Demon basically slow-killed Borges in that game.

Del @stroppadel.bsky.social · 1d

When the commentator adds "the Portuguese Nr 1" when they talk about Borges, I always have to think, but who is nr 2 (and 3...)? There is no other Portuguese in the top 100 right now.
(had to look it up: Faria: nr 118, Rocha: 163).

Aww.

Yes, the time has arrived now for me... there are still fing R4 matches to be played in Shanghai?! Another unbearably long tournament.

Vacherot vs top 50

Del @stroppadel.bsky.social · 1d

Two 26-year-old maiden Masters 1000 QFs in Shanghai - after Zizou, now Vacherot, too, beating Griekspoor in 3 sets, who was furious. He will meet Rune in the QF.

Huge moment in Vacherot's career next.

Looks like Seba Baez and Comesana are spending some time at RNA with their coach Sebastian Gutierrez.

The Tre Valli Varesine 2025 podium - Pogi, Albert Philipsen, and Alaphilippe (good to see him looking fine, he was really dead after the world champs in Kigali).
Pogi and co. will be back for the final big classic of the year, Il Lombardia, this Saturday, 10:30 AM CEST.

We were in Varese. #TreValliVaresine

The top 10, look at Philipsen, not Jasper but young Dane, Albert. #TreValliVaresine

Del @stroppadel.bsky.social · 1d

Knowing his mentality, I can believe he is truly happy. even if this was just a little practice race for him. #TreValliVaresine

Pogi Pogi-ed. Not much else to say. #TreValliVaresine

Pogi will get so bored of having no competition that he will retire from cycling soon... #TreValliVaresine

Well, Pogi attacked, and Pogi is in the lead. #TreValliVaresine

UCI Pro Series 1-day race Tre Valli Varesine today in Italy. Pogi is here, surprisingly, but he promised last year he'd come back as last year the race had to be stopped due to bad weather. Nice autumn day today luckily. #TreValliVaresine

What a release of energy at the very end from Zizou. I don't know how he's done it all week in the brutal humid conditions of Shanghai.

Del @stroppadel.bsky.social · 2d

Zizou: "I'm 26 today, but I feel I just got here."

Del @stroppadel.bsky.social · 2d

101 vs 100 points. It was close.
