And Tiafoe loses...not surprised. I guess Sousa only shows up in his home tournament because the rest of the season he sucks. Stefanos Tsitsipas should've beaten Sousa and won the tournament. Tsitsipas is looking good and on the rise.

Sousa was lucky to have that insurance break in the second set after failing to serve it out at 5-2. Playing at home can be a double-edged sword as we’ve seen with other players who can’t get it together at home tournaments.

 

It was a good week for Frances. A lot he can build on and learn from.

Kyle wins the doubles after losing to Sousa in the QFs

Kyle and Stefanos took Sousa to three sets and should've beaten him. I like/use to like Sousa until I heard about him fixing matches. He is a cheat....he tanks matches....

Gasquet beat Berdych today in Madrid in the first round. Berdych should just retire already.

 

Tomorrow.....Novak vs Kei first round

That’s going to be tough to watch. My two favorite players. Not even going to venture a guess as to who’ll win.

 

Taro Daniel wins his first title in Istanbul!

 

 

 

Didn’t know that about Sousa. Did he get cited for match fixing?

 

Madison Keys lost in the first round in Madrid. Osaka and Ostapenko also out.

I agree and at least he showed up to compete, unlike the rest of his compatriots. When is the last time a US man got to a final on European clay?  It was a good week for him and he has lots to learn and is young enough to do this.

 

 

As for Madrid, it isn't a true clay court surface so I rarely pay attention to the results there.

No he didn't. But it's common knowledge in the tennis community that he has cheated before.

It's one of my favorites. Venus already lost yesterday. I am fortunate to now have the bein channel. The men's matches started today on TC.

Venus hasn't played in a month, so I'm not shocked by that result.  I'd much prefer she defend her points at Rome, Wimbledon-plus go a step further.

I was surprised she even showed up for Madrid, she must not have heard the nasty things that slimeball tournament director Ion Tiriac said about Serena.

Lots of popcorn matches here. 

 

 

 

Maria vs Kiki or Maria vs Wozniacki would be delicious for their drama potential, although I hope Kiki takes care of business. Bertens will be tricky for Caroline.

You think? The only men’s match I’m anticipating is Djokovic/Edmund. The others feel sort of meh for me, at least in the matches tomorrow and the R-16 matches already set.

 

Grigor is just so streaky. He won Cincinnati and the YE and has just fallen apart.

I was just about to give Mladenovic props for going hard against Sharapova. And then she surrenders a 3-1 lead and let’s Maria walk all over her. Pathetic. Hopefully Bertens gets in that ass tomorrow.

 

I don’t even know what to say about Novak. He basically gave that match away. Sometimes it looks like he’s hungry and then he turns on a dime and looks completely apathetic. Makes it very hard to be a fan, so I might just pass on his matches until he can string together some convincing wins.

    • But that's not weird... nail polish is allowed in prisons via commissary. Same with general makeup, haircuts, and hair colouring products.
    • This is DAYS, the show that said you could brainwash anyone with simple kitchen appliances.  An actor's nail polish or lack thereof should be the least of our concerns, lol.
    • It was not that she wasn't wearing nail polish, it is that she managed to get a manicure in prison
    • "We're Knot Done Yet": the name of this lovely podcast AND what JVA tells her plastic surgeon at every appointment. In other news, Michele Lee is reminding me more and more of my old music teacher from elementary school, and I couldn't STAND that bitch.
    • I apologize if this has been covered already, but does anyone know whether Douglas Marland was HW'ing by that point?  If he was, then I see what he meant when he said (in so many words) that he had inherited a mess when he started at GH.  Aside from Alan and Monica, none of that material seems very promising.  The story with Mark Dante and the Corbins is the wrong kind of predictable (y'know, the kind where you know what's going to happen, but you just don't give a crap?), the stuff with Scotty and Laura is cute but toothless, I don't know WHAT the hell Gina and Steve Carlson's character are arguing about and Rick Webber has to be the dumbest man alive not to see David Hamilton practically twirling his moustache over how to make a killing off Lamont Corbin's declining health.  (By the way, "LAMONT CORBIN"?  What is this, "The Shadow"?  And "Corbin Limited" sounds like some jive I'd hear over on Y&R.) In a way, it's kind of like watching today's GH, right down to the dialogue that's serviceable and pushes plot along but says nothing about the characters' inner lives.
    • It absolutely was; the narrative was there, and they followed it promptly. Maybe that's back when women had babies at young ages?!?!?

    • Thanks for asking that!  Back when we had another major event upcoming (a party or the concert), I had intended to ask what everyone here was planning to wear.

    • Lol. Right?  I mean the show could have framed the 60th anniversary in a different way, but the narrative was celebrating Tom and the hospital. Also, what a weirdly sexist bunch of posts about women's nail polish.  Like, yes, this is Days problem lol.  Stacy Haiduk isn't a good Kristen because she doesn't wear nail polish?  Are we in the 1950's???
