They really shouldn’t interview the losers on court. Poor guy

I posted that when she was down 3-0 in the second set and looked like it was about to be 4-0. What a comeback.

Without Nadal, how many more does he have, 30? Too lazy to look.

Damn. I really thought he’d give it one last go in a major. We were lucky to see him play a few matches in Cincinnati.

Federer, Nadal, Joker trio is just absurd.


There's no other time in tennis history I can think of that comes close. The next one would be Sampras and Agassi? Maybe the Laver and Emerson years?

What's crazy is without even one of those guys, we'd be talking a lot more about Andy Murray.

Yeah... imagine the number of players that would have won even a single major had it not been for even one of those three.

I recently heard the same sentiment expressed about Evert–Navratilova.

We flew through the first 5 Break Point episodes on Netflix. It’s okay. It’s clearly made for non-fans as a lot of the info is already known even if you’re just a casual observer. The show is trying to do for tennis what Drive to Survive did for F1 or Hard Knocks does for the NFL. It focuses on the personality of the players to try to get the viewer to relate to the game on another level. Problem is, outside of Kyrgios who is the focus of the first episode, tennis players are pretty damn boring. Still, it’s a quick watch and an interesting look at some behind the scenes stuff.
