NCAA just ruled a women's player was eligible. Hopefully we get the same result for Pinnington. Side note, it's pretty incredible that an 18yo in the top 100 would opt for even 1 year of college.

I can see it more easily on the men's side. The women peak at an earlier age though. #1 Swiatek already has 3 slams at 21. Coco Gauff is 18. But she probably knows best. It's great exposure for the college game.maybe a break from the grind and trying to have a bit of normalcy in their life, we see it more and more in college baseball players who opted for that life over riding buses and bad food so why not in tennis
Frogs win!The Frogs have a very interesting match today in Chapel Hill. UNC looks like they're much improved over a year ago, when they were extremely ordinary. They added Princeton's #1 & 3 singles players as grad transfers, and they've both been solid. They also have a freshman playing #3 who has yet to drop a set. Their only loss was a 4-3 decision at #8 South Carolina. UNC was up 3-2 with 2 matches heading to 3rd sets and couldn't take either on
Was a nail-biter. Looked like we'd cruise after the first sets, but things went sideways in a hurry before the first sets ended. Still a quality Dub.Frogs win!
Yeah I was only able to follow on stattracker. After about 20 minutes of singles play Fearnley and Jong were each up a set. Would not have imagined both of them losing. So far, it seems like we have 2 very consistent singles points in Fomba (#3) and Gorzny (#6). It's on the other guys to scratch out a win or two elsewhere.Was a nail-biter.

@#2 Oh State d. #23 TX A&M 7-0 -- Buckeyes tend to steamroll people early in the year at home, and this was no different. Just 1 singles match went to 3 sets. Buckeyes have home matches vs UT and Baylor and road matches vs UVA and Wake prior to indoors. My guess is they win them all and look like a juggernaut heading into Chicago.
Why do you ask questions you do know the answer to?I have a question I don’t know the answer to:
Why are some teams/players better indoors than outdoors and vice versa?
Boredom. And to test people.Why do you ask questions you do know the answer to?
My kids do that all the time. Few things piss me off more.Boredom. And to test people.
Did he drop a set today?They also have a freshman playing #3 who has yet to drop a set.
Fomba beat him in straights and Gorzny/Vives handed him his first doubles loss of the seasonDid he drop a set today?
My wife does tell me I’m a child frequently.My kids do that all the time. Few things piss me off more.
