Tennis Today: All hail Bianca ‘f-ing’ Andreescu while Stan Wawrinka drops Trevor Noah for Kyle Edmund
In Tennis Today, Bianca “f-ing” Andreescu is the talk of the town after her Indian Wells win while Stan Wawrinka drops Trevor Noah for Kyle Emdund.
What’s on the site
Bianca Andreescu is still in “f-ing” dreamland after completing her Cinderella story at the BNP Paribas Open. Can you blame her? And yes, we will be milking the “f-ing” in Tennis Today.
Up next is the second leg of the Sunshine Double, the Miami Open, but what makes this two-legged affair such a tough nut to crack?
One person who won’t feature at the Hard Rock Stadium is Juan Martin del Potro as he continues to struggle with a knee injury.
Then we have the rankings and Andreescu naturally makes a big “f-ing” jump in the WTA Tour rankings.
It was obviously also a good week for Dominic Thiem on the ATP Tour rankings.
What’s in the news
Naturally the tennis world can’t get enough of Bianca “f-ing” Andreescu and in The Telegraph, Charlie Eccleshare says “Bianca Andreescu has the poise and game to make Indian Wells win just the start”.
What’s on social media
Isn’t she just “f-ing” lovely.
