With the avalanche of people ready to spend a relaxed Easter vacation, after the terrible 2020 that had to be suffered, the rest period for students of all levels is about to begin, we just wait … no, said in a better way, we hope that you do not forget to respect what must be respected in terms of protocols, schedules and other rules already established by the health authorities.
With great appreciation we say good morning to all the readers who kindly dedicate their time to us by reading this small space for comments and information that we hope will be of interest to you. Greetings to all tennis players, fans of white sport and the general public. We are here to serve you one more weekend.
He started the first Master 1000 of the ATP Tour in Miami, unfortunately without the presence of tennis players who are icons of this sport, such as the Serbian Novak Djokovic number one in the world and who recently broke the record of more consecutive weeks occupying that place of the world ranking, the Spanish Rafael Nadal, who has just been displaced from position two in the ranking, the always admired, the Swiss Roger Federer as well as the Austrian Dominic Thiem, who we know are a magnet in the main draw when it comes to media figures it means.
Of course there were more players who for different reasons decided not to play the tournament but who are not as strong in that sense for the organizers as is the case of the Swiss Wawrinka, the French Gasquet, Simón, Monfils and Tsonga, the Italian Matteo Berrettini, as well as the Australians Kyrgios and Millman, as well as the British Andy Murray who continues to fight to return to his good times without succeeding.
What is a fact is that the table is set for that new generation of tennis players who were known to have been pushing and that sooner or later would begin to dominate the circuit, today, it is a reality or coincidence (because of what has happened worldwide ), but the seed one of this Master 1000 is the Russian Medvedev, the two is the Greek Tsitsipás, three the German Zverev, the other four Russian Andrey Rublev and placed as five in the seed is the Argentine Diego Schwartzman, to mention the top ten that will be the competitors with the best position in the ranking.
The table of the ladies is much more consistent in terms of participation, since in competition appear the number one in the world ranking, the Australian Ashleigh Barty, the number two the Japanese Naomi Osaka, the three that is the Romanian Simona Halep, the four the American Sofía Kenin, the fifth in the ranking the Ukrainian Elina Svitolina, the number six the Czech Karolina Pliskova, the seven the Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka, the eight the Canadian Bianca Andreescu, the nine that is the Czech Petra Kvitova, all of them are top ten and they will play this tournament, except the North American Serena Williams who is ranked seven and who will not be present in the competition.
Here we could make a more frank comment, due to the participation of the Mexican Renata Zarazúa who once again caused a stir for a large number of people who appear with the classic “let’s go Renata”, “let’s go Mexico”, “we are with you Renata” and many more batons you can imagine. We wonder, where were they when the tennis player was eliminated in the second round of the WTA 250 in Zapopan, Jal.?, Or Where did they go when they eliminated her in the first round of the Monterrey Open NL? The issue is that Zarazúa managed to earn her qualification for the main draw of the Master 1000 in Miami (with this she surely won the National Sports award again), to run into German Angelique Kerber, a former world number one and winner of Grand Slam tournaments, and well, the reality was overwhelming, with a double 6-0 they did not leave still and wishing that the Aztec player would advance later in the tournament, the difference between both players was abysmal, although the Argentine sports writer José Luis Clerc has kindly said that the scoreboard It did not reflect reality on the court, we wonder what it reflected?
We are pleased to greet Eduardo Lacavex, the older brother of a great dynasty of champions, who has always distinguished himself by his great claw, wisdom, mentality and attitude to face the challenges in each game, multiple champion in local, state and national tournaments. Simply a player with a great present but with a better future. Strong hug Lalo.
Our reflection for today… The bigger you are, the more humble you must show yourself.
