I follow Tiafoe on twitter. What an interesting guy. He doesn't have the size or power of other Americans like Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton.. but he plays his butt off.

I cut the cord on my cable several years ago so when work takes me out of town I always watch the Golf and Tennis channels. So last year I got to see Jessica Pegula win the Canadian Open. She has been on a roll for a while now. In doubles and mixed doubles too.
