Talk About Tennis 2.0

sad to see BHM ending her season.. she seems to have some illness - says she couldnt breathe and her hands were shaking on the changeover... she is the kind of player that is good for the game, would be sad if she stays out.

Svitolina is shutting down for the season, citing burnout and wanting to recharge for next year.

So, the sky didn't fall?

Seemed to be a bit of hyperbole in the media surrounding this injury.

Badosa is shutting it down for the season after her latest injury.

Kasatkina the next player to throw in the towel for the season, citing mental health reasons. While I'm in support of players valuing their mental health, and a fan of Kasatkina in general, her statement comes across as a little whingey. She could have said less.

His career is starting to unravel in the worst possible way. Not only he is not getting traction, now he is getting injured.
And he was needed. A third option to add to the J/C dictatorship. And I liked his style.
Hope I am completely wrong, and he will be able to come back and be a factor.
