Members I Am A Swede Posted February 7, 2022 Members Share Posted February 7, 2022 Not a bit surprised. She's probably not allowed to leave China anymore. She has also apparently claimed that everything was a misunderstanding, and that the reason she disappeared from view for a while was computer problems.....

Members Fevuh Posted February 8, 2022 Members Share Posted February 8, 2022 I saw that. You could tell by the way she was acting the last time (well, the last time I saw) her on Twitter. Someone posted an 'interview', but it was someone just trying to talk to her really. Chris Evert tweeted it out and said, this is not OK or something. But in the video someone asked her about where she's been, and at first she said 'can we go inside?' Like she wanted to say something. Then she looked sideways like someone was watching her (because I'm sure they were)...and then, the person who asked the question was standing right there...she said "I can't hear you, I'm sorry?" It was so obvious that she's been yanked back/put in her place. Did she appear at the Olympics? I thought for sure, maybe I missed it, but it would be very much like them to trot her out for a lot of parade opportunities to show how happy she is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 9, 2022 Members Share Posted February 9, 2022 Are folks watching this DelPo/Delbonis match? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 9, 2022 Members Share Posted February 9, 2022 I watched it. Lots of former players were there. My favorite Gabriella Sabitini was there. Nice to see her again. The atmosphere was a typical DelPo match. A full house crowd with no empty seats. I started tearing up when he started crying before the last game played. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 9, 2022 Members Share Posted February 9, 2022 It was difficult to watch at times and I only managed to get the match at the beginning of the second set. Still, there's a poignance to ending his professional career in Argentina, if that was his final match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fevuh Posted February 9, 2022 Members Share Posted February 9, 2022 Ugh. Well not much solace but at least the loss was to someone from Argentina. There's a part of me that still wants him to somehow stay in it and return. I would love to see him advance a couple of matches at a Slam. He would get a ton of support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 It might not be his last match. Please register in order to view this content I'd rather see him return instead of Andy Murray. How long has he been back and just looks foolish to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 I know that he mentioned another tournament...Rio, was it? So it's a possibility that he could play that but his body language looked so definitively done in that Delbonis match that I am not sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 10, 2022 Members Share Posted February 10, 2022 DelPo meant later on in the year. I think he's going to continue to rehab that knee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted February 13, 2022 Members Share Posted February 13, 2022 Tennis is the pits right now. Thank gawd Nadal won the first major. We have the Greek God, hate the name, losing with a new coach in toe. You know Thomas Enqvist will be blamed for the loss. I really didn't care who won anyways but Enqvist deserves bettrr. Dallas Open...nice to have a tournament in Texas but damn it's full of serve bots and who wins? FF to Brett Haber going on and on about how great American male tennis is and how Opelka is more than a serve bot and they have the nerve to show some meaningless stats. Can't believe they are still trying to sell this garbage. On the clay we have Diego vs Casper...Mr. 250 Casper wins another clay court tourney.... Yawn... But wait Brett Haber and Co. are saying how great he is and how great Rudd is on hard courts. Really? Where's the receipts? It pisses me off that they pimp this guy when Thiem started almost the same way but refer to him only as a clay specialist. That he couldn't play on hard court. Yeah I agree with what Fabio Fogini said...tennis looks bleak with serve bots in existence. Thiem where or where are you?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
