Russian & Belarusian flags have been banned from courts. Some Russki waved the flag cheering on his compatriot (who happened to be playing a Ukrainian) and it kicked off a minor diplomatic emergency.
The world has lost it’s mind.
Whoops
Nadal is out in straight sets. He “injured” himself in the 2nd set
Strange how Nadal can overcome these “injuries” in Paris but not so much in Melbourne, London or New York.
It’s one of life’s great mysteries that he is talked about in the same breath as Dkokovic.
And as for the GOAT, Federer. It’s actually laughable
Djokovic Injured now.
Medvedev 2 sets and a break down to Sebastian korda.
If i was Russian, I’d refuse to play in this tournament. Completely blackguarded by the authorities.
Ben Shelton and Tommy Paul heading for another tie-breaker
Lots of camera cuts to Paige Lorenze in this
Paul to serve for the match
First American semi-finalist since Roddick in '09, Shelton will be around for the next while too
Hopefully Sabalenka walks this tonight and then calls out Tennis Australia whilst draped in a Belarusian flag.
WHAT A MAN
