Australian Open 2022 grandslam In Melbourne

Rating: 5.0


Australian Open 2022
Grandslam In Melbourne

tennis is my favourite sport
such as sailing or sunbathing on board

but the hard court is then the sea
oh help me, please help me
I can't play tennis at sea

there is now a Grand Slam tournament
in the far Down Under
it's summer there
without hail or thunder,

What city is this Grand Slam in, my dear?
In Melbourne, not so near

last night I saw Tsitsipas play

he won in straight sets 6-3,6-4, and 6-2 his way,
against Sirin from the Italian bay

After the quarter-finals, he advances to the semi-finals,
here he has to face powerful Medvedev

on Saturday afternoon
the final of the women's singles can be seen,
and on Sunday
we can watch the men's singles final,

but first I enjoy the strong playing ladies
Barty versus Keys,
this is going to be really exciting

tennis is my favourite sport
such as sailing or sunbathing on board,
and some fresh rain in hot Melbourne Park,
I don't really mind that bit freshy wind

Recently.........I ended the Poet's Note with RECENTLY, not really, I think few years ago. The women were unsatisfied, it started in Rolnd Garos, France and after that all moneyprizes are drawn equally.
