Woes for top ten ATP players as four go out in the space of 24 hours at Cincinnati Open
ATPThursday, 17 August 2023 at 10:00
Top ATP players continue to struggle in the ongoing
Cincinnati Open (Western & Southern Open).
Denmark’s Holger Rune because the latest big-name player to
go out of the tournament after retiring during his round-of-32 clash against Mackenzie
McDonald.
The American tennis star won the first set with a score of
6-4 and was leading the second (4-2) when the game was called off during Rune’s injury.
The 20-year-old is the fourth player in the ATP top-10 rankings
to go out of the competition.
Russia’s Andrey Rublev lost to Finland’s Emil Ruusuvuori in
the second-round fixture with a score of 7-6, 5-7, 7-6.
Italy’s highly-rated Jannik Sinner also lost to Croatia’s Dusan
Lajovic in straight sets with a score of 6-4, 7-6.
Last year’s US Open finalist Norway’s Casper Ruud suffered a
defeat against Australia’s Max Purcell with a score of 6-4, 3-6, 6-4.
These results will be devastating ones for all the big-name
players, especially ahead of the US Open as each of them would’ve wanted a
longer run in order to get prepared for the mega-event.
The fourth and final Grand Slam of the year is set to begin
in less than 15 days’ time where players from all over the world will showcase
their talent.

- Condescending Collins also tried to justify her personal problems and iiotic personal attacks by claiming some mythical "locker room" situation(s). FYI: Most (all?) pro venues do not have open space 'locker rooms'. It ain't high school gyms where these women are in close personal contact.

- Too close to bigotry for you to call her snotty remarks (in public) "her perspective". It's one thing to not like one another, but there is no basis for what Navarro claimed about "the locker room" and "other players".mandoist05-09-2024
