I was having breakfast the next morning and a guy walks in and I thought, "Damn, that really looks like Goran Ivanesovic." But I thought nothing of it. Then this balt headed dude walks in who looks like Murphy Jensen. Now I'm like "WTF is going on. That's gotta be Murphy Jensen." Upon further reviw, the Delta Seniors tour was in town. Had I stuck around I might have seen Courier or Johnny Mac.
August 10, 20205 yr Kontaviet is the best looking woman in the tournament. Thankfully she's in the finals. Ferro is approaching Dude Looks Like a Lady status. Ferro's coach looks like he plays in the Grateful Dead.

August 10, 20205 yr Author Playing WTT really was the right decision, she got a lot of match play while most sat. Early to tell, but she’s looking good.
August 11, 20205 yr Fat Sloane is super slow. lost in straights to Canadian 17 year old Fernandez for the 2nd time this year
August 12, 20205 yr Giorgi vs Mertens on Tennis Channel and I am fully on board the Giorgi train. She beats the living shit out of the 🎾 but as a result, makes a ton of unforced errors. Arguably the tightest stomach on the tour. She looks like she is boiling over with teen angst. Also there have been about a million deuces and it is only the 7th game. (5th Deuce in this game alone)
August 13, 20205 yr 6-4 in the 3rd for Serena. Richard made sure everyone followed the script. Little CiCi up a set on Pegula now.
August 15, 20205 yr Not that it really matters for attendance, but highly doubt the Lexington organizers were banking on a Teichmann/Brady final. Prague gets Simona/Mertens though.
August 16, 20205 yr Simona wins Prague, sucks she won’t be at USO. Edit: Not sure she’s withdrawn just yet. Edited August 16, 20205 yr by shadow_operative2.0
August 16, 20205 yr Jen Brady just dominated everyone in Lexington. She’s playing top 10 level tennis right now
August 23, 20205 yr Bony a fan of Tsitsipas. I think that he’s just such an awkward human being that he seems like a poorly programmed Android and that bugs. EDIT: He also appears to be part hippopotamus. I suspect this because he frequently tilts his head back so that it is the highes point of his head so that he can breathe.

August 24, 20205 yr I'm actually surprised Cornet made it to 4-2 in the tiebreaker but she's pushing now. Kenin has 20 mph more than her on every shot.
August 24, 20205 yr Sofia & Jen Brady both lose in straight sets in the first round. Hmmmm... I’m not pulling for Serena at all, but if she can’t win the US Open this year, she’s never winning another major.

Not a good sign for big mama If the field agrees to make her run side-to-side Andy then sprinkle in drop shots, she won’t make it to the final, much less win it. But if each girl tries to conserve her own energy by going for winners and keeping points short, then Serena has a chance... especially if she gets night matches.
August 26, 20205 yr Mary Joe, one of the biggest Serena fangirls alive, basically said she should have quit after the second with how embarrassing her ‘effort’ was in the third.
August 27, 20205 yr Such bullshit. Why should the ATP and WTA be concerned about an American issue? The tour is like 10% Americans at most. Are we going to stop playing forever because there are Chinese players in WTA? Where actual genocide is happening?
