Andreescu and Stubbs praise Hurkacz for apologizing to Kokkinakis and his box after defeating him: “The cutest and nicest dude on tour”
ATP
Hubert Hurkacz is widely known as one of the nicest people on the tennis Tour and he proved it once more with a sweet gesture following his win over Thanasi Kokkinakis.
Kokkinakis and Hurkacz battled for a long time with the Polish player ending up as the winner in three sets. It didn't come easy and it featured a bit of lucky because Kokkinakis failed to finish off the match despite having 5 match points. The quality of the match caught the attention of several including Rennae Stubbs and Bianca Andreescu who said on Twitter:
"This match between @TKokkinakis and @HubertHurkacz is fantastic."
She further added:
"And Both such nice guys! I mean @HubertHurkacz looked at @TKokkinakis coach and said I’m sorry!!! Because he won and felt bad for them!!! I mean honestly! If he doesn’t win the award for nicest player on tour i don’t know who should."
Hurkacz indeed apoligzed to the box of Kokkinakis and that was caugh by Andreescu too. She wrote:
"The way Hubi apologized to Kokkinakis box aww."
Stubbs responded to her:
"Omg i can’t believe that either!!!! I mean if he’s not the cutest & nicest dude on tour, i don’t know who is!."

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
