Raining!

[Shell]

Wish the humidity would **** right off tho. It's so sticky and gross

Again, good idea for that third day lol. Open won't miss a beat, even if it rains all day today

Kyrgios hasn’t played a grand slam since the 2022 US Open where his career best season ended with a loss in the quarterfinals to Karen Khachanov.

The mercurial Australian has been drawn to play Great Britain’s World No. 86 Jacob Fearnley in the first round on Monday night.

A supercomputer has given Kyrgios a zero per cent chance of winning the Australian Open, with World No. 1 Jannik Sinner rated a 51.6 per cent chance of defending his title.
The Prime Casino calculations give de Minaur a 0.6 per cent chance of going all the way.

Hilarious that Nick lost to a Karen

F.kn QR codes.

The hotel I stayed at recently did QR codes for room service. The scanner/s on my phone were a piece of shit, wouldn't work. Cut a massive long story short, cue a huge misunderstanding attempting to order breakfast to the room one day which could have been avoided with a paper hard copy of the ****ing menu.

 

[Shell]

Double break all over red rover

 

[Shell]

Done. Shame the match deserved to end better/closer than that
