Watching Kyrgios v Sabalenka.
It’s so incredibly naff. Boxing-like walk on songs and outfits and breaks for Macarena dancing. Ronaldo (mark one) in the crowd and introduced as guest. Crouchy there too.
The most Dubai thing you’ll see.

Bravo to @wightlinkferry.bsky.social for not allowing my pre-booked bike onto the IOW ferry this morning because of ‘health and safety’. Apparently someone nearly had an accident carrying their bike down the stairs. And it’s low tide. Or something. Shambles.
