Jannik Sinner hugging a ball kid before his match in Rome. Adorable scenes. 🥹🤏

🎙️ (Ubaldo) "Here with the sun and the heat, wearing black doesn't help. Have you thought about it?" 🦊 "Ubaldo... Mamma mia. Here in Rome me wearing all back is a tradition and I want to keep it this way. Sometimes it's hotter, sometimes a bit less" 😭

Averaged insights of a not so average streak🔥 Take a look at Sinner's *averaged* insights during his 32 match win streak at Masters 1000 level🧐 His peak shot qualities at match level during this streak....

NO SERVE BUT WE WON TYL

Pasig??? Man no world-class venue there Pushing to hold the event down south and now that that didnt pan out, likely no venues are available here na to book Petition to not let Manila host events until PNVF cleans out its shameful crises

For a moment it looked like the sun was getting to Jannik but we held on and prevailed in 2 whew Darth Sinner is a look and a half but that black in daylight is lowkey stressing me out 😂

Backhand brilliance⭐ @janniksin missed 1 backhand in the entire match today, add that to high speeds + spins and you've got yourself a 9.5 shot quality score👏 His average backhand speed of 79mph is higher than the tour average for forehand topspin speed of 78mph😮 #TennisInsights | @atptour | @InteBNLdItalia

Petition to ATP to use a Darth Sinner photo instead of this chartreuse hate crime please please please @atptour

Coco Gauff after her match: “I know you guys are ready for Jannik Sinner, can we get some cheers for Jannik?” 😭😭😭🫶🏻

Black in the daylight, god help us 🙏

@eeajjo All this to say that im a huge fan and that i am grateful that you share your talent and that I can debrief every sinnerball day by reading your recaps so imma shut up now and just...THANKS BYE🧡

@eeajjo As an avid reader of your work, i just want to say thank you for choosing to still write Fox Boy recaps despite this experience. I have to say that reading your work has been a huge part of my debriefing sinnerball matches. 🧡

This is a strange post for me to write, and I’ve been going back and forth on the merits of doing so. However, there has been a false narrative quietly circulating in my comments today. And, whilst I usually avoid TT controversy and conflict like I’m Fox Boy when it comes time to pop a champagne bottle, given the personal nature on this occasion, I felt obliged to respond. A year ago, Jannik played his first match back in Rome. At the time, I was relatively new to Tennis Twitter. I tweeted a small joke paragraph about the match, which (shockingly) extended out beyond my 1.5 followers. One lovely individual (who to this day is still one of the most devout followers of my recaps 🩷) messaged me to request I post a similar blurb every match, because she would read “1000 words of this every day”. Whilst I laughed it off at the time, the lure of a new challenge had lodged in my brain, and I eventually dipped my toe in the ginger recap water at RG. Almost immediately, I became aware (through people tagging her) that there was another extremely talented individual who also wrote recaps of carrot matches, and had already been doing so for years. Delighted, I immediately followed her, because I found her writing to be hilarious, but also because, what were the odds?! Luckily, it quickly became apparent to me that, short of using the same descriptor in the headline, and featuring the same ginger heroine triumphing in all of the stories, there was no overlap in our work, and therefore no toes to be accidentally stepped on. And, until today, I was unaware that she, or anyone else, apparently did not share that perspective. I have now learned there is a perception that I directly plagiarised or piggybacked onto another person’s idea and work, and I will only vehemently deny this. In fact, whilst this was my first foray into tennis-specific summaries, I have actually been writing recaps on various topics for many years (and calling them exactly that). And whilst my MAFS (an Aussie reality TV classic) recaps were the most popular, my family and friends’ particular favourites were the “All The Ways I Avoided Death Today” recaps they received daily as I travelled around the world. 😂🤭SO, when I first used the word “recap” in the context of my Fox Boy posts, it was out of habit, and absolutely NOT imitation. I harbour no ill will towards anyone, nor have any desire to create a mountain out of a molehill. However, I also put a lot of time and effort (and lose a LOT of sleep) into ensuring every recap post’s content is unique (even when the ginger AI bot just hits CTRL-C, CTRL-V in some of his matches, and makes creativity difficult for me 😉). I also take pride in every single word I post being 100% my own. Therefore, receiving messages today which have accused me of “shamelessly copying” another person’s own creativity has been incredibly insulting and frustrating (regardless of how talent she is), and I am loath to allow that categorically false idea to fester and grow any further. I certainly do not profess to be anywhere near the accomplishment or skill of the other recap artist (if I can make someone snort-laugh, that’s the peak in my book), and am absolutely a fan of her writing myself. But I have never modeled or stolen my ideas and content from her (or any other writer), now or ever, and hopefully this will put that extremely disappointing notion to bed for her and anyone else. Anyway, I upload “serious” posts at the same frequency that Fox Boy dons non-Nike footwear, so I’ll leave it there. Back to roasting some carrots tomorrow… 🧡😊

@eeajjo Also, the growing sinnerball lexicon from your recaps and how you've built on them-and in turn how they've grown on me-has provided a sense of belonging in a way since we can call back to his allergies or geriatric walkitis and just know spot on what it means and the nuance.
