I am hoping for a Rafa vs Stefanos Tsitsipas final, preferably with Rafa winning in 4 sets Because 3 would be too sad for Stefanos and 5 would be too tense for me
The women's final was quick.
Iga Swiatek shared these 2 photos with the trophy earlier today: https://www.instagram.com/p/CGNHqeighdi/I have always had the utmost respect for my friend Rafa as a person and as a champion. As my greatest rival over many years, I believe we have pushed each other to become better players. Therefore, it is a true honor for me to congratulate him on his 20th Grand Slam victory. It is especially amazing that he has now won Roland Garros an incredible 13 times, which is one of the greatest achievements in sport. I also congratulate his team, because nobody can do this alone. I hope 20 is just another step on the continuing journey for both of us. Well done, Rafa. You deserve it.
Yeah, there supposed to be quarantining alone. If the mouse ends up testing positive for the virus Putinseva will have made the trip to Australia for nothing.Twitter also showed Novak Djokovic and Svetlana Kuznetsova not wearing a mask on transport bus and plane respectively, not a good look.
And poor Yulia Putintseva was stuck for hours with a mouse in her room. I would not have handled that well.

Well there was this statement from Craig Tiley in October.It has been confirmed, Yulia got a hopefully mouse free new room.
Players have the same refrain, that they were not told they would need to quarantine if a case was found on the plane. Not sure where the comms break happened.
It is brutal to not be allowed fresh air for 14 straight days or to train on a court, so I understand their dismay, but complaining IG messages often lack perspective.
One player who I haven’t seen complain is Bianca Andreescu. Her coach was one of the positives on the Abu Dhabi plane. He seems like a good guy so he must be crestfallen, but from what I’ve seen recently, I also wonder how seriously players and they entourage shieldagainst the *****.
The flight from Doha also had a positive case so 72 players are now in hard quarantine.
