I just flipped over, but he's looking very sharp...best of this clay season, but that's not saying a lot. But, like, MUCH better.

True enuf! Not sure, but IMO I think Djokovic's laboring! He def. Fucsovics quite comfortably, but he's no threat like some others players!

BTW,
Nishikori decided to withdraw ahead of his suspended match against KK in Geneva
Match was suspended against KK yesterday due to rain, the match was scheduled to start after Fritz v Halys
KAA - Nishikori 75 25.

All relative really since Marton only plays tennis for the fucks of it.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Djokovic will face Matteo Arnaldi, who beat him recently in Madrid in the QFs.On his birthday!
Arnaldi reaches the Geneva QFs his 8th career ATP tour QF and the 4th in 2025

 

[Front242]

Not that he's ever done much at the slams but I'm disappointed Tabilo is out of Roland Garros as he's great to watch on clay imo.

It is getting awfully difficult not to root against Zverev.

You're late. You're just now seeing what the rest of us already acknowledged way back yonder.

 

[kskate2]

Glad dangerous lost. Should have never traveled there in the 1st place. Hopefully he'll learn to manage his schedule better and get away from that journeyman mindset.

As for Zed, this was my point when I brought it up the other day. What good is it to take a WC to play at home in some forced attempt to feel better about your game. If you don't go all the way, you're not feel better anyhow. If you do go all the way, now you're gassed when you show up to RG and you have finalist points to defend. Just major silliness either way.

If he shaved off that godawful man bun maybe he might have a Samson moment and get better.

BTW,
Reports coming out from many media outlets yesterday that Carlos Moya would be coaching Jannik Sinner in 2026 ( Cahill is retiring from coaching at the end of 2025)
Moya told Radio Nacional de Espana yesrerday, the reports of him coaching Sinner were "Fake News" and did not give any indication that it was something he might be open to in the future.
Rumors started to spread when Ricardo Piatti was asked, Jannik went to his academy when he was 14 yo, who would be a good coach for Jannik when Cahill steps down, one of the coaches Piatti suggested was Carlos Moya.

Apparently, somebody needs to tell TTC to fact check before they put something on blast.

Agree, I could not see Jannik announcing a new coach for 2026 in May quite frankly.he will probably announce his new coach later in the year.if he does or maybe early in the new year in 2026.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Just a reminder that the Roland Garros draw will be made tomorrow Thursday 22nd May at 2pm local time
The draw broadcast will be live on the Roland Garros You Tube Channel.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Machac retired in his match against Cameron Norrie he was up a break in the final set, got broken? then retired in Geneva

KAA (4) vs Ofner Q
Fritz (1) vs Hurkacz (6)
Djokovic (2) vs Arnaldi (8)
Popyrin (5) vs Norrie

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Hmm 8th retirement or walkover for Machac since the USO last year,, happening way too much for at this point for a player of his capability, or on the other hand he might be saving himself for RG, whatever the niggling injury was, he was last years finalist in Geneva

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I must say the new Pope Leo isnt afraid of posting on X, he is very articulate and to the point
Fun Fact he loves Aussie Tim Tams, a chocolate biscuit with different fillings, a man after my own heart
I wonder if I can pick up a new pair of rosary beads blessed by the new Pope Leo, in Rome, for future games when my favorites are doing my 'head in'

You're late. You're just now seeing what the rest of us already acknowledged way back yonder.

I've been known to be over-generous in my interpretation of people and naively given them the benefit of the doubt (see, "ex-wife").
