For Alexander it probably doesn’t matter much practically since his ankle is stuffed. He cant play for a long time anyway, might as well to use the time to sort out those things….maybe pay his way out of trouble.

He will play USO I think.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I dont know if Sasha will play the USO, going in without match play, my thinking if he was to play he could take a WC into Winston Salem tournament.

Alexander Zverev is on the US Open media day schedule for Friday ( I have no idea what that means, if anything, could be announcing he will or wont play)....the main draw for singles both for Men and Women will be made on Thursday August 26th.,still now word as yet, if Zverev will play the USO, though the media probably has allocated in advance media days for the players.
I know he has confirmed to play at the Tokyo Open which is after the US Open.Confirmed he will play for Germany in DC in September.
Just read from a German tennis website and journalist, reports that Zverev will miss the USO, as expected, I will update and confirm when I receive official confirmation.

Kyrgios is being taken to court by the fan he asked to be removed from Wimbledon during the final. She is suing for defamation of character. He asserted that she was drunk essentially. He keeps adding court cases.

I just read that new one, she was drunk to start with, quite frankly I dont think she has a case.

Dimi vs. Domi in R2 of a 250. Brutal draw. Just starting on TTC.

Dom was lucky to win yesterday against JJ Wolf WC, in a 3 set battle,also rain delayed

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

A bagel for Dominic, he did play late yesterday because of the rain delay, still he needs to play a lot more tournaments to get to a playing level

 

[kskate2]

Dang what had happened? I just went to post on the other thread for 5 min and Domi fed a bakery product. Apparently he needs some carbs & sugar, he is getting wiped off the court

I think Dominic needed to eat those carbs, though he seems to be doing better early in the 2nd set , on serve so far

Grigor retired 2-4 Trainer came out and a doctor, looks like it could be 'heat related'. Grigor felt dizzy and having problems breathing.

Dominic wins by retirement 06 4-2

Dominic will play Jack Draper tomorrow, Jack defeated Fognini in 3 sets today).
