Move to Ohio.

Imagine not playing a weekend team EXHIBITION and then actually playing a Masters 1000.

The tennis calendar is too long..... But for the right price you can have exhibitions every day in December.

Sharapova always has and always will be trolling her fans. AKA me.

For the record, I texted my thoughts.

Dial 1-900-MIXALOT Jogging is the worst, Chris.

I asked Jan Zielinsky, who won mixed twice last year with Su Wei, how he feels about the fact that the winner of this year’s USO mixed will have an equivalent title. Also asked Taylor Townsend how she would respond to the critics

How about the overlap between Cincy and us open? My friends want to attend fan week and us open mixed doubles. Meanwhile I can't go because I'm driving home from the Midwest. Players and press aren't the only people trying to follow the tour.

I don't think tennis will ever go back to one week 1000s. They have already figured out they can exploit everyone involved and make mad cash doing so. It's too late.

I think they got this plot idea from AI.

I kind of want the OG team McCoco back.

I'm left wondering if I will even know any players in the ATP Toronto draw.

Tennis player who's estimated worth is $95 mil. wants cheaper health insurance. America.

Found this on Ginger Rogers Wikipedia. Is this for real? Did she actually play mixed doubles at 1950 us open?

I'm hearing that Bill Ackman will be playing doubles next week with Jack Sock at the Newport Challenger.

People ripping on Sabalenka for having an honest reaction in front of press. And post match it's interesting the takes like it was always good vs evil. Both players are great tennis athletes. Both are humans. I appreciate both. I like honest reactions.

CBA announces former star Brian Lynch as its new basketball coach - Shore Sports Insider Brian Lynch has become just the fourth head coach in CBA basketball's illustrious history after leaving a St. Rose program he built into a state power.

@benrothenberg.bsky.social interesting Lynch family development at NJ Shore. Brian Lynch accepted a position at Christian Bros Academy, where he is an alumni. He will NOT be coaching daughter Jada during her senior year. CBA is an all boys private school $$.

It's interesting Sinner was given the ability to negotiate this timing so he looks like a hero at home. Personally I don't expect him to have rust or any qualms today. But who can see the future? Not me.

Best in Class Why the Porsche Grand Prix in Stuttgart races past the competition at the varied 500 level of the tennis tours.
