It's the beginning of a hecatomb of withdrawals for this summer's Olympic Games in Paris. The Olympic tournament means a return to clay, which is not to everyone's taste. A number of top players have already announced their withdrawal.

They include Andrey Rublev, Karen Khachanov, Jiri Lehecka, Aryna Sabelenka, Ben Shelton, Madison Keys, Sebastian Korda and Ons Jabeur.

A new addition to this long list is Frances Tiafoe. The American player, much appreciated by the public for his attacking and spectacular tennis, has decided not to play, preferring to concentrate on the US Open, his main objective for the season: "I don't want to go back to playing on clay.

The Games are insignificant compared to what I'm trying to do at the US Open. This is my tournament. I love my country, but I think I need to think about myself and my career."

I absolutely agree that tennis is not for the Olympics... Neither is football basketball cricket rugby baseball etc... all these major sports that have plenty of competition throughout the year, every year do not have a place at the Olympic games.

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.

Grenier def Ysu 6-2 , 6-2 at Kobe today and the TT canceled the match.

2nd for me this week.

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.

Son of a gun, pow. You going for the 3peat? Do it, but I'm chasing and so is Jimandlori. lol

POWWOW , Congratulations you did it again and by slim percentage points. Keep it going....
