In case for some reason you’ve been sleeping under a rock, Vasek Pospisil made his 8 month return at Wimbledon last week! The Canadian showed flashes of his old self in both singles and doubles. We know this is only the beginning for him.

Simona Halep advanced to her first Wimbledon final after beating Elina Svitolina in the semi-finals.

I feel so bad for Robert Lindstedt… He took a serve off the head from mix doubles partner Jelena Ostapenko. What’s even worse is it happened AGAIN later on in the week.
On the next episode of When Doubles Partners Attack (Each Other)… 😂
