Remember when we were talking about the RUSSIAN/BELARUSIAN ban, and how it would screw some people? Let's add:
Rijthoven, Goffin, Kubler (Q) and Tan, low ranked players that made the 4R, and will not see a single point added to their low ranking.
And how far would those players (and others - like Botic, etc.) have gotten if the Russian and Belarusian players were there to compete?
We'll never know, of course - but I'd say the absence of the Russians and Belarusians was likely a factor in the lower ranked players getting as far as they have.

I think Bouzkova's point was better than Norrie's...

Pat Cash, leaving us with plenty of doubt of how he really feels about Kirgios. Not.
“It was absolute mayhem,” Cash, the 1987 Wimbledon champ and fellow Aussie, told BBC radio. “He’s brought tennis to the lowest level I can see as far as gamesmanship, cheating, manipulation, abuse, aggressive behavior to umpires, to linesmen.

“He was lucky to even get through the first set, he should have been defaulted in the first set. Something’s got to be done about it, it’s just an absolute circus. Is it entertaining? Yeah, possibly. It’s gone to the absolute limit now.”

No. It has not gone to the limit. We have yet not seen the limit.

Pat Cash is 100% correct that Kyrgios turns tennis matches into a circus. To me though it is not entertaining at all.

You are correct Ponchi we have not seen it taken to the limit. Not even today with his "You're Done" scream to Brandon Nakashima in the 5th set when he was going up 5 -1. He definitely has more foolishness up his sleeve and unfortunately nothing is being done about it.
