Welcome to TennisPAL Chronicles the podcast to feed your passion for all things tennis!

Novak Djokovic was hampered in his play today against Taylor Fritz but was still able to gut out the win.  He says it’s a torn muscle. People are saying if it really is, 99% chance he’s done in the tournament.

Slated to face @ashbarty in the semifinals of the Yarra Valley Classic after defeating Danielle Collins, @serenawilliams.  withdrew with a right shoulder injury.  She has looked in good form so far at the Australian Open and if she is injury she is doing a great job of hiding it.  

Rafael Nadal says his back injury is ‘not under control’ despite pushing his way into the 3rd round of the Australian Open.  He has described his pain at every one of his press conferences.  Rafael Nadal cruises past Laslo Djere despite back injury with a very fan in the crowd giving him the middle finger and yelling at him to go faster on his serve.  Got to love the look of the lady holding the Spanish flag behind her.   Is that Jard Leto in disguise?
