JJ just saved his 6th set point on a 63 mph serve!

Is he doing that sick slice, or just rolling it in to get the point started?

Giron played a good match. Rough year for JJ so far.


RBF Collins declares retirement and all of the sudden can't be beat. Playing Ons now.

Rafa is out of Monte Carlo. I read some anecdotal stuff that his back is messed up and he can't serve.

Some diehards in Houston at 12:30 am watching Kovacevic choke the 3rd set breaker after serving at 7-6

Shelton moved up to 14 behind 13 Fritz, but after a 1st rnd loss by Fritz at Monte Carlo giving up 315 points he drops below Ben to 14 making Shelton the #1 American at the moment.

Ha, I turned on Monte Carlo in my office two seconds before seeing the thread bumped. Norrie and Khachanov is a solid first round match.

Alcaraz has his forearm taped and has been hitting all slice forehands in practice clips. Novak said he has low expectations for himself. God I hope this is not another Sinner title.

Ruud, Rublev, and Musetti would seem to be the obvious choices in the top half for fading Joker and Carlos.

Not sure how I stumbled on this, but I watched a little of this Stanford v Oregon match. The Oregon guy is getting worked in the comments for his crazy serve.

That's some funny stuff in there.

I went to the Southeastern vs McNeese match a few weeks ago. One girl from Southeastern 100% served underhanded. Had it all, little cut serve, full topspin, slicer. She did have some physio tape on her shoulder, and I suppose they could have put her on a serve restriction, but I really don't think so. It looked like that was just what she did.

Sinner/Rune was pretty good. Rune saved two match points in the second set breaker to force the third. Tsitsi also won today. Djoker up now.

Tsitsipas and Sinner going to a third set. Sinner closed out the second fighting off double break point and through a thirteen minute game.

Whoa, Tsitsipas pulled it out. Sinner did get his quad worked on up a break at 4-3, so probably made a difference.
