I want to disagree but I can't.

Most likely never, as Elena continues to side with Stefano and she says it has never happened.

Yes she was. She made me pay more attention to their interactions.

Owen is right. The behavior of people like him escalates over time. Many of them know to hit where bruises won't show to the general public or family.

The Athletic is reporting that anonymous sources with knowledge of the case are saying it’s a one-year ban, and that Rybakina and Vukov are most likely romantically involved.

It’s NYT so might be behind a paywall

This is all alleged of course

I don't think Rafa would make a good coach and I say this as a long time Rafa fan.

I say this because the greats, like Jordan, like Federer, like Rafa can't put into words what they do. They literally "just do it".

Exactly. Probable bad coaches:
Pete, Borg, Laver, Roger, Steffi, Serena.
I say Martina can. She was such a student of technique that yes. Chrissie too.
