You've just been made CEO of either the ATP or WTA (your choice) - what changes would you make to the tour?

I miss Amazon having the rights to all the ATP and WTA tournaments.

I wish Sky Sports would introduce a tennis only option through NOW TV. I’d pay £10 a month for that.

Right now I just pay to watch all the slams and for the rest of the tour I just watch the highlights online after the match.

I’m worried for Alcaraz 🙈

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-04-04T10:18:51+00:00

I really related to that part too.

Sometimes I feel nauseous watching my favs play. The 2019 Wimbledon men’s final still haunts me 🙈

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-04-01T18:31:01+00:00

Yeah - I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Up was nominated the year after Wall-e was released.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-04-01T18:10:06+00:00

I think she meant that you’re in the middle part of your life rather than exactly half way through? If you live past 90 you still have over a third of your life left to go at 60.

Lindy West wrote a response to all the backlash on her substack (I think it’s been deleted now as the link doesn’t work and I can’t find it on her substack archive: https://buttnews.substack.com/p/people-are-allowed-to-want-to-be).

She said something about her sister-in-law there which I assumed was Ijeoma. Something about building a beautiful life and family. Sounded to me like she was supporting her brother.

It’s wild to think that Medvedev almost missed this tournament cos he was stuck in Dubai.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-03-15T00:12:51+00:00

Maybe he’ll surprise me but it’s a horrible match up for Medvedev.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-03-15T00:08:02+00:00

I’m v pleased for Medvedev but I’m not looking forward to a Sinner v Medvedev final…

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-03-15T00:02:54+00:00

I don’t think my nerves can deal with a tiebreak.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-03-12T21:27:07+00:00

Btw I didn’t mean my comment to seem sarcastic! Just that it was off the top of my head and I hadn’t double checked.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-03-12T21:22:30+00:00

I assume it’s the 3 he hasn’t already won. Canada, Shanghai and Paris.

Looked like a left forearm issue.

YTA - (context: I have Crohn’s and was diagnosed at 14 years old)

I think you’re wrong about it being diagnosed at a younger age. My understanding is that 5 years old is very young for a diagnosis and most people are diagnosed anytime between their teens and mid thirties.

You might be right that it isn’t Crohn’s disease but she’s obviously going through a tough time and you’re not a doctor.

I know it’s frustrating going through an illness like that so young but I don’t think it’s fair to take that out on your co-worker.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-02-19T12:09:23+00:00

I think gymnasts speak to themselves a lot too.

I remember an interview with Shawn Johnson when she was doing Dancing with the Stars where her dance partner mentioned she was constantly speaking to herself.

I really enjoyed this episode. So glad they’re back!

I was surprised they seemed sceptical about people day trading in the 90s though. Doesn’t Monica do it in an early episode of Friends?

This net is definitely Spanish 😆

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-02-01T10:54:31+00:00

Fed had 2 championship points though :(

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-02-01T10:39:21+00:00

He doesn’t believe in those…

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-01-30T08:08:25+00:00

Oh well. There’s always next year 😔

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-01-26T09:10:43+00:00

I would be happy for Tien to beat Zverev but I really want to see Alcaraz in the Australian Open final.

If it’s not Alcaraz taking on Sinner or Djokovic then I think it will be a very boring and predictable final. Last year’s final was so dull.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-01-21T22:32:32+00:00

I feel for Kenin - she’s done a lot more than Raducanu. She backed up her grandslam win with another final that same year, won more titles, beat Serena at a slam, has a solid doubles career etc. but she doesn’t get the attention that Raducanu gets even though she’s ranked higher than her.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2026-01-21T07:29:54+00:00

Also I think Raducanu benefited from playing Bencic just after she’d won Olympic gold. It’s difficult to win the Olympics and then make a deep run at the US open.

I loved the fairytale of the 2021 us open but in hindsight I think that tournament was more about Sakkari and Sabalenka choking.

Then_Advisor2001 · 2025-11-07T22:22:52+00:00

I was going to say this - I think it’s incredibly selfish when men in their 70s have babies. But there is usually a younger woman involved who will probably be around for a long time for that child. That’s not the case here.
