Yet the debut was ruined by the ‘debacle’ of his ‘Jupiter’, defeated 12-1 by the ‘Los Angeles’ led by Collin Morikawa. Morikawa himself, who scored the first point of the match, showed up on the court wearing the “LA strong” t-shirt, showing solidarity with the large city in Southern California devastated by fires. Cheering for the ‘Los Angeles’, of course, Serena Williams. A tennis champion, together with her husband Alexis Ohanian and her sister Venus, she leads the team composed of Morikawa, Sahith Theegala, Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood.
