The Official Tennis Thread (Vol. 2024 US Open)

^ Actually, that Nike ad came out 5-6 years ago, or something like that.  It was for their US Open campaign.  I don't expect to see one for Genie just yet.  Nike need to be careful not to over-market her as she hasn't won any huge tournaments yet.  Need more consistency. 

 

[Sinner]

LOL, Genie.

The stunningly gorgeous Maria...

And Ana, of course, who's also not too shabby.

Maria's V9's.

RIP Bally. She was only 30

And was just diagnosed!

RIP Bally.

Very sad news

A memorial for Bally at Madrid...

@geniebouchard
The awkward moment when you have to unbutton your shorts halfway through lunch.

She should take her top off too if she's planning on finishing that.

 

[Sinner]

Down, boy.

Anywho...

 

[Sinner]

Rafa back to his CB4.3's!

 

[The_Isomotion31]

I like that colorway of the CB 4.3s

 

[The_Isomotion31]

John Isner should never play on clay. He looks like a new born deer out there.

Looking like it's gonna be another Serena vs Sharapova beat down in Madrid this year.

 

[thadangerousmind]

Well so much for that. She just pulled out of Madrid and Rome and it looks like Li Na is gonna send Sharapova packing this morning.

 

[firepower]

Yeah not a Serena fan, but I hope it's not too serious ...I'd imagine it's more precautionary than anything to make sure she's okay for the French.

Edit: She reckons she'll be good for Rome.

And Masha ain't going nowhere just yet, great comeback 

 

 

[Sinner]

Li Na kicked her own ace, while Ana is getting her ace kicked.  Both played like %&*$.  

Welp.

 

[thadangerousmind]

Li Na really stunk the joint up. I don't care if Sharapova wins anything ever so hopefully Kvitova slays her.

 

[firepower]

Vamos Maria!

 

[thadangerousmind]

Halep choked in the worst way. I hope Nishikori doesn't do the same as he is handling Nadal very well right now.

Kei up a set and break against Rafa... on clay... in Spain...

Playing some unreal tennis.  Incredible.

Rafa playing with 0 confidence... Kei brimming full of confidence... hence the scoreline.
