The New and Improved Tennis Thread

On mute here so I missed everything that happened. I could see it as I looked up but had no clue what the hell was going on. Bublik looked more upset than Rublev at one point.

 

Currently out-Medvedev'ing Medvedev. Quite impressive.

 

Always thought Humbert looked promising as a youngster. Then he hung with Paire.

 

What?

 

What if you just don’t scream at linespeople in the first place. Problem solved.

 

It wasn't a great look. I'd expect that kind of lunacy from... someone else.

 

It’s okay, he lost it. That’s the punishment. I still love the guy, but you can’t do that shit lol. I was more shocked that Fokinas tweet got 2k likes than him having a dumb take. Guess that’s a testament to Rublev being loved.

 

I tried to fade Ugo like 3 times in Dubai. 0/10 do not recommend.

The Jordan of French Tennis?

 

just put it on . Is this the first live sporting event Netflix has done?

 

Insane

 

Ehn. 12 months ago they might have been big matches, but both Collins & Badosa have dropped off the pace a bit.

 

I don’t think either are healthy.

 

Alright then.

 

Wtf?

 

As a Halep fan who thought she was being shafted, this is great news.

 

Rafa out of IW

 

It's testing the memory, but Capriati's father was regarded as one of the 'bad tennis dads' back in the day. Not necessarily at Tomic levels, but still not a great guy.

Interesting that Capriati should come to his defence so passionately all these years later.

 

Very bummed about this. Got my Indian Wells resident tix for tomorrow night and was pumped to see Rafa. Should still be great, but not the same ...

 

Overnight tennis rain delays piss me off so much.
The amount of bets I lose when my player is ahead then falls apart after a 16 hour delay is so annoying. Probably should just cash out Lajovic +200 at a criminal price.

Andy Murray blowing a 2-1 lead vs Stef at Wimbledon last year after a curfew postponement still triggers me.

 

Wonder how many times Tennis channel thinks Eubanks Nakashima is worth showing? Has to be the fifth time I’ve turned the TV on and it’s playing.

 

Courts do seem quite a bit faster at IW judging off this match.

 

Haven’t seen much on it but just me or is T2 horrible? Interviews are way too long, no one cares, and it’s mostly talking over a match. I am tuning in because whatever on the primary is garbage, but this is somehow worse. Anything good on here?

 

Still remarkable how much her game and world ranking improved post boob reduction ...

 

Netflix canceled breakpoint, not sure they could have made it worse.

 

It was horrible.

 

Yes, a chick. Everybody at IW was making that joke ...

 

Really nice win for Naomi. Rounding into form quite impressively.

 

Sabalenka drops the first set to Peyton Stearns in a TB.

 

This match is incredible.
