- Qinwen Zheng's run to the #AusOpen F: #76, #54, #94, #95, #75 #93. That's an average ranking of #81. You can only beat who's in front of you, but this undoubtedly the easiest path to a slam final ever.
- Throwback to S. Cirstea hitting one of the fastest return of serves I have ever seen, WTA Bank of the West Classic in Stanford 2012 This is what fast courts looks like, you'd never see anything like this on the current tour. They've slowed down practically everything
00:00 - Bernarda Pera & Beatriz Haddad Maia had zero titles to their names prior to June 2022. They now have more WTA titles than Maria Sakkari
- Every year I'm reminded how beautiful the old venue / courts were in Miami. Bring it back to Key Biscayne
00:00 - Kontaveit (potentially) & Sakkari having the same career high ranking as Petra Kvitova is a joke. An insult tbh.
- They’ll never be them
00:45never let anyone tell you the modern atp is ugly bashing sometimes it's just ugly - Flavia Pennetta: "In my day Emma Raducanu would have never won a Slam." And she's right! Great take.
- I miss the old Western & Southern Open camera and court and I miss Empress and her wonderful backhand. I MISS OLD WTA!! A hill I will die on. The best times
- My tour guide in Zurich “On the left is a building that looks like a castle but it isn’t. We do not have kings in Switzerland except Roger Federer.”
- If Kanepi beats Sabalenka she'll have reached all four Grand Slam quarterfinals. A feat that not even Wozniacki, Jankovic or Radwanska achieved.
- They don't play matches like this anymore @rolandgarros I remember this match like it was yesterday. The drama, the scrambling, the clutchness. One of my all time favourites
