one for the scandal girlies...

it's been rumoured for a while that something happened between Lorenzo Musetti (who is married with kids) and the ex-girlfriend of Matteo Berrettini. there's video from this week of Berrettini being asked about Musetti's recent title win at the 250 in Lyon.

"Musetti won a title for the first time in a while - does that serve as inspiration?"
"Is it live?"
"Yes, we're live."
"Uhhhh...... it's okay. *laughs* I'm, uhh... I know he worked really hard to come back and I guess he deserved it."
*finishes interview*

I wish I could post it here but you can watch on Reddit. quite a tasty (and testy) response.
streets are saying that Musetti slept with Berrettini's girlfriend while they were still together - his wife's brother has since joined his coaching team having apparently been installed by the wife. and they're competing for spots in the same Davis Cup team. what a mess! :disco:
 
it's really fun having Carlos playing again, in his fluorescent yellow shorts with his silly little moustache. even though he's not as consistent as before he's just so much fun to watch. the way he can suddenly turn it on and play a killer game or a drop shot that's art. king.
 
Zverev #1 in the live rankings and will be officially #1 on Monday.

I have an idea how I can help them make up but they need to be open-minded.
 
de Minaur was brilliant. he'll be battered by Carlos though I fear.
 
Dart just beat Tagger! Her first WTA title.

Also, I didn't realise she'd hired Marion Bartoli as her coach. She must have been a calming influence on her. :eyes:
 
I'll give Harriet credit, she's a fighter & every match but one including in qualifying went to 3 sets, so she definitely earned it. Couldn't call her likeable though.

She’s been working with Bartoli since the clay season. Dart is one of the most entitled, spoilt players both on and off the court. on the ITF tour she’s a nightmare but yeah, she earned this win the hard way this week.
 
I'm really obsessed with de Minaur's fit this week. he looks like a twink cosplaying as a tennis player at a theme party.
 
Arthur Fils confirmed for the ATP Finals in Turin (having won one Grand Slam match all year)

qualified - Alcaraz, Zverev, Shelton, Medvedev, Cobolli* (injury concern), Fils

meaning 2-3 slots left for - Djokovic, Tiafoe, Fritz, Paul, Jódar, de Minaur
 
Andreeva comes down from 1-4 in the first set to beat Sabalenka 6-4 6-0. :o :disco:

everything very up in the air after 4/6 games played in each group.

Noskova - 2 wins (into semis)
Pegula - 1 win
Gauff - 1 win
Kostyuk - 0 wins (out)

Andreeva - 2 wins (into semis)
Sabalenka - 1 win
Svitolina - 1 win
Muchova - 0 wins (out)

the winner of Svit vs Sabs on Friday goes through with Andreeva. in group A if Pegula beats Noskova tomorrow then she is through, even if Gauff also wins. but Noskova is looking so sharp, so I think Gauff will take second slot.
 
Coco looked down and out struggling with her back after winning the first set against Kostyuk. But then Kostyuk had a proper meltdown and lost the second set 5-7 after being up 5-1 :wow:
 
Kostyuk wins zero sets at the finals and has lost her last six matches going back to the US open. oops!

now can Jess beat Noskova? 🙏
