Kolanovic: Tacos aren’t on the menu this time. 🌮
I'm not trying to pick on or shame anyone, but it makes my skin crawl when I see this type of shit, even when it turns out being right, because all it achieves is minimizing the accomplishment... Just stop... It's a competition. Appreciate that. Focus on that.
You know, how about when people write/talk about sport, we avoid the hyperbole and talking about what "will" happen, like it's written in stone.
Maybe all the people saying that a kid is unbeatable need to remember that the Olympics are hard and you should maybe just...not.

There is only one Daniil Medvedev. Tennis would not be able to handle two.

i am BEGGING you before you pop off about paywalls to go to your local library's website and scroll through their digital resources. mine gives me access to NYT, WSJ, WaPo and if its linked with PressReader or a similar app, all the news magazines, sports, fashion, hobby etc.

Not that I disagree that Pegula and Navarro's money hasn't made their success far...FAR more likely, but hilarious that Macci seems to suggest it mattered for THEIR success but not Fonseca's.
For men, it's earned. For women, it's purchased apparently.
Know it's not normally what I post about here, but went to Wicked North American Tour in SLC last week. Only my 3rd theater production, but it's easily becoming my favorite artistic medium . Lauren Samuels and Austen Danielle Bohmer were so incredibly good. Run, don't walk to the theater. . .
Players should read and heed this paragraph by Andrea Petkovic today:

JPMORGAN: “.. Today's US trade and inventory data have prompted us to revise our 1Q US GDP estimate to -1.8%q/q saar––significantly worse than our previous estimate of 0%.” 🇺🇸

Dear Hawk-eye, are you sure? Because it looks like it missed the line by at least a tennis court. 🎾👀 #tennis #atp #wta
Staple this to RFK Jr’s forehead.
JPMORGAN: “.. as of now we maintain our 60% US/Global recession call from last week. The 40% non-recession call includes the possibility of further backpedaling from Trump on China tariffs.”

Okay- I feel like I'm always grumbling about Tennis Channel. To be fair, credit when it is due. Nothing better that Chanda, Courier, and middle rounds of Miami this Sunday afternoon. 👍
As all of my followers here should already know well, Courtney is the very best, and the WTA and its players were so, so damn lucky to have her for a decade.
On to the next.
I will die on my own person hill, shouting about how good Bertens was playing spring of 19' and how unfair her viral illness that RG was- robbing her/all of us of what could've been a great run. . . One that could have/should have been
Good reporting from @cdeccleshare.bsky.social and Matt Futterman. But I feel physically sick reading this. So so sad. All of our worst fears confirmed.
But full credit to Portia Archer for doing what's right
The USTA's choice to turn the U.S. Open mixed doubles draw into an exhibition sideshow the week before the main draw begins is absolutely infuriating and demeaning to tennis players and fans alike. 🎾
Pretty terrible scene in Lille where Lucas Pouille was taken off the court in a wheelchair while leading 5-3 in the 2nd set of the final.
In the trophy ceremony, Pouille said he'll go for tests but fears it's an achilles rupture. If so, he said it's likely his final match.

I have to take a deep, slow breath when I think about Canada+Cincy being 3 weeks and the US Open starting on a Sunday.
