Confirmed Jack - That ankle was already heavily taped.

Tough to see her like that. An incredible week for Bianca.

And a wonderful performance from Ash Barty. Really like her.

Ash plays an incredibly solid and efficient game. Definitely deserving of the #1 spot she's been holding. Hopefully Bianca can continue to grow to be just as good as she is. I think this tournament shows that just as a fun as it is to watch Bi play in dramatic three setters, she needs to be play a more efficient/clutch game to make it more sustainable for her body.

Still, pretty incredible comeback after not really playing much for over a calendar year.

French Sports Minister Roxana Maracineanu said it was possible the French Open could be postponed for the second year amid the COVID-19 crisis.

France entered a third nationwide lockdown on Saturday to contain the coronavirus spread, although professional sports have largely been spared.

Good news from Marbella.

Steven Diez beats Peter Gojowczyk 6-2 6-3 in Q1 of the Andalucia Open.

He will face either Nikola Milojevic or Alessandro Giannessi in the FQR.

Man, Sinner broke Hurkacz and was serving for the opening set at 6-5, gets broken to love and then Hubert takes the opening set tie-breaker rather easily. I certainly wasn't expecting that from the young Italian kid.

/Now watch him win the match in three sets.

Hubert Hurkacz is your champion in Miami with a 7-6(4) 6-4 win over Jannik Sinner. Big day for Polish tennis.

Welp. Not so good news today from Marbella for Diez.

Loses 7-5 6-3 to Milojevic in the FQR of the Andalucia Open. Lost from a 5-3 lead in the 1st set too.

Leylah takes the opening set 6-3. Unfortunately she's not on the tv court so it's just a live scoreboard for viewing today.
