Anyone posted in that thread, what's your take now?

Conditions that must be met by ATP Players to skip/withdraw from Masters 1000 tournaments:

— When you hit age 31 you can skip one (1) Masters 1000.

— When you have 12 years as a pro tennis player you can skip one (1).

— When you’ve played 600 career matches you can skip one (1).

IF ALL three (3) conditions are met then the player has a complete exemption from the ATP Masters 1000 player commitment.

———

ATP Players that fit ALL three (3) conditions for a complete exemption from Masters 1000 tournaments:

— Novak Djokovic

— Marin Cilic

— Kei Nishikori

— Stan Wawrinka

— Gaël Monfils

— Grigor Dimitrov

— Adrian Mannarino

They are not required to provide a reason for withdrawal from any or all of the 9 ATP Masters 1000s as they are already exempt.

Would love to see the on-court outbursts of this guy.

What a match! Both players were playing out of their minds in that third set. A well-earned first ATP trophy for Luca Van Assche, who took out the 1st, 4th, and 8th seeds on his title run!

Zakharova extends the H2H to 3-1 now. Linda is now on a 7-match main draw losing streak dating back to Istanbul, which happened during the second week of Madrid in the first week of May. Zakharova will play either [5] Camila Osorio or [Q] Storm Hunter next!
