Djokovic is just absolutely incredible. Indisputable GOAT, no matter how this match finishes. Federer played prettier tennis, Nadal owns clay, Sampras serves better than all of them… but Nole is just insane.
Awesome. Novak will be around for a few more years to challenge Carlos but someone else is going to need to step up once Novak retires. Sadly, I don't think it is anyone from this current crop. Or they're not showing many signs of it yet.
Carlos!!!! So happy. Trying to read lips, it looks like Carlos yelled “Papa” when he went to the ground after winning. Just adorable.
Great to enjoy this moment. In five years time I'll be sick of seeing his little winning smile again.
Alcaraz has 20 ranking points on Djokovic after yesterday. That's insane. Medvedev isn't even close to them.
Isner's retiring after the US Open. Taking Nadal to five in the first round at the French when he missed being seeded by one ranking is always one of those matches I'll remember. And of course, Wimbledon vs Mahut.
Probably doesn't get the credit he deserves given his boring style of play. They mentioned it on The Tennis Podcast but he may prove to be more influential than what you would think. Given his long holds of service games at Wimbledon and US Open, it helped to usher in the fifth-set tiebreakers that we now take for granted.
I always forget how much I love watching tennis until majors roll around. No time these days. But Ben Shelton is fun to watch… and that serve! He just hit two in a row at 149.
Fun tournament so far. Very excited for Shelton vs Tiafoe, Coco looks great, and Alcaraz is appointment viewing for the next 15 years. Was really hoping Sinner would pull through and give us Alcaraz-Sinner 2
