August 9, 20232 yr 23 hours ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: Petko is probably one of the most popular WTA players of the last two decades. I got back into tennis at the end of 2019, post Dallas tornado that did some damage to my parents house, and I returned to Dallas and had the Tennis Channel for the first time in the weeks months following my dad passing away and then COVID tournaments while the house was being repaired. Never had heard of her. Had no idea about that she had always been a woman. Just like when my fair-haired, blue-eyes friend would speak Japanese to a waitress in Osaka and she would freeze because she was confused, I was distracted by what I was seeing. The Tennis Channel is far—and-away the most progressive sports channel on TV with BIKTARVY commercials repeatedly telling viewers to keep loving who they are. 20 hours ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: Camila not treating Bianca real well in front of her people. IN OTHER NEWS… Jennifer Brady must have lost her sponsors while she was away, because in here match just now (that she lost) against Rybakina, she was warring an ASICS hat, New Balance shoes, something on her skirt, and then on her shirt, she had a small… …logo. First time I’ve seen someone sporting the Flex Seal brand on the courts.
August 9, 20232 yr I noticed the FlexSeal logo too. Got a chuckle out of me because in my head all I could think of was the voice of Phil Swift yelling “PHIL SWIFT HERE WITH FLEX SEAL!!!!” Edited August 9, 20232 yr by perfectchaos007
August 10, 20232 yr Author Leylah defends her turf in a battle with BHM. Dani up a set on Sakkari. Aryna v. Martic next.
August 10, 20232 yr Author Dani smoked Sakkari. Aryna battled past Martic. Petra v. hot Camila to end a long day. Won’t be many rallies in that one.
August 10, 20232 yr Author I really don’t know if Petra Petra’d or Camila Camila’d, they both equally share in this one. 6-2, 5-7, 6-0 for the vet lefty. Petra was serving for straights at 30-0, but clearly hates easy.
August 12, 20232 yr Sinner vs Monfils is big boy tennis. 3rd set now. Monfils serving out of his mind. I like the female commentator. She brings up small technical things that are different throughout the match.
August 12, 20232 yr It's past 2:30am in Montreal and Rybakina/Kasatkina are still battling in the third set.
August 12, 20232 yr Author I wonder what truly makes Elena excited? She’s gonna win, but she’s been mad since about game 1.
August 12, 20232 yr The Russian representing Kazakhstan def. the unrepresented lesbian Russian. Great battle
August 12, 20232 yr Anyone subscribe to Tennis Channel Plus? I pulled the trigger on TennisTV to try it out. It’s great except it’s only men’s tennis. I’ve heard nothin but horror stories about TC+…poor quality streams, glitchy app, etc.
August 12, 20232 yr Nope. I already watch too much crap sports as it is. I don’t need to pay to consume even more.
August 13, 20232 yr Author Dude tries to throw in some Texas shade at the end. JPeg won in 3, Elena v. Samsonova postponed until today.

The day before in the middle of the 40-40 point in the second set, the ball is in the air for Danielle Collins to hit an overhead and someone yelled out. She hit the overhead long and it was Match Point. Complete horse shit. The point absolutely should have been replayed. Then the following day this crap happened from the tweet and they replayed the point. Same tournament. Same court. CUNTS!
August 13, 20232 yr Author Dueling breadsticks between Elena/Samsonova, now we need a breaker. Winner gets JPeg in a few hours.
August 13, 20232 yr 3 hours ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: Elena didn’t give a shit, JPeg should win this title. lol that was one of the most routine finals you'll see. Fuckin' WTA
August 15, 20232 yr Author 2 & 1 for DasKa over Peyton in Cincy, that's real bad. Dani v. Pavs underway, but not on TV yet.

Her home town tournament, one she likely grew up attending (if it has been around a while), and she gets “put out on the street” like one of Pimpbot 5000’s lowest earners. #sad
August 18, 20232 yr 27 minutes ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: Coco v. Noskova now. No legal booze for either for quite awhile. Noskova is legit. Down a break in first set but multiple points where her power on groundstrokes was too much for Coco. She’s interesting at 18 years old.
August 18, 20232 yr What is a service break? Coco wins the first set 6-4 in a set that had 9 breaks of serve
August 18, 20232 yr Author That’s pretty salty for the women. Elena quit again today though, that’s becoming a little too regular for her.
August 18, 20232 yr 5 hours ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: Coco v. Noskova now. No legal booze for either for quite awhile. Ummmm… Legal booze last week in Canada. Basically in entire world minus the 🇺🇸 they’re both adults. It’s a little freer once you get out of the USA. 3 hours ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: That’s pretty salty for the women. Elena quit again today though, that’s becoming a little too regular for her. People were withdrawing left & right today. With the second week of fucked up rain delays and the US Open in 10 days, people have been bailing on Cincy. Pegula won last week and basically was like “Fuck this shit, I’m out.” She didn’t withdraw, but she was bageled by Bouzkova in the 2nd set. Whether it’s Buffalo or Florida, she had “I just want to go home and rest.” written all over her face. The withdrawals may have started on Wednesday, can’t remember, but earlier Thursday I was looking at when people were withdrawing and how frequent it was on Thursday. Not a good look for the tournament or the two tours.
August 18, 20232 yr Today Bouzkova played 3 games against her compatriot before quitting. It’s a quitting pandemic in Cinci

It’s a quitting pandemic in Cinci She didn’t hit a first serve in getting smoked at love in her only service game and thought… ”Fuck this shit!” Rather than get smoked in under and an hour, she said “I’ll call it a day and pick up my check on the way to New York.” Bouzkova won 2 of 14 points.
August 19, 20232 yr Coco knocked out Iga for the first time in her career. Sabalenka up a set on Muchova in the other semi

I’m really looking forward to tomorrow. Don’t get me wrong, Carlito is eaaaaasy to like, but Djokovic is just incredible.

August 20, 20232 yr 11 hours ago, troph said: I watched Saba melt down. Didn’t get to watch Coco. Tomorrows gunna be gud. Same. I didn’t see Coco, but Iga’s become more and more mentally unstable since the end of the French Open. She looks on the verge of tears and a tantrum in almost any match against a top 20 player. Her game has regularly just fallen apart even though she is the superior player. She just starts sending shots flying all over the court and then pouting towards her box. I usually pull for her to lose these days. It’s difficult to pull for such a miserable human being.
August 20, 20232 yr I really like sabalenka, maybe because she’s spoken out against her own country’s position in the Ukraine war, maybe because I’m a bit of a head case on the court too. I love her forehand power. I’d love to see her break through.
August 20, 20232 yr Author Break through? As in win, oh I don’t know, a fucking Slam? Like the one she won in January?
August 20, 20232 yr The light blue courts at Cinci are tough on the eyes. I can barely follow the ball on TV. I much prefer the darker blue courts at the US Open
August 20, 20232 yr 3 hours ago, shadow_operative2.0 said: Break through? As in win, oh I don’t know, a fucking Slam? Like the one she won in January? I think she could be number 1 for a long while break through. I think she could win multiple per year break through. I think she’s super talented and her record doesn’t show it break through.

I was fortunate enough to sit front row at the US Open a few years ago and was blown away by how hard he works and the level of his game. I REALLY didn't like Carlito when he was 18 and coming on, but he's growing on me. Great for the game that he's the number 1 and playing as well as he is while still having to contend with Djokovic. 2-2 in the first in Cincy.
