Looks more like hailstones.

The "hail delay" graphic tipped me off.

In Munich they prefer to spell it "Heil Delay" lol

Is that normal this late in April?

Just FYI, Germans don't appreciate these kind of jokes.

So unless you're OK with 9/11 jokes, or lynching jokes, I'd just zip it

Yes, I lived in Munich for 4 years, it always rains in the Spring. It's not "global warming," as someone (apparently with a straight face) suggested in the match thread. Munich has been cold and rainy in April since time began.

I don’t understand why they have this tournament, never liked it

Munich will be a 500 event next year.

April is often a weird month for weather. Here in the UK we are having a horrendous April with constant cold, wind and rain. Really depressing!!

I think having some tournaments with less than ideal conditions is good for the sport. The real men will adapt.

Stop pretending the weather in the UK is not horrendous in all other months as well.

It goes back a very long way (1899). Andy Murray won his 1st clay title there (2015). He had to wear leather trousers when receiving the trophy!

Stop pretending that it is. When I took early retirement some years ago in April the weather was hot and sunny.

Beautiful surroundings, good camera angle, what's not to like?

Too soon.

And here I thought that snow in April was just a Canadian thing.

It's a tradition that the winners wear the Lederhosen during the trophy presentation.

Zverev not happy with the rainy weather.

The nauseating dirtbag lost in straights today.

The ATP should deny Zedrot both prize money and ranking points under their "lack of effort" rule. They did that against Nick and Gulbis in the past and Abuserev openly announced he was tanking. And people wonder why we #ABZers loathe this tool. The Munich crowd pay good money for their tickets and he tanks because it's raining? Grow a pair.
