Insolite - Osaka has lost her stuff!

Naomi Osaka is in a bit of a panic.

Having just arrived in Cincinnati to play in the WTA 1000, which gets underway this Tuesday, the former world number one has just revealed that her airline (United Airlines) has mislaid her luggage.

Publicité

Using her status as a professional player, she didn't hesitate to call out the main parties concerned on social networks: "I've lost my bags and if I don't get them back tonight or tomorrow, I literally won't be able to play in Cincinnati."

Arriving with all necessary gear is her responsibility, no one else's. Placing this in the hands of an airline company that screws up everyday is a risk and also her choice. My suggestion would be to have a carry I. with rackets, clothes, shoes, whatever is needed to play for the time when your luggage does not get there due to these circumstances.

I wonder why she wouldn't be able to play? There are tennis shops in Cinci where she can buy clothes, shoes, tennis rackets, etc. Friend lost his luggage on trip and he bought a cheap pair of shoes and cheap, pre-strung racket. I laughed saying he wouldn't be able to play with that cheap racket. He agreed that would likely be the case, but it turned out he played quite well, proving the old adage the most important part of the racket is between shoulder and the finger tips. I'm just saying no reason should couldn't give it a go.

Hope you understand that each tennis player has their own specific racket and tensions which they don't reveal to the outside world.

She is ultimately responsible for having all necessary gear there. Putting that responsibility in the hands of an airlines company is taking a huge risk and is also her choice. My suggestion would be to carry on a bag with a few rackets, clothes and anything that would prevent her from playing.

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.
