@JacobPacheco6 Jacquemot ranked #62 and playing in her native country certainly makes it a fine win indeed. Avoiding that 3rd set also a bonus.

🇨🇦Bianca Andreescu defeats 🇫🇷(3)Elsa Jacquemot 7-6(3), 7-6(5) in the first round of the WTA 125k Saint-Malo Open! Some really tough & windy conditions out there today - but Bianca pulls through. Great win. #CdnTennis #WTA

@JasonGregor The fact that this really diminishes the importance of the regular season is why this is a terrible idea. Of course if you're a fan of a CFL team that has missed the playoffs for five straight seasons, it's easy to see why you're on board with this change.

Big fan of the new CFL playoff format starting in 2027. There will be more playoff games. Top two teams in each division will play and winner moves to 3rd round. Loser plays in second round. And play in games with seeds 5 v. 8 and 6. v. 7. Winners move to 2nd round to play the losers of 1/2 matchup. Also season will start in late May and end November 7th.

@JakeGiddes @JacobPacheco6 Even if she does meet Iga next, Swiatek is not in a great head space at the moment. Ann Li leads the H2H 2-0 over Leylah. Going to be another tough one either way.

@hrabapguy @JacobPacheco6 Her second set was just as impressive. A little shaky in the first but Leylah appears to be in a great space now, both physically and mentally. Looking ahead… Swiatek just lost the first set to world no. 34(!) Ann Li. Leylah’s next opponent may not be indomitable. 🤔

FERNANDEZ COMEBACK WIN OVER JOVIC! 🇨🇦(24)Leylah Fernandez defeats 🇺🇸(15)Iva Jovic 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 to advance to the Round of 16 in Madrid! Biggest win of the season for Leylah - & possibly her best tennis of the year in that third set. #MMOpen #WTA

@JacobPacheco6 Man oh man. I was hoping what I called a good loss vs Rybakina was not an aberration, and it wasn’t! Leylah looked great. Definitely worth getting early up on Saturday (Moutain Time 🤪) to watch her as she’s regaining her mojo. Good on her!!! 👍🏾🇨🇦🎾🇨🇦👍🏼

@JacobPacheco6 Tough one versus Iva Jovic next, but it certainly appears that Leylah has regained some nice form in the last couple of weeks.

Good start in Madrid for 🇨🇦(24)Leylah Fernandez as she defeats 🇦🇹Julia Grabher 6-2, 6-3 to advance into the 3rd round. Some weird conditions today that bothered both players with the constant blowing pollin. Looked like snow😆❄️ Leylah vs 🇺🇸(15)Iva Jovic next. #MMOpen #WTA

@OilersJack I'm starting to think Connor Ingram won't get the Oilers as far as Stuart Skinner did.

Starting to think that maybe Stuart Skinner wasn’t the reason the Edmonton Oilers went to Back to Back Stanley Cup Finals.

@JacobPacheco6 Yeah, that's a baffling call, that was an incidental high stick caused by an interference penalty, common sense should still prevail at the end of the day.

This Guhle high-stick (which was called a double-minor) happened because of the Hagel interference... This officiating makes zero sense in Tampa right now - and I'm no Habs fans by any means😂 #GoHabsGo       #GoBolts

@vanshv2k That analysis could also be used for Denis Shapovalov.

Flavio Cobolli is such a high ceiling, low floor kind of player. The ceiling is a guy who’s one of the fastest, most powerful, most dynamic all-court power players with a suffocating offensive barrage that wins 500s. The low floor is the frustrating one-sided straight set losses to inferior players you see other weeks.

@JacobPacheco6 Exactly right - You could see how much Molcan wanted to win this match and that's not to suggest that Shapo didn't want to win, Molcan just wanted it more in my eyes.

🇸🇰(Q)Alex Molcan defeats 🇨🇦Denis Shapovalov 6-4, 6-4 to reach the semifinals in Munich. 38-9 unforced errors. The Slovak has had an incredible two weeks as he picks up a 4th straight top-50 win. Molcan so good on clay, was ranked outside the top-600 last year. #BMWOpen #ATP

@JacobPacheco6 This is the kind of win that could kickstart a season. Leylah gets Rybakina next which will obviously be tough, but she's playing with house money now.

GAME SET & MATCH FERNANDEZ! 🇨🇦Leylah Fernandez - down 1-5 in the 3rd set, defeats 🇹🇷Zeynep Sonmez in 3hr 8minutes, (2)6-7, 6-1, 7-6(5) to advance into the Quarter-Finals in Stuttgart! Both women had trouble serving today, Leylah's resilience does it again. #PorscheTennis #WTA

@hrabapguy Leylah has struggled as well - but I like her chances. Hopefully.

@ReporterTubb Tigers had to beat two teams tonight as that was some horribly biased officiating. Casey was outstanding especially during that extended 5-on-3. Way to go Tigers!!

@ReporterTubb What a luxury to have two really good goalies for Willie D to alternate starts, until one guy has a stinker of a game, why change what's working?

After reading all the replies to my tweets I have come to realize that I have been wrong about everything Trump is demonic and a Mad King, I should have seen it sooner. Israel has been controlling everything the whole time, I was blind. I apologize and hope that moving forward you will still consider reposting me on X and buying my coffee

@JakeGiddes @JacobPacheco6 Agreed, Jake. Two good wins over Cilic and Ruud and a solid showing versus Sinner today. Back up to #5 in the live rankings and likely back in top 8 in the race to Turin. If he can continue this play on the dirt and bank some points, it will be beneficial later in the season.

@JacobPacheco6 …in their play. This kclay season is a great opportunity for Felix to get into the no. 4 spot because he has very few points to defend over the next 4 tournaments. Felix isn’t embarrassing himself in these matches. His game has vastly improved. Here’s hoping it continues to.

I wonder how each of us would feel, logging in to this app, and seeing so many peeps having negative conversations about us. About our skills, about our looks. World class athletes see our comments, and like us, they probably take ‘em to heart. It’s not that hard to be kind. 🫶
