That was pretty shocking to watch Rybakina is no joke and she made her look like childs play at 17.

I think i'm a fan!

Tommy Paul is like a poor man's Meddy and the real Medvedev showed who was boss last night.

I was in and out of the match and caught up on some highlights earlier today and Mirra played great, but to me Rybakina just appeared to give up on several rallies. There were several balls to my eyes that were certainly within reach that she just decided not to go after.

If you ask me who is going to win more majors between Coco Gauff and Mirra Andreeva (Coco already has one stashed away), I would have to say Andreeva. That forehand of Coco's just breaks down at the most critical times.

My thoughts on the recently concluded Cerundolo vs De Minaur match.

Cerundolo: I can easily outsuck you. Hitting ridiculous UEs is my typical MO.

22W 39UE

De Minaur: Hold my beer...

9W 39UE

What a shat show from both.

Jack Draper just now eliminates Taylor Fritz in straight sets. He is playing some excellent tennis in 2025.

Tough conditions tonight, but Charlie was sailing in the desert breeze sending two breadsticks to Dimitrov.

My head says Iga, but I wouldn't mind being wrong...

Fils should have won that match, up a break midway through the 3rd set, but he failed to close it out and then Arthur missed a volley on match point for Meddy in the 3rd set tie-break.

The other women's semi-final is a rematch of the Aussie Open final. Does Aryna get some revenge later today or does Madison Keys make it two straight wins over the world #1?

Wowza, what a performance from Mirra Andreeva, after winning a close 1st set and then getting bread-sticked in set 2, she regained her composure and defeated Iga 7-6 1-6 6-3. Great stuff from the 17 year old.

Rune takes the opening set 7-5 over Meddy. Very cool and composed performance from Holger thus far, hope it continues.

Great match from Holger today winning 7-5 6-4 and he awaits the winner of Charlie vs. Jack.

Jack just bread-sticked Charlie in 23 minutes.

Edit: So Charlie sends a bagel back to Jack in set 2.

Sabalenka takes the opening set 6-2. Mirra looks a little overwhelmed out there at the moment, but Aryna is playing very well. Really impressive with the court coverage that Sabalenka has, she'll never be an Iga type mover, but for as tall as she is, she gets to a lot of balls.
