i play lefty.. so i always followed left handed players with particular interest. that did allow me the perspective to also then root for righties. and that is how i became a Fedal fan.

Also the same guy who throated a ball in the Us Open and lost in straight sets a few weeks later.. one of those sets was a bagel.

tons of people care. it is pretty telling... the slams are clearly and very obvious in that they end up with a tangible piece of hardware. the head to head is the undeniable results of each player pitting their talents against the other. we have never been in a heated battle on this scale...

no matter where things end up.. the story the world loved was the Fed and Nadal one.. and Novak will be mentioned as a part of that even if he becomes the one with the trophies.

i got orthotics when i realized my insurance covered them 100%.. nothing foamy about them.. extremely hard plastic and it has been transformative. i only where them in my tennis shoes and they are great... you would think they would be harsh on the feet and knees and hips even.. not at all. it...

the cage 3 was a great shoe.. i heard on here that the 4 is on the way out already and a completely new shoe is coming in the cage line

this might be it.. i love the guy, but i thought he was going down this year. 2 more absolute most.. 23 majors total.. if he stays healthy.. which he can't.

If it wasn't for covid- Nadal would have defended the US Open and Wimbledon would have been played.. if it wasn't for Novaks carelessness he might have won the US open.. if it wasn't again for covid the French would have been played in the heat and the new balls wouldn't have been so...

People keep going back and forth on matches fed should have nailed down.. the truth can be said for his opponents.. that's tennis. Nadal should have won in Australia.. he had that match on his racket. the lost generation garbage is also silly since almost no one can beat these 3 still..a...

if you asked him- he would have said next to none.. the guy is so humble

It wasn't an outrageous hypothesis at the time. novak throating that ball might be incredibly significant .

some records can't be touched.. this one was unreachable a few wins ago. 13 is nutty.. hopefully he gets a few more

Roger is classy.. one of the reasons he gets so much love

Don't ask what Roland Garros can do for Rafa, marvel at what Rafa has done for it.

go with hawkeye everywhere.. that is a time saver.

i thought only people on here tried jinxing players?

federer proves his genius by missing the entire pandemic which saw an absence of Wimbledon, Novak throat balling a lines judge, and now a showdown tomorrow in Paris. All in all Fed is still king

how can you say that? the French Open is less than 2 weeks away... usually you have that big let down between majors. this time its a one two punch. can't wait..

nonsense. completely right call. should have been faster.

Sort of off topic, and not. i just got a new Diadem Nova for $75..tax and shipping was under a hundred. This thing is super comfortable and controllable Pure drive type frame and plays stiffer than its rating with supreme comfort due to its foam filled. i will probably alter it slightly with...

i'm 51 and played a pro staff 85 since 8th grade until the 90 came along. recently i decided to sell the two new 2015 pro staff 90's because the i was able to more than double what i payed for them, i knew i needed a change and i still hade 3 ncodes as my main racket. i was down to 2 and i...

obviously the tennis players need to wake up. the rules need clarification with zero tolerance for reckless handling of the ball. discard all balls softly with a roll to the perimeter. no more launching balls to the upper decks during a match. throwing rackets and the like with clear...

hawkeye does a better job and actually moves the game along as much as the service clock

intent should be a factor. so should blindly hitting a ball that could end up hurting someone.

it was the right call... just took too long to make it.

historic turn of events. a new slam winner. kinda awesome

try and think back a few weeks, months.. the US OPEN is being played and we are watching the best we can have right now. i'll take it.

of course he talked about retiring. it's close.

i live in the states and never saw another astro turf court beyond the two courts in my small beach town. baffling surface. the skids, irregular bounce, and the sand. i will say the court lasts forever. I'm 52 and i played on this court since I was a kid. it was resurfaced 5 years ago and...

i feel pretty lucky to go and pick up a used elevate tour a few weeks back. i rarely buy rackets completely blind. i have now played 12 sets with it and it is undefeated. loved it from the very first hit and don't feel any need to customize it. so maneuverable and comfortable with surprising...
