TENNIS THREAD- it's '"Bienvenidos a Miami"- and then onwards to the clay season (with hopefully no unwanted injuries ) Vamos!

[Raahh]

Bit of Will Smith there to start a new thread.

I wanted to put 'and no anti- vaxxers' but the title was long enough already .

Jane I'm surprised he is still allowed courtside anywhere.

Greg doesn't care. He's getting a new yacht.

Jane

It’s weird - he seems to get a warning every match but everyone just seems to shrug it off - it doesn’t do Stef any favours with the fans or other players!

ADF did well - he’s probably still tired from his match yesterday

No Greg. No sideline coaching.

That's where the spying Greek umpire comes in Danielle

Yes but Greg- coaching shouldn't be allowed, if it's not allowed.

We need more spying umpires.

Or to just ban Apostolos. it's obvious in the matches where the coaching has been a big deal- that Stef didn't even need it. So why do it?

I remember the spying Greek umpire - that was funny

I suggest some duct tape.

He had a lot of crowd support, ADF. I hope he is not too despondent.

He looks very Boris like there.

His first speech

Hope he behaves better than Boris

As they said in commentary, the warning s are water off a duck's back to Stef, so unless he gets a warning/penalty on a match point- then he's really not affected by the issues with the coaching. So until someone stops the match and removes Pa Tsitsipas - it's going to carry on.

A very Rafa-ish speech .

Yes, but Alejandro- your socks !

I feel sorry for Stef. I wonder if they argue about it.

Stef is about a year older than ADF- and talks to him as though he's 10 years older .

he's been around a bit.

Aww- their junior match memories.

He's an old soul.

I remember when he was arguing with him at the Next Gen finals, and chucking head sets.

i'm not sure Stef is really that big a fan of legal coaching!

Yes Stef is talking like an elder statesman

Did Albert tell him to wrap it up there?

Yes Raahh I don't think he takes a bit of notice of whatever Apostolos is saying anyway!

Hopefully he'll lose to him again.

Yes come on Stan

But Greg Stan has been training like a demon!
