@tennis
Sinner appears to be cramping pretty badly, giving Evans the opportunity to take the second set in a tiebreaker. They head to the third and it seems hard to see how Sinner stays in this match as he stretches his quad after every other point. And yet, somehow he goes up a break to start the 3rd.

The race for the last 4 spots in the WTA finals is heating up. I *think* Pegula may be able to qualify if she reaches the final in Tokyo. But to do that she would have to beat Kasatkina & then Sakkari possibly. Sakkari beat her in DC this year so could be a tough prospect.

Sakkari is also in contention but it's a tough road. She is 400 points behind Jabuer who's 8th in the
race and also playing this week.

I'm worried that when Andy Murray finally retires it may also mark the death of the word "chuntering" from the English language.

Seriously, google "Andy Murray chuntering", see how many hits there are, then ask yourself if you have ever, ever, heard that word in any other context?

At this point it exists purely to describe the mid-match demeanour of a single Scottish tennis player. I can't think of any other sportsperson wo has their own word.

Good morning. 🌳☁️🌳

10 September 2023

My buddies woke me before 05:30 this morning ... again. I was going to stay up and came in here, to my office, and started to do things when suddenly I felt like closing my eyes, so I went to my recliner and kicked back until I woke again about seven with Charlie looking in my face and nudging me. We usually have a short battle, where I tell him to go away, which he does for a minute or so. He speaks to me, you know ... I just wish I knew what he's saying.

Did you see the US Open Womens final yesterday, it was a nail biter, but the player I was rooting for won, Coco Gauff. I guess they are all nail biters, if you have a favorite in the game.

"It is unclear whether all of the players have the same illness, or whether their cases are connected, but something has been going around the U.S. Open... with players no longer required to test for Covid-19, it is difficult to determine the cause of the illnesses among them." 🤔 🙄 #mystery #disease #outbreak #tennis (gift link) https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/01/sports/tennis/us-open-players-sick.html?unlocked_article_code=kN0v4qB9MSkhArNFFfqY2hpADTVuOTR4jHCQvHqAcEVHc3zENtOonAyl0aqcNhGepKP_utzfxFPCc4MuuvTcGitJuYgMy7keI0BirTC6pT4sBlZJGnXco7oYhF2bb8TJgupbgvyOMxJLbNQVGehL6VINrosMXO65LvyT1gjHM82S0XlPTNboiNGf09uDXHdnoJnN9lmCypieWQnBSAptMdEzORM29cKa2oUDhjWx3bu7x5RGrY1rcJo29q8j10LlnKvQrA5UxugamJN23A4rHvpf0dV4DRMlAMnj6nHA6lceD0HskLf5mDJW-ReSx3VAETzN4KciSeZfayOnBBHq-3EZzgo&smid=url-share

When I went to sleep last night, Madison Keys was ahead in the second set women's semifinal, after a 6-0 win over Sabalenka in the first set.

I expected Keys to win.

Sabalenka came back from 3-5 in the second set, forced a decider, and defeated Keys, 0-6, 7-6(1), 7-6(5).
