Congratulations to Sabalenka who won a hard fought victory over Gauff 63 76(3) to win her 3rd Madrid title and her 20th career title overall! and her 9th WTA1000 title!

BTW,
Sabalenka becomes the first woman to win both Miami and Madrid in the same season since 2013
The last player to do it.............Serena Williams!

I was just wondering who is TNT Sports going to ask to commentate for them. When they used to carry Wimbo years ago, they had Carillo and Martina.

Just read that Andre Aggasi will be give his thoughts as a studio commentator for TNT sports
John Mac will also be a commentator and Jim Courier
Sloane Stephens, Caroline Wozniacki, Chris Evert, Lindsay Davenport are also the female commentators that have been signed up to TNT sports this year

Iga Swiatek has come out in the press and said she isnt going to take a break after the clay season and will be playing Wimbledon, contrary to reports from a lot of media reports including one from Poland.
