A Top 9 portrait? An unintentional fashion faux pas? If you thought getting players into matching suits and snapping a photo was always a piece of cake, then you don't know tennis.

In their debut exchange about tennis topics, David Kane and Stephanie Livaudais tackle the recent discourse surrounding the Mutua Madrid Open’s decision not to award a wild card to veteran Fernando Verdasco.

After only one main-draw wild card went to a Spanish player, many took to social media to express "surprise and frustration" toward their country's biggest tournament.

The former world No. 7 has been struggling with injuries, including two that required surgery and caused him to fall outside the Top 200 in the ATP rankings.

As a highly intriguing and already unprecedented tennis year gets underway, our team weighs in on three diverse topics.

The 36-year-old Spaniard was withdrawn from the event upon testing positive for coronavirus, which he claimed was caused by a prior infection.

The tournament now consider a player or team member's medical history before deciding to withdraw them from the tournament if they have tested positive for coronavirus.

The Spaniard tested positive upon arriving in Paris on Tuesday; he says he's tested negative three times since. "I want to my communicate my total frustration and outrage with the organization of Roland Garros," Verdasco wrote in a statement.

Fans can watch drills and more from Eugenie Bouchard, Belinda Bencic and other top names.
