Two Sinners won in California today: Jannik in Indian Wells, and the movie “Sinners” at the Oscars.

@DaveSammel Cara Black, and Martina Navratilova. Too easy.

Anybody watching the Australian Open in the USA can watch it live on ESPN Deportes Vivo. If you are an Optimum cable subscriber, in the New York area, it’s on channel 227 (next to Tennis Channel on 226).

@AustralianOpen @wwos @espn @tntsports @wowowtennis It’s Spizzirri time and we are having a watch party in Greenwich, Conn. Funny that we are getting it live on ESPN Desportes Vivo.

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

Yes! Very entertained!

[ATP Tour @atptour]

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED 🤯🤯🤯

@jon_wertheim @atptour Excellent! But they forgot to mention that he played tennis at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas when it was a division 1 college. Great guy!

Front row tickets for the first day of the WTA finals in Riyadh are $22. That’s a good price for 4 matches.

But the match resumed at 6:07 pm, Florida Time. It’s sunny again.

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

It was nice and sunny about 20 minutes ago at the @DavisCup at Delray Beach, with the doubles being played, and Czechia was ahead in the second set after losing the first set in a tiebreaker. Suddenly the siren went off for lightening and everybody had to evacuate the stadium.

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

@WillBoucek Let’s all cross our fingers that when the rain comes, it will be quick, and the courts will be dry for the first rubber!🤞

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

@WillBoucek Yay, home tie! Much more convenient to get to than Taipei!

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

@TickTockTennis No dead zone here. Davis Cup next! USA vs Czechia in Delray Beach!

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

And less than 2 years later, the ��🇿 sister act win the U.S. Open junior girls doubles title.

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

If you watched 15-year old Czech Alena Kovackova win the Wimbledon juniors in 2023, you should keep an eye on her 14-year old sister Jana who won the #JOB23 @veltri_tennis Orange Bowl 14 & Unders in Florida today. Another Czech sister act to watch for in the future!

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

And the #5 seeds won! Wow. What a match.

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

Anybody else pulling their hair out with this men’s doubles final? Wow, at 40 years old, Zeballos and Granollers are serving for the championship.

[Ex tennis journalist @Extennisjournal]

It was a smaller, more intimate circle of full-time tennis writers and photographers back then. Art Seitz, Mel DiGiacomo, Michael Cole, Carol Newsom and more. Back when the players could hang out freely on the club terrace, watching matches without getting mobbed by spectators.

Art Seitz, Whose Camera Caught Tennis Greats On and Off the Court, Dies at 82 https://t.co/pY82zKVcAz via @NYTimes
Thanks to @christophclarey for catching this earlier today in the NYT obits. Art was a character, part of the old guard of ‘70s and ‘80s tennis photographers (more)
