Still so interesting having live sports on Netflix. Definitely still a growing platform for live sports and it’s interesting to see how they cover it. Will be fancinsting to watch if they step out of the exhibition space and try to cover in some way tennis tour events. 🎾

You know, didn’t think the silver would last this long on Carlos Alcaraz but it’s actually grown out pretty well.

It’s technically Felix Auger Aliassime season aka European indoor season and he is into his 4th consecutive quarterfinal but can we talk about Damir Dzumhur? Bosnian player who this year has caused some top players some issues. Hope he keeps this up. He is quite fun to watch. 🎾

One of our favourite matches from this year’s US Open was watching Tereza Valentova take out Bronzetti in 3 fun sets. Haven’t seen her on tour in a while so nice to see her back and winning. Absolute fire game.
#JapanOpen 🎾

Other events this week are the UTS in Hong Kong & Six Kings Slam in Saudi. Still learning about the system of UTS but interestingly if you are wondering why Djokovic & Alcaraz have byes in the 6KingSlam & not Sinner who won the event last year
It’s based on who has the most slams 🎾

Good Morning. New week in tennis. Things are wrapping up in Asia with the WTA but the ATP is starting the European indoor swing. Will keep up with Naomi & Hailey in Osaka but will mostly transition to the European tournaments in Stockholm & Brussels.
Love this court. 🎾

That was crazy! This story really has had EVERYTHING. For him to cramp right there at the end was too much.

Coco said she has to bring an extra suitcase home for all of the nice gifts she has received from Chinese fans. Asia seems like a nice post-USO therapy for her to relax and regroup away from the stressors of NYC. Loves the energy here.

Easy, Breezy.
Coco Gauff wins the #WuhanOpen & is now 9-0 at Hard Court finals. Tough to beat her once she gets there. Everything was working today serve, forehand but she still had the ability to use, what I think is her trademark, her ability to disrupt, defend, play & win ugly 🎾
