If you are still around

The Aeolian islands in Sicily most well known archipelgo and definately some of the best islands in the region

I better stop I am sounding like a travel agent from Italy :)
A great car trip that Peter and I did was the Great Lakes of Italy and drove all the way to Swiss
Back to the ladies tennis
You’ll charge me a fee, that’s what I’m worried about :lulz1:

Memo to all the men today the wind is swirling around on Chatrier today
The No 1 player womens player, Sabalenka, just got beaten in 3 sets as she could not adjust to the wind.

One day, Roger is going to admit that he NEVER had to practice before he played a big match against Andy.. @don_fabio knows what I am talking about when you have someone's number there is very little pressure and all you have to do is wait for the brainless Bull to make his move.
True. You go into the match with more confidence knowing you beat the guy several times before and usually the opponent will self destruct too. We have a lot of examples of insane H2H where the guy owns another one. Like Rafa against Gasquet or Novak against Monfils.

Agreed. I remember Edberg had a 10-0 record against Muster, including 4 wins on clay. Another weird one was Santoro 7-2 H2H over Safin.

Shit man, tennis is already a difficult game as it is , a game of millimeters...Now you have to fight the wind on top of that? Kudos to both FAA and Cobolli out there trying to do their respective best.
First set to FAA.

If Cobolli holds on its a guaranteed Italian in the final.
