Whatever you think of the Sinner case, it's wild to me that an athlete can negotiate their drugs suspension and that pick the least important part of the season in terms of majors. After the two part ban for Swiatek which her allowed her to play the WTA Finals, it's an awful look for tennis.

TikTok is so good right now with all the reactions to Kendrick’s Not Like Us at the Super Bowl. I’ve watched so many today and loved every single one. Especially enjoyed seeing the reactions and the love for Serena.

The little frowny face wrecked me

annoying thing about Australian Open coverage for me based in the UK and being too old to stay up late. Wake up to watch some tennis and all the matches i wanted to watch (i.e. WTA) are long finished and i have choice between Djokovic or that guy. Yikes.

That net hates Bencic

Oh no, this sucks, she was playing so well. Naomi can’t catch a break.

Wow, well done Learner Tien. When he lost the third set breaker, I had to go back to work, and I really thought it was all over and Medvedev would race through the next two set.

So pleased for Naomi that feels like a really important win for her…. but she faces another tough opponent next; if she can get through that match then everyone better watch out!

When are the grand slams gonna fix their websites. Every single slam we have the same issue, awful websites. Taken me at least 5 minutes to find the highlights I want to see. Finally found them but as usual they ain't really worth watching, so poorly edited.

‘that guy’ is only match on Eurosport at the moment so I’m watching skiing.

So I very much failed to stay awake and watch the Australian Open; falling asleep just after Zheng comeback from ahead to take the first set vs a very game Todoni. However, waking up this morning to see that I haven't actually missed that much.

Right I’m gonna try and stay up to watch Day 1 of the Australian Open. Let’s see how long I last.

I'm really not ready for the Australian Open, it feels like it was just Christmas like yesterday.

Chung Hyeon winning in Bali, his first title of any kind since 2019. The first step of a real comeback? One player who deserves a break after all those injuries.

Wow second straight set win in a row for Gauff over Swiatek and Sabalenka comes back to win in Brisbane. Women’s event in Melbourne gonna be wild. Cannot wait for the draw.

On no that’s awful for Osaka. Let’s hope she’s okay for the Australian Open. Both her and Tauson would be 1r nightmares for a lot of players

Squid Game 2 is so good. Binged it in two days. Love the direction they’ve taken and the new cast members. Can’t wait for the final part, coming this year!

Now that it is actually 2025, i am ready for the 2025 tennis season. Have I missed much?

the feds: stop trying to turn this guy into some cool antihero with a badass public image also the feds: *treat him like they’ve captured the joker*

I know times are tough but if you could donate or share this please. My friends have rescued this beautiful puppy but her leg needs surgery, any help much appreciated #puppy #rescue

This is Koda and today she turns 14 and is still going strong (if at a much slower pace). We lost her sister & littermate just over a year ago and we worried she wouldn’t cope without her bossy sister but she is soldiering on, happy and full of life, if sometimes a little cranky.

Sinner and now Swiatek no matter what you think about the verdicts; it’s not a great look for tennis when we only find out about these cases when a decision has been made.

My favourite tennis podcast! Please listen and support!

Murray coaching Djokovic is gonna be very interesting. Maybe Andy is just dipping his toe into coaching to see if it’s something he wants to do right now or later on. Cannot see it being a long term thing.
