Anyone for tennis?

1ga is having a good time at Indian Wells. Will play Sakkari in the final.

Avoid the bees!

6-4, 6-0 Third bagel in the tournament for 1ga.

Swiatek - Giorgi 6-1, 6-1 in Miami. I wish it was against De Niro.  

[blackhawkrush]

1ga loses 4-6, 2-6. In fact, the top three in WTA rankings are gone. Too many tournaments? Sometimes I wish for an early exit for Swiatek, in order for her to get some rest. 

[blackhawkrush]

Swiatek just keeps winning tournaments. This time in Rome.  

[blackhawkrush]

French Open, 2nd round: Swiatek - Osaka 7-6, 1-6, 7-5  And it didn't even bother Iga that the cameraman was showing closeups of Osaka 95% of the time. 

[blackhawkrush]

Swiatek - Bouzkova 6-4, 6-2 This isn't hockey, Czechia. This girl was being run around the court all through the match. Now you tell these women to play best of five. They'd be dropping like flies.

Swiatek - Potapova 6-0, 6-0 Kratochvilova...er, Vondrousova next.

6-0, 6-2 1ga is slacking off.

Roland Garros semifinal:  Swiatek - Gauff  6-2, 6-4  Poland is not a very sexy nation for Western Europe. Tough luck, France.

Wow; that was almost close. Swiatek must be getting tired.

That Polish-Italian girl will be a challenge in the final, but I think 1ga has too much skill for her. 

[blackhawkrush]

Iga Swiatek wins her 4th French Open title.  The five-time World champion hammer thrower, Pawel Fajdek predicted the final score exactly. I helped a bit before the match by saying, 'This will never end up 6-2, 6-1'.

Spain beating Germany is always desirable.

Escape from Alcaraz?

Not a fan. He comes across as a little shit. Starts to groan when (losing) needed. But it looks like I'm going to be disappointed quite a few times because of him (winning) in the future.

He came back with a vengeance in sets 4 & 5 after dropping five straight games to Zverev to give away set 3.

His haircut looks like he's auditioning for Dumb and Dumber 3.

No more bagels. The labors on grass. Swiatek - Kenin 6-3, 6-4

Almost carbon copy, Swiatek - Martic 6-4, 6-3

Ugh - Iga is out.  Even worse, Ons Jabbur is beaten.  Looks like Wozniacki is going to lose.  Not a good day at Wimbleton.

Losing to a name like Putinceva is a double whammy. Good thing the Olympics will not be held on grass.

WTA ranking: 1) Swiatek 11.285 points, 2) Gauff 8.173, 3) Sabalenka 7.062

Dang - Emma is out.  Not much left to root for on the ladies side.  Perhaps Ostopenko.  On the mens side anybody other than Novak.
