AO is my favorite grand slam. Sad to see a Tunisian women is in quarter of final, bosnian, hungarian, greek.. having top players but iran is absent

I like Australian Open and Roland Garros most.
And I am a big Novak fan.

Female Russian/American reaches women's singles final for the first time! The other leg is between Halep (Romania) or Muguruza (Spain). https://www.news.com.au/sport/tennis...b1da4c6186bd4e

I never miss Roland Garros and Wimbledon, I don't really like the US Open. I enjoy watching the Australian Open but due to the time zone difference, I hardly see any games.

A 21-year old American triumphed in the women's singles edition: https://au.sports.yahoo.com/australi...011626134.html

Djokovic won the men's singles but had a lot of friction with the umpire: https://nypost.com/2020/02/02/novak-...an-open-final/

YES!!! My boy Djoko won!

Would love to see a Novak statue in Melbourne park. Almost half of his gs are Australian opens.

I wonder why tennis is at a so low level in Iran. I remember Mansour Behrami said he was prevented to become a high level tennisman while in Iran, and nothing was done recently to develop this sport and our futur champions.

Our david cup team struggle against Hong kong or Kuwait teams!

Next to it, we can see countries like Ivory Coast, Tunisia, Egypt, Morocco, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Bosnia, Georgia, India, Pakistan having high level tennis players

Too bad, Djoko lost the golden slam this year.

The king of doping won again! 6 months injured and covid just before the tournament, hair falling from his 25ie (even after mu kashtan,they fall again!), winning a physical battle of 5 hours 30 against a young player which is n2! Who can believe this??
