There was that infamous picture of Murray from a few years ago that would answer this question...

Please bring back Jim Courier for these on-court interviews. Or the former female players that have done a nice job with them in the past, though I haven't gotten the feeling AO officials are all that open to that idea, always seems like it's a guy after the men's matches.

Those of us that already picked Krejcikova in the SP, may have done way too early. She played a gorgeoeus match, and is hitting a solid ball.
May be the OTHER this year.

They should have dispensed with the on court interview given the time the match finished. All I could think of was when they brought chairs out for Nadal and Djokovic after their marathon final. It was obvious Andy just wanted to get off the court and they kept asking him these long drawn out questions.

Roland Garros did what?

No, the other slams cover each other. US Open being by far the best follow of the bunch year-round. Wimbledon posts the least, mostly about British players, I'm sure their account is currently an Andy tribute page.

I meant about posting about the signed photographs. These are much better, but...
Ok, I will take your point. Nothing to see here.

I don't think this was even posted.
Yesterday, in the Khachanov/Kubler match, there was a 70 strokes point. But, it was not spectacular. Neither one could hit pass the other.

Next great match will be Rybakina versus Swiatek.. Rybakina is one of the few players (with Saba) capable of beating Iga - has enough pace and depth to make her go on the back foot. Rybakine has a 40% chance, I would say... hope she does it!

I need someone to dump Djokovic out the tournament. Aside from my general distaste of him, I'd like to see someone win their first slam. I love players first slam reactions when won.
