Thank goodness for Ash Barty.
Who lets her tennis do all the talking but she certainly does walk the talk.
Barty seeded 1 for Wimbledon.

These tennis players that continually smash rackets need to be called out for environmental vandalism and privileged elitism. A lot of energy and toxic crap goes into making each racket. If they want to blame (and retire) the racket they should rather just pass them to fans in the crowd.
For a long time there has been a spoiled-brat culture among elite junior tennis players, which is carried into professional ranks by too many.

His backhand is a thing of beauty, a true work of art.
Sharma’s gone.
Popyrin won the first set of his first round match-up with Carreño Busta in a tiebreaker.
Hope he can continue! Looked so good in the Aus open.

Kyrgios not giving a ■■■■ in his match against Thompson
Ha and then breaks back with a disciplined game
Love watching nick
Kyrgios wins first set in tiebreaker.
Typical DGAF match that Krygios will decide who wins.
As long as people get used to taking it like it is.
Frustrating for Thompson is he’s just a side show.
It’s extraordinary viewing.
Stunned, amazed, frustrated.
He’s not boring
De Minaur up 2 sets to love.
Kyrgios decides who wins all of his matches.
Every one he plays against, even the big 3, are a side show

■■■■■■ oath. I really want him to get through to play Rafa, because you know he’ll lift for that. Then if he wins he’ll lose to some random dud
