Another quick one. That was some turnaround from Sebi Korda. From a break down in the first to winning in straights against Frances Tiafoe. He didn’t have a great Aus Open but since the San Diego challenger is playing well.

Taylor Fritz wasting no time today against Brandon Nakashima. Some of those games were about a minute long. Probably best for him. This is when I usually dip but staying for the 2nd night match. Tiafoe v Korda up next.

From Marin Cilic notching his 600th win, a BOSS take over and Ben Shelton telling us how his vlog was born Day 2 at the Dallas Open delivered in spades. Also it was cold and rainy all day and matches kept going…
Could get used to this indoor life.

Tommy Paul comes through a tough one against Brooksby. They always seem to have tough ones including at this tournament last year which Paul won as well.
Anyway, the people just want to know how @blairhenley.bsky.social has such great hair (and outfits!) all the time. Drop the deets Blair!

First match on center court going the distance. Deciding set tiebreak coming up between Tommy Paul and Jenson Brooksby

Ethan Quinn def wildcard Trevor Svajda in his fist round match at the Dallas Open. It’s been a long run for him from the Australian Open to Davis Cup in Hungary and now here. Gets Cilic next.

Just a bit of pre-match court de-fluffing at the Dallas Open 😅
February 11, 2026 at 5:39 PM
Got to sit down and chat with the boys of Off Season and talk about that Australian Open. It was great catching up with Eliot Spizzirri and Ethan Quinn. Will be following them through the Spring Swing. Stay tuned 😉

Took me two days to get through this episode of Served but I was today years old when I nailed the differences between string tension. I will probably re-listen in all honesty. Roddick and Eubanks fully nerd out.

What an incredible match to start the day with. Victoria Mboko def Mirra Andreeva to make it to the quarterfinals in Doha. Two young teens going to battle. The season of the WTA Next Gen continues.
February 11, 2026 at 2:24 PM
Up early to catch up on work and that means I can catch up on all the other tournaments happening around the world, Stan the Man doing things, Tsitsipas back on court and the battle of the teens Mboko v Andreeva. Lots of great tennis this morning ☕️x🎾

Ground Pass friends in the wild 🙌🏾
It’s a marathon. Not a sprint. Pleasuring seeing you!!!

Good Night. Going to catch up on the rest of the matches on tv. The US Spring Swing is long and we can’t get burnt out at the first tournament. As always updates will be on our Substack and YouTube. And you can follow us on instagram for the views from the grounds ✌🏾

Boss going all out with the headband branding. Everyone here for the Night session to watch Taylor Fritz v Marcos Giron has one.

Am I on the ON website looking for this tracksuit set Ben Shelton is wearing here. Maybe, probably.
Daily updates and player interviews from the Dallas Open will be on our Substack.

After a couple of long day session matches, Ben Shelton closes it out quick against Gabriel Diallo.
Night session still looks to start on time & the night session crowd will start coming in now. Which is great because it’s raining. Great thing about indoor tournaments.

Outstanding performance from Jack Pinnington Jones to beat Flávio Cobolli (who to be fair is not playing well lately). That was solid from Jones. Into the 2nd round in Dallas

Marin Cilic gets the win against Learner Tien. A little fight back from Tien in the 2nd set but Cilic gets it in a tiebreak in the 2nd. And it’s his 600th win. Nice start to the day feels like it might be a long one.

TL:DR our favourite tournament last year keeps raising the bar.

This is the WTA, folks

The Veteran Cilic takes the first set against Learner Tien. He has a nice pocket of support in the middle of a crowd mostly here to support the local. Will say since the last time I watched Tien play in person his serve is much improved. So many aces.

First match of our first full day is up and running Dallas Open Marin Cilic v Learner Tien. This is center court and the crowd is filtering in. We are onsite for a few days so hit us up with all your questions about the tournament.
