is Goran Meddy's next coach?
It's his necklace talisman. Wards off any and all HR decisions.Interesting that the other Gilles (Cervara) always stays in place.
I always thought he was like Simon 2.0. I guess with Simon he reverted back to the 1.0 version.Bottom line is that Medvedev's just got worse since Simon came on board. Basically Medvedev started playing like Simon and it's not working.
Never thought medvedev and Simon were similar. Grand slam champion and success of medvedev would never be what it was today if they were the same.I always thought he was like Simon 2.0. I guess with Simon he reverted back to the 1.0 version.
Can the Russian retire with a second Major title?

I mean Simon's playing style was just super steady flat, get every ball back. That's what Meddy is except he's better at everything. Hence 2.0.Never thought medvedev and Simon were similar. Grand slam champion and success of medvedev would never be what it was today if they were the same.
Felt medvedev was more like Murray and Hewitt. Not as talented but similar.

Both actually. Did you?Did you ever watch EITHER play? JFC
How can you possibly know when or what to post let alone properly certify other posts if you aren’t receiving timely information on all things tennis related. This needs to be fixed ASAP. The soul of TTWs very limited to non-existent democracy is at stake.Nobody told me they were working together.

ToughCan the Russian retire with a second Major title?
Medvedev is about tactics. His IQ is never and should never be in question. That’s probably why he hired Simon.Question is, why on earth did he hire Simon in the first place. RuZZian needs offensive game, his defence is already stellar. He desperately lacks a killing shot and serve has regressed significantly due to hernia and shoulder injury
UnlikelyCan the Russian retire with a second Major title?
He’s proven he can beat one of sinner or alcaraz in a GS event.Unlikely
Tell me 1 title Medvedev has won in the last 12-18 monthsHe’s proven he can beat one of sinner or alcaraz in a GS event.
However like in USO final - he looked gassed after beating alcaraz in the semis to beat Nole.
Then the 5 setter against Jannik in Wimb 2024 - he wasn’t able to beat Alcaraz next.
I think med had the perfect t game plan in that 2024 AO final but his legs were just too tired from the 5 setters prior. In GS events - the key to staying fresh is limiting the 5 setters early in the tournament. Doesn’t matter how fit you are. It catches up to you recovering for only 24 hours til the next one.

0. Where did I say he was winning any?Tell me 1 title Medvedev has won in the last 12-18 months
I felt Shelton started to improve in terms of point construction throughout Australian open. But watching him against sinner, he’s far away from getting to the grand slam champion level.Simon would be a good coach for someone playing Kamikaze tennis like Shelton, but in the case of Daniil we all knew he wasn't going to add much to his game.
Sinner is crushing everyone right now on hardcourt. There’s nobody close right now from the baseline. He’s the new Djokovic. We will see if clay changes anything.I felt Shelton started to improve in terms of point construction throughout Australian open. But watching him against sinner, he’s far away from getting to the grand slam champion level.
How many slams you feel Sinner will win?I felt Shelton started to improve in terms of point construction throughout Australian open. But watching him against sinner, he’s far away from getting to the grand slam champion level.
Hard to say/tell. Still need to wait on WADA decision as he could face 2 months to 2 years suspension for two failed PED tests with a quite unusual story.How many slams you feel Sinner will win?
26-28How many slams you feel Sinner will win?
Who mutually decided first.

Watching tennis channel this morning - med’s comments after the match revealed he barely played much in the offseason after Turin. He and his wife welcomed a baby girl and then spent time with family with little practice.Med, like Thiem, ( RIP to the Hapsburg dynasty) , has too much arm action on his shots, raise that SW young man, let the racquet do the work.
You think he expected Sinners dominance over him?Watching tennis channel this morning - med’s comments after the match revealed he barely played much in the offseason after Turin. He and his wife welcomed a baby girl and then spent time with family with little practice.
Med was looking burnt out after us open last year. It’s getting worse to start 2025 on court. He was dealing with shoulder issues most of 2024.
You see him stringing rackets that consist of Poly/gut, gut/poly, razor code full. Razor soft full. Confidence is at an all time low in his game, especially when you’ve spent over a year changing string setups every tournament.
Anyone who watched sinner early on saw raw potential. But idk what this has to do with the current slump/potential decline of medvedev’s play?You think he expected Sinners dominance over him?
He doesn’t play confident against Sinner anymorAnyone who watched sinner early on saw raw potential. But idk what this has to do with the current slump/potential decline of medvedev’s play?
Most of daniils losses LY came at the hands of sinner or alcaraz deep into tournaments.
Now it’s early in tourneys.
More so against anyone.He doesn’t play confident against Sinner anymor
