I have been paying the barest amount of attention to tennis but I saw that clip of Ugo Humbert taking Carlos Alcaraz out of the Paris Masters tournament and man, the French fans were rocking that entire arena. It must have been a Davis Cup-like environment!

I saw the score too and thought meh.😂

Grigor recently said he was saddened depressed because Dominic and Rafa were retiring. Said he was having panic attacks. I wonder how much longer he will play.

Wow, I remember seeing a headline showing him with a quote about mental health and how guys need help too but I thought he meant in general. I had no idea that he was struggling. I think more players have struggled with this than has been made public. I had always hoped that Grigor and Gaël would each win at least one major before they retire, but more and more I doubt this will happen.

 If tennis industry would stop trying to label players as machines and superhuman and accept that some days players struggle, I think tennis as a sport could finally be a sport of our times. Personally , I don’t find much entertainment value in pickleball but pickleball allows people to accept that people sometimes have limitations (injuries, age, restrictions on level of ability) yet can still enjoy the game. At least don’t frame the situation as a player being weak if they need help.

Wertheim’s apology:

 

Krejcikova called it out and forced his hand, I think. He may have thought it was a tempest in a teapot that would get ignored. He was hopelessly naive if so:
