It was different as Amanda Anisimova defeats Iga Swiatek in straight sets 6-4, 6-3. I didn't expect to be in straight sets.
She sets her revenge.
For the second straight year, Iga Swiatek loses at the quarter final against an American.

And that is what has happened. Auger-Aliassime defeats De Minaur 4-6, 7-6, 7-5, 7-6 in 4 sets to reach the last 4.
A 4 hour plus match. Both players weren't at their best, but FAA won the bigger points.

I was thinking it's gonna be a 5 set match between Auger-Aliassime and De Minaur but the way this match is going as it's been up and down, Auger-Aliassime still could wrap up the match in this 4th set.

It was a very short speech by Naomi Osaka after her loss against Victoria Mboko.
Understandably, she's upset she lost but it's interesting as her speech could come across as condescending.
She is usually gracious in defeat.

Victoria Mboko defeats Naomi Osaka 2-6, 6-4, 6-1 to win the Montreal Open.
Naomi Osaka who was playing her best tennis this tournament disappeared after winning the first set.
It wasn't a great final but Mboko defeated grand slam champions on her way to win the title. Well played.

What a set.
Sabalenka was 4-1 up and was serving for the set at 5-4 and 6-5 but Coco Gauff came back.
She was 5-3 down in the tie break but she came to win 7-5 in the tie break and the set 7-5.
Coco Gauff needed to win the first set more than Sabalenka.

It's 5-5 in the H2H but I have a feeling that Coco Gauff will get the victory over Aryna Sabalenka.
Getting in 3 consecutive clay court finals, Madrid, Rome & now #RolandGarros is great and hopefully it's third time lucky for Gauff as she lost the last two.
It will be a 3 sets match.

Bayley is back at Raw unsurprisingly.
But her being back means 3 things:
1. Bayley reunites with Damage Ctrl.
2. Bayley and Iyo Sky faces each again potentially.
3. Bayley in the future turns heel as tbh she is better being a heel rather than being a babyface.

2026 Royal Rumble confirmed to be held at Saudi Arabia.
Obviously, money talks so great for WWE as Saudi has the cash, but the crowds in Saudi Arabia when sports events are being held are dead. So it's disappointing news.

2024 has been a difficult year, but despite the circumstances, I've continued to have the perseverance, managed to complete a data analytics course and found a way to bless me financially. Glory to him.
As 2025 has commenced, I pray for peace and that my circumstances will change for the better.

Just finished #SquidGame2. It is predictable at times, so it doesn't have the thrills like in season 1 but it's still a decent watch.
However, the ending was trash. Probably, they want to do a cliffhanger for the final season, but it does leave more questions than answers.

David Moyes receiving OBE is worthy.
Gareth Southgate who guided England back to back Euro finals, which is good but didn't win a trophy somehow gets a knighthood and becomes a Sir.
This country loves to reward failure as I don't know how this should be recognised as an achievement. Crazy.

January is around the corner in where Trent Alexander Arnold can speak to other clubs as his contract runs down.
I have a feeling that he will leave Liverpool and join Real Madrid in the summer.
They will secretly push for this, particularly Dani Carvajal, who is out for the season with injury.

After today, no more Premier League football coverage on Amazon Prime for a number of years. 🙁
Gonna miss the coverage, just like how I miss the tennis as the coverage is elite.

Looks like Marcus Rashford is on his out. I don't have a problem with him leaving as his performances for the last 18 months have been average & I've questioned his desire.
But I do feel the club possibly could have handled it better as at times I feel he's an easy target.

Time will tell in the new year if things change but when Manchester City lost 4 games in the row I mentioned that in the football whatsapp group as it was doesn't happen often and it wasn't well received.
Today, they lost to Juventus, and they have only won 1 out of 10 games in all competitions.
