lol - Let's wait and see what happens, but he looks incredible on the dirt. After Rafa and Tsitsipas, I wouldn't be surprised to see him installed as 3rd favourite by the bookies at Roland Garros.

So Reilly Opelka's last five sets in Delray Beach all went to tie-breaks - He won two out of three tie-breaks against John Millman in the semi-finals, but lost two tie-breaks against Cam Norrie in the final.

Felix pulls out of Dubai with a bad back, he's played a lot of tennis over the last couple of weeks, hopefully it's just something minor.

It makes sense for Felix to pull out with two deep runs in back to back tournaments. With the US Masters 1000 events coming up I'm sure he's going to prioritize them.
Also looks like Medvedev is currently world #1, but that could change depending on this week and how both him and Djokovic do.

Yeah because it's not like Azarenka has pulled that same #### multiple times.

Reilly Opelka has withdrawn from Acapulco (he like Felix has played a lot of tennis over the last couple of weeks) which means that Rafa will now face Dennis Kudla in round 1.

Chad Alcarez has entered the chat, now waiting for FAA response
not bad kid, but you've still got a long way to go before you can challenge Andy "Battleship" Roddick

finally got around to watching this, and I have zero memory of it ever happening even though around this time I would have been obsessed with tennis gear. it's almost like a Berenstein Bears level cover-up, or someone used the MiB neuralyzer on the entire tennis community.

If it was me I would strongly consider a 1000 only event schedule from now and leading up to Roland Garros to keep him fresh and healthy for the big title events.

Wow, Shapo comes back from a set down and finds a way to oust Fucsovics 4-6 6-4 7-5. It was a spirited fight from Denis today, great to see.

Not actually striking the umpire will probably be his saving grace from a long suspension. I imagine at most he gets the two Murica events off and that's it.
