Novak Djokovic advanced yesterday to the Round of 16 in Miami, where he will face Lorenzo Musetti for the ninth time in his career.

During the press conference, the Serbian was asked about his training session with Federico Gomez, ranked 138th in the world, who had opened up a few weeks ago about his long battle with depression and suicidal thoughts:

"We trained together today—he helped me warm up before the match. But we didn’t really have time to talk.

I believe we’re training again tomorrow, so I hope we’ll have a bit more time to reflect on it. Honestly, I can relate to a lot of what he wrote.

We all have dark moments. Psychologically and emotionally, we go through a lot.

I have a lot of empathy for him. I told him I’m here to help if he wants to share anything with me."

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
