Poor Giorgi, third final in a row and now title... But this time she really had quality opponent.

 

And Stephens! She either wins title or losses opening match of a tournament! Just too bad she lost matches in Melbourne, Indian Wells and Miami. First title on clay and it is Premier one. Four titles in last eight months. Her talent and athleticism very never indisputable. Mentality might failed her at aforementioned tournaments but her biggest issue is lack of motivation and laziness. Time to sort the things out. Well done :)

 

And what a bizarre third set from Monaco and Sock... :o 

 

Borna disappointed...

Juan :yes His first title since 3 years and he back to the top100 in ranking, good week for Argentinians men's players :)

 

And this is very important for Monaco, because rank list published on Monday will be used for cut off for Roland Garros main draw entry list.

 

And this is the first time since 2009 that two Argentine players win titles in the same week. Last time Del Potro won in Auckland and Nalbandian in Sydney

Yep, I know about this that ranking which will be published tomorrow will be used to RG main draw :d Janowicz is now 104th, so without any PR's used he would be last player with direct entry, but for sure some players will use PR's as Del Potro, Haas (:fingers:), Benneteau and Baker for example.

What's up with him actually? What kind of injury he is suffering from, apart the brain one? :d

There will be ITF $25k tournament in Pelham next week, and currently qualifications are underway.... Quirky information I read about one pair in the first qualifying round, Gail Falkenberg and Rosalyn Small...

Gail Falkenberg
Age: 69
Match record (since comeback in 2011): 0-32
Set record: 0-64
Game record: 29-384

Rosalyn Small
Age: 22
Match record: 0-25
Set record: 0-50
Game record: 9-297

 

And the big winner of this one is granny Gail who won 6-0 6-1!!! :woot:

    • There is an Italian roster listed on elite prospects despite no official roster announcement yet. However many people on the hfboards forum are questioning its legitimacy as there are many questionable players on the roster

    • But it seems to us that Norway wasn't as strong in Lillehammer 1994 as it was later? And not just in women's events. Generally, until 2000, Norway was much weaker in women's biathlon and women`s cross-country skiing. I remember in the 1990s, Italy's biggest rivals, Belmondo and di Centa, were Russia, when Norway somewhere further back and only in the classic style. Bente Martinsen- Skari, this is their first really strong girl in cross country, just about 2000, just like Liv Grete Skielbreid- Pioree in women`s biathlon at similar times.   Do you think, that is there any hope that thanks to the popularity of Haaland and football in general in Norway in recent years, winter sports such as biathlon or cross-country skiing will lose a little bit, becouse that?

    • This suggestion  @Dnl  made some months ago has also been implemented.   In each club, I have added a "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" record which takes the content from the Qualification by Nation tracker of that NOC.   People who see it can not edit the content, but it will be automatically updated once @Matej will update the record, and if you notice any mistake feel free to report it to Matej or in the record itself.   Club's admins can now edit the name of the section into their own language or change the spelling, I have used "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" for all the clubs. To do so, go inside the section, then click on "Manage Club"-"Edit this database Record" and change the name of the section:     By the way, if you are not a club's admin but you would like to edit things inside the club just let me know and I will give you the rights to do so. There can be more "admins" inside the club with the rights to edit and organize the sections, and that's not a role that require time or commitment.   Let's try to make all the clubs active during MiCo and when the LA28 qualifications will start!
