Can I be Federer's backhand when I grow up?

 

This really sucks, hopefully the open finals are better

 

Roger really gonna go the whole Wimbledon without dropping a set

 

666! Federer is Illuminati confirmed

 

Federer is timeless. GOAT.

 

He's been flawless throughout this tournament. Can't believe he didn't drop a set! And to win his first Wimbledon since 2012 - even if the final was underwhelming it's such an incredible achievement!

Unlucky Cilic. Tough match for him and always hard to lose a final.

 

I knew they gave Maria a WC entry for the slam, but hot damn, Simona should be PISSED about this

 

Oh man, that's an unlucky first round opponent for Simona haha. I reckon she'll still get over the line, though.

 

First two day reactions because I just realized I'd missed them:

Shocked that Jack Sock was upset in the first round with the year he's had.
Federer dropped the first set? What madness is this?

Sharapova beating Halep was 0% surprising to me. That's her worst type of opponent.
Kerber being dismantled is a very surprising to me.
Muguruza-Pliskova final, then?

 

Federer needs to stop giving me these mini heart attacks. That didn't look promising for a while there.

 

Nadal-Daniel has been the opposite of what I expected.

 

So. Many. Upsets.

The bottom half of the men's draw is literally a clusterfuck. It's awesome.

 

Serena had a baby girl!

 

Radwanska-Vandeweghe has been a tense blast.

 

WTA without Serena is one of the most parity-equal sports in the world. So much fun tennis today.

 

It boggles my mind who inactive this thread is compared to like golf lol

 

Disappointed for Shapo but he put up a hell of a fight.

 

He's 18, should be a fun ride

 

His serve is hideous but effective

 

Not to shabby for his US Open debut ! Man seeing some different blood on the men's side is great to see.

 

I didn't know this thread existed. Tennis is tied with football for me as my favorite sport.

 

Suarez Navarro is one of my least favorite players to watch play. And now she's messing with my girl venus grrrr

 

Amazing third set by Venus.

 

Lorenzi is fighting.

 

Kvitova is so easy to root for after what she's been through
