Avengers Infinity War 2018. Much better than Avengers Age of Ultron 2015, especially the portrayal of the main villain. Ultron had some of the mannerisms on a stroppy teenager which is apart from being out character from what I'd expect of a villain it was also different from how he was...

What's the surprise here. Pete and Boris never even played flat out at an official tournament like Queens prior to Wimbledon, so what's so surprising about a top player giving even less during practice.

It can be no coincidence?

We'd need the roof closed at least a few more times to balance up with the slowed down courts so Nadal needs to put things in perspective.

If was a close match decided here and there by a few points and a roof.

Not for VB.

Let's wait until he is as good as we think he can be at his current age before we start talking about which areas he does or doesn't do as well as he used to. After Wimbledon he said he had doubts if he'd reach slam winning level again so let's see how much better a more assured Novak is at the...

Not my point. Reread what I wrote Then it becomes a comparison of which tournament had more 'name' players rather then who actually played who so back to my 'name dropping' objection. How tough a player's draw is, is determined by who they played not by how many high seeded players they could...

That's my point. Why do these other people work out figures which skirt around the issue rather than actually generate lists of actual players played against then we will see the real picture.

It's name dropping if one's favourite player didn't actually play them in the draw.

If participation percentage isn't the actual list of players played against then it's 'name dropping'.

Give the article credit for canonizing Nadal's heroic performance against Djokovic back now to his very bestmy ass. Read it for what it is then it succeeds.
