The most positive thing in my eyes is that tennis looks like it is in good hands with guys like Rune, Alcaraz, Ruud, and Felix for the foreseeable future. The "older" guys like Tsitsipas and Medvedev will have something to say about these younger guys as well lol

Stan should have won that opening round match against Holger as well...

Sabalenka just ended Iga's season in Fort Worth by winning the 3rd set 6-1 after Iga won set 2 6-2. Very strange match as the set scores were 6-2 2-6 6-1.

A well earned rest before gearing things up again for the ATP finals in Turin and then Davis Cup.

Also, what a season for Iga, 8 titles and 67 wins, that's crazy good.

Weird to me that Holger Rune isn't in the next gen ATP finals. I guess he didn't want to go, maybe.

Most likely that's the case, although if somebody pulls out of the ATP finals in Turin, Rune is in as first alternate. Rafa says he is going to try to play, but that's still up in the air.

I really don't know how much there is to this Djokovic 'magic potion' story, but his team aren't doing him any favors when they're going to this extreme to hide things.

It's probably nothing, just looks bad. You would have to be really dumb to dope in plain view of everyone

Why is that even allowed? Players should keep all the food and drink they need in their bags or any fridge the venue provides at courtside.

Disappointing to see the withdrawal's at the Calgary Challenger this week. This field is definitely one of the most underwhelming from a rankings perspective that we have had.

Looking forward to seeing the tennis this week nonetheless, and having the women here as well is a big plus.

I wonder if the weather had anything to do with it.

Keep an eye on Gabriel Diallo (he's tough to miss as he's 6'7" tall), he won his opening round match yesterday and has won a challenger event in 2022 and lost a final just a few weeks ago. Alexis Galarneau is also one to watch and of course Vasek play later today.

Calgarian Cleeve Harper won his first match!

Koepfer is someone that I still think has the ability to get back to the top 50 as well and could end up winning this event. He's certainly not a player who you want to miss if you are attending either.
