Ostapenko eliminates Rogers in three sets - Shelby didn't have near the quality tonight that she did against Leylah.

Medvedev and Hurkacz on back-to-back days is very impressive considering how good those guys have been in 2021.

I can only comment on singles since that's mostly what I watch, but for me the bar would generally be either 1 slam and #1 rank, or 2 slams. so using that criteria, current WTA players getting in would include (off the top of my head) Osaka, Barty, Kvitova, Halep, Kerber, Azarenka, Muguruza. but Thiem, Cilic and Medvedev don't make the cut yet. does that sound right?

So with Basilashvili taking out Greek Yogurt in three sets, we have a possibility of a IW semi-final featuring two guys dodging domestic abuse allegations. All that needs to happen is for Zverev to send Fritz packing.

Fritz is playing some incredible tennis and has forced a 3rd and deciding set.

No better way to start the weekend then watching a Zverev collapse in a final set. Fritz was down 2-5 and wins set 3 in a tie-break 7-3.

It hurts because either Felix or Shapo (or possibly both) could have made a deep run...

This women's final between Badosa and Azarenka has been all kinds of good...

Edit: Vika breaks and is serving for the championship at 5-4 in set 3.

Edit 2: WTA TV has gone down, but Badosa breaks to stay in the match at 5-5

Paula Badosa is your IW ladies champion in a little over 3 hours 7-6 2-6 7-6. Vika was up 30-love at 5-4 in set 3 and could not seal the deal.

Cam Norrie has had a fantastic 2021 and you can add a Masters 1000 crown to his trophy case.

Drake's new song has a shout out to Rafa, almost fell out my chair when I heard it

"2.2 for the Rafael Nadal" , he's referencing Nadal's on court watch that Drake spent $2.2 mill to buy.

I ain't heard any singers reference Novak or Roger I think we know who's the most influential
