Fantastisches Finale!Rublev vs SonegoAT - Wien final.
I do not see ANY of Rublev, Tsitsipas, Shapovalov, Sinner, Alliasime, Medvedev, Berretini, Thiem* - or any of that overhyped generation ever winning Slams.
None of them have any offensive weapons, they're all just pushers.
The next guy with the firepower to actually win a Slam probably hasn't even been born yet.
*And yes, Thiem still hasn't won a proper Slam, that USO doesn't count - it was a joke and everyone knows it.
I’m going to see you when he wins his first slam lol, he’s already amounted to being a good player and has put up many good fights.I'm happy to write off a 19 year old; Sinner will amount to nothing.
Dude is consistent af lately, and the wins are starting to rack up. Definitely expecting him to win a slam in the next few years (if it even takes that long). He was scary good against Thiem yesterday
i hope not. can't stand his annoying grunting
Med's run was much better though.saying shapo is a pusher is a head scratcher as well but idk
i like rublev, this run reminds me of meds run last yr
Rublev is really not that good. Just because he's winning now, doesn't mean he's overall a good player to win some slams. He's winning now because all the good players have had their fill and are resting or won enough that they don't need to play all these smaller tournaments. He doesn't win enough against the top 8 players. He loses to a lot of lower ranked players as well randomly. Dan Evans, Hurkacz. You won't win slams if these guys are standing in your way, let alone a Medvedev. If you have problems with these guys, don't even think you will have much chance against a Djokovic who isn't in tank mode. When Djoker isn't tanking, you're going to get steamrolled under serbian tiger.

Everyone is boring to youNo chance. One of the most one dimensional players of all time. So boring.
100% get why you’re skeptical, so many hyped players who ain’t dun nuttin. I’ve watched a lot of his matches and I’m feeling he is for real and this isn’t just a hot streak. He’s always been a great ball striker but it’s all looking grooved and reliable now. Mentally way more mature.
Not saying hes going to win a slam just yet but expect him to carry on winning 500’s, win a 1000 and make a slam semi soon.
I couldn't have said it better.Rublev beat a "lucky loser" in the finals that hasn't posted any big victories besides a tanked out Djokovic who wants to go on holidays. Rublev grunts and tries to go all out on every ball, but you can't fernando gonzalez the ball and think that you'll get GS results. You'll get Fernando Gonzalez results. Gonzalez was the same around the top 6-8, made a finals appearance. But like Rublev, once you get into the late stages of a slam, the really good players don't care how hard you grunt or try to rocket the ball. They have tactics that will disjoint your game and throw you off. And frankly, guys like Djokovic aren't really bothered by his hard flat shots. If everybody gets knocked out early like Kevin Anderson's USO grandslam run, then maybe rublev will get lucky.
This guy is nothing special. It's not about hitting the ball hard (a la Jerzy Jancovicz). The better players have a much more smooth relaxed style. You don't hear Fed grunt and slam the ball on his groundies, and djokovic is more of a medium paced guy with just excellent defense and ball placement. Rublev does well during this tournament and you all jump on his band wagon. How about letting someone prove you by 1 solid year of constant results.
To people who worship servebot tennis, every player who isn't an ace-machine is a pusher.Tsitsipas a "pusher"?

I bet you don’t believe in a round earth, evolution and global warming either. You can believe these measurements actually made at tournaments or your lying eyes. I bet you haven’t even watched these players in person and are basing your ‘judgment’ by watching tennis on TV. If you watch them live in person from close range, you would absolutely believe these measurements.This chart is so stupid. Wawrinka and Gasquet hit more top spin than Nadal?
I don't need a chart to see what I can see. Rublev isn't known for spin, he hits the ball pretty flat.
No, it indicates that Gasquet and Wawrinka hit with more topspin than Nadal *on the backhand*, as is often the case with most 1HBHsThis chart is so stupid. Wawrinka and Gasquet hit more top spin than Nadal?

He ain’t janowizc. Worst case scenario for Rublev is a few big matches go against him, he loses intensity/confidence whatever, drops to 10-20 and stays there perpetually. Mindless ball bashing keeps him there. I don’t see that happening but we’ll see.Jerzy Jancovicz was one of the most over hyped modern players. But he did prove himself by beating Djokovic, Nadal and maybe even murray all in one tournament. But where is he now? A phantom. People need to pare down their expectations because it reminds me of a 15 year old kid who dates some girl then thinks that that girl will be his wife for 80 years.

Dunning-Kruger Effect
The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people wrongly overestimate their knowledge or ability in a specific area. This tends to occur because a lack of self-awareness prevents them from accurately assessing their own skills.www.psychologytoday.com

He will win many many many...Slams? You mean he will win more than one!
