At this point I'm assuming the only solution is to ignore men's tennis until like 2028.

It's been a really good tournament so far. Swiatek/Kenin, Kokkinakis/Ofner, Garcia/Osaka all really entertaining.

The 16 year old who demolished Ons Jabeur is on to the 4th round now. It has to be super demoralizing to lose to a teen like that.

yeah andreeva was down 5-1 in the 3rd and came back to win the tiebreak it was wild

Yes, I am very cereal.
The Andreeva sisters have been hyped among tennis hardcores for the last year or so, the Ons win may be looked at as an unsurprising one in 1-2 years time. The Fruhvirtova sisters are in a similar position in terms of groundswell hype, but don't seem to have the same level of results just yet.

I’d like to hire a cute grandmother to sit courtside and tell djokovic how good of a job he’s doing and how nice his tennis is. Hit him with that reverse psychology

Sinner 2-1 in sets up against Djokovic, although it must be noted that the latter won the last set, so the comeback might be on. I've tuned in in the hopes that Sinner can get it over the line though.

e: Djokovic just shipped 5 points in a row to hand Sinner a break up in the 4th set.... Fingers crossed.
