Posting the modern weak era stats now too, huh.

Might as well put Rafa the undefeated in his own category

This is actually a really embarrassing stat, to be quite honest. It’s pretty telling.

What a loser, couldn't even win all of his matches.
vive le beau jeu !

are there some serious studies about this ?social media destroyed the next gen. Tsitsipas should vlog less and Kyrgios should stop twatting
i think it's indeed one of the factors behind the absolute and unprecedented failure of these so-called 'next gen(s)' (sorry @Meles )
(i have to confess i despise social media, though)
still, do other sports suffer a similar sad fate ?
i mean, in cycling young pros appear to enjoy lots of success these days (despite cycling traditionnaly rewarding old guys, when compared to other sports)... but i guess the context is different as they're part of a team (which helps/forces them to stay focused?) and maybe the 'inner outdoor' nature of cycling tends to keep you away from 'the grid'?
other sports, i have no idea......

True signs of a very weak young generation.
It must lower the credentials of the great players who have won slams over the past few years. Who’s won the most slams from 2015 onwards, Lew - do you have those stats?

And just in time to save the day
Still only 20 years old with more talent in one finger than you know who.

How much glue was holding down Agassi's wig in that shot?

What signs of weak generation? They may lose to Big3 just because Big3 are better.

A record of 2-34, as posted by you earlier in this thread.

As impressive as it looks, it's alarming that these youngsters cannot overthrow the players who, even though ATGs, have passed their 30th birthdays (not to mention Federer who will be 40 in two years). The state of men's tennis doesn't look promising at all.

Why could not be just the sign that the Big3 are too good?
If anything, tell me that these next gen are not consistent against the rest of the field. This would make sense.

like Tsitsipas or zverev (who by the way they both are sore losers & you guys should know this)
They should be toppling older men at this point. They are not weak like people claim but the lack of ability relatively has been visible in BO5. Even when the big 3 are not playing amazing they seem to scrape through.
