They STILL say big 4. It drives me nuts.

There's a pretty clear like 5 tiers of players and Murray is not in the top tier

I would say:

A) Fed, Nadal, Novak
B) Murray
C) Wawrinka, Del Po, maybe Cilic

Osaka played out of her mind last night. Madison got aggressive with the returns and was going for winners but she kept composure. If she plays like that she has a chance.

Rice Krispie knees again

I think she’ll be too nervous, the first couple of games will set the tone

Nadal can't afford to keep having long matches in early rounds. He's not faking. His knees been fukked up for like 9 years. He wore them out trying to adapt to GOATFed back in the day (and he won slams because of it). The knee issues are the repercussions of that go-for-every-ball-like-hell style of play that he perfected beyond Hewitt. Still, sad to see him quit in good form because of that shyt.

That foot injury he had way back in 04 affects his knee

I will say this even though I don’t like the term Big 4, the tour don’t feel the same without Murray. When any of them weren’t around cause of injuries it felt weird.

Cosign. Wimbledon doesn't feel the same w/o Murray and the same with the FO w/o Fed no matter how low his chances of winning it is

funny how his knees are only acting up when he's down 2 sets facing a fellow top 10 player

 

[UpAndComing]

stop it. was he acting like his knees were acting up against Berdych in the AO 2015 and Novak when he lost in straight sets ?

Against Cilic this year at the AO, he was up in the match when his knees went to shyt

One of the announcers was trying to call this match for Serena two points into Osaka's first serve.

Osaka moves so much better than Serena. She should win this match unless her nerves get frayed.

 

[Nero Christ]

yea Serena's movement has drastically fallen off...I mean I didn't expect it to be there forever but man
