What are people's thoughts on the Russian/Belarus players being banned from competing in Wimbledon?
“It is a significant rebuke of the sport’s oldest Grand Slam tournament and, in a technical sense, renders the event an exhibition without any ranking points at stake.”

Good. Proper decision.

Norrie was a young pro flying the Kiwi flag and asked NZT for some funding to help him. In their wisdom they said no. And that's how we let a guy who would have been the highest ranked NZ tennis player maybe since Anthony Wilding (?) slip through our fingers

that sounds painful and dangerous.
Edit and from what I read he was born in South Africa and his father was born in Glasgow (outer Wales?) and both parents still live in NZ (great taste).

Obviously not at a Kyrgios match, she would have been ejected

Great bloke on the court, just as great off the court. Never anything but classy - the Ritchie McCaw of Tennis

Probably should have his own thread. Such a beautiful player to watch in his prime, and part of the most dominant triumvirate the sport has ever seen

Best player of all-time at his prime. Feel fortunate to have been able to follow his whole career. Great bloke and a wonderful ambassador for his sport too.

Strayan Open time.
Can someone tell me how Andy Murray beating some random Italian I've never heard of is a "major upset"?

Where have you been? Berretini is #13 in the world and is a GS finalist IIRC. Having said that, Murray is a nightmare draw for a seeded player. Far better than his ranking

Gauff-Raducanu was a good match to watch. They should have a good rivalry in the coming years.
An enjoyable match. Raducanu had chances to force a third set but made some poor shot choices, especially when Gauff slowed the rallies down. Played well but there are learnings there
