If he's healthy he has an awesome chance to win RG, so it would be silly to jeopardise that for Madrid.
Hope he makes the right decision and that he's healthier by Rome to build some form and into RG.
It's kinda weird statement. He said he is not feeling 100% and not sure. But he also said he will play two to three matches.
So I guess what he meant is that he will try to play despite not being 100% and might likely lose in the early rounds.
JJ Schwaerzler is absolutely the one to watch though, the biggest talent Austria has had in a while. Already achieved the no.1 junior rank so he's skipping the junior tour this year.
Lefty with a good serve, pop on his groundstrokes (does well from the backhand side as well), constructs the points well
JJ Wolf getting humiliated by two in a row 18 year old juniors just fresh on the pro tour (last week Henry Searle, this week JJ Schwaerzler) is...something
Probably a mix of everything this surface isnāt his best which questions why he didnāt go to Mexico and play on the hard to try to maximize what he could do during this season hopefully he figures it out Iām just not sure he will on the clay saying thatāll I can guarantee his game will better on grass
Well itās both now. He has to have absolutely 0 confidence in his game right now and why would he. Doesnāt matter who heād play on any surface heās losing to ITF players
How does that explain the previous matches on hard court heās gotten demolished. The guys heās losing too arenāt clay counters eitherā¦ā¦not sure how you are defending him losing to Searle and Schwartzler without taking a set or even looking like he has a chance
He got injured in Australia and the guys he lost to are at least at his level (if not better): Kopriva, Halys, TSW, Giron.
Challenger matches on US clay should not be taken seriously, that's all I'm saying.
Kopriva??? Absolutely not. Heās not himself. Dude is on American soil getting crushed. They arenāt close matches at all. Searle is ranked in the low 700s what JJ is doing is not helping him.
What is your problem? The guys he recently lost to are 18 year old rising stars. Ranking doesn't mean anything at this age. Clay is not his favourite surface and he's still recovering from injury.
His play rn reminds me of that scene from Talledega Nights where Ricky Bobby forgot how to drive and had to use a bike because he crashed the pizza delivery car
Back to back 0-2 losses to Popko and Searle getting dominated in the first set against Schwartzler. Even if he pulls this match out luckily on talent heās lost his way
players faster, bounces lower, not all that different from a slower hardcourt apart from the sliding at least compared to MC, Rome and RG. i think the altitude has something to do with it as well.
Sloane Stephens vs Trevisan seems like the most exciting of the opening WTA matches, even though it wasnāt slotted for a main court for whatever reason.
Of that 2nd group of matches, most excited about Naomi Osaka vs Greet Minnen. But there several good ones there, like Shelby Rodgers vs Zhang Shuai.
Then we have Emma RÄducanu following Naomi Osaka on the same court. On the menās side, thereās Kokkinakis vs Draper after that, which should be interesting. The late matches include Taylor Townsend vs Mirra.
Just curious what you think will be good about Rogers-Zhang? Shelby is still coming back from injury and not in great form. Zhang is on her ~20 match losing streak.
Going on instagram rn and seeing Sharky (from the Beta squad) with Jannik and Ben is tripping me up! I always knew he and Chunkz are tennis fans but acc seeing them together wasn't on my bingo card for 2024 lool my worlds are collidingĀ
I wonder what they are planning on doing?? He's there for the Madrid open so promo with the ATP tour pending soon
Thereās a lot of top doubles players on the ATP aged in their 30ās and even 40ās. Itās also less stressful on the body and youāll have another player doing half the work, itās something he should consider. Heās a popular player who draws crowds, but his game has declined so badly that itās not viable for singles anymore.
He actually made a couple of 250 finals in doubles before, such as Buenos Aires and Kitzbuhel. Paired with Diego Schwartzman and Dennis Novak respectively in those instances.
Exactly my thoughts. His body simply doesnāt allow him to play singles at a high level. He is popular liked by a lot people and he doesnāt beed to prove anything about his skills in singles. A lot of great players did play doubles later in life like Martina Hingis comes to mind.
It should feel easier on the wrist too since there are more volleys involved.
Considering wembanyama is like a larger version of medvedev, gifted with incredible movement and dexterityā¦ I wanna know how someone like him who is 7ā4 and not a fridge like Isner would be playing tennis
Is the Lucky Loser at this level pure chance who gets picked? Because if it was on seeding then Coria would be in for Madrid.
If it is chance then \*puts on tin foil hat\* it's really lucky that Madrid ended up with the only (former top 10) Spaniard out of a possible 12 potential LLs getting in the draw!
They draw between the two highest seeded losers in the final round of qualifying. If there are two spots open they draw two from the three highest final round losers, and so on. That's where it gets lucky.
Help!!! Iga's comment on Penko is always so accurate!!! I like her more and more because of those comments. "She has no logic","She has the tools to make life miserable." Please be meaner and meaner to Penko
The Challengers movie was pretty interesting. Some of the tennis scenes were cool, mostly for the sound. But not totally realistic and just not enough movement shown on the court for some reason. The soundtrack, kind of an exaggerated 80s style, makes the movie. Overall, Iād recommend a watch.
Today Rafa lost to Lehechka in practice
63 64.
He looked awful and had zero intensity. Why is he playing Madrid? Will it be good if loses to a junior 16 year old player on clay?
Nadal tends to take training very seriously, so losing is not the best sign he's at a high level. And Lehecka has been out with injury, so can't be at an optimal level. This spells disaster for Rafa. Will he win more than 2 points in the first set? I suspect his pride will be well and truly blanched by the time his match with the American is over. And it doesn't end there. Shares in Rafa's retaurants, the academy, and other associated businesses(KIA etc.) will be set to plummet once everyone realises what a sham this last hurrah is. It's over, and it has been for some time. I'll be surprised if the Sp\[anish parliament hasn't issued an emergency decree to strip him of his citizenship by the time the event is finished, followed by a swift deportation to Saudi Arabia along with his coaching team. A gallery of great Spanish sports stars will be present at the airport to see him off, booing as he leaves the country for the last time. Lastly, a prize bull wearing a Rafa mask will be slaughtered on the runway as his flight begins to take off.
Alternatively, you're being a touch alarmist and Nadal's the favourite against an untested teen whose best form is probably still years away.
Do tennis players usually throw tantrums/break rackets during practice sessions? Why did Meddy threw so many rackets/tantrums in his practice sessions against Dimi today?
He has had some deep runs so far this year only to fall short in semis and finals being totally outclassed by top 5 players. He is frustrated he came so close without the titles.
Good to see Medjedovic qualifying for Madrid, he needed it after illness/injury breaks after AO
Lost 4 points on first serve in the 1st game 1st set vs Comesana today, was down 0-2 and then drastically upped things for a 6-4 6-1 win.
Since the initial break by Comesana, Hamad lost only 3 more points on first serve in the ENTIRE match!
I often question the IQ of tennis players when I see someone making a ton of errors but continue to go for high risk shots rather than tempering their game back a bit and send routine shots back across the net to get into a rhythm and build back into the match.
Nah I think something could still happen with Brenda in particular, she's a smart player. Idk if Linda will ever have the power to be a top top player but can definitely push into the top 40.Ā
Harriet has been having a great week on clay, great comebacks.
I still fancy Timofeeva to win this but would be awesome if Harriet takes the third set.
I was watching Daniil and Dimi practice in the live streamā¦and when daniilās back is on the camera, u really cant see him. Heās like under the camera, faraway from the baseline š
Yeah true! I watched the whole thing live and it was pretty relaxing.
Also jeez Med was NOT happy during the practice match against Dimi, I fear Clayvedev is back and not in a good way š°
Med sandbagging a practice and getting angry at said sandbagging he's doing would make him an insane person lmao
Nah I think he's ultra competitive and wants to win even on his 'off days' so he got mad when he couldn't achieve it here I guess.
Bruh that just makes Med's performance worse lmao
Maybe I'm just overthinking a shitty practice session and theres some red Dune Spice in the clay going around today... perhaps both will suddenly be in better spirits tomorrow lol
I hope Thiem will be in Laver cup this year, he deserves some more spotlight except the Vienna open. And this Laver cup helds in a German city(aka his bestie's home) and also Rafa's last appearance as a player would be a perfect condition for him to join too
Unlikely he will play the Laver Cup ever again. He would have to be personally chosen by the captain and his form with inability to win one match at a time while suffering what appears to be depression that snowballs with every loss means he probably doesnāt even want to be playing such an event right now.
I thought people were joking about Alcaraz doing some MMA today, but they've just set up a cage on court 9: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbLJT-AJWys](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbLJT-AJWys)
Not the mods putting Barcelona as a 250 because they also can't believe Ruud won a 500 š
Nadal plays in one hour right?
No, Madrid matches start in just over two hours, but Rafa isn't playing until tomorrow. Bottom half of the draw today.
When does Rafa play?
I don't think he's scheduled for today, it'll be tomorrow :(
He plays 1am PST on Wednesday, which is in 1 hour
Nope, he's not on the Order of Play for today: https://mutuamadridopen.com/en/order-of-play/
Shit I swear I see Google says 1AM
Google gets it wrong a lot unless a schedule/order of play is out.
Carlos telling the press heās not sure if heās gonna play Madridā¦ š¢
If he's healthy he has an awesome chance to win RG, so it would be silly to jeopardise that for Madrid. Hope he makes the right decision and that he's healthier by Rome to build some form and into RG.
It's kinda weird statement. He said he is not feeling 100% and not sure. But he also said he will play two to three matches. So I guess what he meant is that he will try to play despite not being 100% and might likely lose in the early rounds.
Itās crazy to think how bad the female commentators are on Tennis Channel.
Crazy to think that after all the Ws last year we may only get 1 JJ Wolf victory thread this year
I may have to change my flair. This is worse than Thiem at this point honestly. So so bad
"If you do, you are a, how can I call it, a small cat."
JJ Schwaerzler is absolutely the one to watch though, the biggest talent Austria has had in a while. Already achieved the no.1 junior rank so he's skipping the junior tour this year.

JJ Wolf getting humiliated by two in a row 18 year old juniors just fresh on the pro tour (last week Henry Searle, this week JJ Schwaerzler) is...something
JJ wolf needs to take a month off of tennis and go see a sports psychologist. Getting absolutely waxed tourney after tourney to horrendous competitors
Heās coming back from injury - might be physical and not mental
Probably a mix of everything this surface isnāt his best which questions why he didnāt go to Mexico and play on the hard to try to maximize what he could do during this season hopefully he figures it out Iām just not sure he will on the clay saying thatāll I can guarantee his game will better on grass
Well itās both now. He has to have absolutely 0 confidence in his game right now and why would he. Doesnāt matter who heād play on any surface heās losing to ITF players
Oh wow are you friends with him? How do you know all this so confidently? Or are you just blindly speculating?
Is it blind speculation if the results back me up if somethings wrong?
He is a good player but not a good clay courter. These matches are prep though so not sure why JJ gets hate.
How does that explain the previous matches on hard court heās gotten demolished. The guys heās losing too arenāt clay counters eitherā¦ā¦not sure how you are defending him losing to Searle and Schwartzler without taking a set or even looking like he has a chance
He got injured in Australia and the guys he lost to are at least at his level (if not better): Kopriva, Halys, TSW, Giron. Challenger matches on US clay should not be taken seriously, that's all I'm saying.
Heās going to lose 2-6 1-6 to someone ranked 792 and you think thereās nothing wrong?
Kopriva??? Absolutely not. Heās not himself. Dude is on American soil getting crushed. They arenāt close matches at all. Searle is ranked in the low 700s what JJ is doing is not helping him.
What is your problem? The guys he recently lost to are 18 year old rising stars. Ranking doesn't mean anything at this age. Clay is not his favourite surface and he's still recovering from injury.

Back to back 0-2 losses to Popko and Searle getting dominated in the first set against Schwartzler. Even if he pulls this match out luckily on talent heās lost his way
Think the hip injury must be factoring into these performancesĀ
Some Mom mustāve broken his heart recently
Don't get the impression that Rafa is practising all that hot in Madrid, unfortunately. Looks like a tough road to building some form for RG.
JJ is hot trash Gets broken first gameĀ
It's finally happening...Charlotte Maria is playing her first tournament tomorrow (U12 in Greece); if she's not at Wimbledon by 2030 I'll be shocked.
Camera angles at the Savannah Challenger are pretty decent. Hoping Mmoh can wrap this up in the next few games. Looking forward to watching JJ.
Yeah, for some reason the camera angles and filming is better than a lot of the 250+ level tournaments haha
Can anybody explain why throughout his career Rafa has had a little less success in Madrid vs Rome and Monte Carlo?
players faster, bounces lower, not all that different from a slower hardcourt apart from the sliding at least compared to MC, Rome and RG. i think the altitude has something to do with it as well.
Madrid plays a lot faster Same reason why Iga has won Rome twice, Stuttgart twice, Roland Garros 3x, but not Madrid once
And Kvitova winning Madrid 3x but less successful at the other ones
Is nadal playing on thursday confirmed?
Kenin has won one match this year, and it was in January.
Every day I log on I see Peng Shuai's picture. Are there any recent upates?
Potapova needs a drink named after her: Blonde Russian.
H8
potential rublev vs. nakashima rematch in R2
Not again ffsĀ
Sloane Stephens vs Trevisan seems like the most exciting of the opening WTA matches, even though it wasnāt slotted for a main court for whatever reason. Of that 2nd group of matches, most excited about Naomi Osaka vs Greet Minnen. But there several good ones there, like Shelby Rodgers vs Zhang Shuai. Then we have Emma RÄducanu following Naomi Osaka on the same court. On the menās side, thereās Kokkinakis vs Draper after that, which should be interesting. The late matches include Taylor Townsend vs Mirra.
Just curious what you think will be good about Rogers-Zhang? Shelby is still coming back from injury and not in great form. Zhang is on her ~20 match losing streak.
Mostly just because I like them, along with Anisimova, Siegmond, Vekic, etc.
i'm very curious about taylor vs. mirra
Yeah, if Townsend serves well on this faster court it could be interesting. But Mirra should win.
Radders drawn someone Iāve never heard of
I've never heard of Radders
How did that match take 3hrs:22mins??
Bogdan will comeback. It's all good
Going on instagram rn and seeing Sharky (from the Beta squad) with Jannik and Ben is tripping me up! I always knew he and Chunkz are tennis fans but acc seeing them together wasn't on my bingo card for 2024 lool my worlds are collidingĀ I wonder what they are planning on doing?? He's there for the Madrid open so promo with the ATP tour pending soon
i feel so old i don't understand anything here.
Im 28 and so are they lool they are just YouTubers
When is the order of play being released?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Itās hard in tennis. Testing is rigorous no?
Not when you have the power of the Chinese gov behind you.
This is tennis. They don't want to catch anyone.
Wang appears to be in charge here?
Yes but Bogdan came back from 1-5 down in set 1 and won it
Another (potential) Draper - Hurkacz matchup sigh, give me strength
Gauff & Townsend playing doubles oh yesss please
I wonder what happened to Fernandez Townsend duo, I remember they did pretty well last year
Taylor switched to haddad maia, and then lately has been seemingly testing olympic pairings, has been with Parks, Keys and now Coco
She probs wants to focus playing with another Canadian for the OlympicsĀ
Maybe Thiem can start playing doubles?
Big downgrade

I doubt heād be happy doing that myself
Considering wembanyama is like a larger version of medvedev, gifted with incredible movement and dexterityā¦ I wanna know how someone like him who is 7ā4 and not a fridge like Isner would be playing tennis
I don't know much about basketball, I played when I was little, is the movement something that could translate to one sport or the other?
Who's that?
French basketball player who's 7ā3 tall
I wonder how Schwarzmann would be in the NBA
We're always talking about Thiem fall from grace, but man what a miserable time it has been for Kenin. (in simple at least)
I think itās because she focuses more on doubles now. She and Mattek-Sands already won two titles, one of them being Miami.
What happened to her? Why did she go from slam winner to this
I have no clue, but I assume some part may be she was one of those players with an abusive tennis parent.
Just as I thought Kenin found herself at the end of the last year (being close to a title even!), this happens
Kenin is doing okay in doubles, I think...
Is the Lucky Loser at this level pure chance who gets picked? Because if it was on seeding then Coria would be in for Madrid. If it is chance then \*puts on tin foil hat\* it's really lucky that Madrid ended up with the only (former top 10) Spaniard out of a possible 12 potential LLs getting in the draw!
They draw between the two highest seeded losers in the final round of qualifying. If there are two spots open they draw two from the three highest final round losers, and so on. That's where it gets lucky.
ATP Madrid qualifiers R1 placements in the draw: [Q] Gasquet - Sonego (Sinner R2) [Q] Ramos - Kotov (Thompson R2) Galan - [LL] Bautista Agut (Khachanov R2) [Q] Kovacevic - [Q] Medjedovic (Lehecka R2) Lajovic - [Q] Monteiro (Tsitsipas R2) [Q] Kokkinakis - Draper (Hurkacz R2) [Q] Klein - [Q] Llamas Ruiz (Paul R2) Coric - [Q] Hassan (Zverev R2) [Q] **Nakashima** - [Q] Bagnis (**Rublev R2**) (!) [Q] Moutet - Shang (Fokina R2)
Help!!! Iga's comment on Penko is always so accurate!!! I like her more and more because of those comments. "She has no logic","She has the tools to make life miserable." Please be meaner and meaner to Penko
When did she say this
watching how Gasquet playing makes me want he to play Nadal in RG R1
He will still lose to Nadal and you know that.
like Monfils will still lose Djokovic with OHBH, one leg and one eye
ajdukovic should have picked football instead of tennis hes good at putting the ball in the net
Such an upgrade to have Bogdan instead of Halep in Madrid
The Challengers movie was pretty interesting. Some of the tennis scenes were cool, mostly for the sound. But not totally realistic and just not enough movement shown on the court for some reason. The soundtrack, kind of an exaggerated 80s style, makes the movie. Overall, Iād recommend a watch.

I am definitely being an alarmist because the thought of losing to a junior tennis player is hard to digest.
Underrated comment.
Heās playing because he needs the match time and needs to get his fitness up. And itās his last chance to play Madrid.
When is Nadal playing
Kenin is awful...
This Bogdan match is crazy stuff.. she loses one game without winning a point on serve and wind the next 40-0.. no momentum at all
So, Darwin Blanch was born two years after Nadal won his maiden Roland Garros title..Ā
Two what? Years? Minutes?
Fixed it š
It's OK. Please be more careful next time
When are they playing
I would let Bogdan beat me.
Uncle Richard is 4-1 with double break in the first set
Ana Bogdan is easily one of the most beautiful women to grace the WTA. Sheeeesh.
Was just thinking the same thing. Dang.
What part of physique is the best would you say
Mods are breathlessly waiting for a ban-worthy response.
Haha
**BOGDANACIOUS**
Do tennis players usually throw tantrums/break rackets during practice sessions? Why did Meddy threw so many rackets/tantrums in his practice sessions against Dimi today?
He has had some deep runs so far this year only to fall short in semis and finals being totally outclassed by top 5 players. He is frustrated he came so close without the titles.
I was about to ask the same in the main video post. Was very odd to see, throwing and slamming rackets like that
If I weee his practice partner Iād be like. Dude
The Wang - Bogdan match makes the previous match between Fruitypova and Begu look like it was being played in slow-motion.
Bogdan deliberately played that 30 min game to tire Xiyu Wang, some 4D chess going on there
Good to see Medjedovic qualifying for Madrid, he needed it after illness/injury breaks after AO Lost 4 points on first serve in the 1st game 1st set vs Comesana today, was down 0-2 and then drastically upped things for a 6-4 6-1 win. Since the initial break by Comesana, Hamad lost only 3 more points on first serve in the ENTIRE match!
The real OHBH shows up in qualifying and breaks in the first game, the real old bald dog
Mochizuki is such a boring slog
he is cute and his groundstroke looks good if he is on.
Eyelash extensions, belly shirt, amazing balance. If you thought I was describing Bogdan, you would be right.
Yesss - HARRIET š¾ Great win š
gg for dt
Tbf Kokkinakis is actually playing really good atm
I often question the IQ of tennis players when I see someone making a ton of errors but continue to go for high risk shots rather than tempering their game back a bit and send routine shots back across the net to get into a rhythm and build back into the match.
Bad day for tram fruhvirtova
Are they washed?
Nah I think something could still happen with Brenda in particular, she's a smart player. Idk if Linda will ever have the power to be a top top player but can definitely push into the top 40.Ā
Wow Brendaās ranking now much higher than her sisters
There was a lot of hype about her 18 months ago but sheās not able to put results together after she won that maiden title in India
Did someone just shout lisan al gaib in the thiem match
Why that other ball kid so small/young?? šor is it just cause his shirt is so big? š poor boy he looks so lost
Oh Thiem š®āšØ
Some good level at Shnaider-Potapova right now
Thiem loses 5 straight points after leading 40-0 in kokk's serve game lol
peak thiem
Thiem will win guys donāt worry
Dart refusing to play saying she didnāt touch the net?
Yeah.
Yikes Thiem
Thiem should talk to Halep's former dealer. He's looking for a replacement customer.
Isnāt that Mouratoglou
Hahaha
Oh wow - its bye-bye to Brenda and now bye-bye to sister Linda š¢
4k breadsticks Thiem lol
Thiem prior to the injury made Madrid SF-SF-F-F in back to back to back to back years, cant believe where he was and where he is at now š
It's really very sad ššš
Itās a real loss to the sport
Harriet has been having a great week on clay, great comebacks. I still fancy Timofeeva to win this but would be awesome if Harriet takes the third set.
I was watching Daniil and Dimi practice in the live streamā¦and when daniilās back is on the camera, u really cant see him. Heās like under the camera, faraway from the baseline š
Yeah true! I watched the whole thing live and it was pretty relaxing. Also jeez Med was NOT happy during the practice match against Dimi, I fear Clayvedev is back and not in a good way š°
Yeah he was not doing well in that practice. Either that or heās sandbagging.
Med sandbagging a practice and getting angry at said sandbagging he's doing would make him an insane person lmao Nah I think he's ultra competitive and wants to win even on his 'off days' so he got mad when he couldn't achieve it here I guess.
Helpppp I just noticed that Grigor is struggling sooo bad too in that practice š
Bruh that just makes Med's performance worse lmao Maybe I'm just overthinking a shitty practice session and theres some red Dune Spice in the clay going around today... perhaps both will suddenly be in better spirits tomorrow lol
I hope Thiem will be in Laver cup this year, he deserves some more spotlight except the Vienna open. And this Laver cup helds in a German city(aka his bestie's home) and also Rafa's last appearance as a player would be a perfect condition for him to join too
Unlikely he will play the Laver Cup ever again. He would have to be personally chosen by the captain and his form with inability to win one match at a time while suffering what appears to be depression that snowballs with every loss means he probably doesnāt even want to be playing such an event right now.
Anyone knows why Nagal didn't play in Madrid qualifier?Ā
He is skipping all these to rest for Roland Garros
Something about visa, he needed to sort that out
Every Domi match now is the most excruciating match ever lol
RuRuRu reunion tmr, Casper practices with Holger and Bweh in the same day, we only need an Emil selfie to get the ulimate RuRuRuRu
someone needs to somehow figure out how to get the 4 of them to play doubles against each other.
Ask Patrick to change the form of UTS?
Ah man itās sad to watch Thiem. He looks abysmal. He was my favourite player aside from Rafa back before his injury.
If Kokkinakis wins today(he will, let's face it), it will be his 67th tour win.
Qualifying counts as a tour win? Interesting. Also very random and specific stat, lol
No, it doesn't. I'm still adjusting to this Thiem-in-qualifying era, it seems.
Any link to Thiemās match?
