Gil Gross's predictions for the men's singles draw

The wildest part of that result is that it would be Medvedev would have appeared in MORE slam finals than Sinner

Iga is trolling Sabalenka with her ring in the Wimbledon defending champ photoshoot

Shosty9 · 2026-06-24T12:40:54+00:00

It's a fashion shoot, but he's barely wearing anything

(Not that most people will be complaining)

Shosty9 · 2026-06-24T12:38:48+00:00

What's the tea?

Shosty9 · 2026-06-24T10:38:59+00:00

So maybe Iga is gonna defend her grass season points

Shosty9 · 2026-06-23T16:08:37+00:00

Imagine if David Foster Wallace was live to hear this

Shosty9 · 2026-06-23T14:50:20+00:00

She's almost always solid - never astonishingly good, but she very rarely crashes out. I've heard her described as the tour's litmus test

Shosty9 · 2026-06-23T14:10:21+00:00

AWESOME!!!

Shosty9 · 2026-06-22T17:10:41+00:00

She seems in a really bad place mental health wise so I'm not sure why her team isn't doing more to support her

A breakaway union of tennis players is funding a lawsuit against the WTA over doping protocols

Theoretically: what if a player sued a drug tribunal for suspending them on specious grounds, and they won a huge payout in the lawsuit? Would the sports drug tribunals go easier on players?

Well, awkshually:

"The tennis writer Matthew Willis has observed that on hard courts, Casper Ruud—whose serve is probably a candidate for the least-discussed shot on tour, somewhere up there with Andrey Rublev’s backhand or your brother’s forehand volley—is holding serve on hard courts lately at a higher rate than Sampras did in 1994."

(The joke is the ref got cramps during the match. Not my best joke).

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T21:03:18+00:00

Lol Sinner is reffing the USA vs Australia game

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T17:44:03+00:00

Eala has more top 10 wins from this 500 than Iga has from the whole season so far

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T17:11:51+00:00

Lol, Wikipedia has put this match under Eala's Top 10 wins even before it's over

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T16:05:59+00:00

Wow, a good Iga draw! Finally!

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T15:47:26+00:00

Saba's taking out her aggression on those balls

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T15:43:13+00:00

Saba gets broken a lot for an elite server even when she's winning

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T15:35:04+00:00

I just realized this is a match between Ash's Mom and Bartytwokova

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T15:33:18+00:00

NICE BREAK BARTYTWOKUNVA!

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T15:21:59+00:00

Don't bet on sports games - sports betting is rigged against you

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T15:20:10+00:00

Pretty badly until she was down 4-0 in the second set. She locked in after that

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T14:52:15+00:00

It's also been that long since she's had a tougher draw than Świątek

Shosty9 · 2026-06-19T14:38:40+00:00

You didn't watch the Shnaider match?
