OT: The Tennis thread

[Bloody Brian Burke]

On the plus side, I saw some Davis Cup footage for the first time in my life.

Hope he learns his lesson. Shapovalov is someone who could be a good 1 for a long time for this country in tennis.

 

[Dacks]

Honestly, if he had the ability to make that shot on purpose, he would have been winning the match, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

Ouch. I hope the ump can recover quickly.

Genie is no welcher as she paid up for losing her Super Bowl bet and took a lucky guy out to a Brooklyn Nets game last night.

It's hard to deny that she certainly enjoys the fashion/celebrity fame she receives and maybe I'm being naive because I'm a fan, but I still think the drive is there to win tennis tournaments. The thing is the WTA is after Serena quite frankly a joke as far as trying to pick who will win a tourney week in and week out. Genie should have won that match against Coco Vandeweghe at the Aussie Open and Coco made it all the way through to the semi-finals, so she's not that far away despite her current ranking.

Genie will be on Celebrity Apprentice in 2 years.

Real Housewives of Longueuil in 3 years.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Genie will be on Celebrity Apprentice hosted by former President Donald Trump in 2 years.

i could certainly see that

To steal a line from DW: No matter how many times it is posted and re-posted, I will never tire of it.

Good on Genie for living up to her Twitter bet and she looks amazing in SI. Sure it's not tennis but if I looked like she did I'd certainly be flaunting it too.

Milos is tall (6"5"), but I think the Golden Bear is shrinking (or is standing in a hole).

standing in one of Milos divots ?

Was Milos able to finish all 18? I'm not sure he has the stamina...
