MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

After missing Monte Carlo to take care of some niggles after the Sunshine Swing, Carlos Alcaraz s back in action at the Barcelona tournament.

And, if you like your Spanish tennis players a little more … seasoned, you won’t get Rafael Nadal.

But you will get wild cards Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez.

(Barcelona, Munich and Banja Luka are six hours ahead of EDT).
