Not Djokovic

Following my poll yesterday, now Djokovic is out. Does this mean it is Zverev's best chance of getting that elusive grand slam? Is it his year?

Whatever happens now, none of the players in the men's draw have ever won a slam before. It's more open and very interesting.

Serves her right for being unsportsmanlike in Madrid! Great work Andreeva!

Lol Kostyuk refused to shake Andreeva’s hand in Madrid because she’s unsportsmanlike. Now getting her clocked cleaned. Love it.

Well done Marta, for not shaking hands. Russians shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near sporting events
