Which discord channel?



Rybakina has a new clothing Sponsor.

I feel like it‘s a downgrade from Adidas? But maybe she asked for more money and they refused, which is exactly why Halep switched to Nike.

Lchat discord channel. The way i was banned from it cause i called out the mods for not giving proper updates about when the forum will come back. But that thread wasn't very active back then. And some posters there double post in reddit discord thread cause it's more active.

Easy game for Ons!

Might be worthwhile keeping an eye on the 16 year old Mirra Andreeva who seems to be playing some great tennis!

I'm not getting drama from Azarenka vs Andreescu. I think I cursed their match.

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that enjoyed it!

I think tbh they would handle it just as well as the men. It would just take a little while for the players to get used to playing for that length of time, that’s all!

I also saw Monfils v Baez and really had fun watching it.I have pondered many times how different Grand Slam results would be if the women played best of 5 too.

I think tbh it’s only time until they make it the same. Either the men drop to 3 sets or they increase the women to 5.

I think the only reason they are keeping it the way they are is due to the number of professional males, well, imo tough shit. Limit the number of entries for the men and have 5 sets each for men and women.

Tbh, this is one of the main reasons why I was uncomfortable with the prize money becoming the same for the men and women when the women don’t play as many sets or for as long. If you want equal prizes then play equal times and games, but that’s entirely down to the tennis bodies.

Yeah,I agree. Women and men should play the same. Either both sexes play best of 3 or both sexes play best of 5.

I don't know the details of hr match today but Leylah sustained a stress fracture to her foot last year. She's still trying to come back from that injury. Must be frustrating. She has a lot of talent.

Glad to see more posts on this thread again.I loved it pre 2023. Anybody know of any tennis gossip/rumors? Which players ping to you? Lesser known players to look out for?

Also I was disappointed Garcia lost today. Well done to Blinkova though.Epic last game.

Fuck I hate when players do that, play while barely walking or injured and somehow managed to win but then they withdraw. The other player should've had a chance to play. I know I know, you will say why didn't they win against injured or tired player but whatever, I hate it ^o)

I just saw that, what a shame! I know he was suffering with a wrist injury, which he mentioned to the umpire during the match…

Anyway, I really wanted to watch the Andreeva match today, but have to go in to the office so I’m hoping Ons’ match will be delayed so I can at least watch that one.
