When I interviewed Swiatek before the tournament she told me she had received 20 books for her 20th birthday last year. It is quite a list (some of it below, all of it with the link). How many of these have you read? nytimes.com/live/2022/06/04/…

Ash Barty says her coach Craig Tyzer is the world’s best coach. Gives her input before her matches, then let’s her work it out on court. He NEVER coaches from the side lines. She’s done ok 😳

Same old argument-the most flawed of which is mid/lower can’t afford coaches or good ones. They all have coaches and there are great coaches at every pay scale. 2nd,everyone coaches during matches-the “joy”of problem solving is naive. Coaching is unenforced. Enforce or legalize.

Brian is 70?! Incredible. Can’t believe it. Wonderful player and teacher.

Couldn’t disagree more. The joy of solving issues in battle is part of the skill of one to one battles. Also not a level playing field. Mid/lower ranked players can’t afford own coach

Coaching needs to be “legal” in #tennis. Finally time. Copy the NextGen format where they sit close to the court in a corner. Worked great in Milan this year. Zero problems. Why put coaches in a grey area where they don’t really know what they can & can’t do/say? Solid article 👇

Seems clear Naomi being pressured to comment on emotive non tennis issues in the past is not conducive to mental health if personality is “shy” & “introverted “. Enough pressure already doing her job. Advisers need to step up.

Agree absolutely 👍

i feel like the screaming and some of the really long extended grunts on men’s tour are way over the top, needs to be looked at as hindering, and we need to stop 🛑 at juniors asap, heard a young kid the other day as loud as tour players was worried 😟 would hurt vocal cords

RIP Daphne Fancutt. Spent my teenage years at Fancutts Tennis Centre being coached by Trevor, with much support from Daphne. Aust Tennis owes she & Trevor much. I owe them both so very much! Much love now to Trevor & boys. Never forgotten ❤️

Always enjoy Mary Jo Fernandez’s match analysis, & again in today’s final. Clear & succinct 👏👏

Gr8 to hear Alex de Minaur apologise & take ownership of his first mid match racquet abuse last match. Timely reminder from Novak as to just what can go wrong if not addressed early 😳

The toxicity and hate on this platform is staggering. I certainly wouldn't want my grandchildren anywhere near it. If people want to be spiteful that's their choice. To anyone who remotely listens to me, please avoid personal attacks and vile abuse. We're better than that.
