Jannik Sinner is making his big comeback to competition this Friday against Mariano Navone in Rome. His coach, Simone Vagnozzi, spoke about the stakes of this return: "There was no better place than Rome to start from scratch: we’re finally back to talking about tennis, which is what interests us.

It was wonderful to be back on the center court, with so many spectators. For a tennis player, being healthy and not being able to compete is the hardest thing.

Jannik is a fierce competitor—without that, he felt empty. Now, he knows he can get back to doing what he loves. The first two matches will be crucial to getting back into the swing of things.

It will be a little tough; he’ll have to get dirty, sweat, win, maybe not perfectly at first, and gradually find his rhythm again."

Thanks for the good words of support. And to d smith (cherrycoke) I am moved by your words and wish you had been around to experience what I'm referring to. As it is there are revolving groups of players each week. The ones in question might be moved out to another group 1 week in four. That means for 3 weeks of every 4 there is unfair play. If you are buying boosts the odds are greatly in your f...

There are a group of players who feel the need to win and spend a bunch of money to add boosts to their predictions. That is ok if they have it to spend. Many of us do not.

I feel these should have their own group(s). An extra 4-6-8 points makes a difference in a week. I don't want to play in unfair rules.
