If reports are true that Aryna Sabalenka will play in Miami (but won’t give any press conferences), then I cannot stress enough how courageous that is. To be going through hell and still step on the court... She deserves all the respect and privacy we can give her ❤️
#MiamiOpen
Completely disrespectful and honestly pathetic the way Novak Djoković celebrated that win over Ben Shelton. The kid is 20 years old in a first major semifinal.
Wouldn’t see Rafa/Roger/Murray do that, and I doubt we’ll see Carlitos ever do it either.
Iga Świątek 🇵🇱 is named the 2022 European Sportsperson of the year! 🏆

Actually really gutted and quite concerned for Elena Rybakina… 🇰🇿
Whatever this recurring issue is, it’s really hampering her from being consistently at the back end of tournaments, and that’s a huge shame for the women’s game. She’s one of my favourite to watch when she’s on 🙏

Iga Świątek 🇵🇱 and Hubi Hurkacz 🇵🇱 enjoying some Aussie waves ahead of the United Cup.
It seems Hubi surfs in the same ‘no look’ way he hits a tennis ball 🧐
I do not excuse Rublev’s conduct today. He’s such a good person, but yelling in the line judge’s face was out of line.
HOWEVER (deep breath…)
He will now lose his spot in the top 5 to a man who has committed DOMESTIC VIOLENCE against 2 women.
That is the travesty here.

Andy Murray has given SO much to this sport, and has changed British tennis. The mental and physical strength he’s shown to come back from hip surgery and still play the game competitively, is quite frankly, astounding.
Carry on as long as you can and want to Andy ❤️
Tarnishing my legacy? Do me a favour. I’m in a terrible moment right now I’ll give you that. Most people would quit and give up in my situation right now. But I’m not most people and my mind works differently. I won’t quit. I will keep fighting and working to produce the

Iga Świątek 🇵🇱 goes 2 from 2!
A tough match for both with the windy conditions. After dishing out a bagel in the opening set, Iga found herself down a break in the second. But 4 double faults from Gauff serving for the set let Iga back in… 6-0, 7-5.

Here’s the video from what happened earlier… there needs to be repercussions for Toth, and I really do wish Zhang Shuai so well with everything that she’s going through 😔
#WTABudapest
Shocking scenes in Budapest:
Facing a local player, Zhang Shuai got robbed in a mark at 5-5, complained about the situation, was ignored and then booed. Retired minutes later with a panick attack — she admitted some mental health concerns recently.
Well that’s a second Porsche for Iga…
Not bad for some, eh? 😅
Saba: “Can we make a deal, if I get another final I just get an extra car?” 🤣
Since Roland Garros 2020, Iga’s lost exactly 3 matches on clay. Unreal.

This is shocking… Yes, the equal pay in Madrid is great, but there are still some serious issues with the tournament, and not allowing the women’s doubles finalists to speak just adds to it. Not to mention model ball girls and 1am matches (and let’s not forget cake gate 😬)
