Blame Game

 Yeah, that's right it is unbelievable that Denis Shapovalov who was on Top 10 in ATP Ranking before the pandemic and after the pandemic his rank had him at lower Top 30. The tennis players who were down below his ranks are going up so fast such as Felix Auger Aliassime, Jannik Sinner, Taylor Fritz, etc. Who should you blame for his sudden downfall in ATP ranking? 

Let me tell you maybe this might help as in many of those tennis players now in Top 10, Top 20 and Top 15 ranks are tennis players who are playing in all the matches, in all the tournaments while Shapovalov only choose to play on bigger venues or popular ATP Matches. Those tennis players are taking their occupation seriously. Tennis is not just a sport, it is not for fun or fame but it is the source of their income, wage, salary! Tennis is a job for those players! They are richer and wealthier but had chosen tennis as the source of their income. Look at Djokovic and other top tennis players when they play tennis they are dedicated, they are in focus and concentrate when they do their work. It's WORK not sports not a game. Maybe, somehow when his gf lost or lose her game/match  then it's time get out from that game and start anew. Maybe , maybe not. Just curious and being suspicious. Are you not? Shapo is only 23 years old and he is being carried out by the gf in his ambition to be the best or being a loser?  Fans thought it was the coach who was the jinx. Which one or who is to be blamed for Shapovalov's falling out of Top 10 ranks, out of Top 15, and out of Top 30? What's the problem?

Then you think about pressures and tensions. Occupation has its own hazards and injury if you are not careful. Even if you are not working there are barriers and hurdles. It's just that maybe some people are fortunately lucky, inspired or just that too sporty and what they are doing is way too easy on their part as in they are born to be the Champion.

Many Canadians though are not happy when their Canadian players lose the game. Shapovalov lose the game today against Taylor Fritz (look-alike of actor Alex Pettyfer in the movie IN TIME) who was seen always grinning from ear to ear. So it's only Felix Auger & Bianca Andreescu (she played really good today, great effort) from Canada who are left behind to play the MIAMI OPEN TENNIS Tournament to compete with those Russian players?
