On Monday, Frances Tiafoe slipped and fell on the grass courts at the 2024 Queen's Club Championships (also known as the cinch Championships). The American player was forced to retire during the third set of his first-round match against Rinky Hijikata.

Now, Tiafoe's availability for Wimbledon is in question. This comes at the same time as a slew of injuries and scheduling issues are causing players to miss either Wimbledon or the Summer Olympics.

To add insult to injury, Tiafoe's driving skills are coming under fire. The cinch Championships' social media team has released hilarious candid interviews with tour players where they ask who has the best navigation skills and who would be the ideal road trip partner.

“When cars are driving too slow you can just shoot it at the car” 🚗🤣

Tommy Paul and Taylor Fritz independently arrived at the same conclusion - not Tiafoe. During his interview, Paul was asked which tennis player has the worst navigation skills.

Paul said flatly, "Frances [Tiafoe]. That's going to be a popular answer. Anyone who knows knows. When I'm practicing with Frances, I park as far away as the closest spot because I don't want to park next to him. You never know what's going to happen."

“I want my horn to just be like a really loud grunt” 😂

Fritz was asked the same question and replied, "I don't know. But I'll give you a better one. The worst driver I know is Frances [Tiafoe]."

Ouch. It is rough out here for Tiafoe. Hopefully, he will overcome his injury and be able to show off his tennis prowess and driving skills more this summer.
