- Terrific draw for Mirra. Best section of the whole lot.MrAndreeva22-05-2025
- Which means it's a horror draw for Rybakina/Bencic too.MrAndreeva22-05-2025
- I once threw-up 137 times with a 116 C fever -- and still went fishing.
mandoist22-05-2025 - If true (the back spasms), then consider the possibility her body has been trying to speak to her for a couple years now. Basically telling her she is unable to stand the physical strain and routines of the pro tennis circuit. This cannot be news to anyone.mandoist22-05-2025
- And who, exactly, needs or wants to hear from her?mandoist21-05-2025
- Don't like her... never liked her. She's a condescending (fill in the blank). That said -- WTA is failing the players by allowing these camera operators to hover over, or next to, players -- especially while physio teams are working on their exposed areas, etc., etc., etc. There should be a safe distance rule. Also: let's not forget it was the cameras taking closeups across the court and literally resulting in revealing "upskirt" views (hence the ladies now place a towel between their legs at the bench). This is not a hard choice!mandoist21-05-2025
- Great speech from Sinner! His mother smiling at the joke was top.MrAndreeva18-05-2025
- She should "train a bit more"mandoist16-05-2025
- That would have hurt!! Another cool moment was a sky-high lob when Qinwen shot the ball (mistakenly) straight-up and came within a foot or so of the overhead drone. BTW: Been watching these damn drones at sporting events -- a major accident waiting to happen in crowded venues like tennis courts. Not to mention they are super distracting.mandoist16-05-2025
