Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 17 Members Share Posted January 17 ^^Wow, that is very sad. Was heat a complicating factor at all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 Did anyone see the Sabalenko vs Tsurenko match? What the heck happened there?! Seems like there is a recent trend of tennis players going to prison, narrowly avoiding prison, or under threat of possible prison time. Sanchez Vicario was known for being so clever on court, apparently not so much IRL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 (edited) I was watching Sinner on plus. Now watching Tsity and Van Assche. Add Sasha to the list who could get five years for beating his girlfriend. Although they've said he probably get probation for it. Both of his previous girlfriends have accused him of the same crime.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 Oh, he was definitely the one I was referring to as possible jail time but you’re likely correct to say that it will probably be some kind of probation or suspended sentence or some combination of the two. I didn’t see any of the post match interviews but I read that a reporter asked him about the case/allegations and he looked bewildered and caught off guard by the questions. Surely, he had to expect that someone sometime would ask him about this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 Aww, one of the players I have been enjoying watching lately lost her match while I was sleeping. Itty bitty ‘Pow Pow’ Jasmine Paolini couldn’t power her way past her outsized opponent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 I loved it! Sasha up two sets again and crumbles.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 28 Members Share Posted January 28 Admittedly, I saw next to none of the women’s final (I had a feeling that Zheng’s nerves as a first time finalist would be no match for Sabalenka’s power and high level of confidence and focus. I had hoped the final might be competitive but had an underlying doubt that it would actually be. I saw more of the men’s final and that was a lot more competitive. I missed the first two and a half sets, so I clicked on in time to catch Medvedev, right on schedule, get snagged by his 2 sets lead problem. Still, Sinner did earn that title with some hard fought wins, most of which, admittedly, I didn’t see. Just imagine how he will feel once the court trial comes to the fore. After he got knocked out of the tournament, ESPN finally felt obliged to make a statement detailing the charges. It took decades but I think ESPN has ultimately ruined tennis for me. I am seriously considering purchasing a VPN so I can watch RG and Wimbledon on their native broadcast networks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 28 Members Share Posted January 28 Sasha pretty much said that people who believed his ex were stupid. He's a scumbag. Glad Sinner won. He was down two sets when I turned the tv off but DVR the rest. First time in a long time that a player I like won a major. VPN? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 28 Members Share Posted January 28 Doesn’t he mean ex-girlfriends? Lest he forget that he’s had more than one woman make an allegation of abuse. VPN is Virtual Private Network. I use a free one which is good for when I make financial transactions online but it’s limited to the U.S. I need a VPN that will allow me access to Europe. Here is an explanation of VPNs. https://www.pcmag.com/picks/the-best-vpn-services 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
