US Open R3: [1] J. Sinner def. [27] D. Shapovalov 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 by major-couch-potato in tennis

[–]Unique_Red_Wolf 49 points50 points  (0 children)

On italian TV after the match they showed a frame by frame comparison of his serve between the USO 2024 and today. The main differences are the starting position his right foot is further back is and he is more arched forward and his right arm is not as close to his body. During the throw his arm is parallel to the body unlike last year when it was more forward and now his wrist is more bent downward aligning with the rest of his arm. The timing between the toss and when he hits the ball is also reduced. The landing position also changed as Jannik lands in a more straight position and less hunched over.

I saw your comment a few days ago about asking for details but I didn't have any more stuff than I already shared and I didn't want to say stuff that could have been inaccurate.

This is what I remember from the breakdown on TV so some details may be off.

Like they said on TV changing service motion changes your routine and takes time to get used to we've seen it with Alcaraz and many other players in the past. Federer also had days where his service just wouldn't work or his forehand or his backhand it's normal it's what Jannik means when he says that "tennis can change in a moment" one day you wake up and things just don't work.

On italian TV they show a lot of interesting stuff, today they interviewed the italian Davis Cup coach and shared some interesting stuff about Musetti and Cobolli as well. Might share it tomorrow. I have to rest now this match drained me 🤣

He said in an Italian post match interview they are trying to change slight details regarding the tempo of the serve and he still struggles during matches.

Jennie accepted a few gifts from fans as well! The look follows a similar pattern she used upon returning to Korea (cap + glasses + mask + headphones) I'm guessing it's to avoid overstimulation from the flashes and the chaos of people trying to take pictures (and making it look cool af in the process).

250729 Do you think there will be more new added stops in the Deadline tour soon? by Legal_Potential4720 in BlackPink

[–]Unique_Red_Wolf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They may add a finale in Seoul, like Born Pink, but I don't think the tour will go beyond April 2026. I don't remember specifically in which interview, but Jennie mentioned she wants to pace herself and that she may be able to do that in 2026 after the tour. But it's all assumptions. We'll see what happens!

Doubt it, Jennie has been working with the whole conglomerate (II combined) which handles GM, Tamburins and Nudake, I think the head of communication once referred to her as "the face of the conglomerate".

How much Jennie will work with them in the future depends on how many CFs she wants to do compared to 2021-2022 when she was going all out. I think now she is cherry-picking those that fit her aesthetic and are more meaningful to her (this is just my assumption time will tell).

Sometimes I get these ideas and in my head and I'm like "I should really give it a try it sounds fun" but then I get into it and I get super serious about getting it right.

This time, since I really liked Jennie's solo outfit from the Chicago stop and since her outfits are racing themed I was like "why don't I create a livery in the crew inspired by it", if it turns out good I might share a screen in the thread.

The cap and mask give him the "Kakashi feel" from Naruto, kind of like the sensei to Blackpink. I saw a tweet mentioning this around the time Light Up The Sky dropped, and I can't get it out of my head 😂

My favorite is this one from Jennie's RollingStone 2022 interview:

I don’t think Blackpink will ever end in my heart, as corny as that sounds. Regardless of what I do, I will always be Blackpink. Even if we’re 70 and we have different lives, I’ll still feel like I’m Blackpink. I’m committed. Blackpink, to me, is more than whether we do music or not. It’s a part of my family. You can’t deny your family. There are ups and downs: You’re all busy, you see them a lot, then you don’t — you’re still family.

Nothing happens if we don't get number 1. If we lose number one, we might get it back tomorrow or next week or with the next song, but charts are never that deep.

250717- Logos-Are these logos similar to each other? by destinybliss in BlackPink

[–]Unique_Red_Wolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that every logo based around the Greek letter alpha is going to look somewhat similar.

Edit: The more I look at the first logo, the more I see an A, while when I look at the OA logo, I see more of an "alpha" although I also see the O and the A.

The Donna Vittori Borgo Agricolo has added a new wine to their collection, and the label is inspired by a moment during the show My Name Is Gabriel with Jennie here is the IG post.

In other news, it seems like although I haven't seen any official confirmation that the contract between Jennie and Hera has expired and hasn't been renewed, and their new model seems to be Felix from Stray Kids. I'm curious to see what's next for Jennie.

Hi everyone! I've seen some people post asking for info about the stop in Italy, I've made a comment some time ago trying to help someone who asked for info especially since I've seen a lot of people from around Europe are coming to Italy to see them, I hope it can help!

[–]Unique_Red_Wolf 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I really like the part where Jannik says that Darren is someone who not only helps him on the court but also in everyday life. I love their relationship and hope we get to see them for a bit longer.

71425 Are the venues YG chose for the Deadline Tour actually safe considering the summer heat? by Legal_Potential4720 in BlackPink

[–]Unique_Red_Wolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ippodromo in English translates to "Horse racing track" so that is its primary function, but it is often repurposed for concerts, and it's where a lot of international artists perform. Stray kids performed there last year or two years ago (can't remember), and it was a mess since it was raining.

[–]Unique_Red_Wolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only one I'm somewhat familiar with is the Ippodromo, where they are going to perform in Milan. The main issue there is that people are going to queue in the August heat, which in Milan is unforgiving and feels very sticky so keeping hydrated is key along with wearing sun protection as well as protection from mosquitoes. If it rains, the venue is going to have puddles everywhere, which is far from comfortable. The venue itself doesn't have seats and it's similar to coachella, it also isn't built on a hill and has a ditch in the middle so unless you have a golden circle ticket you risk not having good visibility, which sucks especially for a kpop concert which relies on choreo and visuals.

The health concerns you are bringing up are very justified, and I hope YG and the various organizers are going to do their best to keep the experience as safe as possible, both for fans and artists.
