Elena Rybakina was asked what skill she wishes she had that she doesn’t have right now
“What’s a skill you would like to have that you don’t have at the moment?”
Elena: “Maybe sing or dance because this is something for sure opposite of me. I’m really bad & everything. So this is something that would be cool to know how to do”
“Elena this is the perfect spot to sing and dance!”
Elena: “No, no! Maybe in my next life” 😂😂😂

Learner Tien says he still lives at home with his parents, ‘My family has been such a big part of my life forever. It’s hard to think of a life without them’
“You just turned 20. When you’re at home, do your parents still treat you as a kid? Are you still living at home with your mom and dad?”
Learner: “I still do live at home. I think this year some time I’ll probably get my own place. My parents are still very much involved in my life. I’m very grateful to them for it. My family has been such a big part of my life forever. It’s hard to think of a life without them. I’m very fortunate. They still do a lot for me.” 🥹

This year I completed my calendar slam. 9 Novak matches, 8 wins 1 loss (AO semi).
Best overall: Wimbledon
* Best ticket quality/price ratio. You have to queue but you get rewarded beautifully for it. The best tickets in the house are reserved for the queue. 👏
* No ads, very intimate, gorgeous grounds
* Best signature drink (Pimm’s Cup)
* Most well behaved crowd
AO
* Best location (walking distance from Melbourne CBD)
* Good ticket availability, second most expensive
* Worst overall crowd (sorry they booed Novak)
* Best fun outside tennis (Australia❣️❣️❣️)
Roland Garros:
* Most beautiful court: Philippe Chatrier (sorry Centre Court)
* Worst crowd when French players are on court
* Great grounds (court Simone Matthieu is also a jewel)
* Very intimate practice courts
* Worst food
* Reasonably priced tickets but almost impossible to get
USO
* Most fun! Arthur Ashe is something else indeed.
* Obscenely expensive tickets boooooo 😡
* Hardest to get close to players both in practice and matches
* Best food / drinks (not a fan of the Honey Deuce but they made me buy it 🤣)
* Worst location, but the 7 train gets you in and out nicely.
* Non match days you’re in NYC so that’s that. ❣️
Anna Kalinskaya says Holger Rune wrote to her 10 times and then gave up 🤣🤣🤣
"He writes to everyone, it seems...He thinks too much of himself...but he's not the only one like that."😂💀
