Do you think Wimbledon 2022 will be the worst slam again?

[liriel]

Ok no hate here. I read here (the best and worst of the year thread) that many of you were bored by Wimbledon and chose it as a biggest disappointment of the year. All rivals gone by r4 and Novak didn't struggle for it.
Wimbledon is an epic event but this year was subpar.
We have no clue what happens but what do you predict? Another easy path for Novak and the most predictable slam with the least amount of fight?
AO, FO, USO - I can see a strong rivalry. It actually already happened this year. Not with Wimbledon. What's your take?

 

[Adman]

If you think Wimbledon 2021 was the worst slam, you should switch to curling

 

[big ted]

depends if fedr & rafa play

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Its the worst every year. LOL

 

[liriel]

Its the worst every year. LOL

They basically made that slam along with Murray and before that Serena Williams. Would it be an accurate description?

 

[Slicehand]

Its curious that wimbledon should be the most unpredictable slam because of its nature but as everybody is so bad on grass djokovic doesnt even have to try

 

[safinmafia]

Been so since 2002.

 

[TearTheRoofOff]

Stop giving me ideas.

 

[Third Serve]

Its the worst every year. LOL

thought it was better than the AO in 2019 and it was deffo the best Slam of 2018

 

[Yugram]

Isn’t Wimbledon the worst Slam like for the last 13 years with the exception of 2018?

 

[Rafaforehand74]

It will likely be awful. All the other slams next year will be competitive. But this one is already done and dusted. The next gen can play on hard court but none can play on grass. Novak won last year playing nowhere near his best. He will win easily in 2022.

 

[TennisLurker]

I would rather see Kevin Anderson win it than another Djokovic Berrettini match

 

[Sudacafan]

Ok no hate here.

OK

 

[The Big Foe fan]

No its the french open which has been most boring since 2005 with the exception of 2009, 2015, 2016 & 2021 bruh...

 

[PMChambers]

It's entertaining, usually in 2-off 128 singles competition you can generally find some interesting matches. But it's not the pinnacle of tennis quality, hasn't been in a long time. It more interesting in that it puts plays well out of there comfit zone than quality of play.
However, it's still entertaining and the only reason may say otherwise is because they only watch Big 4 men's and Williams sisters matches. Most people enjoy the entertainment value with higher level of ignorance than the past. People in mass will watch big events regardless of quality over quality events of lesser value. Olympics prove people will watch anything.

 

[BGod]

AO without Novak will be a farce.

Probably ends up with 6 of 8 Quarterfinalists being very so so or upstarts like 2017 USO.

I can absolutely see Medvedev & Zverev both upset early.

 

[Visionary]

not me

All rivals gone by r4 and Novak didn't struggle for it.

not the reason to be bored

Wimbledon is an epic event but this year was subpar.

better than AO

Wimby better again than AO next year. Doesn't matter as much who wins but how good the matches are and how well they are organized

What's your take?

Me think Aussies are about to disorganize and politicize their "Open" again and mistreat and underpay the competitors one more time.

 

[darthrafa]

it is very disappointing to see no one can challenge djoker on grass as it is apparent that he is not that good on grass.

 

[Visionary]

"disappointing" indeed :LOL

 

[Deleted member 770948]

Wimbledon always has the weakest fields, because Thiem, Zverev, Medvedev, Tsitsipas are not contenders at Wimbledon..... and they are the best players outside of the big3.

 

[Rafaforehand74]

I would rather see Kevin Anderson win it than another Djokovic Berrettini match

At this stage I think there is more chance of Gary Anderson!

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Nextgen can't play on grass.

 

[BeatlesFan]

depends if fedr & rafa play

Once again.... Fed is not playing Wimbledon in 2022. This has been pointed out continuously. He's already said it's "extremely doubtful" he will play there next year. That means he's not playing.

 

[Kralingen]

Novak will undergo an Agassi-like returning decline and lose to Berrettini Zverev or RaoMUG imo.

 

[Slicehand]

nobody can smoke the grass nowadays, i remember 70s grass, now that was the real grass

 

[DjokoLand]

It’s not that it’s bad it’s just predictable. Djokovic obviously has Med/Zed on HC then on Clay can lose to a few especially if Nadal is back. But at Wimbledon there is no challengers.
It’s actually been this way from years. Fed 14 and 15 was his only challenger

 

[liriel]

Ok. Would you go to Wimbledon for like 1 day just for experience? Ok be like "nope, on my bucket list till it gets better"

 

[yokied]

Fed and his ludicrous work ethic and bottomless pit of positivity is coming for us all.

 

[junior74]

Berrettini, Hurkacz and Shapovalov in the SFs. Who could wish for moar?

Also, in quarters: Fucsovics, FAA and Khachanov.

 

[ttwreader]

AO will take over that title.

 

[Mustard]

AO without Novak will be a farce.

It really won't. He knows what he has to do to play it.

 

[Aabye5]

He can, but this clearly wasn't his best year.

Love people still pushing Thiem. lol wake up

 

[Aabye5]

Love people still pushing Thiem. lol wake up

Thiem on clay or hard courts is very good. Not on grass.

 

[Rosstour]

Thiem on clay or hard courts is very good. Not on grass.

*Was. He WAS good.

 

[Adam Copeland]

Thiem is done and dusted.
