The commentator also reacts to the first of what appears to be many tournament wins for Brazilian sensation Joao Fonseca, and explains why expectations should be tempered in the short-term. And Petkovic weighs in on the news that Jannik Sinner has agreed to a three-month suspension, hopefully ending the long and drawn-out drama surrounding last year's positive drug test.
