A smattering of tweets from week on the US Open.
1. Girls acing boys. Now that’s something we can get behind. Nice shot Belinda Bencic, and nice reaction.
2. Don’t be nervous Simona, you’re pretty awesome at tennis, too.
3. King Henrik Lundqvist and the GOAT. Hockey fans surely love this snap.
4. When you’re up all night playing FIFA on Playstation, you have to get sleep any way you can!
5. Umpires everywhere are dreaming for the proper retort to Vika’s condescension. How about: “Yeah, I do play tennis, and I don’t make funny yodeling sounds when I do.” In all seriousness, this was good clean fun from Vika. Kind of mean, but more important, very funny!
6. So nice to see that Genie has found a kindred spirit in Jimmy Connors.
7. Coldplay! We’re talking about Coldplay! Man!
8. Only Nole. Only Nole.
9. Seriously, look how far Roger gets in on this play. He’s so fast and explosive these days, like a SABR-toothed tiger. Get it?
10. It hasn’t been easy, but we’re trying.
11. (Because this one goes to 11) Bouchard, up the left wing with a head of steam, cutting into the middle, dangling, she shoots, SHE SCORES!
12. (Because this one goes to 12) Okay, Serena says show’s over. That’s all, folks. See you next time.
