@BarclayCard18 He cramps all the time - team needs to sort out his hydration. If you coach in a very hot humid location you know very well about hydration and how it can take a full week sometimes more to recover from severe hydration loss. You need to out infront of this rather than catch up!
I am against violence. I am against celebrating violence. I’m praying for peace. I’m praying for healing. I’m praying for the family, especially the children. I know what they’re going through. I’ve been through it.
I’m deeply scared for this country. The way some people are reacting on both sides is dangerous. If I had one wish right now it would be for everyone to please just step back and take a breath and remember we are all just sophisticated apes trying to coexist on a rock hurtling through space.
If we cannot tolerate polite and reasoned disagreement then there is no hope for our society.
There is a famous quote falsely attributed to Voltaire that however does sum up a principle of enlightenment philosophy, ‘I disagree with what you say, but I would die to defend your right to say it.’
The ideas of people like John Locke and Voltaire and Thomas Paine are what lead to the American Revolution which then inspired the French Revolution. They introduced the World to the idea that individual rights were important and should be protected from Monarchs (tyrants and dictators), and ultimately led to the idea that a country should be governed by its people NOT by the Church and NOT by a King.
If citizens don’t protect and respect each other’s right to disagree, then we cannot have a democracy. If we do not protect our right to disagree then we’ll get violence.
We do NOT want a society where violence is the way we win arguments, because then nobody wins. Everyone loses.
We are ALL losing right now. The whole society is losing together. Losing to violence. It’s unbelievably sad. It took so much work to get us here. We can’t throw it all away like spoilt children.
I did NOT agree with Charlie Kirk’s views on MANY important topics. I know he helped get Trump elected and people hate him for that. But he was a conservative Christian. What do you expect a conservative Christian to believe? How can those views surprise you? He argued those views calmly, reasonably, and considerately as far as I’ve seen.
But no matter what he did not deserve this. His wife did not deserve this. His kids did NOT deserve to have their world torn apart!
The way some people are being so cold and uncaring and even celebrating is disturbing and repugnant to me. It is making me physically ill. If you are celebrating the murder of a non-violent man for his opinions then you are NOT the better person. Look in the mirror. Imagine telling his kids how you feel. Step back. Take a breath. Remember we are all humans. We are all just flickers of consciousness in an endless eternity. Love IS the answer. I really mean it.
We are quite literally ALL in this together. If this ship sinks we ALL drown. Look around you. Everyone you see is a shipmate. We have to figure this out. We have no other choice.
The Australien Government and the Opposition have made an ad about Minority Governments, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

The list of “enemies” on the right or left has changed, as the left is now pro war and has captured the judiciary, but the general principle is timeless
@SenatorCash Morrison did an excellent job of losing trillions of dollars in trade with China. We are only just recovering from probably the biggest blunder from the liberal party in half a century! Nah we ok under labour at the moment..since they have fixed most of it!
@JohnBar09215004@DarrenWalton369@WTA@AustralianOpen Thought that might get a comment from you! I feel the isometric head shape suits players who like to hit thru the ball. While babolat particularly fav more shape/height spin. Wilson is a mixed bag they have models that do both. I also think yonex best for injury prevention..
@pavyg@Madison_Keys Must get a time violation. Typical dominance behaviour from a top player. The peaking order is very strong in women's tennis. Sharapova used to turned her back to opponent. The rule is: the receiver shall play to the reasonable pace of the server. Not visa versa!
@TheTennisLetter Experienced pro deals with this situation continually all thru their career from juniors to Grand Slams. Sometimes it's real sometimes it's fake sometimes the meds take time to kick in. At this level coach has to be tough on his young player..
@frani2312 Federer hardly ever injured and very few withdrawals during the tournament. Way more injury proof than Djokovic if you look at stats over 20 years. Must be the Swiss muesli...
