Members Faulkner Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Yeah, Darcis tweeted it. He withdrew for "personal reasons." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Yeah, he told the media that he wasn't going to worry about winning. That the media needed to stop pimping him because he wasn't going to play their game....LOL. I don't think either that he cares about winning. His game is too mechanical for my tastes. I don't think he is that great in the way that the media portrays him. I don't even see him as a top 20 player. Is he going to be a father too???????

Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) According to reports, Steve Darcis withdrew and flew back to Belgium because his little girl needs surgery. Hope all goes well for his daughter. Edited February 24, 2017 by DramatistDreamer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Leander Paes and Rendy Lu dismiss the Bryan brothers in Delray Beach. Rendy really held his own amongst the veterans. And Rendy is totally 😍 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Glad they did. I can't stand the Bryan brothers. They should have been showing the Thiem match anyways and not doubles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 The Bryans have become increasingly vulnerable over the past several years plus Paes is a very experience and heralded doubles player in his own right and Rendy Lu is one of those diligent players who doesn't beat himself- he requires that you must put in the effort to beat him. So good for Lu and Paes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Men's doubles is something I don't ever think I could watch from beginning to end. Never have and I've been watching tennis for 34 years! Too boring! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 I played singles and doubles in HS and college tournaments but preferred singles. Doubles were usually played during dual matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Doubles is fun to play but unless it's the Williams Sisters or maybe Fed Cup or Davis Cup or some unusual doubles pairing (Nadal and Tomic anyone??), I generally don't tune in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 I don't typically watch doubles either outside of the Olympics or Venus/Serena. But I do love me some Rendy. I wish I played tennis. I might invest in some lessons here in NYC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Thought Milos was going to lose....grrrrrrr.....wanted Kyle Edmund to win. He should have beat him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yeah. It's tough when Milos can servebot his way out of trouble. Happy to see Delpo get his revenge on Querrey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 I missed Milos vs. Kyle. Most of the matches in the past two weeks, I've missed, TBH. I did catch a couple of DelPo's matches, most of tonight's match included. I'm glad he won in straight sets because 90% of Sam's matches are excruciating to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
