US Open 2024. Moments of frustration.
„I played terrible… From the baseline I played absolutely terrible. I don’t know. I did nothing to deserve to win.“
„Now I say it’s a disaster… I didn’t know how to handle it the best way.“
„I need to change myself“.

To be continued…
The Battle of the Ascetics: Sinner vs Medvedev.
They both have an asthenic physique. Medvedev looks more positive than usual. Sinner… hard to say.
If both approach the match with the same attitude, it could drag on for four or five hours.
Tennis Gossips.
Post deleted by Paola Gadosa after Stefanos Tsitsipas angry outburst.
The world No. 29 tweeted: “Of course. We ALL have reactions like that on a court unfortunately. Frustration and stress is very normal in sports. Can you people chill? Are you going to judge every single step? You are very tiring!”
Unfortunately guys, it’s a part of a show and a well paid one…
A balance of internal and external motivation is one of the secrets to a long successful career. But it's so hard not to feel immense external pressure.
Only those who are driven by passion for the game continue the marathon without a dopamine crash.

What happens after a defeat?
Expectations and big money, tonnes of crap in the media and monstrous physical fatigue the next morning.
The only positive thing that can stay with a player is the desire to play.
Just to show HOW it really is.
It has been the longest match in the history of USOpen since 1970 - 5h 35 min.
Khachanov vs Evans.
Both had cramps at the end of the exhausting match.
Evans was showing it in front of the public, while stoic Khachanov just went through…
"Sinner and his team know the truth", sounds like an indirect accusation to me, even after polishing with words about how awful the tennis player feels after receiving the letter.
