Stef possibly has the best FH in the circuit (bar Nadal), but he has to protect his BH so much that it does not shine as much as it could.
I don’t really agree. Stef FH cannot really function as a scorching sledgehammer (think Delpo, Fed or Sampras) because he cannot hit flat missiles despite having an Eastern FH. Plus, his FH is too wristy, hence lots of shanking. I mean, he has an Eastern FH but doesn’t have its greatest strength.

OTOH, Sinner FH is vulnerable if his feet are not planted.
 
Why discuss something that will not happen? :unsure:

Nadal is retired for almost 2 years now.

I'm asking what your thoughts are if he vultures it.

Difficult for you to say that Nadal is vulturing?

This is the problem I have with such complaining....it's always the OTHER GUY who is vulturing.
 
This is a much better watch than “Angeball”

Tsitsipas playing his best tennis in years and now Sinner has joined the party.
 
@Aussie Darcy Sinners B game is better than everyone’s A game except Djokovic’s and Alcaraz’s and that’s the scary reality in 2024. You’ll see by the end of this match
What is this? I asked you a question, if he was to lose this match, what’s the reason. It’s sad the way you keep going about Sinner. His B game is not better than everyone’s A game on tour. This is the guy who got spanked by Altmaier from 2 sets to 1 up at the French Open last year.
 
Zendaya also has the tennis movie coming out, so it doesn't surprise me to see her first in IW and in MC.

If Nadal comes to win titles from a 2 years retirement then obviously it says the tour is absolutely dead.
 
I told you he would. I really don’t expect him to be in his prime and losing to an incomplete failed player such as Tsitsipas. He’ll always have that terrible backhand to be exploited
“Incomplete failed player as Tsitsipas” is just so unnecessary. Man has won this tournament twice. No need to be so rude towards him.

My friend, this is 2024 Sinner. 25-1. He ain’t going down to a player who has only won a Los Cabo’s 250 in the last 12 months

Man, you can understand that they think that he is God. They are just little fanboys.

Yes it is

chicken legs might still prevail today, but once the French Open comes around, he will be chanceless

My friend, the French Open wasn’t even 12 months ago. Sinner got his ass handed to him by a relative nobody. Quit putting down every player on tour when Sinner was losing 2R at a slam to Altmaier. I’ve told you before, the way you act makes people dislike Sinner.

I am not saying that his forehand could not be better, but based on ATP statistics, his forehand last year was only behind Djokovic and Alcaraz, who have much better backhands.

Also, I don’t remember anyone getting the best of him on that wing without having to first explore his weak BH.
 
Jesus, Nadal hasn’t won anything in the last 12 months so do you want to call him a failed player? Do you not understand that you go on way too hard about anyone who plays Sinner? You make me want to cheer against him. Do better, be better.
Nadal is a legend. Tsitsipas has lost more finals than he has won

He sounds like he's very young and doesn't fully understand how tennis works. It's good to root for your favorite player, but there's no need to diminish his opponent's skills or achievements.
