Stuttgart 2023 Final - Tiafoe d. Struff 4-6 • 7-6 • 7-6
Big Foe’s been one of my favorites for years, so happy to see him hit the top ten! He’s been toiling in the top 30 for a while now.

Nick Kyrgios loses to #64 Wu Yibing in Stuttgart, 7-5 6-3

No; assuming he loses those 200 points, he’d only drop to 35-40ish, depending on how those behind him do these next few weeks. He might not be seeded but he’s definitely in

It’s quiet because I just created the sub today! :)
Or should we have a different moniker than ‘sub,’ hmmmmmm
I’d wager Novak wins in straights, but the first set’ll be tight. 7-6, 6-3, 6-2

French Open: Iga Swiatek defeats Karolina Muchova to claim her third title at Roland Garros
Super happy for Iga! Muchova made some impressive adjustments in the second set, coming in more and cutting down on the errors, but the pressure got to her.

His first match since Tokyo in October last year. He’s gotta turn it on quick or hope for some withdrawals if he wants to be seeded; he’s #30 in the live rankings with 200 points to defend before Wimbledon (SF in Halle, R16 in Mallorca).

Do you follow any other grass tournaments in the lead up to Wimbledon?

That’s gonna depend on your location. I tend to just Google where I can watch the tournament for free and fire up my VPN. 9News in Australia has a bunch of tournaments available for free

Right now, we’re in grass season leading up to Wimbledon. There are grass tournaments on both the men’s and women’s sides up until Wimby starts on July 3.
The men have tournaments going on now in Stuttgart and s’Hertogenbosch. The big tune-ups are next week in Halle and London, and then Eastbourne and Mallorca the week before Wimbledon.
The women are in Nottingham and s’Hertogenbosch this week, Berlin and Birmingham next week, and Bad Homburg and Eastbourne the week after that.

They’re doing the same thing that Republicans in Congress are doing/proposing: gerrymandering and raising the voting age. Conservatism is at odds with democracy.

Relatedly, I had a user tell me that c/tennis is ‘the only community not showing up on search’ from a particular instance; any idea why that might be? I created the community on mobile, if that makes a difference. Thanks for putting this guide together!

Tommy Paul - London qualifying?
Reply in thread
I’ve definitely seen late entry wildcards all the time, but never a highly ranked late entry get forced into qualifying. It isn’t like Paul was ranked outside the top 50, vaulted into the top 20 after RG, so the tournament was using his pre-RG ranking for the draw. Guess we’ll have to see next week
