Any numbers on Rafa versus lefties? He seems to be a comfortable 3-0 on Norrie, but I think this will be a dogfight. I know Rafa lost to Muller once at Wimbledon and struggled with Mannarino last month, but I'm guessing otherwise he has done well.

So, I was thinking I would like to have relations with this Kalinskaya. Looks like Nick was already there.

53-9 vs. lefties in the top 50 and 7 of the 9 came from Lopez and Verdasco. Muller and Melzer the others.

Norrie 8-7 but a 4-match win streak, and 4 of the losses were on clay.

Have we heard if Zverev is going to get suspended?

This is all I could find. I’m guessing nothing else will happen.

Svitolina pledges to donate her winnings to Ukraine, then draws a Russian opponent in round 1 and refuses to play.

Can’t make this up.

Indian Wells put Djokovic in the draw, even though it seems very unlikely he will be able to enter the United States and compete in the tournament.


Pretty stupid. This could mean 3 of the top 4 players in the tournament end up on the same side of draw.

We still have a vax requirement for foreigners? Clown world.

I actually watched some Davis Cup qualifiers this weekend. I want to know who the genius was that decided to play Colombians at 4,500 feet of altitude. The USA got through it OK, I guess.

Yes. It's ridiculous.

However, the fact that the tournament directors can't communicate with the CDC or U.S. immigration services or whoever the frick controls the BS covid rules in this county and figure out if he's going to be able to enter the country is wild.

Maybe I just answered my own question. The U.S. is such a shite show it's probably hard to get a definitive answer on all of this bullshite.

By the way, Alex got 8 weeks on paper, but it's withheld for a probationary period if he behaves well. Serena and a bunch of other people are upset.

I saw a comment about a loophole where he could fly into Mexico and drive into the states. Supposedly the ban only applies to air travel, which I haven't researched but seems plausible.

Not sure I understand the vax rule at IW either. Apparently unvaccinated fans are not allowed, but word is that Sandgren isn't vaxxed and he's playing.

So, yeah what a frickin mess. The fact that covid completely left the planet a few weeks ago and IW still has a vax requirement is comical. And then Miami is another story with different rules most likely.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Novak plays one or both events.

Would be awesome if he gets to play.

I would assume it's a safe bet he at least plays Miami since that's still two weeks out.

Djokovic not able to participate at Indian Wells.

So they put him in the draw just for him to be removed from the draw less than 24 hours later. What a fricking shite show.

I can't believe COVID is a facto in anything anymore.
