We share the victory today @hckošice
 

Not so fast. WTA has become very chimeric in recent years. Osaka has all the Big Tech support so she's gonna be sold like a new super star but I don't see such a level of dominance that the likes of Evert, Navratilova or Graf enjoyed before. She is very good on hard courts but clay and grass are not her best surfaces. She hasn't even reached Round 4 in Roland Garros and Wimbledon yet!

UEFA Youth League 2020/21 cancelled
 
The UEFA Executive Committee has decided to cancel the 2020/21 edition of the UEFA Youth League due to the Covid-19 pandemic and its effects on the staging of competitions.
 
The UEFA Executive Committee stressed that there is no possibility to further postpone the start of the competition and that the health and safety of youth players must be given highest possible priority.

that was too fast, I was making my sandwich, getting ready to watch the match and missed the goal 
 
while he looks smart on the field, outside the field he is one of the dumbest person I know 

No. Listen here from 0:14-0:15 for a pronounciation.
 
 

I have no words for this. So proud to have someone like him to represent my country!
 
Semifinals will be tough and I don't know if he will have the energy. Regardless we are very proud 

last year he made exactly the same against Novak in RG Semis , but he didn't finish his job in 5th set , now he's done it way to go , only 2 players before came back from 2-0 against Nadal 

and i thought that Karatsev is a young talent among the past days that causes some surprises , but he's actually 27 and just making his GS debut what a milestone for him hopefully the story hasn't came to an end he's the 1st player in open era to qualify to a GS Semis on his debut what a proud moment

R.I.P.

and another footballer from that generation just joined him today, Ali Ansarian died from COVID 19 at the age of 43.
 
not a World Cup player but still very famous and popular because of his club achievements (and also his later career as an actor and a TV host). both guys were at the same TV/internet live show few weeks ago and both got infected there.
 
 

All show and no respect: a night with the Nickheads
 
 
Shame on you Sydney Morning Herald! How dare you not support the Australian fans of the Australian player in the Australian tournament! Even people from less democratic countries know better. 

That would be incredibly difficult and long to do for either of my countries (Canada and the US)...

Next : Dimitrov

LOL @ Djokovic, his injury must be really bad. Very brave that he fought through it.

In the end Serena proved her confidence and experience, impressed with her movility and fitness overall considering the times and not playing a lot lately because of the pandemic. Still her first serve was very shaky but once she recovered it, was enough to hold her serve. Savalenka could be a great player for the future but she is lacking confidene, experience under pressure and calming down her temper.
 
 

Being an idiot doesn't make you entertaining

we're back to empty courts again  at least for 5 days 

FULL TRANSCRIPT
Fognini: You have been f***ing lucky, you should apologise, I didn’t disrespect you until now.
Caruso: What are you talking about?
Fognini: You won four identical lucky points.
Caruso: What are you talking about?
Fognini: Can’t I say you have been lucky?
Caruso: I didn’t dare to say a single world in the whole match.
Fognini: I said something because you called for it.
Caruso: I didn’t dare to say a single world in the whole match, enough now.
Fognini: Can’t I say you have been lucky? What’s the problem?
Caruso: You can do whatever you want.
Fognini: So why are you breaking my balls now? I said you have been lucky, if I’m wrong saying it, I’m wrong. Don’t attack me.
Caruso: I didn’t attack you. I’m telling you it’s not the way to behave because I didn’t tell you a single world. Let’s say I didn’t expect that from you.
Fognini: What did you not expect? I told you you have been lucky, you didn’t like it, what should I say?
Caruso: It’s not the way to do it.
Fognini: Why? What’s the problem?
Fognini will face Australia’s Alex de Minaur in the third round.
It’s sure to be... interesting.

Told you Kaja would win. 

They are Aussies! So they are "proud" and "passionate" and "enthusiastic" so it's okay for them.
 
But if they were Greek or Serbian for example, they would be labeled as "rowdy" and "drunk" and "nationalistic" 

Bianca Andreescu and Petra Kvitova OUT
