Well I guess I’ll write about tennis on here too. Why not?

The shot quality in this women’s tournament especially with the last 4 Anisimova, Sabalenka, Osaka, Pegula… off the roof!

Caught some ATP Challenger action today; it’s surprising everytime to see live the level players outside top-200/top-300 can produce. Molcan and Shelbayh put on a show.

Such an amazing US Open womens semis line-up, I hate that it happens in the middle of the night in European time

This is what I thought the Wimbledon final would be like. Amazing level and intensity in rallies from both players

Double bagel averted ✅ Let’s go AA!

Carlitos into the semis of the US Open. Has dropped serve *once* across five matches (faced 8 break points only) 🤯

"Polish CEO apologizes for snatching Kamil Majchrzak’s hat away from child at U.S. Open"

The things that happen around our sport... seriously 😂

The level Krejcikova found when down match point was just absurd 😂🚀 She saved eight!!!

Match points: 5 winners (incl. a crazy volley winner, a return winner, a backhand down the line that painted the line), 1 service winner, 1 approach shot where she forced an error and 1 unforced from TT

Venus playing some amazing tennis with Leylah right now. Love to see it, inspiring

Caro 🥲

Great crowd support for Eala against Tauson at the #USOpen.

Can we get a match between Eala and Haddad Maia too? Now, no crowd could match that

This Gomez-Grenier US Open qualifying match is everything. So much drama in one tiebreaker
Nothing like a Grand Slam qualifying week

Backhand down the line worked wonders for Osaka today - not that Sevastova tested her, but still. Also did she ever move better than she does nowadays?

I can listen to Agassi commentate at every tournament

Gabriel Diallo looking fire

2-week ATP/WTA Masters (1000 events) are horrible. They do no one other than TV right holders any good. Fans are bored, players hate it, spectators are robbed (vs old format).

Nothing new here, just wanted to add a drop in the ocean in case ATP is looking for any consumer insight (no one cared)

Sabalenka wins Madrid and jokes about her team in her speech. Sad day for Stubbs.

Draper v Musetti is so entertaining. They are both playing every shot in the book. #MutuaMadridOpen

Another day where while trying to stay calm I played slow and lost a set 😌

Mirra pulling a Snoop Dogg in the Dubai trophy ceremony thanking herself. I like it 😁

In a world where you can tell your player/partner their success doesn’t define them or where you can get a tattoo of their success, be a Bjorn

The air outside is as crisp as an Anisimova volley 😮‍💨
