Spain women's race apologizes for food processor, nonfat gifts.
With Roland Garros just around the corner, get ready for our Survivors' Pool, You Can't Win Jack and Predictions contests.
For our SP players, remember: just the LAST NAME of the player, unless two players with the same last name play on the same day.

The tournament has apologized for not letting the players in the women's doubles talk to the crowd after the final.

Too little to late or better late than never depending on the view.
However, Lopez knows the culture better than anyone in management in my opinion

For what it's worth, the apology came from the tournament CEO.

He may be gone. There is an investigation pending and if it comes out that somebody gave the instruction, somebody's head will roll. And it will certainly not be any of the top honchos.

Yes, but why would anyone post that the person who had won the first slam was the only one who could win the slam that year when by definition that's the case? It's pretty clear I was referring to winning a slam in general, but common sense gets checked out the door too often when others are responding to posts.mick1303 wrote: ↑Sat May 06, 2023 9:22 pmThis is what you wanted to say maybe.

I'm saying Sabalenka is the only player with a chance to win the Grand Slam in any year since Serena came close and has the goods to do it. That's been the case for what, five players in my lifetime--Navratilova, Graf, Hingis (because of the lack of competition when she hit the top), Serena and now Sabalenka in my estimation. Graf succeeded. The others won three of the four. I think Sabalenka's game is on their level. We will find out if she can stay in the same good headspace she is in right now.
In all seriousness - I don't feel that Sabalenka is at this level of domination. She is good, but not THAT good. On a given day she is vulnerable to more than one player: Swiatek, Rybakina, Kreichikova. If she wins one more slam this year - it will be a great year for her.

You'd be surprised how often people write incoherent things that are wrong "by definition".
It's good that we finally realized what you MEANT to say.
