Final Road Trip to the USO - ATP Winston-Salem NC, WTA Cleveland OH

 

The North American Swing leading up to next week's USO flew by in a short six weeks.  Although there are few top players contending this week in either Winston-Salem or Cleveland, some higher-ranked who didn't fare well up to this point are competing this week hoping to get in some quality match play. And, there were a fair share of top players who retired or withdrew from Cincinnati likely hoping to heal by or be fresh for the USO.

Congratulations to this week's Cincinnati Masters 1000 Champions:

Men's Singles: Novak Djokovic d. Carlos Alcaraz

Doubles: Gonzalez/Molteni d, Murray/Venus

Women's Singles: Cori Gauff d .Karolina Muchova

Doubles: Townsend/Parks d. Melichar-Martinez/Perez

Let's play ball👇 

HEAT'S ON IN CINCINNATI 2023

 

As they say - there's no rest for the wicked or for the players competing in the North  American Swing. From the rain in both Toronto and Montreal, we're back-to-back this week in Cincinnati for another combined Masters and WTA 1000 event.

Congratulations to this week's champions:

Toronto Men's Champ Jannik Sinner d. Alex de Minaur; Doubles Champs Arevalo/Rojer d. Ram/Salisbury.

Montreal Women's Champ Jessica Pegula d. Liudmila Samsonova; Doubles Champs Aoyama/Shibahara d. Krawczyk/Schuurs.

So let's play ball and see some Abstract Art👇
