The jury of public opinion is out, and history is likely not to view this behaviour well. It will be perhaps more interesting to see how it impacts what has been a stumbling start to Zverev's 2022 campaign. The guys a myriad of stories from the week. Felix returns to the finals for a 2nd straight tourney. A new sexy Russian emerges in Saffiulin... and he's got some game too.

Aldwin has his own therapy session on Jelena Ostapenko.    Still time to get a discount off our merch at the Ready Play Shopify store!
