Are we welcoming disruption?
A stomach bug hurts the optics, players get injured too much, and horrific flooding in Spain.

Welcome back! Live at the Accor Arena for the last Masters 1000 event of the year, and for the last time, it’s held at what we still call “Bercy.” A streak of 39 years for the event that will be tough to replicate elsewhere. Today’s edition is about exhibitions and stomach bugs, players' injuries (with a quick chat with H. Hurkacz, too), and heartbreaking scenes in Spain. I’ve been busy here, so I have a few other exclusives coming your way next week.
As always, thanks in advance for clicking on today’s sponsor to help this newsletter keep thriving and staying free. Cheers!
