It’s honestly so messy. But one thing about European sports when it comes to inter country battle, that shit is ALWAYS messy
Was going to post the same thing this morning. I don't even understand the point, the pay outs are comical as well.
I know most of you don't follow much after the US Open But I got to let you know of this run Rebecca Sramkova is on 27 years old right now, Career High of 61 Lost in 2nd Round of Qualifying for US Open She made the trip to the WTA 250 in Monastir, Tunisia. Made the finals losing to Sony Kartal The finals was on 9/15 at 11:00 AM ET. 2 hour finals. Probably had got out of the tournament around 3 PM ET. Flew to Hua Hin, Thailand. 18 hour trip with connections. Played her first round match at 9/17 9:20 AM ET. So basically with 42 hours, just lost a finals (HER FIRST EVER WTA TOUR FINALS) with a full day of travel and gets to Thailand WINS THE HUA HIN TOURNAMENT FOR HER FIRST EVER WTA TOUR TITLE The final was on 9/22 at 5 AM ET. 2 Hour match. 5 HOUR FLIGHT TO BEIJING Played First Round Qualifying match today at 3:30 AM ET and won that.
Cilic is back! Played 2 Challenger warm up tournaments where he did not look good at all. Goes to China and gets the 250 title
Yeah but she is out of the grind. New grind now, but she will get paid at least and not have a schedule like that.
Yeah the great thing for her, she has a nice 12 month run now. 413 of her 956 points are the last 2 weeks. So not much points to defend for 11 months for her
Plus her Career Earnings 2024 - $390,869 YTD - $1,136,761 35% of her career money this year alone. The last 15 days is life changing to her
Tournament is on at the worst possible time for me. I don’t know how long the matches go in the morning.
Berrettini with the classic strategy of winning 1st set TB vs Fils then promptly retiring before set 2.
Okay the biggest story of 2024 might be Shaui Zhang. After losing 24 straight matches has now won 4 in a row and in the quarterfinals
