The Shape Of Things To Come: Denis Shapovalov!

Rosstour

G.O.A.T.
Rising star, bright future! Still young, too early to tell, though.

Unfortunately 25 isn't young. This is actually his last chance, IMO

I said the same thing about Thiem when he was 25-26 and people laughed. But historically 27-28 is the age when players lose the invincibility of youth (Federer 2008, Nadal 2014) and now players in the Zverev/Medvedev/Tpas cohort are starting to show signs of being caught by the guys who are 20-22.

Shapo has a year or two to make it back to the top, after that the climb will be too steep

I hadn't seen Shapo play for at least a few years so near the end of the 2nd set today against Zed I decided to tune in to see what was going on.
Nothing has changed. The song remains the same.
Was always a head case. Still is.
And always will be.
