so today in the tennis world we had:

madison keys beating karolina muchova 7-5 in the third set after saving match points at 4-5

alex de minaur beating frances tiafoe in three sets in a match that somehow ended up in the day session???

andrey rublev and alejandro davidovich fokina playing two tiebreaks after which adf promptly retired

iga swiatek losing to clara tauson, who is known for making matches competitive with top players but never closing them out

taylor fritz and jiri lehecka playing a triple tiebreak match at 1 am

and ben shelton and flavio cobolli having a two and a half minute shouting match after their tennis match

august 3rd 2025 you will go down in tennis history

flavio saying 'it's one match i don't care' when ben cared sooooooo much about that one match oh it is a little serious isn't it

[tennis-shenanigans]

the way ben started the fight and then had the audacity tried to dismiss flavio when he was defending himself. I am going to be insane about this forever

[tennis-shenanigans]

why doesn’t tennis have a post-match cooldown room where the players watch their match highlights together it would be sooo awkward and awesome

[tennis-shenanigans]

if i had to explain myself in my second language in order to stop someone from decking me i would’ve startef crying

BENFLAVIO PUBLIC BREAKUP????

[tennis-shenanigans]

exactly how I expected them all to react.

[tennis-shenanigans]

All those times that they tried to create a rivals narrative around Matteo and Jannik because matteo was great first and then jannik surpassed him in such enormous ways… and matteo could have been bitter and instead he always responded to that with the most love filled awe struck answers about jannik he could think of… yeah matteo is the best person alive actually his heart is so golden no other dynamic can compare

[tennis-shenanigans]

thinking about jannik not celebrating excessively for his australian open win this year (no drinking, going back to the hotel) vs when he won wimby and finally beat carlos and he showed up to the fancy celebration thing already three sheets to the wind and then spent the next two days drunk @ing carlos on instagram. sublime stuff there

[tennis-shenanigans]

Jannik is truly the king of dgaf and I love that for him. Sometimes I think idgaf and then I remember he’s the gold standard

[tennis-shenanigans]

GENTLY PLACING HIM IN MY POCKET <3

Jannik Sinner was really one single point away from winning four grand slams in a row and completing the career grand slam. At 23 years old.
