Let's see if he plays

@@tennisweeklypodcast well he is already confirmed to play . you guys need to do your research

No shame here asking questions.

True. As long as you win the point before you can do anything it would seem 😂

For sure.

Garin played the victim. I think he didn't have the guts to keep on playing. He got an excuse to lose.

He run was something else

Interesante lo que mencionas. Aun así la interpretación del concepto de enojo podría caer en un plano más subjetivo. También se interpretó que el jugador belga lo único que no esquivó fue al jugador chileno, por lo que podría interpretarse como algo semejante. Que piensas al respecto? La interpretación está influenciada porque el belga estaba con mayores posibilidades de ganar el partido. Pero si el jugador chileno tenía el ojo lesionado, Que opciones ves frente al jugador belga que para ganar le faltaba 1 punto y además tenía el servicio a su favor? El único responsable de esa situación fue el jugador Belga.no sé si el chileno tuvo la intención de sacar provecho, pero el médico lo reviso según lo declarado 10 segundos.

it's going to be a big year for him and the quest for #25

Please dont play the racist card.

@ I know how it sounds. But there are other youtubers saying that Garin is South American and that he must have been exaggerating because south american soccer/football players are known to exaggerate. I’m not talking about race, I’m talking about how our latin culture is perceived. And it’s hard for me to believe that this would still have happened if we had a more powerful federation behind us such as the europeans or americans.

@@catalinapaz1993 Per ITF rules, the cases of Novak, Nalbandian, and Shapovalov were all unintentional but resulted from anger after losing a point, leading to their disqualification. Nalbandian kicked the referee’s knee out of anger after losing the point. Shapovalov threw the ball at the referee out of anger after losing the point. Djokovic hit the referee with the ball out of anger after losing the point. In all three cases, even if unintentional, the actions were driven by anger. In Zizou's case, it was ruled as unintentional, reckless, grotesque, and completely silly, I agree-but still unintentional and not out of anger. Thus, that’s what Carlos Ramos based his decision on and gave a warning. These ITF rules underscore that while unintentional actions may result in minimal penalties or warnings, deliberate actions, especially those stemming from anger or frustration, are treated more severely, often leading to point penalties or disqualification. After the doctor examined Cristian and informed the umpire that he was fit to continue playing, Cristian still refused to play, insisting that Zizou should be disqualified-though it was less about his fitness to continue and more about seeking a DQ. As a result, Cristian was disqualified for refusing to play. You find it unfair, I agree with you since Garin got bumped it. But the ones to complain are ITF rules. Not because South American are treated differently.

How about unfortunate accident followed by correct application of the rules?

We are starting to think it's heading that way!

It's a strange situation

There is a case for this. It certainly hasn't been a priority for a lot of countries.

@tennisweeklypodcast Now that we're in the multipolar world, hard to make a case for national pride.

Thanks Steve 🙏🏼

Really not nice for Cristian

It was not good...

Not tennis that's for sure. Good thing that nothing of the sort happened here then, don't you think?

Lines are separate but queue cards won't be handed out until much later in the day. Sometimes queue cards aren't handed out until around 3pm for the following day! You have to make sure you stay in the queue or make queue friends who can contact you if you pop out for a quick walk or rest break.

@ good to know! Thank you!

It's not if but when!

*after the racket smash 😅

@tennisweeklypodcast and after or before she pretended to urinate on her trophy?

It's all madness. Nobody involved can be trusted except the two positive tests.

Please, stop with this nonsensical victimhood. It's like a broken record since August.

I think it's time you know who your mother is

🫣

It's between those two for sure

And CAS

This was recorded a long time ago! We aren't for Wimbledon dress code rule breaks but would love to see him head to toe Gucci on the court!

You may be right

The person shouting didn't shout about Sinners positive test results they shouted the names of Zverev's alleged victims.

@@tennisweeklypodcast I meant not specifically you here, sorry. Just in general when you said that there will always be a shadow...this should go for everything Sinner does now too then, even moreso because it is sports related. Should be even get banned, his performances in 2024 until then will definitely have that asterisk.

​@@EllisHyndeno need to apologise! There will always be a question mark around Sinner. The only fact in the matter that we can be sure of is that he failed two drugs tests.

@@tennisweeklypodcast Agree. And no one will ever know what really happened, but i was surprised at the lack of scepticism from most tennis media/experts. The explanation as well as the priority handling of this case is pretty suspect. And it is naive to say "he is a humble guy, he cannot be doping", or "the amount was too small", when we know there is microdosing, masking agents etc. and we know that in every sport, top athletes will and have used doping. Not saying he did, but how weird do these explanations for "contamination" even get...

Yes. Our view is that it is ridiculous to find him at 'no fault'. At the lower end of the responsibility would be 'no considerable fault' and if that is the verdict in April a ban is required.

His diabetes could indeed play a role and his return from injury has been impressive for sure.

@@tennisweeklypodcast Why is this never mentiond though when his performances are judged? It could be a big factor and explain why he sometimes looks flat or has these sudden drops in his level during matches (he used to suddenly just give sets away), or also why he might struggle with nerves sometimes, seeing how blood sugar fluctuations can make you super jittery or unfocused. I think all factors shuld be mentioned and explained to viewers and taken into account when looking at a match.

Sasha's problem on court is clearly mental

@@andrealupoli871 Not per se. He said in his german presser he didnt feel nerves (unlike the other two times, so he admits to it) . Seemed like he really did not find a way against the machine Sinner, and maybe he did have some energy issues. I noticed he needed a few insulin shots.

100% agree. Well said 👍🏼

Right - it's giving Lendl-Murray!

We should just put a picture of Alcaraz top left.

@tennisweeklypodcast yes then the viewer would have full transparency.

Great stats, thanks for sharing. Madison's run was just incredible. SO deserved and so wonderful to watch.

We didn't express our views in this podcast. We presented the facts of what happened on the day and in the ceremony. We do not enjoy people screaming out during ceremonies. Happy to share some of our previous episodes with our views and coverage of the allegations if you would be interested. Settlements although often perceived as an admission of guilt do ultimately bring an end to proceedings as both parties agree to move on, so must we.

So he will perform better at altitude? ⛷️🏔️
