Tennis #6 🎾

I love him - in a world filled with toxic masculinity he's such a good role model.

Off topic but L'Equipe (the main magazine about sport in France) refused to put Zverev on their cover

Katie Boulter just beat Elena Rybakina in the quarter finals at Queen's. She played some absolutely brilliant tennis.

Stan the Man! Amazing!

Alcaraz has withdrawn from Queens and Wimbledon.

I’m glad I didn’t pay to watch this - from the sounds of it, there are two exhausted men stumbling around and liberally scattering errors all over the place.

They didn't play like 2 exhausted men stumbling around, so if that's what the radio said, I must have been watching a different match!

Just putting this out there: in the event that the abusive knobhead wins, we all agree that it doesn't count, right? Because this tournament took place in an alternate reality where 99% of the men's field were absent, so it's just a weird blip.

Though if (and by 'if', I of course mean WHEN) Flavio wins, that totally counts.

I know I’m in a minority here - but I am a huge fan of Djokovic.

I think many of us have a complicated opinion of Djokovic. I'm certainly not binary on him but have a lot of respect for all he's accomplished.

I've lost count of the amount of times I've been routing for him in the last year or so. Another well deserved win

Also, with Castle getting the push, we won't be subjected to his views on the American college system every five minutes. I KNOW that Norrie went to TCU, you've told us a million times!

 

[veronica71]

He’s just such an amazing role model as well as a brilliant tennis player and it’s all just so authentic

 

[londongirl2001]

I never ever again want to hear anything about him being a party boy who needs to focus more on tennis. I still hate how Ferrero himself pushed this narrative in that documentary and the media picked it up and ran with it since then. What more do they want from this boy?? Even if he retired today, he’d still be one of the best ever; with all the records he’s broken in a mere few years!

*Prayer circle for Flavio Cobolli*

 

[veronica71]

It’s really given Francis feelings

 

[KittyScherbatsky]

Zverev was beaten in Rome today, very satisfying.

The last few points of that tiebreak! OMG.

Who would have thought after the first set that we'd be here?

Come on, Flavio!

Best thing about not being able to watch the night matches is I can pretend Zverev isn’t in the tournament
