LOL must have missed these tournaments when they happened, this is what Djokovic dislikers have turned to these days :rolleyes::p

Holy who's this guy facing Stan and what'd he do with Milos?? I can watch this type of play from Raonic any day of the week, I LOVE it, win or lose from him!

This is the first match I've watched all week in full, it's definitely a faster court, am I right? That or these guys are just absolutely hammering the ball...

Good win by Nole today, don't think Federer was at his best but that has a lot to do with the mental side of the game when he faces Djokovic, imo. Looking forward to see what happens next year, first few tournament of the year could be very telling. And to all the people getting excited after...

Then call them "full-field" events, I'm pretty sure someone has mentioned this before. Putting them all together in one category gives the notion that that they all share the same prestige. If Player A were to win 5 GS's and 20 Master titles, is he he greater than Player B who wins 8 GS's, 8...

Haven't seen Djokovic spray these many unforced errors in a while, too bad. Credit to the Grandmaster.

Simply wrong. I can't find it right now but if someone can find that thread about Djokovic's 5 set record before 2011, you'd see that it was equal or better than Nadal's and/or Federer's at the time. This myth of Djokovic having no stamina before 2011 is one of the funniest things this board...

Excuse me? I've never said that in my life, I'd suggest you don't make things up and post false information, just makes you look lazy.

Don't people get tired of constantly posting the same "weak era/weak #1/boring/unpopular" content, day, after day, after day, after day and etc. Seriously, the commitment level must be through the roof. We need more posters like @Nathaniel_Near and @Gary Duane on here, fans of tennis more than...

Your posts about Djokovic 2015 and Federer 2006 had nothing to do with the OP's post, so yes you could say you went off topic, which caused a chain event that included OP getting involved too. Shame, this is actually a cool topic. As to mine, yeah I'd probably trade Djokovic's AO 2012 for...

I honestly thought he was going to take Wimbledon this year, didn't see the Federer blitz coming. It depends on his hunger imo, this year was surely very disappointing to him, especially with the positive start he had. I think he grabs one next year, not sure which one but I'll go ahead and say...

I think an inspired Stan could beat him. Remember that he had match points versus Federer last year to advance to his first final at the YEC, so I would assume he has some motivation to reach that stage after the disappointment of last year.

Maybe some people, you know, actually like their match-up? An amazing conclusion, but still...

Semi-related question: does anyone know what the longest wining streak is on indoor courts? I know Novak has a 36 match win-streak going right now, who's he trying to catch?

He's Ultron and Voldemort. :eek: I wish Djokovic would just accept the badass role in the tennis world and embrace a Terminator-esque domination on the court. :p:cool:

Fixed that for you mate. :p

I think this record is cool too, Djokovic becomes the first man since the ranking-system was incorporated to finish YE#1 in consecutive years, more than once. 2011 and 2012, and then 2014 and 2015. If it wasn't for Rafa's Super Saiyan form in 2013, Nole could have possibly had 5 years in a row...

50 percent won on both serves... :eek:

Righttt, how lucky of Djokovic to be gifted 3 Grand Slams! :rolleyes:

@DavidLawTennis: 'Djokovic warmed up with Mario Ancic today, and they were practising his response to the SABR.' - Jeff Tarango on @5liveSport. @bbctennis

Is this where I'm supposed to be sneaky and post a picture of your favourite player holding a runner-up trophy? :eek:

Djokovic and Cameron Hughes (the fan) both said it wasn't planned?

Serena hits a net cord and wins the set, roars and no hand up for the acknowledgment of the lucky break.

You're both thinking of the same pronounciation, it's just there's no proper phonetic way of writing it in English. There's a distinct way of saying the "o" in Serbian/Croatian that isn't found in the English language, thus the confusion.

Yeah they said the shade affects the speed, also related to the cooler courts I guess.

Gilbert and Cahill saying Ashe feels like an indoor court because of the steel structure around the stadium; no wind, lower bounce, slower court, and lots of shade. Djokovic wondering why the roof couldn't have come sooner :eek:

It's common in other sports as well for a player who relies so much on their athleticism to be at their best. Shaq, Shawn Kemp are names from basketball that pop up in my head, a lot of running backs in the NFL. For a lot of these guys, while they didn't drop right off the earth as they aged...

LOL :D:p:D
