Jodar cursed at a ball kid in Shanghai. Then he lost the final from a set and a break up. Ball kids should be untouchable. Agree? ๐Ÿ‘‡ Full episode of Breaking Back: link in bio. #ShanghaiMasters #Tennis

How can #Zverev and #Sinner have the same number of points but AZ is #1, you ask? Zverev wins the #ATP's ranking tiebreaker. When total points are equal, the first deciding factor is combined points from Grand Slams, mandatory Masters 1000 events and the ATP Finals.

Zverev is the 2026 year-end No. 1. First German man to do it, oldest first-timer ever. And he went 0-5 against Sinner this year. Asterisk or no asterisk? ๐Ÿ‘‡ We get into it on Friday's Breaking Back. #Tennis

Medvedev hit a fan by accident and got defaulted. Atmane threw his racket at the stands and got a point penalty. Same sport, two outcomes. Fair? ๐Ÿ‘‡ #Tennis #ATP

The #USOpen just posted a record $108M prize pool. Attendance is up nearly 10% year over year. Fans are calling ticket prices "insane" and "scandalous." Both of those things are true at the same time โ€” which is exactly why nothing's changing. #Wimbledon and the French cap resale markups. The Open doesn't. Should it? #tennis #USOpen2026 #GrandSlam #tennisnews
