Three minutes a day to know about tennis in the world. Hello fans and friends, today is Friday, February 4, 2022. Tune in to the news afternoon report provided by Tennis House.
Last night, Beijing time, the world's first Djokovic received a cordial reception from President Vucic at the Serbian presidential palace. Vucic expressed his gratitude to Djokovic for his glorious and courageous representation of Serbia around the world. Djokovic thanked President Vucic for his strong support in his Australian visa incident. Thanks to my family, friends, and all the Serbian people, as well as fans around the world, for their support. Djokovic also said he would issue a statement over the next 7-10 days detailing what happened to him in Australia.
For this statement of the world's first, many fans are both curious and worried. Curious, would he say something different from the media coverage? The worry is that once the words are not up to the mark or are misinterpreted, they will make a storm all over the city and fall into the whirlpool of public opinion again. How will it evolve in a week' time? Let's wait!
Beijing time last night, the Laver Cup tennis exhibition match officially announced that the Swiss king Federer and the Spanish god of war Nadal have confirmed this year's Laver Cup, and the two will reunite to represent the European team.
For this good news, the fans are naturally happy. However, there are still seven and a half months to go before the start of the Laver Cup, and it is unclear what will happen during this period. Recently, foreign media reported that Federer is still unable to carry out training such as running, jumping and emergency stop and turn, and it is possible to return to the training ground as soon as April and May, and when to return is still unknown.
Let's focus on Tim again. Beijing time last night, following the withdrawal from this week's Argentina Cordoba station, Austrian star Tim once again issued a statement, announcing that due to the lack of significant improvement in the pain of the right hand finger joint, he decided to withdraw from the three races scheduled to compete in Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro and Santiago, and planned to return to the field at the ATP1000 Indian Wells Masters in late March.
Since taking an injury off last season, Thiem has announced his comeback several times and retired several times at the last minute. Injuries have become the biggest obstacle to austria's return to the field. I hope he will recover completely and soon!
Let's turn our eyes back to the field. Last night, Beijing time, at the ATP250 Cordoba station continued to play the second round of singles. Spain veteran Ramos received a retirement salute from his opponent while leading in one set to advance to the quarterfinals. Italian Sonnego lost a set 4-6 and won two consecutive sets 7-6, 6-2 to reverse Espanyol Baena and take a place in the quarterfinals.

ATP250 Puna station, the remaining four top eight seats are also all produced. Swedish qualifier E-Imel defeated the tournament's top seed, Russian Karatsev, 6-2, 7-6 (3) to advance to the quarter-finals. Finn Rusuwari, Czech Viselli and Italian Travaglia also defeated their opponents to lock in the quarterfinals.
Finally, let's guess and recognize. The picture below is a photo of a player's life. Without prompting, can you recognize who she is?
