On another note, some people on tennis twitter (mainly people without the blue check mark) seem to think it's funny to make up quotes and attribute them to certain players to stir the pot. Not sure it's going to get any better (it will likely get worse) now that Elon Musk has purchased Twitter.

Felix will face a familiar opponent on Wednesday at the Estoril Open in Carlos Taberner as the two played each other last week in Barcelona.

Edit: I thought Felix was going to play on Wednesday, but it appears to be Thursday.

Now hearing that Schwartzman has pulled out of the Estoril Open citing fatigue and will be replaced by Fernando Verdasco.

Canada into the group of death along with Spain, Serbia, and South Korea as far as the Davis Cup draw is concerned.

Another tough loss for Dominic Thiem today as he falls to Benjamin Bonzi 6-3 7-6(9). The forehand is where the unforced errors are cropping up, serve and backhand look fine to me.

Another nice exchange with an umpire this time on the Challenger tour:

Nice win for Alexis over former two-time Aussie Open quarter-finalist Tennys Sandgren.

It makes me wonder if the ATP suspension hanging over the Fraud's head is impacting his play as he knows if he lashes out like he has in the past that he's gone for two months. Not good to keep all that rage bottled up lol

Iga has withdrawn from Madrid and Leylah is the beneficiary as she moves into Iga's spot in the draw...

Quite possibly, but I really think it's mainly the case of a player who hasn't done anything to make himself more dynamic or unpredictable on court. He also still has yet to find a serve or net game that will hold up in pressure moments of big events.

This is unforgivable from Federer! To not know who Dolly Parton is, it's unforgivable
