Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 7, 2019 Members Share Posted January 7, 2019 There are a bunch of withdrawals this week, for some reason. It seems as if the draw in some tournaments were put out too late for many players and some are opting out, citing various reasons. Points seem to be the least of this ATP Cup's problems. The fact that they are trying to stage on event in three separate cities, likely displacing WTA events is a big concern. The points seem to be an attempt to lure more players to this event, especially seeing as one complaint that had arisen over the years was tournaments (e.g. Davis Cup) that had stopped awarding points. Who even knows if this will work? The clusterf*ck to the already scrambled schedule, as well as how it affects a whole other tour (WTA) has to be a concern. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted January 8, 2019 Members Share Posted January 8, 2019 Girl... if you’re not going to play, don’t enter the tournament. Give the spot to someone eager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted January 8, 2019 Members Share Posted January 8, 2019 I don’t remember, but outside of select Slams and North American Masters, Sloane still DGAF. This made me laugh: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 8, 2019 Members Share Posted January 8, 2019 That match against Alexandrovna was the first match she's won in Australia since 2015! LOL.

Members SnCCorinthos4ever Posted January 9, 2019 Members Share Posted January 9, 2019 Can he be any more of a flog, so hoping I don’t get either one as a match at the Aust Open. https://www.foxsports.com.au/video/tennis/tennis/bernies-bizarre-match-point!713740?nk=4746b5d1a76db1af7b3533ed5ca529c9-1547015724 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 9, 2019 Members Share Posted January 9, 2019 Sloane served for the match in the 2nd set, but Putintseva came back and won 6-0 in third. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 9, 2019 Members Share Posted January 9, 2019 Sloane managed to escape her inexperienced opponent in the previous round but not Putintseva. Sloane has only won one match in Australia in 5 years! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted January 9, 2019 Members Share Posted January 9, 2019 Vahaly revealed to The Telegraph last August that a handful of professional players, and around 30 at junior and college level, have told him privately that they are gay, but have opted against going public. Vahaly is sure there are many more, and wants to create as welcoming and understanding environment as possible to help them come out should they want to. They are, he believes, "scared" of revealing their true selves to the wider world. Hmmmmm...wonder who they are....and JG is probably one of the homophobes...wouldn't surprise me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
