The champions tour took place the last three days in Delray Beach. pretty awesome sight. Those guys still got it and one of them in particular has some of the most sublime volleys you will ever see on this site. But I don't wanna give a way too much. And Tommy Haas still looks as solid as when he was top 5 in the world. Gorgeous backhand.
The week should be entertaining, assuming all players hold their commitment and show up. Opelka lives 20 minutes away in West palm Beach so he has the luxury of sleeping in his own bed this week.

Nick has come out for his second round match vs Albot in full flight way too cool for school vintage form. He has thrown away the first set. Will he tap out, engage, or just continue the match sticking with the cool mode. Such drama, and lucky ticket holders.Comment

Radu Albot wins the Delray beach Open. Pretty Impressive run. His game never came into its own until his late 20's. At 29, he is playing the most complete tennis of his life. For all the talk of prodigies and wunderkids taking the world by storm, to truly reach full potential both mentally and physically, you still need many years. Being the best at 20, 21, 22 may seem like a milestone, but it's not until you are much older that you can truly absorb and appreciate it.

Utterly fantastic too to see Daniel Evans in the final. I like his game very much. The attitude too. I really like this guy. I don't care what anybody says about him. He who is without sin cast the first stone. Hopefully the demons are in the rearview mirror. Cocaine is something you only wish on your enemy.Comment
