TENNIS: Hard court season continues. Scream if you want to go faster.

[JaneJeffer]

Zheng has been great all week though, all year really.

Well done Coco, really happy for her.

They are dragging out the end of this, feel sorry for Qinwen sitting there.

And it will all bt full of gushing about how amazing Riyadh are for hosting etc etc.

Still find the fact the women are competing for a trophy called the BJK Cup in Riyadh somewhat ironic...

"Way more cheerful than I thought it was going to be"

Denis won in Belgrade and of course Djok had to show up

But we have t-shirts!!

Go away, man.

I missed the end of the women's final - I made the mistake of letting DH watch the footy - sounds like it turned into a good match - well done Coco!

If the players don't know the tiebreak rules how are we supposed to know? I think it should be the same in all tournaments - it's very confusing!

Why did Djok turn up at Belgrade? He's like a bad penny - we definitely need to get those t-shirts printed. Is he still threatening to turn up to the Davis Cup for Rafa's farewell? Just go away!

The men's finals start today - time for some more maths fun

So the men (singles) are starting now in Turin.

And the 'explanation of the round robin' has already started.

First singles match of this looks a lot better attended than the first match for the women!

Daniil, and Taylor. Daniil hasn't won anything this year , will be wanting to end the year on a better note.

Stop talking about Djok. He isn't in Turin, and we do not care.

Oh dear Daniil

Oh dear, 3 double faults for Daniil in a game, a very destroyed racquet, and a lost set.

It really is all going south for Daniil today. He might as well go home, if he carries on with these antics.

Yikes Daniil is scaring me now

It's not good. I saw a clip of his daughter seeing his picture again- like she did last year. He should be thinking about how it looks to her when he starts acting up like this. And I really like Daniil, but it's like he's been spending too much time with Andrey.

Didn't really have any of these shenanigans with the women, either.

Come on Daniil, pull yourself together. Or you will be fined for tanking, never mind anything else.

I'm surprised he didn't get punished more harshly for breaking the mic

There might be other other sanctions afterwards, financial anyway. If the mic had been closer to a spectator or camera man, I think he would have been off court now.

It's a shame, he's a popular bloke.

Taylor managed to stay in the zone despite all of that

Daniil pretty much handed him that, not that Taylor wasn't serving well.

The crowd must be pissed off

Taylor did do very well to block out the distractions.

Well, first match and it's all going on already

Yes, looked like it was going the distance, and then it got interesting for all the wrong reasons- and short.

It's interesting that the commentators didn't make that much of it compared to how they would if it was someone else doing it

I suppose if you are going to kick off, the Nastase group is the one to be in,
