It's really sad to see relatively young players like Caro, Bine, Petra and Ana not caring about their careers anymore.

 

Ana does not belong in that group :p

Good win for Zverev. One of the most promising players of his generation, too bad his behaviour is not as mature as his game is.

 

He is 19, give him a year or two. Even two years younger he is a grown up compared to Kyrgios lol

Jesus, this surface in Indian Wells is deadly slow. Kvitova can't pass through average retriever like Gibbs, I am afraid what Radwanska is going to do to her 

 

Apart from shaky serve, I am pretty satisfied with her game. On faster court she should beat Gibbs in two...

 

But we love P3tra :hearts:

A win is a win :cheer:

She doesn't, but still being 28 yo makes you young in modern sport.

 

I'm kinda annoyed by the fact that most of those youngsters have bad tempers - Belinda, Jelena, Nick, Sascha, etc.

When was the last time you watched some Petra's match? :d She cannot hit through the ball as hard as she could in past, this is one of her better matches this year.

Spoiled kids... :d

But yes, Belinda's whining is going on my nerves. Ostapenko is crazy, Nick "detests" tennis :facepalm:

I reckon it was one of her Auusie Open gems :d

I noticed she doesn't hit as hard as before, guess it has to do with her mono and frequent gym activity lol She does look skinnier than ever

I miss 2011 Petra

    • Remember that Russia's IOC suspension was for a "breach of the Olympic Charter because it violated the territorial integrity of the NOC of Ukraine" not for any other reason. Restoring Russia without that changing would have huge repercussions for other nations.
    • It’s just a great weasel word.   We all want  to come back to International sport "when they are in compliance". But there are very differing opinions on what that means.
    • I doubt that.  It will mean only a doping rubber stamp and a promise not to swear at the ice skating moppets in public,
    • So, kind of forgotten about at the end of the summer season, we have two events to go in the World Triathlon Championship Series, the last WTCS regular season races of the year in Weihai , then the Final in  in mid-October.  All to play for because there are double points up for grabs in the last race, so effectively nothing really decided yet.  Races are tomorrow morning  time, so pretty much overnight in Europe.   Races are full Olympic length and apparently a hilly cycling course.  Here's the situation and preview for the Men.     World Triathlon Championship Series Weihai ready for another epic Wilde vs Yee battle | World Triathlon Championship Series   And for the women   Women's World Triathlon Championship Series rankings to heat up in Weihai | World Triathlon Championship Series    
    • "once it returns to compliance" would mean it renounces its claim to Crimea... Can't see that happening any time soon.
    • Maggie MacNeil   She was an Olympic, World (LC and SC) Pan American Games and Commonwealth Games Champion. Highly decorated career. 
    • when I raised the question, I forgot that that there was no U23 medals for women just a couple years ago...
    • it happens when you think too much ahead about the next match (vs Brazil) while you have a tough opponent ahead. they gave up 4 silly goals in the first half and then it was a mountain to climb.  Iran had a last penalty exactly in the last second which hit the bar   have to admit Iran played terrible the entire match and didn't deserve the win but Morocco is also a very ugly team. lots of acting, deceiving, diving and protesting in the 2nd half. putting Iran in 5 fouls very early which made the team playing cautious 
    • Morocco won after almost being stolen the victory by the refs. Those officials should be sent home after calling that joke foul in the last second.
    • and another medal. in Road Race this time.   Bronze despite a face crash in the middle of the race, her 5th medal of the year, 4th from 3 different sports World Championships
