Ok so in order which grand slam do you think is the hardest to win to the easiest and why.
Of course the logical answer would be they all equally difficult because at any one time you are competing with the best players in the world, and they are seeded which means each game generally gets tougher and tougher.
However this is TT, we do not do logic so here's mine.
So hardest to easiest.
1. French Open - grueling clay court, long rallies, especially in today's game the technique requires a lot more from the body to really hit through. Doing this for two weeks pushes the body to the edge.
2. Australian Open - I was going to say Wimbledon however the weather down under has a massive impact. The slower court, means we have long matches and the weather is really testing.
3. Wimbledon - Only reason I say is because it is easier to hold serve on grass. We see the stats the matches are quickest on this surface, lowest bounce, quickest points etc. Often when two big servers play in Wimbledon, it often goes to the tie breaker.
4. US Open - no real reason, but it just seems like a good balance between speed, weather/conditions. Big servers are still rewarded, and rallies are decent length.
Your thoughts?
