TENNIS- Who will win the Sunshine Double? Look out for the Bees! It's IW and Miami

[Raahh]

Come on Matteo!

Well done on the wins Ice and kazza - I once entered a competition to go to IW but didn’t win!

What’s all this about Djok’s player union apparently suing tennis? I would normally have sympathy as I think the season is too long and playing into the early hours is not good for anyone but as Djok (and I think Kyrgios) is involved I’m a bit cynical about the whole thing

I’ve just seen that Fizzy and my opinion on it is exactly the same!

Same here. There are some valid points but, as it's Cock, Dick and Pospisil driving it, they can f# right off!

Yawn, I didn’t pay that story about the player union any attention as soon as I saw who was behind it. I’m sure it’s all about money.

Jacob Fearnley and Billy ‘arris have both qualified for Miami.

It looks like Tennis TV is running another tournament predictor for Miami in case anyone else fancies trying to win a free subscription! You need to register a Tennis TV account to enter but it can be the free version.

Casper’s dad watching the Kovacevic/Kecmanovic match

Not a bad move to scope out the new opponent Jane Casper hasn't done too well lately, probably needs all the tips he can get!

Got a bit ahead of myself when Dick lost the first setvof his match. Sadly he went on to win. He will no doubt believe he's got the tournament in the bag now. He plays Khachanov next. Come on Karen!

'Never dink a dinker' ?

You've made that one up, Liam.

Jacob getting an MTO-Liam querying the fact it is for cramp, and this used to be something you couldn't have treatment for?

Jasmine Paolini has a match point - didn't start the match well at all, was 2 breaks down at one point in the first set. But has won in straight sets.

Whatever the physio did, it looks like it did the trick, Jacob doing a lot better in the 3rd set.

Well done Jacob.

Not going well for Norris- down a set and break to Bu.

I really like Bu, I enjoyed watching him play in the Asian swing last year. Cam seems to be struggling for form at the moment.

Glad that Jacob came through. He has to play Zverev next, unfortunately, although Sascha hasn’t been in the best form recently.

Elena Rybakina is another one who has been struggling lately (not sure how much of that is to do with things off court as much as on, understandable if so).

ADF is involved in a tight match with Struff. I like both- but would like ADF to get somewhere this year.

Dangerous move

I saw this the other day- he was a hitting partner with Djok a few times, and each time he said he was 'nasty'.

Can't decide what I think of Casper's kit. I sort of like the colour. But not so keen on the shorts, and I don't like the 'Daniil -green' stripe on the top- that doesn't seem to 'go'.

Oh dear, Casper has lost the first set.

Not going well for Casper at all.

He's playing better now, but Miomir is serving so much better.

Casper will probably do better if I don't watch. .

That was a good pass though.

Spoke too soon. Come on Casper!!

Phew!! That was a hard won set. I don't need a new Rafa, Casper.

Come on Casper! I don’t like his kit at all.
