Hopefully Kokk can be ok for the doubles, but dunno if that will be a possibility

Yeah shade is vital. Anything like 24 sunny+ you are sweating in your seat, it's just gross. I used to take a change of clothes and a small towel when I went.

When I was  much younger I used to sit in the sun on RLA and on the outside courts even if it was 40 degrees. I was an idiot! I don't know how I coped. Never again! I always buy tickets in the shade now. Can't handle the sun and heat anymore.

I know we never went 40, but for sure mid-30s, as well to the cricket ODIs. I dunno how I even did that, but I do remember being an absolute freak over sunscreen. Would reapply it every hour, on the hour.

Good!! Love a bit of US Open type of spectators getting into em. Especially on that court.

Looks like we'll still get to see him in doubles, which is good:

Kyrgios confirmed he will play doubles with fellow Aussie Thanasi Kokkinakis.

The pair, dubbed the “Special Ks”, won the Australian Open men’s doubles title in 2022.

“I think we owe it to each other to go out there and play,” Kyrgios said.

Kokk said something like "my arms will literally have to be falling out of their sockets to withdraw from the doubles". So yeah. Looks like it's going ahead. I hope they do well
