I haven't seen Blockx play much so I'm not really familiar with his style, but he seems to be going for his shots aggresively rather than staying in the rallies here.

stayed in the rally there.
I'm a bit confused of what's going on here. Glad to be just watching from the sidelines pretty much, very small green on Blockx tap. |

looks like Fran has some sort of mental blockx today.

Thanks for coming Naomi, nice dresses, see you next year.

I wonder how she plans these things. When she did her "SAY THEIR NAME" thing in 2020 she left the biggest name, George Floyd, for the final. Presumably she was confident that she would make it that far. Does she save her best dresses for the final and we never get to see them or will she just save that for the Aussie Open instead?

have no idea, but I don't know what it's all about, tells me she's more interested in being some kind of fashion icon than a serious tennis player, for someone so naturally introverted she likes to draw a lot of attention her way, or maybe it's just newfound confidence.

Sorry for the large post but my search assistant has told me when I was trying to find out what Naomi meant by "business at the front and party at the back"... it intrigued me somewhat
 Naomi Osaka's Fashion Philosophy Naomi Osaka has a distinctive approach to fashion, which she describes as "business at the front and party at the back." This phrase encapsulates her unique style that combines professionalism with playful and expressive elements. Key Aspects of Osaka's Style Professionalism: Her outfits often feature tailored elements that convey a sense of seriousness and respect for the sport. Playfulness: The "party at the back" aspect highlights her willingness to incorporate fun, bold designs and colors, making her stand out both on and off the court. i'm still not sure what she's on about.

I don't thing one detracts from the other. You can only work on your tennis so much, Sabalenka has her off courts interests too. I think with Naomi, her level has dropped/the opposition has stepped up since winning those Slams, and that's why she's now top 15 rather than top 1. As for being shy, it's perfectly normal to be an introvert but show your personality in other outlandish ways.

AI of no use as normal. Business at the front, party at the back is a description of a mullet. I think Naomi saying that is a play on that and saying you can be both serious and fun.

It was one of four phrases or slang terms that describe a mullet hairstyle apparently  |

Does caramba watch OC too i wonder
|

By:
I thought she was possibly alluding her s3xual proclivities
or have I been spending too much time on dubious websites ? |

GSM Blockx !!
 |
|
By:
and Fritz lost to that from two sets up. criminal
|
|
By:
Blockx cracker a poor joke about using the painkillers again next match and laughs looking at the crowd to realise no one else was laughing ! That was a hard watch !
|
|
By:
botic set to get knocked out of a winnable match. another player who fluctuates so much from match to match. capable of beating carlitos at the same time as being capable of losing to anyone

Real damp squib from Osaka.

I was wondering where Edy was as he usually posts on tennis quite a lot…… I did search and found that DixieDean60 thought he had to be banned…… Is this true ? ... it's a bit of a shame if he has been banned.... also I thought he was a guy called Wolf who used to phone into LBC from Germany quite often.

By:
is there a worse sulker when things dont go his way than botic. absolutely mugged this match away against a ll ffs.
|
|
By:
What are Botic's stats for coming back from 2 sets to 0 down ? 1.5x backers might want to know
|
|
By:
bagelled in a breaker. that takes some doing even against the very best which gea certainly is not
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
hes more likely to just give up and lose in three.
|
|
By:
Just when you think you've seen the craziest of markets, they lump hard Botic to win the match below SP when up mid 2nd set
|
|
By:
that was weird toad. no idea why he got so much love. probably to do with gea being practically useless and memories of botic routining carlitos here the other year
|
|
By:
Yeah
ATP streams now pretty close to Sky Sports, having been quite ahead earlier. Bizarre  |
|
By:
1.1x Darja Semenistaja backers even more barmy
|
|
By:
perhaps botic might attempt some sort of fight. holds serve saving bps. if he was going to bail that was the time
|
|
By:
Market is so pro Gea right now.
