Wow, Davidovich Fokina is having the week of his career.

 

And Berrettini toppled Kohlschreiber, who usually redlines in Munich. What a run *he’s* having!

He is another David Ferrer clone. I like his game though. 

 

I find Berrenttini overrated. He loses to the most random players...LOL.....

 

Should have asked me....LOL...since I have them on replay on my DVR....bwahahaha

 

 

Just saw Davidovich Fokina, who, due to his unexpected deep run in Estoril, would have missed his Madrid qualie matches, has received Berdych’s wild card into the main draw.

I think the quailes...have already started or start tomorrow for the men. So Berdych pulled out after getting a wild card and posting pics of himself practicing on clay? The guy needs to retire. 

I love Novak, but Rafa on clay any day if my life is on the line.

Ever since Roger announced he is playing some clay tournaments ...these threesome chat has started up again....I'm in the minority but I am really pissed that Roger is now playing Madrid and now I hear Italian Open....when he avoided them like the plaque for years. He took Thiem's spot at the #4 seed...Roger won't win on clay.....hopefully it backfires on him and he loses early at Wimbledon from all the clay he is playing. 

LMAO at this Medvedev gif (after the Tsitsipas match at USO when his camp wasn’t cheering enough to his liking). He’s hilarious.

 

 

A jam packed draw on the men's side. The two Canadians will off one another tomorrow....lots going on from quailes....to first round women's matches with the men to start tomorrow with more quailes tomorrow too.....and two men's tourney left to finish. @ChitHappens your girl Petra is playing right now.

Damn!  I'm not home but thanks for the heads up 😊

Both Nadal and Djokovic's Madrid press conferences have been postponed until tomorrow. Hm.

Joker will probably be asked about the Justin mess and why he didn't get rid of him.

I read, in 2 different places, that directly after Djoker met with the sociopath, he called in and resigned.  More than likely, Djoker nudged him in the right direction.  Djoker is certainly not responsible for TC's inaction!  

Magu out.....keys out...not a surprise and Kyrios out too....lol

By most standards, this is a puff piece.  What's interesting to me is that, according to the tournament organizers in Madrid, the announcement of Federer playing in the tournament made ticket sales jump.  Perhaps because some believe that it could be the last chance for them to glimpse him in Madrid?

 

Went to Switzerland to talk to Roger Federer about clay. He still knows how to slide (and sweep)https://t.co/Wfo3DZuZRq
