As The World Turns Discussion Thread
I watched bits and pieces of the first episode. I need to check it out again with Bryce in it. As for Agim....he was just an average actor but better than what's out there now. I have to say his pairing with Peyton List was horrendous. It bought the worst in both of them. I never understood why they didn't pair him with Allyson Stewart. Then Peyton went from Agim to Grayson....I thought they had better chemistry but Peyton was such an awful actress.

Ah didn't know there was bad blood. Boris was still licking yesterday by posting on twitter on how great Nole played. I think Sasha is fine for now. I usually find the FO dull and my least favorite major but I am looking forward to it this year. So many good storylines this year.

Lord...Brad Gilbert still has Novak as the second favorite behind Rafa.

Lord, where to begin? I thought Sasha played well and so glad he won. I am shocked that he is the first of the younger group to win a 1000 title. He beat Nick and Thiem who I thought would get one before Sasha. And Sasha is now number #10 in the world and will be seeded #9 in Paris. Could they have given him a shittier trophy? This is a 1000 tourney and the trophy looked like a junior tournament trophy made of plastic. IMO clay is not even Sasha's best surface. I think he is far better in hard court and fast indoors. Novak..he is dr jekyll and mr hyde. He looked awful from the beginning from double faulting to shanking balls all over the place. Where was the yelling? Where was his pimp thrusting? All we got today was pure obscenities with a warning. He actually should have gotten a point penalty as he continued to curse. I had to LOL at his brother Marko and his wife in the stands. Marko looking at Jelena with the look of here we go again and she was of the look of WTF? But the best part was seeing Marko react to a bad shot by Novak by laughing...priceless! And news that Novak will announce Andre Agassi as his new coach on Wednesday. Nice try Boris but he isn't hiring you back....LOL Oh Novak...bye bitch! Breaking news.... Andre will work with Novak starting at the French Open.

You're losing points with me. That's different....Novak wasn't saying Come on ...he was just yelling....shouting.....no words....

The Tennis Thread
Figured....Novak caught him on a bad day. I hope Sasha beats the crap out of him tomorrow! He looked like an idiot/fool with his yelling. It looked very classless. And can he stop with his hearting the fans? No one is buying that sh!t! Only his 6 fans of family do.

And Zverev is young....Novak is an over the hill 30 year old man with children acting like an ass on court with his yelling. It is a big turn off.

You must have not seen today's match cause Novak was horrible. It was even commented by others on Twitter how bad his yelling was. And his game is boring as hell and he was warned several times for playing to slow but no game points given out to him. He would bounce the ball over 10 times...ridiculous.

The Tennis Thread
Was reading Brad Gilbert's feed and some didn't like Novak's yelling either and one said boring tennis is back....LOLOLOL. So true! One thing for sure is that everyone was surprised this match wasn't closer. The last time they played it was a three set match in the year end finals championship.

Novak decided to show the fans/other male players and Thiem that he had balls that's all. His yelling and screaming was just over the top bad. I thought Dominic should have played a more looping game like he did against Rafa but he kept over hitting the ball. Once he would loop the ball over with a lot of topspin he was in the rallies. I think he was fatigued no matter how great the Joker played. I can't believe the Joker is the only player Thiem hasn't beaten. He has already beaten Andy, Rafa and Roger. No one saw this match coming and I doubt Joker can keep it up at the French. I really hope Sasha wins. I could not take Joker winning the tourney. If I were Dominic I'd tell the tourney [!@#$%^&*] you and not play next year. I don't think the tourney is that great. The courts look super small. I prefer the Madrid tourney over this one. I am curious to see what Thiem says about the match. He's always very polite and acknowledge's the play of his opponent. I hope this doesn't discourage him from the outstanding clay season he's had. He can win the French if he has a favorable draw. Another thing I hated was Novak's continued yelling at Thiem too after ever point....lord it was bad.

Lord...everyone thought that. I guess Joker and his wife are on good terms again. I couldn't stand his yelling and screaming to the crowd after every game. He looked pathetic. I see rope a dope tennis is back. Now why didn't he play like this against Rafa last week? Oh wait he was slaughtered by Rafa last week. I just hope...no I pray that Joker has Nick and Rafa on his side of the draw at The French. It is unfortunate cause this was Thiem's tourney to win. He didn't play very well and surely his win against Rafa was his championship match. He looked out of gas as well The Italian fans booing Thiem at the end was just awful. I hope Sasha beats Novak tomorrow. It's team Sasha 100%.

I got to see the first set and then taped the rest. I was able to see the final results. I am glad for Sasha and happy John lost. Can you imagine when Sasha improves his volleying? He will be unstoppable. As for TC....Ugh....John's lover was already in Italy. Calling in after the first set and pimping his boyfriend to the hills. That was total bullsh!t. I am so sick of TC pimping these worthless American male players. Sasha will be seeded #13 at the French unless he wins the title then he will be seeded #9 at Paris.

So some of the french male players are upset that another french player got a wildcard to the French Open after serving a 7 month suspension for illegal fixing of matches. Considering how much the person in charge...can't recall his name huffed and puffed about Maria....he lets one of his own in the tournament after being suspended for fixing matches.

Here is the new schedule for tomorrow http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/scores/current/rome/416/daily-schedule

He barely held serve in the second set. He isn't playing well. Novak is playing ok but not great. There is a rain delay thank gawd! If the match isn't completed tonight it will carry over tomorrow. Lord...TC sure sucks. They already went to the international feed. It's like 2pm in California and Tracy Austin and Co. already closed shop? Ridiculous! You sure find those matches don't you?- The Tennis Thread
Gawd...that was one awful set from Del Po. If that's all he can get from his backhand he might as well retire now. All of my favs have won today minus Venus but that wasn't even shown. I don't want Novak to win but it looks like he will. He better expect a much tougher match tomorrow with Thiem.- The Tennis Thread
Delpo's backhand is just awful. He is making the Joker look good. I can't stand Novak.- The Tennis Thread
Federico Fognini TC mentioned Taylor Fritz and why he wasn't playing. I found it pure garbage and had forgotten he was even on the tour....LOL. I haven't missed him....LOL- The Tennis Thread
http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/news/nadal-thiem-rome-2017-friday Great interview by Thiem on his win. I didn't know he had a losing record against both Joker and Delpo. http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/scores/current/rome/416/daily-schedule Schedule for tomorrow's matches.- What Are You Listening To?
