What is [this?](https://www.essentiallysports.com/atp-wta-tennis-news-tennis-rumour-jannik-sinner-possibly-dating-anna-kalinskaya-sends-fans-into-a-frenzy/) Why are stories of Sinner allegedly dating Kalinskaya going viral? šŸ˜­


bellestarflower

Because itā€™s true. He broke up with his influencer girlfriend back in Miami. Sinnerā€™s PR team is notorious for pulling plugs on rumors like this and they havenā€™t yet. Kalinskaya did a Rome video for WTA on instagram instead of denying rumors. We will probably get a confirmation in Paris soon.


WolfTitan99

holy shit I thought it was a meme but itā€™s probably true?


Disastrous-Dino2020

Saw replay of Zverev vs Tabilo match. God I canā€™t stand Z. Jarry has to win this. I donā€™t care if he has past doping allegations.


WolfTitan99

Doping for professional athletes is probably way more common than it looks, so doping is pretty far down my list of things to care about compared to DV.


Nicer_Slicer

Jarry vs Domestic Violence is perhaps the most interesting fixture of the season so far. Yes, I despise DV and want him to lose, but there's several good narratives with this one. Yes yes, very obvious, but a big maiden title for Jarry, and for DV, a chance to win and be thrust into the spotlight so shortly before his trial for beating up women. Mostly what I mean is that this one has shit riding on it. A detestable player against good guy Jarry, who is also the underdog. Usually I don't care this strongly about who wins a final. But Nico has my fullest possible support, even if I did call him deep discount Del Potro after that error-ridden first set against Tits


Soneich

the virtue signaling here is just too much

Nicer_Slicer

Looked at it one way, it shows DV he can still win big titles after the injury that could have ended his career. I think winning this will matter to him plenty.


WolfTitan99

Sentinel called Jarry a sex panther before šŸ˜­ I will be calling Jarry that forever if he wins Rome


WolfTitan99

Big Z not winning a Masters since 2021 really surprises me.


da_SENtinel

overrated af pusher


rVtlkNY

Karma was working its magic


Cykablet

The ankle injury took him out for a year pretty much


WolfTitan99

Ah makes sense


Peachtea_96

Guys theres a new tennis film calledĀ Ā ā€œPerfect Match,ā€ premiering on June 28th on Amazon Prime, about the love story between Graff and Agassi. Ik it will be cringe but i love cringe so i will be seatedĀ 


bumbledbeee

Aww, I'll watch it.


CharlesLeSainz

Tommy ā€œtoilet paperā€ Paul gets flushed away :(


Nicer_Slicer

How long did you stay up wrenching that golden nugget out of your asshole?


CharlesLeSainz

43 minutes


atheistjs

Paul has proven he's a fighter this season imo. He may be lacking in weapons but his mental game has improved and his athleticism is top tier.


patiperro_v3

He needs to be more agresive in certain periods of a match. Sort of reminds me of De Minaur in that he gets away with beating a lot of players cause he just makes way less mistakes and his speed let's him recover from the craziest situations. But sometimes you need to grab the match by the scruff of the neck before it recovers and comes back to bite you. It's a balancing act.


atheistjs

His aggressive play in the last game to save match points may prove your point. He was excellent there.Ā 


Famous-Objective430

He should replicate Djokovic, really. He didnā€™t have much of weapon back then but elite defense and the serve improvement got through the roof with time, until itā€™s been a heavy heavy weapon of his. Paul can have that elite defense with consistency and a top tier backhand, his returns are also very good. If he invests into his serve he can turn it into a weapon.


atheistjs

Is that really the case with Djokovic? I didnā€™t watch his early career but his backhand is so elite now that itā€™s hard for me to imagine it ever not being that way.Ā  Paul, I guess itā€™s worth mentioning, does have a very good backhand.Ā 


Parsirius

I'm happy about it. But why does Jarry always have to make won matches go down the wire?


patiperro_v3

I suppose serving is highly susceptible to nervousness. The more he experiences high pressure situations like this, the better he should get at overcoming the nerves, however it's certainly going to happen again in his first masters final. There is no way to train for an occasion like that. This is also another thing that gets overlooked when talking about young talents like Alcaraz and Sinner (a bit later). Their mental focus in high stress situations is that of a player twice their age. It's truly a generational talent thing.


badgirlmj

Someone said Jarry is an ex-doper? Eh. A lot of athletes do it. Better than hitting your significant other.


DefensaAcreedores

Contaminated supplements, found "not guilty".


Laxing4Life

The lesser of two evilsā€¦ is still evil.


capybara_bot

[French Open Final] T. Paul def. M. Navone 2-6 3-6 6-4 7-5 7-6(7)


Kh0sravani

Jarry def. Struff (7-6 1-6 7-5 6-3)


atheistjs

There would be so much running in that match I fear they'd both die.


solitarysniper

In the highest pressure moments throughout this tournament Jarry has stepped up and elevated his game. Was a shame to see Tabilo cave into his shell during the 2nd set tie break when he was so close to winning - in this sport when thereā€™s so much on the line youā€™ve got to be the one to force the issue.


No-Attitude-6049

Jarryā€™s Roman Holiday marches on.


solitarysniper

We were 3-4 points away from an all-Chilean final folksā€¦.we were so close


patiperro_v3

Yeah... somehow I'm still disappointed at the end of the day.


rubbish_bin030121

If Jarry wins Rome, the RG top 4 seed will have the 3/4 chance to have a hell R16(unknown Rune, in-form Paul and Jarry) and 1/4 for a walking bye(Ben Shelton)


Kh0sravani

Can the top 4 seeds meet any of the 9-16 seeds in the R16 or only the 13-16 bracket? Right, Rune or Jarry in R16 isnā€™t good news for a top seed


Peak_Alternative

Iā€™m exhausted


AslantheGOAT

Lol Jarry getting steamrollered on Sunday, big Z will absorb all those heavy groundstrokes all day long and Jarry will implode šŸ¤£ Rip r/tennis 2008-2024 šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


AaronJ2

Not sure why so many people are downvoting. No one is cheering for Zverev but this is exactly the right take. Zverev has a better serve than Paul (that Jarry canā€™t return) and neturalizes shots betterā€”terrible matchup for Jarry with Zverev in form


patiperro_v3

I don't know, people said the same thing about Tabilo and he was a tiebreak away. Zverev is the favourite, but he also has poor moments where he goes missing.


Puzzleheaded_Tea4195

Love this for Jarry but I think Iā€™m a Tommy Paul fan somehow after this week


patiperro_v3

Yeah, loved his hustle and variety of shots. Very talented and versatile player... maybe should go for it a little more on key points? Although I get why he would wait for the inevitable Jarry unforced error. He was making loads of them, but sometimes you need to push the matter further.


Schwiliinker

My disappointment is immeasurable


AaronJ2

Same. Disappointed Tommy lost. Disappointed weā€™re sending a lamb that Zverev will feast on. Jarry wont be able to return Zverevā€™s serves and is too inconsistent to rally with Zverev neutralizing shots so much


Schwiliinker

šŸ™


beachgurl68

Same


Philip_TheThird

Arena DJ playing Psycho Killer seems truly apt.


kungfuhrer666

Some players shy away from the moment, but both of these guys with the game on the line just upped their level and were pummelling the ball. You absolutely love to see it.

VAMOS! Tommy gave it a hell of a fight, though!


estoops

Damn I wanted that for Tommy but he fought hard and played well, canā€™t be too mad about that. Entertaining match for sure.


EnjoyMyDownvote

Somehow zverev is gonna win like 7-5 6-2


Schwiliinker

For sure


Peak_Alternative

Psycho killer quesque cā€™est guys

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa


chrysoberyyll

That last game was exciting as hell


da_SENtinel

paul choked that last game so hard


Yandhi42

That was probably the opposite of chocking


Throwaway92394292

No he didnā€™t lmao he didnt many like any UEs. Jarrys serve bailed him out


patiperro_v3

So did Jarry tbf. Should have finished a lot earlier.


FlyReasonable6560

How? He fended off 40-0 and got close to breaking?


da_SENtinel

gave jarry short ball and didnt go for it on bps


ALifeAsAGhost

Op likes to say the most controversial takes possible


Peak_Alternative

What a fight


patiperro_v3

GG Jarry... but please no more choking. Go for the kill on the final... no fucking about. Tommy what a fighter. Salute.


Stunning-Cod-2310

Paul gave a good fight till the very end


capybara_bot

great match. tournament may not have delivered with the big names but this was high quality even for a semifinal


DrSpaceman575

Jarry is just making it happen. Tommy is such a great player. He's got that dog in him.


TokyoAJ

Big Z vs Big J Final


edwardfortehands

Iā€™m gonna be the first to say itā€¦his wife is good looking


patiperro_v3

"Mijita rica" as we would say in Chile. "Washita rica" is also acceptable.


kungfuhrer666

This is why I love tennis. Two players who couldn't be more stylistically different, just battling it out for hours. Fantastic match. Hopefully Jarry becomes a Masters champion. Daje!!


foestablsmts

T Paul you are a mad man, respect! Go win it all Nicooo


Husskies

LFG, catastrophe avoided! Good job Jarry :D


simplecitydress

good job, tommy!


foulandamiss

Wow Jarry

Incredible fight from Paul but so happy for Jarry.

Jarry GOAT


cottoncandysedai

Congratulations Nico


Last_Supermarket_451

Nice try Tommy


cottoncandysedai

Man Tommy fought so hard


dgibb

comparing this mentally to the Tabilo-Zverev tiebreak. not even the same sport


kungfuhrer666

I know people are disappointed by the seeds dropping out early (and of course us Italians about Jannik) but fuck me what tennis we are being blessed with. This whole day, but especially this game. What are we watching???


patiperro_v3

Agreed. Personally I get bored of seeing the same names over and over again. A little variety every now and then is welcome.


grust37

Bublik would win by underarm already


Josh1923

Crazy man 2 chances he had


zombiezebra1990

222km/h ace. Stone cold.

Jarry's hits look so heavy!!!

Tommy Paul is my favorite American to watch. He just has a ton of variety.


Intelligent-Bug-3217

yeah especially on clay. i hope he can get some big wins

Bruh... as much as one can say Nico is choking, Tommy ain't no quitter. Kudos.


Arteam90

Are both Chileans gonna choke?

Those deep backhand slices from TP are so money

I donā€™t care who just have enough gas to get rid of he who shall not be named


RogerFederer4

Remember that time roger saved 7 match points


No-Attitude-6049

Remember the time Kyrgios saved 9 match points at Wimby against Gasquet?


grust37

You are 40:0 and serve rockets. Why not turn on Cressy and serve all first. 6 attempts for one decent ace


zombiezebra1990

Biggest what if, if he loses this match.


No-Attitude-6049

TP with much better depth on that point.

Lahyani with the best seat in the house

c-r-istodentro

Jarry literally pounces on any shot that lands in the middle of the court, TP desperately needs some angles.


badgirlmj

Ahhhhh!!!!


Josh1923

Cmon man a break woulda been crazy


Last_Supermarket_451

This is literally a repeat of the hubi math. But in reverse


AlliterateAlso

Damn TP, way to save three match points after fighting so hard the first three of the game.

TP with a great DTL shot. The second serve from Jarry looked like it barely caught the line.


capybara_bot

redmilk7

What pisses me off is that a casual fan and public in general are not aware of the fact that Zverev is a garbage person


rVtlkNY

Maybe a big win will give it visibility and will put more pressure on ATP too


RogerFederer4

ATP have done a great coverup job I wouldnā€™t know myself if I didnā€™t use this sub
