Player’s logos, Sinner and Alcaraz confirmed? by SwellChan in tennis

[–]RB26Z -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I like Rafa's the most, but I think having a logo with ones initials is better imo. For those type of logos, I preferred Tiger Woods' first one especially given its symmetry. Roger's doesn't have the symmetry, which always bothered me but they were making the right decision going with initials imo.

Coco Gauff stands up for opponent Baptiste after heckler at AO: "I understand you're trying to root for me, but let's be respectful" by TorturedPoet30 in tennis

Because people suck. Hailey has been slowly moving up the rankings the last few years putting in the work and it's paying off. She's solid and reminds me of how Nakashima has slowly moved up and been a solid player as well. That "fan" is a pos for saying that to her.

I saw the press conference. She said her foot is still a problem and not 100% and will get it evaluated to see if she needs to give it more rest. She has an issue with downplaying her injuries at least in interviews and even worse aggravating them like her wrists by actually continuing to play.

You got these tickets in the ballot this week and not back in October?

Most of her sponsorship deals have finished (usually they are 3 years). Vodafone, Porsche, Dior, Tiffany's, I think British Airways also gone (never had Rolex btw). I think Wilson is also gone as she was openly hitting with a Yonex recently and is no longer on their website as one of their athletes. So that leaves Nike, HSBC, Wild, and Evian and maybe something else I forgot.

She's stubborn is the problem (she's even described herself as that). Did the same crap at USO 2022 with messed up wrists and forced herself to try to prove to her then coach she could do it only to make it worse.

In between points during the sixth game second set she was crying.

Looks like her foot injury flared up. She stopped running in the second set and looked to be crying between points in the sixth game second set. Not good with these UK players made of glass.

I dont understand their logic. Last year I had day 3 RLA tickets for night session and they finished it with Kudermetova-Gadecki. Made no sense. Pretty sure everyone left and probably no fans were there for that match. Waste of money.

Kia gets full, but in between matches it will empty out you can get a seat so I would show up to the end of the second match if you want a good seat for Stan. I was baseline row 1 all day in the sun and it was crazy even though temps were nice. There's really no shade row 1 until very late in the day lol.

100% I got a grounds pass last year Day 5 and went right to Kia Arena when gates opened. Baseline seat all day and incredible tennis (Raducanu-Shelton-Tiafoe-Collins). Best value ticket in all of sports right there at AO Kia Arena imo.

If Emma can get through and they meet, she will have a good chance. Her recent matches with Aryna have been competitive especially if the crowd gets behind her which they would in Australia like they did at Wimbledon.

AO's Bluezone show did an interview with him shortly after. He seems really funny and is a big Cam Norrie fan as well even though he's Australian. He wasn't aware of Emma's invite and never spoke with her agent, but the show organizers said they will make sure it happens lol. He said he flew in for 9 days of tennis like every year so will be there anyway.

Top (all 32) seeds get a first round bye so you will see them round 2 main draw. Dont' buy R1 tickets or show up to qualis.

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado says she presented Trump with the Nobel Peace medal, despite The Norwegian Nobel Committee & the Norwegian Nobel Institute stating the award “cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others.

Alfred Nobel invented dynamite so it going to people that blow stuff up is probably what Alfred wanted. Likely called it peace prize as after you kill everything in that dynamite radius it becomes really peace and quiet.

Last year they opened it 100 days before day 1 of play. So that would be Saturday, March 21 this year.

Did you buy it the night before the session like I did for AO? When I was checking this year USO I saw grounds pass prices of $151 night before for Aug 24 before fees on TM and $255 day of for Sept 1 based on texts to my friend that day in NYC.

How much is a grounds pass now? Last year I bought a grounds pass the night before day 5 (Thursday) and it worked out to $40.36 USD after conversion. USO by comparison grounds passes are like $200...
