This week, we dive into Tomas Machac's unexpected rise as he claims his first career title in Acapulco, all amidst a week of food poisoning drama and top seeds dropping like flies. We also break down Stefanos Tsitsipas’ dominant win in Dubai, explore the racquet switch that might be working wonders, and debate if this new version of Tsitsipas is here to stay.
