A few days ago, Casper Ruud showed his support for Iga Swiatek on X after her heavy loss to Coco Gauff.

During the press conference following his final victory against Jack Draper in Madrid, the Norwegian justified his support: "I went online and saw a video of her looking devastated on the court…

I felt like she needed support, so I did my best to lift her spirits.

I think she’s an incredible player. And not just her—I find women’s tennis really exciting to watch right now: Sabalenka is dominating, Iga has won five Grand Slams in her young career, Coco is third, and so on."

After his triumph in Madrid, Swiatek made sure to congratulate him: "So so cool. Congratulations."

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.?
