He could win the CYGS this year. Think about that for a second. He manages that, and he'll certainly be a contender for Open Era GOAT.

Short of a massive achievement like that though, I predict...

Lucky for us both, they've played on 'actual' clay before. The Rome 2011 final featured Djokovic doing pretty much whatever he wanted and moving *better* than Nadal, on clay that was perfectly...

Bingo. This is one big overreaction, based on an outlandish scoreline. BMS can really bring it when she's on, and Stephens is young yet. Settle down, everyone.

I was at their IW encounter. Huge disappointment. Dimitrov looked apathetic and lost out there. That was the year that everyone got sick though, so maybe it wasn't his fault.

Second week loss at RG, one clay masters final/semifinal. Other than that, nothing to write home about.

I don't think the comparison works. Russell is better because he won more, period. Federer's better for the same reason.

The object of the game is to win, right?

The only reason he won so many majors is this weak era. Never had to face Mewtwo, who would've had the advantage on any surface.

Tough call. Probably Murray, since I'm scared of a Djokovic CYGS. But I don't care deeply enough about either player to put much stock into it. I might find myself rooting for Djokovic for no reason...

They measured the decibels back in the day and Larcher de Brito was the loudest, iirc.

That said, the tone of the grunt gets to me more than the pure volume. As such, I think Azarenka is the most...

I don't know how you do it. I'm on the west coast too and I'm lucky to get in a set and a half before passing out. Gonna try to do better tonight, but I doubt I'll make it much further than 2 AM.

I see Isner winning this. He'll win a tight first set, go on mental vacation in the second, and then regroup to surprise Fed in the third.
