close your eyes my Son

|
By:
what's he texting?
|
|
By:
I'm not your son, edy.
|
|
By:
he wrote about Pliskova playing catastrophic
|
|
By:
but how evil of the cameraman to tape secret conversations
|
|
By:
yeah, would never have happened in Tokyo as that cameraman would have been busy zooming on on KaPlis during the MTO.
|
|
By:
I wouldn't want that when I'm texting about Angelika's matches
|
|
By:
I must take a screenshot of this from youtabe later and ask Mouse trap what he wrote.

Tarpischev: if Kremlin Cup doesn't find sponsors it may be moved to another country. So far no contracts for 2015 http://itar-tass.com/sport/1502295 |

Hope they move it to Asia
|
|
By:
move it to Warsaw
|
|
By:
Will be difficult to move to Asia. Because I assume he means the combined event. Will ATP want an event in Asia in their European indoor swing?
|
|
By:
Russia is basically Asia
|
|
By:
What is Pliskova saying btw? Is it come on, or a really long pojd?
|
|
By:
guessing it's a pojd
|
|
By:
pome

By:
Moscow isn't
ATP players are already in Shanghai. Might as well give some of them the choice to stay there for another week instead of having to travel back to Europe. Don't see much of a problem there. |
|
By:
Also, the licences could simply be sold separately, i.e WTA goes to Asia, ATP finds another place in Europe.
|
|
By:
ATP tend to be one of upholding traditions though. It's clear they view the last 3 weeks as in the indoor European swing.
|
|
By:
That could happen Edy, but if the owner just decides to move it to another country, not sure what happens.
|
|
By:
From a logical point of view it is logical to go to Asia for WTA, but it will be another nail in the coffin for European indoor events.

|
By:
You would have an event in Asia then for players to play the week before YEC (certainly more logical than Moscow). And before the Elite Trophy in Zhuhai.
Of course it could become madness again depending on where the YEC moves to in 5 years time. |
|
By:
season would still be long enough to have a European and Asian swing if people like Azarenka hadn't lobbied so hard for shorter seasons
|
|
By:
the Elite Trophy in Zhuhai sounds rad
|
|
By:
Was Azarenka actually one of those?
I always read this, but who was actually lobbying for a shorter season in WTA? Was it anyone actually playing now? |
|
By:
Azarenka was one of the frontrunners
|
|
By:
edy just being a hater
|
|
By:
You may have read my posts on TF Edy, but what WTA have actually done is illogical to stopping burn out.
Effectively WTA are trying to force the same number of events on the top players in a shorter space of time, that makes burn out more likely not less imo. |
|
By:
Of course. The good thing for everyone would be a year long season with periods that contain decent enough breaks of non-mandatories for players that usually go deep
|
|
By:
The results are we always get crap tennis at the end of the season now. It's just top players falling apart.
