Australian Heatwave

 The time difference in Australia from Canada made it hard to watch the tennis tournament and the very first tournament was not even shown on Canadian television channels. Good that when AO or Australian Open ATP Tournament finally opened or shown on TV TSN Channels (2 channels) they had the Canadian tennis players playing first ahead of those less popular tennis players. The very first day of AO they had Bianca Andreescu, Felix-Auger Aliassime and Denis Shapovalov. They won the first day, first round of the match. It was hot! The temperature was summer blistering hot for Canadian players. Did you know that over 25 Celsius degrees temperature for weather is more like an inferno hot? That kind of heatwave can cause stroke here in Canada and can spark wildfire. Then the next round the Canadian tennis players had their match again and won but why Auger has to play against Pospisil who is a Canadian player? That's strange. On the second day round for the Canadian players and their opponents suddenly the weather temperature has changed from hot to cold and windy because I think it rained and the game was postponed or canceled for later day or hours? So from hot to cold temp. that could change the situation and outcome of the game. Definitely is. Denis Shapovalov suddenly wore extra clothing, Bianca has to wear her jacket while playing tennis and noticed the audience, the fans, visitors, stayed on their seats feeling cold and good for them some of them brought their sweaters and jackets and maybe some of them have to buy all of a sudden from nearby shops. The sudden change of weather temperature's not in favor for their game in Australia. Looks like...the game is in favor and on the side of Djokovic. Hm, maybe I'm wrong.

So folks, what could it lead to for that sudden change of weather temperature? Hot & cold? It could give you headaches, colds, and less stamina if you are not ready for such drastic temperature change. 

All the Canadian tennis players were out of the AO match after the 3rd round, except Felix-Auger Aliassime. If you can play tennis for 4th to 5th set just like Andy Murray of UK and if you are fanatic fans who can stay at the podium or grandstand for 5 hours under the heat of the sun and dry yourself like a fish then stay. At least you don't need to pay for suntanning bed. By that time of 5 hours watching the sports end, sweltering sweat, you felt the tennis court looking like a blue ocean and two players bathing in their own sweat. Now people smell yourself if you stink like a beef teriyaki or salted dry fish. Opsi, just kidding.
