From what I've observed about Dzumhur-- he's a surprisingly diminuitive guy compared with other players but when he's playing well, he doesn't beat himself, he makes his opponent beat him. He's not one to give points away.

Unless Tsitsipas has been injured some of those times when they've faced each other, there must be something in Dzumhur's game that bother's Tsitsipas' game.  I wonder what Moratouglu has to say about this, he usually has a lot to say about everything.

 

Serena has not been saying that lately though.  Perhaps because she wants to avoid a backlash but I've notice that for the last year or so, she has only complemented her opponents' games after a loss.

 

Ryan Harrison had an incident with Donald Young last year and Young was the one who bore the burnt of the fallout.  It doesn't surprise me in the least that Harrison is again at the center of conflict with no Young in sight to take the blame.  Doesn't surprise me that TC again gives Harrison cover.

Tsitsipas did twist his leg/ankle during the match. Dzumhur has been nonexistent after having a good year a while back. He doesn't do anything great so he uses his wheels a lot. I think Tsitsipas is gassed and shouldn't be playing so much. So many of these tournaments are meaningless...

 

Btw.....Roger dropped to #7 in the rankings this week. 

I had forgotten that it was the same tournament.....LOL....last year and now this year....and TC just brushes it off...so sad...

    • It was reported that Jane Wyman absence in the final season was due to health (it's documented that Jane was diabetic) but I believe her episodes being cut was a budget mode move. Similar move Dallas pulled in its final season, it was reported that Barbara Bel Geddes retired due to health (it's documented that Barbara had a heart condition) but I say salary dump. Jane Wyman only acted once after Falcon Crest, a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, but she lived another 14 years after that. Barbara Bel Geddes did not act again after her last episode of Dallas in 1990 but she lived another 15 years after that. The trifecta of suck at Lorimar was Les Moonves, Leonard Katzman, and Michael Filerman. It was a pattern across all three CBS primetime soaps in the off the rails plus budget mode era to salary dump the long-time female cast members and bring on sweet young things hired on the cheap. 
    • To be fair, more than half of them are dead now. 
    • Kat may be a privileged elitist but that's not entirely true.  Kat first met Eva when Eva was snooping at Nicole's desk, so Kat's first impression of Eva wasn't very good.  Plus, Kat's instinct to not trust Eva was 100% right.  Kat's attitude toward Eva had nothing to do with Eva not "bowing" down to Kat, and her feelings toward her half-sister is very justified......minus the making fun of Eva's clothes of course. 
    • They said that this has metastasized to his bones, but the type of "aggressive" prostate cancer he has is actually very common and is treatable, or at least manageable. So the headline is misleading.   Apparently this type of cancer is hormonal which makes it somewhat treatable? But still, of course, sad.  Thinking of him and his loved ones.
    • Kat is a spoiled brat princess and Silk Press Sheila called her out on it.  Silk Press Sheila is someone not to mess with. I was actually scared for Kat when she was alone with Silk Press Sheila and recording their conversation.
    • It is funny that Stephanie and Philip still hide/blush/get embarrassed at the sight of each other.  Meanwhile, Kate's pouring coffee for Rafe at the pub as if they're only casual acquaintances.  Although, if Kate blushed every time she saw one of her former lovers, she'd be permanently red.
    • Great thought.  I mostly forgot about Kate's cancer.
    • I figured because Kate received her cancer treatment at the hospital that she decided to “give back” by being on the board.
    • Someone posted years ago that they remember Pamela Peters (Peggy) was having some sort of issues behind the scenes during the rape storyline and barely participated onscreen when it played out. Trish Stewart (Chris) seemed to carry most of the storyline along with Dick DeCoit (Ron) and David Hasselhoff (Snapper). I think the poster also mentioned that Anthony Hererra (Jack) said that Pamela Peters one day looked into the camera and exclaimed she didn't know what she was doing and walked out of the scene.
