Tennis Random, Random (On Court)

Nor should they--at least most of them. Neither Sinner nor Alcaraz need another $1 million. They wouldn't even notice it. But for a guy like Jordan Smith, it's life-changing. (At least until we find out his family owns half of NSW or something.)

The pros weren't "eligble" to win a million were they?

Sinner double faulted.

He said he might double fault and then double-faulted... maybe on purpose?

An amateur qualifier won the 1 Point Slam, including a third round win over Jannik Sinner. He is now a millionaire.

Guy actually has an ATP ranking (but last updated in 2023 and 1000+) and is a regional champion. Obviously, this is an exo, but I'm questioning the "amateur"!

He's closer to Zverev in the rankings than Zverev is to Sinner!

Amazing shot.
The photo is not bad, either.

Wow, spitting images of their parents.

Wow, spitting images of their parents.

Beat me to it. Can't deny either one of them.

Incredible. But, how do you call the lines?

Alcaraz, Musetti and Bublik improved on their "worst best result" in slams.
Bublik reached R16, his previous best at AO was R64 - it was his weakest slam. Now he reached at least R16 in all slams.
Musetti reached QF, his previous best at AO was R32 - now he reached at least QF in all slams.
Alcaraz now reached semis which is his weakest slam, but still has chances to improve on that - this one was widely publicized.

On WTA side:
Ashlyn Krueger reached R64 here - previously the best at AO for her was R128. Now she reached 2nd round in all slams.
Xinyu Wang reached R16, previously AO was her worst slam with only R64. Now she upgraded to R32 class, needs to do better at RG.
Putintseva reached R16, now she was in the 4th round of all slams. Her previous best at AO was R32.
Anisimova reached QF - AO is still her worst slam, but previous best here for her was R16.
