nooo rafa lostttt!! 😭😭 zverev you have a target on your back, not just for beating rafa at roland garros, but also for assault charges

ughhh he was legit playing so well, but got extremely unlucky with draw. his groundstrokes were good, but zverev didn't make many mistakes, unfortunately

also gasquet winning was not on my bingo card lmao, and the way he celebrated when he won was like he won the whole tournament lmfao

Cassis Ch F: Richard Gasquet [3] def. Jurij Rodionov 3-6, 6-1, 6-2 Match Stats

📸 ATP official website

J. Rodionov might have taken the first set as it was the source behind his 100% break point conversion rate, but it was insufficient as soon as R. Gasquet further dialed in since the second set. Through his cleaner strikes, he ended up bringing the former off-balance, especially with some vintage winners inflicting more damages from the baseline, leaving J. Rodionov a little to no option to move forward as it previously was. This way, R. Gasquet created 7 break points, converting 71% of them throughout all three sets.

Besides, except the first set, R. Gasquet also appeared more solid on serve. Scoring 6 aces than J. Rodionov's 5, the Frenchman had an outstanding first serve winning percentage with 71%, which helped him to get out of trouble in some occasions. However, this left the Austrian's second serves more vulnerable since he only won 52% of his second serve points compared to R. Gasquet's 57%, thus making it more attack-prone at worst.

As a result, R. Gasquet became the third oldest person to win a Challenger title after Ivo Karlovic and Fernando Verdasco. Grinding it out until the body called it quit would make it even more legendary for R. Gasquet, regardless of when or where he would end his playing career at. On the other hand, J. Rodionov joins the Austrian Davis Cup team on the World Group I tie against Turkey, which will be a home tie in Bad Waltersdorf for the rest of the week. That could be another exciting one at their best.

Sword Catcher: Worldbuilding

Who rules Castellane?

Castellane is a city-state — it has its own government and royal family. Part of my inspiration for Sword Catcher was Venice during the Silk Road era, and families like the famous Borgias and Medicis. Castellane’s government consists of a royal family and a Council of Twelve — twelve families, each of whom holds a charter that gives them ownership over a certain kind of good that is traded through the continent of Dannemore. These are the Charter Families; they are the richest in Castellane, and Charters are passed down through families, like an inheritance — though the ruling family, the Aurelians, has the power to grant charters and also to take them away.

The Charter Families

The Uzecs have quite a bit of sway as the holders of the Wine Charter.

A popular man is Mathieu Gremont, who holds the Coffee and Tea Charter.

Fabulous Lupin Montfaucon always has the latest fashions, as appropriate for the Charter holder for fabrics.

Joss Falconet is an old friend of Prince Conor’s, and owns the Spice Charter. More on him later!

House Gasquet controls all the oil and perfume coming in and out of the city.

Lady Alleyne, the mother of Antonetta, is in charge of the valuable Silk Charter and makes sure she and her daughter are always in the finest silk dresses.

The Cazalet Family has owned the Banking Charter for so long, coins are often called “cazalets”.

House Roverge owns the Dye Charter. House Sardou has the Glass Charter,

House Raspail Timber, and Alonse Esteve owns the Horse Charter.

They have their meetings in the Dial Chamber, whose seats are arranged to look like the numbers on a clock.

Sitting at midnight is House Aurelian, the Royal Family, whose charter is kingship. At these meetings the fates of cities and countries are decided with the stroke of a pen. It used to be the pen of King Markus, but as he has grown weaker with a mysterious illness, that pen has found itself in the hand of his son, Conor Aurelian…possibly the least responsible person in Castellane.
