Zverev got that Canelo gas tank in the grand slams....always gassing late. I do believe if he ever can manage his stamina, He's a multi slam winner. Same with Thiem. He'll never be shyt on grass but he should rule clay when Nadal retires or starts to seriously slip.

That young Greek cat is solid tooii.

Hopefully the young gawd Félix Auger-Aliassime is legit

All the 90's generation have plenty of time to get it together, well into their 30's.

Could be a:
7 6 7 6 14
6 7 6 7 12
...with this Isner/Anderson match

Watch Rafa and Novak go for another 5 hours

The accuracy in these two posts from yesterday

Novak has two hours to finish the final before he gets relegated to the small screen for me. I wonder what the organizers of Wimbledon would have done if England made the final?

She may be the most accomplished but she is not the greatest tennis player of all time. A woman simply cannot be unless you're not comparing her to men. Sorry

Cosign. Honestly, the semi's and Finals for women's Grand Slams NEED TO BE FIVE SETS

 

[Mr. McDowell]

But who's next? There's always a bridge to the next gen and right now there's nobody.

This is the part that worries me as well. I just decided to take a cursory glance at the ATP records and damn if Federer, Djoker and Rafa are objectively three of the five greatest players of all time if you check the wins, the titles, the win percentage. It's incredible. I am going to be sad when they're gone.

Only Sampras and Federer compare to her all time

If joker wins tomorrow, the triumvirate of federer-nadal-djokovic will have won 46 out of the last 54 slams(starting from when rafa won his first)

The remaining 8 are...

3 from murray
3 from stan
1 from delpo
1 from cilic.

Serena plays best 3 of 5 like the men do?

 

[R=G]

Who is her age playing like that..3 out of 5 and those type of gimmicks.

 

[Nero Christ]

looks like Novak is about to make quick work of Anderson like most of us thought

 

[Figaro]

Some of these unforced errors by Anderson

Beat Federer then become a deer in front of head lights in the final

 

[malbaker86]

Anderson would have been better serve to lose via walkover and not show up as oppose to being a pigeon today

 

[Nero Christ]

I blame Fed for this, coulda gotten b2b GOAT matches instead of watching this giant windmill underwhelm

 

[nyknick]

Is it me or are they pushing this Serena is a mother storyline way too hard? Making it sound like she's the only woman to give birth and play a sport. l feel it's more impressive that she's playing well at age 36-37 than having a baby.

I have a hard time not feeling that it says something about the WTA that she can miss all that time, be raising a newborn and still destroy the field by and large. Women's tennis is in bad shape.
