When Your Boyfriend Tsitsipas Rules on Clay

Exciting storylines continue into the clay court swing and the guys cover all the results thus far.

Aldwin's boyfriend Stefanos Tsitsipas captures his maiden Master's title in Monte Carlo. After some sweet nothings and a little massage, Tsitsi's winning ways continued until his epic three and a half hour encounter with king of clay Rafa Nadal, now 12 time Barcelona champ.

Karatsev continues his winning ways by defeating Djokovic at his home event in Serbia, the second longest ATP match of the season (behind Nadal and Tsitsipas in Barcelona). But it was Berretini who would take the Serbia title.

Barty rules the roost in the transition to clay, showing that her serve and variety can outlast the power game of Sabalenka. Aldwin also gives props to Sorana Cirstea who captured her first title in 13 years in Istanbul.

The guys kick-off the show reminiscing about the days when they could actually play tennis. With weather getting nicer and nets going up, a spike in COVID cases across the province leads to another lengthy lockdown that bans even outdoor sporting activities like tennis. 

Oh... and Benoit Paire is out of the Olympics. Surprised?
