Great scoop about Rolex, and the angle of Switzerland and tariffs is certainly a plausible one! Good luck this weekend.

It’s beyond loathsome from Rolex. Their desperation for a break on tariffs (which they probably won’t even get since Trump can’t be trusted on anything) means the entire tennis world on Sunday has to suffer with that pile of garbage present. If any wealthy customers of Rolex have ANY conscience (doubtful) they’ll buy from some other overpriced luxury watch brand.

Sadly I don't think he will be booed as much this time

I wouldn't be surprised if anyone who dares is briskly whisked out of the stadium...

Such a great scoop, Ben. I’m disgusted with Rolex and so upset at this would-be authoritarian nightmare attending on Sunday that I likely won’t watch. The worst part will be if the wealthy crowd doesn’t do the bare minimum in booing him and if Jannik and Carlos are forced to meet him. What an awful, awful thing for Rolex to do. Loathsome brand

Great get, Ben.

The reception Trump receives

will be interesting. Guaranteed media here in Australia won’t ignore it!

The crowd at the US Open is so wealthy I’m worried they won’t do their one job as New Yorkers and boo him. He has declared war on US cities in blue states so booing him is the least they could manage….

Any insight into what Sinner's physical issues were, didn't look himself at all. Sick again?
