  • RG 2026: Lehecka out!

    Hello!

    Another good player out of Roland Garros 2026:
    the old dude Carreno Busta defeated Jiri Lehecka.

    I did not see the match, but I certainly expected
    Lehecka to win it and perhaps advance quite far
    in the tournament.

    Casper Ruud was taken into five sets, but survived.

    I don't know who this Lehecka is but Carreno can busta almost anybody on
    clay. At least could when I last saw him play years ago.

    In general, it seems like anybody ranked between 3 and 2000 can beat
    anybody with similar ranking these days.

    Wise men say this spells a highly competitive era, I say "no, no, no".

    Lol. Lehecka apparently really hates the clay, 7-5 this year.
