@wazzamelbourne @Liambroady

@Liambroady Don’t forget Andrew Castle.

Kygrios has never been top 10!? Is he the best player never to make it in there!?

@tennisabstract I'd be tempted to send them fake data if they insist on abusing the site like that. An alternate reality where Bernie won everything, for example.

We are back to normal, AFAICT. Alibaba's AI is going to absolutely cook on tennis stuff, now that I have sent their crawlers about 10MM pages worth of "Access denied."

I understand some of you are having trouble accessing the site. Sorry. I'm getting absolutely hammered by Alibaba bots, presumably crawlers for AI purposes. Usually the site gets ~1MM requests per day, and ~20% get blocked. Last few days, it's *4MM*/day, and half get blocked.

@mammybear20 @ScotlandNT @FIFAWorldCup That was this morning, they're still at it.

@ScotlandNT @FIFAWorldCup I can imagine (or hope ) they are feeling rough this morning

Dressing room SCENES 🙌 #FIFAWorldCup | @FIFAWorldCup

lol, perfect

@rusty_cpt @taku0x @BBCSportScot Haha it was!

@taku0x @BBCSportScot Thought it was a commentator shouting it lol

THIS is how Scotland qualify for a World Cup. Take a bow, Kenny McLean. #BBCFootball

The BBC Scotland commentary for Kenny McLean’s halfway line goal is glorious. Stuff of dreams. 🔥

‘There’s only one Connor Bradley’ rings around Anfield pre kick-off after Trent’s name was booed when it was read out. It won’t be pretty if/when he comes on.

@DonaldsonESPN Absolute highway robbery, but I'll take it

“They Steve Clarke-d it” - Scott Brown 😂

@jakedavi5 fuck's sake, chose the wrong match to watch it seems

Omgggg I've never seen a 4-4 game in my life?! Erection Erection!

@VoodeMar Ryan is aging at Wayne Rooney speed.

#Henman looks excellent standing at #Harrison who is 18 years younger

@88w1nner88 @damiankust

@LucaBeck @VoodeMar Remember Mischa Zverev did it once

@VoodeMar 4 DF in a row in the same game, pretty sure Pioline did it at least 2 times in Slam (Maybe vs Sampras USopen '93 and vs Rafter 97 or 98)

serving to win the match, Struff missed his 7 serves in a row, probably never seen something like this, actually I've never seen 4 straight double faults in professional tennis - it occurred to me twice in my life as I was playing tennis

@TrentonJocz @mattracquet Johnny Groove in under two hours.

@mattracquet You'll know for sure if he says Grassray would beat either of these guys 6-0

Todd Woodbridge on commentary: “Wimbledon now plays the equivalent of a slow hard court”. Absolutely nothing supports this. Wimbledon plays nothing like Indian Wells. Its ace rate is higher than or equivalent to Shanghai, Australian Open, & Cincinnati (medium fast to fast courts)

sinner “seals” the set (sorry, had to be done)

Nothing says entitled tennis crowd twattery like a champagne cork on game point.

Do feel Sinner is intimidated by Alcaraz. Just for periods of their matches, but it's enough to make a difference.
