    List of Latest Match Finishes

    The on-court clock showed 4:54 AM after the final point so I went with that instead of 4:55

    Kvitova d Sabalenka in Sydney, 6-1, 7-5.

    I think it was just the typical letdown after a title win (Shenzhen). She's got a great chance to win a Slam this year.

    What should be the rule on racquet smashing?

    Simple question: How do you feel about the current rules on racquet smashing? I'm having a heated debate with a friend on what the majority of tennis fans think.

    Novak: Amazing and.. not very exciting?

    100% this. Djokovic is an AMAZING player and athlete, no question, but his game bores me. No reason for anyone to take it the wrong way, it's just my opinion.

    Nadal Stands SO FAR BACK ~ Why Not Pull a Michael Chang??

    I was wondering the same thing throughout the match. Surely, it would work once, and even if not, at least it would keep Nadal more alert and introduce an element of doubt, causing him to stand closer to the baseline.

    List of Latest Match Finishes

    First time that 2 matches finish after 2 AM at a year's US Open. Also, Nadal's 4th match on the list, the most among all players, and with a perfect 4-0 record as well.

    Anybody else not excited by tennis anymore?

    All I can add to this is that we were extremely fortunate to witness the Fedalovic era (and the Sampras/Agassi era for that matter) and it is very very difficult to see 1, 2, or 3 players totally dominate the game to such an extent in the future. Doesn't mean it isn't possible, but it's highly...

    Naomi Osaka's Attitude

    It was so sad to hear her interview with Weissman after her 2nd round win in Charleston when she said she doesn't really have any friends. Then the next day of course, she cries on the court and talks about feeling depressed. I feel really bad for her and can understand how being introverted...

    Let's appreciate John Isner

    Without the Big 4, the men's field is like the WTA - different winner each week depending on who got hot and made the most of his/her opportunities. Frankly, Zverev, DelPo and Chung all played well below their best. But congrats to Isner anyway, say what you will, he deserved a Masters title...

    Federer: Anyone Think He Will Reach 20 Majors?

    Wow, quite a bit of flaming towards the OP back in 2008 for what turned to be a genius prediction.
