Given how much Medvedev hates clay all it will take is for him to go down a break to get frustrated.

That's why I picked Karatsev. I like Medvedev's game, but you can tell his head just isn't there for the clay.

Exactly, I like both too but he's pretty open about hating clay and it clearly affects his game. He's just waiting for that post match McDonalds.

Congratulations to Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos for their win in doubles. Still find it disconcerting to realize it's Feli Lopez behind the mask and in the suit handing out trophies.

Didn't like that his coach said he was lagging behind in terms of fitness. To be expected when he's played so little so maybe clay is actually good to get the heart racing. But maybe it's not cardio fitness but knee fitness. Time will tell.

I also read that regarding Roger and his fitness,he needs to get match fit for sure,first steps back on the clay.

I wish food meant more to me, or I would have loved hitting Lyon while in Europe back in '01! As a tennis player FOOD just was only used as sustenance and little else during tennis season! It wasn't unusual to start playing at 8 AM, barely taking on water until late afternoon! I skipped meals because I needed to get back on the courts! I was ahead of my time with intermittant fasting and had no idea! When I ate it was something simple and light with little variation to avoid food poisoning and upset stomach in general! I've never taken a Tum, Pepto, or Maalox tab in my life! I've never understood people knowing something could or will upset their stomachs, counting on medicine like Beano to get them thru! Strange; too strange! End RANT!

One word : Probiotics

Take before, during and after a trip, has always worked like a charm with me and traveling. Half the fun (well maybe 90%) is trying new foods and drinks.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well I was right Thiem has taken a WC into ATP250 in Lyon,also Corentin Moutet.
The draw ceremony will take place at 4pm Saturday.
Berrettini withdrew,meaning Moutet is in the main draw,freeing up a WC.

Grigor Dimitrov has received a WC into Geneva Open
Roger Federer has received both COVID-19 vaccination shots he said he did it out of concern for others.

Who the hell is Benjamin Bonzi ?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Who the hell is Benjamin Bonzi ?

You really need to research up and coming French player's
Bonzi is currently ranked 115 a career high by the way
Age 24 6ft 1in....has a nice well shaven beard not like that other player who will rename nameless for now

Andy Murray will not be playing Roland Garos.He was still feeling some discomfort after his matches in Rome so he has returned home to focus on the grass season.

Like he would do anything more than take up space in the draw! What an a-hole! "Just go away defensive retriever!"

See this is what I like to hear..all of us can speak about how we take care of our nutritional health of our bodies. That's why I despise Cali for always trying to be dismissive of everyones knowledge. I hope someone turned his dumbass in for the incident on January 6th.

I saddened to hear but it was expected.

I think he has done the right thing,better for him to return to grass,clay is too harsh on your body.
