All Aboard the Kenin Coaster!

You never know what you're going to get with Sofia Kenin.

Back in October, she defeated #10 Ekaterina Alexandrova and pushed Belinda Bencic to 3 sets... then lost 6-1, 6-2 to #156 Himeno Sakatsume three days later.

She battles past qualifier Elena-Gabriela Ruse.

It's Tien O'clock

Last year was technically Learner Tien's third year playing ATP events.

But it's definitely the American's sophomore season as a true "big deal" up-and-comer.

Tien handles the expectations nicely, getting past Camilo Ugo Carabelli, 7-6⁴, 6-3, in Brisbane.

Friendly Fired Up

Eva Lys listed Suzan Lamens as one of her best friends on the tour when I interviewed her back in 2022.

Four years and nearly 150 ranking spots later, the German #1 gets her first win of 2026 against the Dutchwoman, cruising to the 6-2, 6-2 victory in Sydney.

Been watching classic tennis matches, and the old system of challenging after the call is sooo annoying compared with Hawk-Eye Live

An important point about A.I. writing, not to be lost, is that no one enjoys reading it.
ChatGPT’s signature writing style is everywhere now, and I hate it. It reminds me of when we tried mixing all the beverages at the soda fountain in middle school. We didn’t actually create the perfect drink, we just made a cloying monstrosity that lost everything good about its constituent parts.

So I made a tennis Substack to complement my Judaism Substack, but now I don’t know where to put my Maimonidean reading of Roger Federer
