And there’s your replacement for John in 2029

Life Is Beautiful. It was too good for me to ever watch again.

Big Venus rollout in Lulu?

Rhode Island’s Finest ✅

Arizona Challenger cutoff is 79. Crazytown

that’s good info. Solid, amusing mistake by someone.

Cray. Tiafoe getting checked for too many logos

it came through the tv that way too. Crazy level.

yeah i’ve known Sven for decades, he had a special relationship with Mark McCormack and he’s been an IMG go-to coach for decades. i was personally disappointed it didn’t work out with Andreescu.

Insane she only has 2 titles- would have guessed 12.

Pretty interesting Sven on the bag. 💼

Spot on. Crazy how Mboko steps so far into the court on 2nd serve return. Maximum disrespect. Fearless.

Watching the Swedes win cross country skiing medals makes me nostalgic for all the great years of Swedish tennis. That’s an underreported sports tragedy. From tiny country powerhouse to nowhereland.

Sam Querrey has become an elite broadcaster extremely quickly. Good voice, expert analysis, hits his points, hits his beats extremely nicely, has a nice cadence, has gotten adept at doing his homework, comes prepared, dresses well, is current, knows his craft. good in the studio.

Reliable sources have told me Johnny Mac’s ESPN contract ends at the end of 2028, and he’ll likely shut it down after that, capping a prolific 35 year career on the mic 🎤. Whatever you think about him there hasn’t been a more important, famous, known person in tennis history.

Woof that shuts the door on the Ferrero chatter huh.

By the way great job @AustralianOpen with your trophy presentation. No nonsense, no stupid awkward interviews or idiotic speeches. All the other majors, and every tournament for that matter please make note.

Woof. What a turn of events

Watching the @RobKoenigTennis broadcast i think with Wally Masur of the Vamos Zverev 5th set and it’s a much better broadcast all around than the ESPN broadcast. Robbie pure gold, Wally in his lane, and the audio mix is better. hmm.

Million bucks

Gotta say @malika_andrews and @chris_eubanks96 are excellent, great chemistry, Andrews impressive on this maiden voyage, Banks pitch perfect mix of punchy color and salient analysis. ✅

Have some compassion man, he clearly struggles with his name. Everyone has something. Mac can’t pronounce Zverev.

Biggest story at the Aussie, Jennifer Capriati is on property. I can’t remember the last time we’ve seen her anywhere of note.

Hear Hear.

Weird tournament huh. Seems like the tours are still overcooked/tired.

Australian Open: Jessica Pegula and Iga Swiatek call for more privacy and less cameras at the Australian Open Jessica Pegula and Iga Swiatek echo Coco Gauff's concerns over the use of cameras away from the court at the Australian Open, insisting more privacy is needed for all players competing.

Gotta think it’s time for Anisimova to make some changes to her team. She needs a pro in there that can help her get the 5 majors minimum she should have when her career is over. Her team seems to be in over their heads, not a second week of a major performance in either match.
