Brazilian press quoted some social media to say that Janowicz will return still in 2019. Cited a knee and two eye surgeries

Photoshop doesn't have any mercy. Though I thought Djokovic got off rather easy. :)

Zverev doesn't look happy with Lendl. He says they sometimes train for 2 hours and Lendl talks 30 mins about his Golf he played the day before.

Is Zverev also going to court with his ex manager? Tough season for him, too many problems and those 2nd serve double faults won't get fixed by itself. He needs a fresh start and new coach.

agree with you, Ivan's not the right coach for Sasha, it worked with Sir Andy but not for him

As Becker also said player needs to allow coach to teach and they have to be open both ways. They need to have a good relation and some chemistry. Many times great coaches are people who never played top tennis, just some guys who struggled and realised they are better as coaches than players. It's an amazing achievement too, to be a great coach like Vajda for example. Hats off to all those people. I think they don't get enough credit in individual sport. Maybe more in Soccer and Basketball. Don't know, just my impression, I might be wrong about it.

Wimbledon officials pretty much gave Tonic the "finger" with his appeal denied.
