no statement downplaying the severity of COVID. I just corrected your mistake.

    RG qualifying in disarray ?

    Dimitrov was clearly symptomatic with fever, fatigue, weight loss, loss of smell and taste and breathing difficulties but he was not hospitalized. At least there is no mention of going to the hospital in this article...

    Crowd Reaction to Djokovic DQ

    I think the crowd would have eaten him alive after seeing him hit the lineswoman with the ball. Then they would have totally lost their minds after learning that he had been defaulted.

    2020 US Open - Official Thread for Women's Tennis

    I was very impressed with Mertens last night. It’s been a while since I really watched her play and her forehand was a definite weakness. She improved that side so much. Azarenka v Mertens will be a good contest. I started watching this match completely neutral. Soon I was pulling 100% for...

    Hot Damn - Djokovic KICKED OUT of US Open?!

    IMO Djokovic was well on his way to slam #18 and to ultimately pass both Federer and Rafa to be considered the GOAT. But holy smokes, Djokovic keeps adding more and more reasons why he will never be held in the high regard that Fed and Rafa are. All the way back when he use to retire from every...

    WTA week of Febuary 24. 2020 Premier 5 Qatar Open & International Mexican Open

    Jabeur has been around for a while. She’s a great ball striker with a lot of variety and guile. It seems as though her game is coming together as she is now at highest ranking now (#38) after this win.

    Pregnant Eva Aseraki is chair ump. There’s no way Nick would have a go at her.

    A great atmosphere in Louis Armstrong for Taylor’s match. I came an hour before the match started to get a good general admission seat. So fun watching Taylor serve and volley, attack and charge!! Go TT!!!

    OMG $58,000 for First Round?!?

    I think of it as though these guys are being rewarded for all the hard work and dedication they put into the sport to make it to the Top 100. It’s a validation of their sacrifice not a gift or easy money.

    Brooksby

    He has committed to play for Baylor in January. In his interview after his win against Berdych Brooksby stated that he plans to play Challengers for the rest of the year with a goal to make it into the Top 200. He will then make a decision as to whether he’ll go to Baylor or turn pro.
