Hoping to see both these women play in Indian Wells next year (got to see Osaka 2 years ago before she blew up). Maybe I’ll get lucky and see them play each other!

Giri Nathan on Tennis....buy stock in kleenex whenever you hear those words because I’m digging it

I won’t pronounce him back until I hear a good tirade directed at his player’s box.

then-world No. 69 Tennys Sandgren

Yes, he’s had a tough year- the tour is a worse place without him, and the Big Three doesn't quite have the same ring as the Big Four. Long may the comeback continue!

I have weirdly mixed feelings about this. I love watching Murray and he has always had a sense of humanity that’s been a great contrast to the gods, Fed/Nadal/Djoker. But coming in the days after celebrating Andrew Luck for hanging it up and not dealing with lifelong pain, I dunno. Obviously he knows what’s best and…

Hard to imagine any everyday Aussie to go 6 months without yelling “cunt” in public much less Kyrgios.

Giri is hands-down the best writer in tennis right now.

I’m still here. Hope to write more on Bianca soon, probably the most impressive season in tennis.

Glad to know I wasn’t the only one worried about him

Giri!  I’ve missed your coverage of the US Open.  I was starting to worry you had left Deadspin.  Nice to see you’re still here! I hope you do a piece on the women’s final.  Always enjoy your tennis analysis.

It wasn’t just the last set, his forehand was wild all night.  Dimitrov played as well as he can, and Fed played about as bad as he can, and it still went 5 sets.

Because I’m a nerd, I tend to get all wound up in “Can we call her one of the GOATs without any qualifiers?” because she can’t beat men. Then I realize that’s a pretty useless distinction. She’s been so dominant for so long. Excellent in all facets of the game. Definitely one of the best to ever do it.

Lol Rolex is one of the tournament’s sponsors, not Medvedev's. Please direct your anger at Lacoste and Tecnifibre.

Still more tolerable than Kyrgios.

Let me get this right. This fucking guy decided to shoot people that weren’t Larry Nassar?

Re: Football - Honestly, if that snarling linebacker so much as fakes a lunge at me pre-snap, I’m going to shit my pants and run off the field.

“Im good enough,

I did not know you could show that much class and call somebody a fucking beast at the same time, but there you go.
