They Are Young Boys, Aren't They?

1. kicked off the warmup with some giggling and a hand up in apology although i'm not sure at WHAT exactly maybe he broke another chair lol

2. went down 40-30 first service game and my comms started waxing lyrical about mochizuki which was Really Scary but then he saved the game with a nice inside out forehand

3. earned himself three break points and converted on the third!! and then comms started dooming about mochizuki which like can we please calm down a little

4. just existed actually, leading my comms to start rpfing sincaraz please focus #commsupdates

5. double faulted as mandated by the contract he signed while buying his new serve

6. intermission 1 - mochizuki has converted the tennis lb tag. we love and welcome him and lament that evil janniksin powers must be used against him. he has much whimsy.

7. was a little bewildered and hit some wonky forehands still work to be done but OPTIMISM OKAY

8. BROKE AGAIN TO TAKE THE SET and comms started glazing satannik and his merciless crushing of opponents (#anti jinx) #commsupdates

9. lobbed lobbed lobbed (so far they have all been long)

10. took us to deuce first service game of the second set as per usual but managed to save it!

11. hit a very embarrassing forehand straight into the net. actually we don't talk about that game.

12. pissed himself AND mochizuki off at the same time and looked up to see simone standing in the box with a very pained expression on his face

13. intermission 2 - i know that this matchup is just very different but that forehand...

14. won a rally the very next point with three really good forehands so what do i know really

15. got annoyed and intrigued at the same time and it was very funny to see

16. forgot how to return 2.0 #myclown also forgot how to hit forehands backhands return in general etc

17. slipped, managed to hit the ball, won the point, but it was a Bizarre sight

18. got really, really, really pissed because he got stuck in deuce hell trying to break, wanted to throw his racket sooo bad.

19. intermission 3 - one of my comms wants to be the first to sign up to mochizuki fanclub @ tennisblr pls note #commsupdates. also they're closing the roof.

20. received cheating, favouritism allegations yet again! for standard procedure! just another day of being Evil Jannik Sinner! im all for satannik but put some respect on his name he didn't even come out today

21. double faulted again! followed it up with three reasonably good points tho

22. intermission 4 - WHERE IS THAT FUCKING RETURN

23. fs bullied simone before the match to be team sinner's sacrifice for the day. the man was Scarred.

24. TOOK THE TIEBREAK 7-0, caused darren who was happily munching on something again to join simone in his personal hell

25. BROKE EARLY THIRD SET #MYGOAT

26. obligatory double faulted #issok we persist

27. brought SOME of the return back the rest is flying somewhere over london #insidejokewithmyself

28. went down 0-40 on his serve then fought back to deuce then SCREAMED to ad then played some beautiful shots to hold MY GOAT IS NOT WASHED

29. brought a little more of the return back and slapped it he's so hot my god soooo hot

30. SLIPPED AND FELL AGAIN. ONE LIMB, THEN THE NEXT, THEN THE REST. everyone's hearts in their asses he hates us

31. intermission 564 - comms say forehand stats are improving. angles are getting better fs. ripping backhands as i speak. #optimism
