    That is a shocking move since the best and most popular British player is head to toe Nike

    Is flexibility primarily genetic?

    It's almost entirely determined by your fitness and your consistent efforts to work at it. I have two siblings, and all three of us were college athletes. My oldest brother was a D3 runner, my middle brother was a D1 wrestler and I played D1 football. Between the three of us (same genetics), we...

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    At 24 majors I doubt anyone will achieve greater accomplishments than Djokovic, but the narrative that somehow Djoko is an elderly citizen is ridiculous. He played incredibly for the last two sets of today's match and did not show his age. Carlos could have played much better, but Djokovic only...

    Hyper g or tour bite worked well for me. A good player I hit with prefers RPM blast to any other combo he's tried.

    Do people really think Djokovic was faking the injury?

    He looked to be in legitimate pain at the conclusion of the first set and throughout the second. There's no way he has an injury that would cause him any hindrance in the next round based on his excellent movement and athleticism during sets three and four today, but I do believe he was really...

    John McEnroe calls out Djokovic [!]

    I think if all cards are on the table, Novak tweaked something trying to get out of the corner, got wrapped and took a pain killer because he was feeling legitimate pain, and was back to 100% by set three when the adrenaline and the meds took over. Djoko will have a little break now and will be...

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Djokovic was moving at 100% by the third set. Third set and beyond was brilliant, full physicality tennis from Novak.

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Correct, that's how he injured Novak to begin with running him side to side, forward on droppers, and wrong footing him.

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Right now I'd agree, but he was playing his best in that first set and it's frustrating that he can't play that level right now

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Novak was hurting in the beginning of set two. He's now playing at 100% physical ability. Carlos must get back in this mentally to have a chance, otherwise it's all over

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    That point right there. Raz pulled him wide and just had to hit a third of the court for an easy winner and hit straight down the middle to give Djoko an easy pass

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    I see what you're saying, but that's not what appears to be happening. I don't see alcaraz struggling with djokos pace

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Kinda confused here. Alcaraz was doing a pretty good job (prior to the injury) of creating points in the first set through movement, placement, and pace. Now, with a Djoko that's not moving well, he's dropped his level significantly and is just hitting the ball down the middle. What's he doing?

    John McEnroe calls out Djokovic [!]

    Apologize for what? We have seen Djoko get injured or medical attention time and time again before digging down deep and pulling out a win.

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    I love the auto line calls, but I'm baffled why they don't have auto foot fault calls and net cord calls

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Djokovic is increasing his risk level on returns so long as he doesn't have to move much. Alcaraz needs to move Djoko on his serves

    Australian Open 2025 QF - [7] Novak Djokovic (SRB) v/s [3] Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (SPN)

    Impressed with Alcaraz so far. He's raised his level and is firing on most of his cylinders at this point in the match. Agree with @Subway Tennis that MTOs can be necessary for instances like this, and we all want to see players compete at their best. However, the waiting player should be able...

    Why was Sinner allowed to leave the court for a 15 min MTO in the middle of the third set?

    Sinner's camp is at fault for his failed drug test, not internet posters or WADA. Anything happening to him was of his making or his camp's. He's not a victim, and with zero suspension or repercussion, he's simply going to face suspicion, criticism, etc. It's not nonsense, it's a fairly normal...

    Why was Sinner allowed to leave the court for a 15 min MTO in the middle of the third set?

    Nonsense would be pretending he didn't test positive for a banned substance, but he factually did. People can debate the context and impact of his failed drug test, but to pretend it didn't happen or condemn people for pointing out that he failed a drug test is nonsensical.

    Rare then, and that was a much different game of tennis too

    Why was Sinner allowed to leave the court for a 15 min MTO in the middle of the third set?

    Mostly agree, but it needs to be changed slightly to once only in a match, for either a 5 or 10 minute hard limit, and only to be taken prior to your own serve. This should not be used as a momentum swing to put your opponent at a distinct disadvantage
