Thomas (looking great btw) was one of the coaches of Team Europe at the Laver Cup.

If this is a new *coach* I'm thinking this is a replacement for Patrick and whoever his main coach is from the academy, not his father. But we'll see. I'll be shocked if his dad is MIA at future events.

There is no way daddy is gone. This is just somebody that can hit with him.

Wonder who can help him take that next step.
What is missing from his game? I say variety; he hits every shot the same way, very much like Delpo, Cilic and Berdych. And that is very hard to teach.

Stunning news. Hard to imagine Piatti saw this coming even a month ago, especially if you've heard McEnroe talk about how much Piatti has spoken about Sinner's future.

There's some speculation about Magnus Norman as his next coach. Not sure where people are getting that though, since he just finished talking about Stan's return.

The Simona and Darren of the ATP. How many times has this happened?

Sloane is back with Kamau Murray as well if you didn't see last week. Their splits have always been worded differently, but they are up there in the together/split/back together again category as well.

Thanks. I did forget them but I think it's because I missed the second split.

Because who is going to teach Novax anything new?
I believe that is not smart. Marian has never minded bringing new people to the team, for specific skills. So why split?

Is it possible that Vadja doesn't want to travel that much anymore?

Or maybe Vadja is vaccinated so Nole fired him on principle.

There are some who believe that the vaccine is contagious, and that those who are vaccinated are shedding the viral protein. :freaking:

The last time Vadja was fired it was because he didn't want to travel so much. A few months later there he was. I did wonder if it had to do with the Novax situation.
