Now, that is how you seal a set. 🎯🤯 Ben Shelton

We got some of our Majesticks GC Little Sticks kids to rate my gold outfit…the reactions are priceless😆 Love how our Little Sticks programme introduces new kids to the game and puts a smile on their faces…even if that is to my detriment😂

Fat Joe watching Novak Djokovic and Cam Norrie at the U.S. Open

Novak outlasts Norrie to get the break late in the first set!

Sabalenka seals the first set with a winner over Leylah Fernandez!

Players and fans and marching bands appear to have caught a phenomenal break across a wide swath of the country. Temperatures are unusually mild, and forecast to be in many places tomorrow. Play your starters maximum snaps!

Novak left the court for a MTO due to a back injury in the first set Before the match, Cam Norrie commented on Djokovic’s “tactical timeouts”

Not good…

I understand the tradition of men playing 3 of 5 sets in majors, but given the way tennis is played now, the demands of more travel, more extreme heat & the depth in the game making early rounds more demanding, we need to have a shorter format. I hope Ben & Novak are ok.

The best description of first-week Ashe that I've ever read, by giri (read CHANGEOVER):

Krejcikova from a break down to a break up in the 3rd.

Score: Love all 🎾❤️ #USOpen

StryderJa Bob Harig Interested to see what changes will come out of the process. Just as interested in what additional changes LIV might need to do to get OWGR.

Linda Renner StryderJa This will likely be good for the fans. A better product. Not necessarily best for rank and file players. There might be fewer events but better ones. Not sure LIV really has any impact. They’d be better served playing on down tour weeks so as to be additive rather making people

Sabalenka into the last 16 of a Slam for the 17th time, 6th at the #USOpen. She reached the second week in 16 of the last 18 Slams she played. Absurd.

POINT!

Linda Renner StryderJa Yep true

Wow. Cam Norrie comes back from a minibreak down in the tiebreak and takes the 2nd set vs. Djokovic. 4-6, 7-6(4).
