    Indeed!
    As many bees as double faults from Gauff.

    A testament to her athleticism that she can be competitive serving so many.

    New coach,new training regime perhaps. Different strains on the body?

    Dart loses in qualies in Miami.

    Evans and Murray play Italians. Sonego and Berrettini respectively.

    I see Halep has returned from her drugs ban,

    Probably take her a while to get back up to speed with things.

    Good win for Jack Draper - guess the question is can he stay fit ?!

    Murray coming from behind against Berrettini who has been struggling with the heat .

    Badosa v Halep was a good match,Badosa having been injured for most of the last year.

    Unfortunate choice of words for Halep,given the offence!

    Matteo has had a horrible time over the last two years, he's hardly played. I was amazed he completed the match. Such a shame for him,very likeable man and a Viola fan!

    I would have expected Draper to win that comfortably but given his history in hot,steamy weather it was a decent win.

    Surely that has to be the end of the road ? He wasn’t planning to play much after the summer and presume summer would be passed by the time he’ll be fully recovered and regained enough fitness to be able to play competitively?

    Lad at the club, assisting with the view to being a coach,told the senior trainee he was late because the bus driver didn't see him.

    Unfortunate.

    Unbelievable as the lad is 6'7" with an afro and feet the size of triremes!

    Something about tennis and aspiring coaches of the male species!
