    Who Wins From Here (Post Djokoraz Departure)?

    Who wins the US Open after the two shocking early departures? Only two previous major titleists in the field, neither multi-major champs. Plus a field of people led by Zverev chasing the ultimate trophy. Should be fun to watch it play out.

    On the Wawrinka-Zverev matchup

    I was bored and I started searching for matchups, and I found myself seeing Zverev leading 5-0! against Wawrinka, and in most of their matches, Stan was the favourite coming into the match, such as St. Petersburg 2016 and Miami 2017. I may say that Zverev's first serve robs a lot of time from...

    High time for this obligatory TTW GPPD thread. Sascha is 25. Will be 26 before 2023 French Open. His BO5 record against Top10 opponents is no longer winless as he defeated Alcaraz at RG22. Please feel encouraged to share your opinion, 45 days to vote. Poll closes on 17 January 2023. 2022...

    Zverev will win 2023 ATP Finals

    It's a pity he wasn't able to compete in 2022 finals to defend the trophy as Sascha in his traditional November shape is extremely hard to beat. Therefore I don't consider this as a bold prediction: you can put his 3rd YEC title in the 2023 calendar. 2018 - 2021 - 2023

    Zverev out of Top10 after 275 weeks

    He will be down to #11 in November 2022. First time out of Top10 since July 2017. Not good. Get well, Sascha!

    Let's go back to 2017 Rome for a moment

    It's 20-years old Sascha in his epic win against Djokovic in the M1000 final. "A Star Is Born" as ATP announces. And we have 14-years old Carlos. Tiny kid playing junior tournaments. Would you believe 5 years later who is the first to win his maiden slam title?

    Zverev after R4 loss: "One of the worst matches I've played since Wimbledon"

    He also says he came here with the goal to win the title and take the world #1 spot, but doesn't deserve it when playing like this. Says it's silly to talk about becoming world #1 after a match like this. Needs to figure himself out first. He doesn't look very happy.
