    Official: Federer will not play singles at #LaverCup

    So you’re saying no one is paying ridiculous prices to see Djokdal? :laughing:

    Finally she spells it out.... Mens vs Womens tennis

    So men who need 5 sets to win should get paid more than men who only need 3? Since when has prize money ever been based on sets played or time on court? The only reason to pay WTA players less is they don’t generate the ticket sales the ATP players do.

    Zverev claims FO wants Alcaraz to advance, complains about scheduling

    I guess it’s like players not playing on CC at Wimbledon before the final? Sucks for Zverev but if he was playing like anything close to Alcaraz this year he’d be getting those slots.

    We all know the end is coming. Of course it could be he got sick of his kids pestering him about it and finally gave in.

    McEnroe wants matches to be shorter

    Shut up McEnroe.

    Murray : Wimbledon will never be an exhibition and will never feel like an exhibition. The end.

    Then they need to STFU. Or at least be honest and admit money and titles mean more to them than sticking up for their fellow players.

    Murray : Wimbledon will never be an exhibition and will never feel like an exhibition. The end.

    This isn’t about Russia. It’s about individual athletes. The Ukrainian athletes who advocated for the ban are wrong. It’s an emotional response.

    Murray : Wimbledon will never be an exhibition and will never feel like an exhibition. The end.

    If players care about their fellow players what reason do they have for not boycotting?

    5000 days ago Federer won his last US Open title

    Here’s a question: what would have happened to Fed’s career if he lost the 2004 match against Agassi?

    "Its very unfair to them; they're not responsible for this war" Nadal comments on Russian ban at Wimbledon

    Good for Nadal. Players need to say they’re going to boycott unless this stupid decision is reversed.

    Djokovic: There's a rule against discrimination in tennis and Wimbledon has violated it.

    Good. I hope players boycott Wimbledon or the ATP/WTA offer no ranking points for it.

    Roger’s alive! Thanks for sharing. Looks great though he just needs to accept his receding hairline vs trying to cover it up with longer hair in the front.

    Rafa on Osaka : “Even if it’s terrible to hear that…. We need to be prepared for that, we need to resist these issues”

    Osaka needs to go away. Nobody would miss her. What’s most offensive is she admitted she only wants to play the minimum number of tournaments necessary to keep a high ranking. Sorry Naomi, you’re not Serena. You can’t just show up at a slam after not playing for months and win the thing.

    Korda looks back on match, in awe of Nadal's fight

    But not in awe of his massive choking.

    If Nadal and/or Djokovic break Federer’s GS record does the record become meaningless?

    As bad as Federer allegedly is it’s amazing how he continues to live rent free in the heads of Djokdal fans. They can’t stop talking about him and obsessing over him.

    Djokovic to BBC: "I’m not anti-vax but will sacrifice trophies if told to get jab"

    It’s confusing to me why Djoker would say something now when these tournaments are months away and we don’t know for sure if they’ll have mandates to play. And if this is about taking a stand against vaccine mandates why didn’t he say this before the Australian Open? It would have caused him a...

    ESPN’s Australian Open coverage leaves tennis fans lost and poorer

    It might be the same announcers they use for the extra channels on DIRECTV. Not sure if those announcers are actually working for ESPN.

    ESPN’s Australian Open coverage leaves tennis fans lost and poorer

    They’re doing that in every time zone. Here in the central time zone they don’t come on until 8pm. I wonder if the crappy coverage is due to covid and them not sending anyone down there (besides Darren Cahill and Rennae Stubbs who would probably be there anyway). I remember in the recent...

    ESPN & ESPN2 Ceding To ESPN+

    ESPN didn’t send anyone to Australia and it seems like they pushed night matches to ESPN+. The ones I watched didn’t have any ESPN crew doing the commentary. Tennis Channel did something similar with the warm-up tournaments. They commented on the day matches and showed Aussie feeds for the night...

    ESPN & ESPN2 Ceding To ESPN+

    Of course not. It’s to fleece people for $6.99/mo. Of course I’m going to sign up but I already set a reminder to cancel once AO is over.

    ESPN & ESPN2 Ceding To ESPN+

    The change is only a few hours shown on ESPN (or ESPN2). The rest you have to get from ESPN+. Last year they pretty much had first ball to last ball coverage between those two networks. Greedy bastards.

    ESPN & ESPN2 Ceding To ESPN+

    It’s not like they can’t put it on ESPN+ in addition to ESPN/ESPN2. I just looked at my guide and for most of the time they’d normally be showing AO they’re showing tapped programming. Greedy bastards.
