Rough start to the comeback for Serena.
I think this underscores how much Serena and Venus need to be together. That’s where their success lies.

In an emotional moment, at the age of 30, Kamil Majchrzak wins his first title in ‘s-Hertogenbosch.
After narrowly escaping the first round, he defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime, Daniil Medvedev, and, in the final, Alex de Minaur.

It’s too often we look past players like Majchrzak because of the stars we have at the very top.
But our sport would be so much healthier if we looked around a little.
There are so many great stories like Majchrzak every single week in tennis. We just have to be open to them.

What is this Mouratoglou slop anymore?!?
What is Rangaros?
What is this fictitious scoreline?
What are these bullshit stats?
Just…what?!?

Producers got to McEnroe on Cabahlli. 😂
#RolandGarros
You say Cobolli.
John McEnroe says Cabahlli.
(Never mind the fact that he was talking about Arnaldi.)

Which best describes you?
a) If Cobolli drops the 1st set, I’m out.
b) If Cobolli loses the first two sets, I’m done.
c) Watching all of it, hoping for a miracle.
d) Keeping an eye on the score and will watch if it seems Cobolli will win.
e) I’m not watching.

Maja Chwalinska won more singles matches than anybody at this year’s French Open.
She just couldn’t get the final one.
Mirra Andreeva takes the title 6-3, 6-2.

John McEnroe not piecing together why Sinner’s name doesn’t end in a vowel is just…🤦🏻♂️

Going out on a limb here and saying it’s probably a good thing there are privacy spaces at #RolandGarros

It's super strange that the commentators thought the closed roof would benefit Zverev instead of Jodar, the guy who hits big with tighter margins.

Is it too soon to talk about how Venus and Serena are positioning themselves to end their careers with gold medals around their necks in their hometown of Los Angeles in 2028?

Anisimova hugging the baseline isn’t rushing Parry.
She’s rushing herself.
Her team should have instructed her to hang back for a shot or two until she’s in control of the point. This isn’t a hard court.

It’s stunning that the two best men’s tennis players in the world can only be defeated by each other and their own bodies.

In our Roland-Garros preview, I wrote that the weather would likely be Sinner’s biggest opponent.
And here we are.
