I used to love watching tennis as a kid. Especially the McEnroe days. Not so much any more.

untold...breaking point on Netflix is pretty good.

I wonder what the verdict on Novaxx Djokovic will be. The drama with him is ridiculous now. Visa revoked twice, his manager didn't fill out the forms properly, he did a photoshoot sick with Covid "not to disappoint" the journalist, his father portraying him like he's Jesus or something, ffs... :eyes:

I'm going to be watching the French Open tomorrow morning.
Coco Gauff is going up against the number one ranked womens single champ Swiatek for the championship.
It's impressive because Coco just recently turned 18 and is the first US woman to make it to a major final as
a teen since Serena did it over 20 years ago.
Swiatek appears to be unstoppable though and only 21 herself so hopefully a rivalry is born out of this.

So Serena is coming back for Wimbledon next week. I'm pretty pumped up about it. I still haven't seen that movie yet King Richard.

I still love Nadal he's a favorite of mine. Kyrgios has been fun to watch lately. He's got all those basketball tattoos.

How far can Coco Gauff go this Australian Open that's what I'm wondering.

Did anyone watch Venus yesterday that was pretty awesome. I just put on the tennis channel by coincidence. I honestly didn't know she still played.

I'm a little bit pissed off that both Coco and Venus were both beat already in Wimbledon. Those were some tough first round draws

It's Canadian Open now which leads right into the US Open. There's not much break between those 2. It's crunch time.

On the women's side Swiatek has been on top number one for a long time but I doubt anyone can identify what she looks like. She always has the hat on.
