Description
From asking Gerry to default him to now winning the whole thing, Daniil Medvedev is really the main character. Despite all the rain, this tournament wasn’t gloomy for us. After months without a Stefaniil match, we finally got our favorite matchup. Unfortunately, all the drama is more familial, but there is nothing we love discussing more than the mental and emotional side of tennis. Which means we do break out the star charts. As this is the final Masters on clay for this year, we look forward to Roland Garros and the notable people missing from the draw. Clay season is in it’s third act, so let’s hope for a high tower surprise.  New to tennis or trying to get a friend into the sport?
