He got beat. It happens to all. Novak will bounce back and have a good chance to win the French Open and Wimbledon IMO. He isn't done winning majors quite yet. I do feel it will be more difficult for him to win more hardcourt majors though.

Great post and great memories.

A very tough match for Nole. Almost every time I have doubts he will not win which is not often, he finds a way. Until he loses a few of these type of matches, I will go with him. It's hard not to. The day is coming for the decline but not quite yet IMO. He may very well pull a Tom Brady the...

We all knew that for years eventually his body would break down to where he simply cannot do it any longer at the level he expects out of himself. Sadly I feel we are at that point IMO. Amazing he lasted this long considering what he put his body through. What a long great career this man had if...

The big three pushed themselves because of the competition between them. Maybe each of them do not win as many grand slams and not play as long as they did had the other 2 not existed. Just food for thought and maybe not true. Just something to think about.

In regards to covid and the vaccines, I'm sure Novak is okay with just being correct in his decision not to comply with what has come to be known as a failed experiment to the extent nobody knows or understands, yet.

Mac in 1984 was in a zone that may never be equaled. I have not seen anything like that year since. Just my opinion.

5 - 2 Nole. That should do it. BTW I really do not like how the crowd is blacked out.

He seems to still have the drive to be the very best or at least winning majors which needs to be the number 1 priority now. If he can keep it up, reduce the schedule and stay healthy, I can see 2 or 3 more years probably. When he goes, tennis will be hurting unless some young stars other than...

He lost the eye of the tiger for reasons stated in other posts after that amazing 1984 season. He never got it back. John McEnroe being on top of the tennis world was great for the game. I never would have thought he would never again win another grand slam after 1984. I figured at the time we...

Going with Mac here. Look at that 1984 season of dominance. The greatest season ever IMO. He won 7 majors in a 6 year period right ? Also just the most beautiful and efficient style of play ever seen. In the 80's, he was one of the most well known people on the face of the earth too.

You would have been correct a month ago.

I use a Pro Kennex 110 reach. Picked it up about 20 years ago a a K Mart store. Here's the weird thing. It was used and had no Upc code. It was nothing they sold. I'm thinking someone returned it and fooled the customer service and got a refund for a used racquet. They sold it to me for 20...

If this is in the wrong area, please move. I just thought there would be more in this section who would know more about this stick. Today I found a Wilson T-5000 with the case and in great condition at a thrift store for $ 2.50. I have never see one before so I just had to pick it up. I still...
