Yes. Idiots will be idiots.

Sabalenka just has too much power for most of the women. If she's mentally off, she's WAYYYYY off, but when she is on, she's tough to beat.

She's a physical marvel They had a graphic up showing how she hits it damn near as hard as the men do And some of those forehand winners down the line, God God Almighty Frankly she looks like she could go toe to toe with the women in WWE

Khachanov gave that break back in record time lol.

This level from Djokovic won't be enough to beat Alcaraz. Way too many UEs.

There's absolutely nothing Stef can do to bother Alcaraz

Nope, not one thing. He's Alcaraz's pigeon

Does Alcaraz remind you of a young Nadal, or is he different?

Toying with Tsitsipas

I think he's more complete on HC than Nadal while Nadal was better on grass (Carlos only played on Wimbledon, so we'll see). He does remind me of Nadal and Novak with how his defense can just suffocate you when they go into lock down mode

I'll say this...if he stays healthy, he's winning 10 slams minimum. And it's not because of these guys are bad, but he's THAT good imo

Facts, I definitely see that. His athleticism combined with defense is amazing
Do you think he has the potential to be a better power player than Nadal or Djokovic? I see he is very elite with his serve game and a very powerful forehand

 

[phillycavsfan]

I think the only player that could handle a level like this from Carlos on clay is prime Nadal. I don't think I've ever seen him play like this. For fukks sake what's Alcaraz gonna look like when he reaches his prime?

He just doesn't have the elite offensive power game to give Alcaraz any problems

Alcaraz looking like it's cardio practice for him

I thought Stef would be more competitive... cause im watching from work.

He has and always will have the mental toughness of a soufflé.
