Its not even close, Kournikova>>>>>
vekic also had a good 2nd half last year.
i beleive she was favoured to win.
maria is overrated when it comes to looks. shes got the shoulders of a man vekic for instance and more attractive than maria ever was.

Nadal and Novak had the EXACT same record when both won their 900th match

Tiafoe's wind-up on his forehand drives me nuts. Why the fukk isn't he using a quicker stroke?
He could be a really good player if he cleaned that up.
same shyt i was thinking

He could add 5 mph to his serve with a more fluid form too. Youd be surprised how many con man coaches there are out there. My serve is more fluid. I gotta get that clip uploaded here of it
Kournikova shytS on sharapova in looks
same shyt i was thinking
As a coach its like this
You gotta decide whether or not changing from whats working is worth the upside while experiencing short term difficulty in transition
Its hard to change a forehand after 15-20 years of playing. I get it
I can see how someone might have decided you know what..his forehand is quirky but it works so im not fukkin with it
But the serve? Cmon. I remember years ago someone put a clip up of him on here and i mentioned the serve immediately. Its still the same shyt
He keeps going like this hes not only gonna serve slower than he otherwise could but he may also develop back problems
I called out his serve technique in 2015 on here...from a clip in 2013
its 2020 and its still fukked up

Thought this dude could be a James Blake esque player in the future but he can't play on grass or clay and he's not consistent enough to get seeded at the Grand Slams.
Point taken but
Hes about to be out of the top 75
And a flaw is a flaw. People have different strokes and thats fine but his talent isnt being optimized. I am actually a coach as well..certified through ptr at the top level
Im not just a tennis fan saying shyt
A lot if these "top academies" are scams too that doesnt mean anything

I'm looking over the bracket and there's only a few guys with a chance to beat Nadal on his half of the draw, @MillionMills
The first shot would be in the 4th round with Kyrgios if his bytch ass makes it that far. He hates Nadal and McEnroe just told him after tonight's match that he'd donate $1,000 to the fire relief efforts for every set he wins the rest of the way.
Thiem would be in the quarters and then Medvedev or Stan in the semis.
I'm worried about Berrettini in Fed's draw.
Kyrgios, Thiem and Medvedev all have great chances to beat Nadal. Isn't this statistically Nadal's weakest major?
I dont worry about Berrettini against Fed. That's easy money.
Where is Tsitsipas and Zverev in the draw?
For example..
Sara errani made it to top 5 rank in singles..
With a fukking back scratch method serve technique that 5 year olds use. Probably never cracked 90 mph on a serve in her life
She clearly had top level coaching
If a player is winning you dont want to mess with whats working too much
But frances has had a terrible run and may want to tweak some things
I started with a girl who was 10 that served like errani
I changed her to a much better technique and she was hitting aces and made top 5 regional ranking by 12

Wimbledon actually is worst for Nadal if you go by % and/or win-loss record.
The new surface that he's playing on though, is the same they use at the WTF and we know he's never been a champion there and only made the finals there once. I think if Nadal makes it to the second week, he's making it to the Finals imo
