Medvedev twice as likely as Djoko.? Sounds a bit high to me..Djokovic will still best most people over 5 sets.. and I do think the conditions at Rome made the court less slippery than RG will be..which helped Medvedev...though I admit I haven't actually been able to see a gull match ,,(no tennis. Channel here,,)

This time I believe Novak's injury is real, because he is not talking about it. He is not saying much, so it must be really bothering him.
Medvedev's progress on clay has been excellent. Against Stefanos, you felt that he was right there all the time and just waited to pounce late in the set. Against Holger, it was very much the same.
And remember. Novak lost to Holger, AFTER having a day's rest. So, in RG, with also having one day in between, we may be seeing the same.

I think remember something about Jones from Wimbledon a couple of years ago. She’s the player who was born with only 4 fingers on each hand, I think.

Sad to see a grand slam champion and former RU bring asked to qualify...

Kenin lost 3&3. If you lose that way in 1R of the qualies, were you really worth of a WC into the main draw?

she beat Sabalenka! and she is a grand slam champion.. how many of those are around?! WTA player of the year in 2020, not so very long ago. The USTA probably did not fight for her- they may regard her as a Russian- who knows?!

as Brad Gilbert once said (not sure about the numbers) - 10% of the time you will be playing so well nobody can beat you, 10% of the time you will play so badly anyone can beat you.. this must be one of those, for Kenin - anyone can lose in qualifying..

Someone on Youtube reminded of Sinner's slightly snarky comment in Miami - "Let's see how you do on clay". When will they learn that trash-talking DM backfires )) It's like with black Americans - they are allowed to call themselves n**s, but not anybody else. Medvedev himself is allowed to denigrate his clay prowess, but not anybody else.

It is never a good idea to be snarky with your peers..

Blast from the past: Sesil KARATANTCHEVA is not only playing but has actually won her first round match! It seems like ages when she made the quarterfinals (and all that drama that followed).

There seem to many more player names than usual that I don't recognise or seem to have never heard of before... Is that just me or are there really more unheralded players in qualifying this year?

Was is that snarky? I think Sinner and Madvedev are in good terms. I took it as a bit of a joke, and Medvedev seems to not have been bothered by it.
