Fonseca gives Van Assche a tennis lesson and reaches the Next Gen Masters final

Joao Fonseca is clearly destined to be an excellent tennis player. The 18-year-old Brazilian nugget has just qualified for the Masters Next Gen final.

The real attraction of the week, Fonseca tamed Luca Van Assche with bluffing authority (4-2, 4-2, 4-1 in 59 minutes).

Excellent in all areas of the game (20 winners, 4 unforced errors, 6 aces, 85% of points won on first serve, 0 break points conceded), he totally disgusted a Frenchman who seemed almost resigned at the end of the match.

To round off his magnificent week, Fonseca will attempt to win the trophy this Sunday against a player he already beat in pool play a few days ago: Learner Tien.

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
