Hopefully she makes this her Swan Song tourney cause she's goin out like a drunk aunt, trying to hang with a bunch of girls half her age and it's lowkey embarrassing

So who yall got winning Indian Wells

We've been lambasting Tsitsipas for being a bum for years, but in Dubai he looked a bit back in form so maybe he surprises ppl

WTA been a crapshoot lately but I'm curious to see how deep Penko and Tauson go ... would be a great time for Lenka to get back on the front foot again

The new WTA logo is zero personality.

Slow hardcourts are Novak's worst surface...he just doesn't have the rally tolerance or fh power to win on them.

He can still have deep runs at the AO & probably USO and indoor courts but IW...it's over

Crazy how on the WTA side the top ten seeds are all thru to the third round, while the ATP draw is pure chaos already

Oh Ben... hits a 150 MPH serve.... then misses the fukk out of the smash to get broken

Tsitsipas needs to just go teach yoga or something in India. Just sad.

Glad I didn't pick this as my upset special

Iga victimizes her opponents on the hard court 1000s and then grows a flat top when she gets to Melbourne and New York

Tsitsipas needs to just go teach yoga or something in India. Just sad.

After Dubai it looked like he was coming back in to form but now he's right back looking like he never had the makings of a varsity athlete
