Arthur Rinderknech could not pull off an upset against Carlos Alcaraz, losing in three sets. In a press conference, he reacted:

"It's never easy to face one of the two best players at the moment. I was lucky enough to play the No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 in the last three Grand Slams, each on the center court: for a tennis enthusiast like me, it's a great experience.

Unfortunately, today it's a loss. I had a plan, I took my chances, and gave my all.

The task was very complicated, and it ended 3-0, but at times it wasn't so far off. I'll take some things away from this and try to do better," he said in comments relayed by Tennis Actu.

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.?
