TENNIS: Dubai, Golden Swing, USA

[JaneJeffer]

No you're wrong Raahh Djokovic should be awarded the point every time someone hesitates before returning the ball because he's the goat 😛

Luca used to have a huge poster of Djok on his bedroom wall. His poor mother.

Exactly Raahh And* *99% of the comments i saw agree and say Djok was in the wrong and the umpire explained the position clearly. He wouldn't have complained if he won the point and to raise it with Luca afterwards was just unnecessary.
I'm hoping he pulls out of more than just Miami butbut that's just wishful thinking. Of course, it would be sweeter if he played and just kept being beaten

Jane maybe Luca was using the poster aim his serve at?
kazza I know what you mean- it would be great to think this is the beginning of the end, and Djok lost early all the time. Massive blow to the massive ego. But we've been here before.
Does feel a bit like the bif 3 could be no more sooner rather than later (Rafa retiring won't feel quite so bad, if Djok goes too!).

I am score watching and Stef is struggling against Lehecka- maybe the shenanigans with Djok and the shopping trolley was ill advised for the both of them .

Yes with hindsight maybe the shopping trolley shenanigans were not such a good idea

I've just put it on . Jiri looks very determined!

Well done Jiri. Tomas is obviously an excellent coach

Well done Jiri!

Well done Jiri! I only saw a bit of it but looked like he played really well.

Carlitos putting the sunscreen on, good boy!

I am enjoying this tournament so much more than I was yesterday

I randomly have commentary on TennisTV today.

Funny that .

Wave to you all - you are my main source of tennis news.

The joy, the joy, the joy, of off you fock Djock...................... not much better to wake up to!!

👋 hi magi

Hi Jane! Off to bed, grandmother duties demain a 08.30H!!

(Do not forget I am an hour ahead of you.)

Sleep tight! Here's a little bedtime story:

"No titles this year, that's not something I'm used to" said Novak.
"Bahahaha" said everyone.
The End

I'd buy that.

We could make it a best seller.

And hello and good night Magi.

It's been a good day!

Jane

Well done Carlitos.

A tournament is always more enjoyable without Djok Ice

Goodnight magi

I like the bedtime story Jane - hopefully no more titles for the rest of the year

Well done Carlos - would like to watch Sinner and Shelton’s match but won’t be able to stay up that late

Luca Nardi says that he’s going to keep his Novak poster up - hope he doesn’t have nightmares …

If it is anything like that horrific ATP picture, Fizzy I think I would be burning it.

I would have liked to watch Casper and Gael, but obviously I can't. I have Navarro and Sabalenko, but am a bit bored.

What is nice, though, is Annabel Croft is commentating.

First set to Navarro.
