The US Open YouTube channel was on point this year. Highlights, on-court interviews, and press conferences uploaded the day of, and extended highlights and full matches uploaded soon after. The other slams should take some notes.
The Australian Open is the only other slam with a good YouTube channel.
 
I think if you read back through the 328 pages of this thread, you wouldn’t be able to find a more pro-Halep voice than mine, but she’s done, likely in her career, but certainly in terms of her reputation. It’s disappointing, seeing as I’ve always respected her work ethic, but once you dig into the report, there’s very little to be said in her favor. Also, Patrick Mouratoglou should be blacklisted by every media organization, never heard from again.

It puts into stark contrast meldonium, which was like Russian Advil!

Mouratoglou will be fine I think.

yeah, I read a summary on Twitter and it's very damning that the panel ruled against her even after accepting that her supplement was contaminated, because the levels of roxadustat present in her urine were so high.
 
Waking up to a Zverev loss is always a beautiful start to the day!

In other news, I never thought Wim was the right coach for Naomi, and I’m surprised she’s going back to him.
 
It was only three months ago she was talking about coming back to complete the career Slam.

I wonder if turning 30 last week is making her think differently? Obviously we're all used to the anything-can-happen world of the WTA, but putting aside the outlier of Serena's ten (ten!) victories, only three women have won a slam post-30 in the last three decades. And two of them packed it all in a matter of months later.
