welcome to sports talk, a blog dedicated to all my thoughts and ramblings about the sports i love!

my name is isla, i’m sixteen and am an aspiring sports journalist. i’m very passionate about football, an unfortunate tottenham hotspur fan (i love my club), both formula 1 and formula 2, i’m going through a mega motogp phase, and i love tennis.

i have a more official blog for formula 2, check it out if you’d like! (f2talk.com)

jannik sinner x long story short 🤍

[sports-talk]

gao xinyu, what a fighter👏

the poor girl was in so much discomfort from the second set, and persevered in spite of her pain and got her first top 20 win against bia haddad maia in the united cup in an epic 3 hour and 20 minute match. her 5-7, 6-4, 7-5 victory gives china a 1-0 lead over brazil.

kiss for shapo😂😘

a moment of confusion for andrey and jordan as the match was prolonged in “overtime” to decide the final winner of the group as the teams were tied 24-26. andrey was able to equal the games, and a 10 point tiebreak was played, which he then won 10-6. so despite losing their first 3 sets, falcons defeat hawks at world tennis league! mvp👏

*ೃ༄ andrey rublev on jannik sinner .ೃ࿐

how did you react when you learned at the end of august that jannik sinner had tested positive for clostebol?

"you can't wish any player to go through this. i can't imagine the stress or anxiety he felt during this entire period. he managed very well, he continued to play at his best level and managed to dominate the circuit despite everything by winning titles. it's very impressive."

anti-doping authorities have been criticized for being slow to reveal this positive test dating from march and for the lightness of the sanctions imposed. do you share these views?

"i think the anti-doping system should be a little more understandable. in tennis, the rules are super strict, more so than in other sports. i feel like every little mistake, even when it's unintentional, can threaten your career."

this is rather grim in itself, and i’m not sure why rublev’s obvious mental struggles have ever been a subject of amusement. this journalist proceeded to block anyone who criticised his ‘joke’, and state that ‘knowing andrey as he does’, he would laugh at it. this is a topic that andrey is often ashamed of and feels badly about, he is actively working on himself. i really don’t think he’d find it that funny.
