Talk About Tennis 2.0

You did. We all talked about it, and we changed it. He made the comment after we had moved to Survivors' pool.
As I said, worry not. It's in the past.

If she is, I don’t think Stefanie is the mother

This entire thread could be Times of India.

MFG!

I found this photo in this article:
"It has to change," Auger-Aliassime complains about the balls used at the Paris tournament
The photo shop is pretty good; but, how did Felix hit that shot? Are we expected to believe that he ripped his strings through the ball?

Agree

Who has ever said the perfect picture does not exist?
And, sorry. That pales in comparison to the Paolini shot (the one with the Yonex logo aligned on her face).
But it is a great shot.

It's just something you have to say on social media. Like "If only there was a site dedicated to well timed pictures of tennis players."

Or some of these tennis accounts with the constant "The moment when!" ... and then its someone winning a round one match or something similar silly.

I have codified the first law of photography: just after you have taken a picture, just around the corner, there is a better shot waiting. It is an iron law, never fails.

Funny enough I just opened discord and first thing I see is "People say the perfect Halloween decoration don't Exi-"

It's basically a crutch people are using in social media because it make them feel like it makes their content "the best."

For the record it was the Monty Python Black Knight with arms and legs around him. I laughed but not sure a perfect decoration would be from a now 50 year old movie

Sam Querrey keeps mispronouncing Anisimova's last name. Very disrespectful.

what is 'named' about it? is it an award of some kind? No, it is just a fact - either true or not. I wish journalists and editors would listen to themselves before they publish

Named as in Forbes published a list of the highest paid athletes, and Gauff was named in the piece as the highest paid female athlete. It's using the 'mention or cite by name' definition of the word named. That being said, Sports Illustrated isn't really worth the time since it was gutted, and most of the articles are just filling space.
