The start of the end of the Big 3 (or 4 if you're Mainad)

[megamind]

Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, they cling to the real or the gods or love.

Let the shakeout begin.

Im hoping for many upsets in the following months.

 

[megamind]

I guess what im hoping for is
a) Djokovic not to win Cincy and US Open. (And preferrably not Exhibiton King Thiem as he's been annoying during the break)
b) Nadal and Djokovic not to win French (im a big Nadal fan, but I'd be ok withit, if it makes way for new talent)
c) Big 3 to never win another Slam (they've ruled the tennis world for far too long)

i think this break was just the thing Next Gen (or even Didnt Quite Happen Gen) needed to break thru

It has begun, Novak just withdrew from doubles with a neck injury

The unexpected happens in that realm though.

The lockdown causes rustiness for all players, cancelling out the fact that Murray went for a very long time with no matches.

He has played 2 battles of the brits and has no first round bye due to low ranking. In the chaos of rustiness, he climbs the ladder to win the US Open.

 

[Mainad]

Never knew I was part of the Big 4.

Out of interest, who are the other 3?

I guess you are Murray after all.

 

[tennis_pro]

It's sad that they needed to get old (Nadal, Djokovic, Wawrinka) or really old (Federer) or so injured that they can't move (Murray) for the young players to finally start doing something.

 

[King No1e]

To be fair, the globalist deep state wouldn't have picked her as their puppet if she could think for herself without a script.

/s, I'm guessing she just didn't feel like taking a shot at Trump right then and there. Fair enough.

OP mentioned me, not Murray.

Per usual team nexgen drops the ball... sasha, FAA, shapo, Fritz, Tiafoe, Rublev out with exo-king Timmy flaming out 2 and 1. SMH

[megamind]

so matteo lost, another NextGener bites the dust

might need Maude to delete it

Djokovic will most likely win Cincy and USO. However there’s a chance somebody new will win, but come on. Medvedev is our New Hope, our Luke Skywalker to the Fedalovic Empire.

There is no way that Djokovic will win "Cincinnati" and the Open in such a short time.
At 33, he should prioritize the golden prize.

Like so many believe of Timmy, you think he should tank it so he can grab the US Open?

Do you think he can win 12 consecutive matches in 3 weeks at his age?

 

[Deleted member 768841]

Maybe...

 

[megamind]

Tsitsipas, Medvedev, and Opelka still have a chance

 

[Sudacafan]

The only player who I was rooting for and won in today’s session was Tsitsipas.

 

[Azure]

 

[James P]

Tsitsipas looks pretty focused. Didn't see Meddy's match, but did see Tsitsipas play and it was pretty decent.

 

[FRV3]

Can't underestimate how hard it is to beat a serve bot when everyone is rusty. The first serve does not go away with lack of practice, it's like riding a bike. As long as you remember the key parts of the motion.

Not that you are doing that, I mean we should pretty impressed.

 

[Nole_King]

I guess you are Murray after all.

No. Its Judy actually. Mother's love knows no bounds

 

[megamind]

so far this thread has been fail

i still hope for a good US Open result!

Hasn’t Djokovic won 22 matches in row and Nadal is holder plus huge favourite for RG. They are nowhere near finished dominating. The most likely result after the AO 21 is Djokovic on 19 slams and Nadal on 20

I can hope for NextGen to rebirth themselves

 

[DjokoLand]

ROFL!!!

Nadal isn’t the huge favourite for RG tell me who is then ?

 

[StrongRule]

Nadal isn’t the huge favourite for RG tell me who is then ?

Djokovic of course. He is not just the huge favorite, he is a lock for the title.

 

[tudwell]

They don’t call it the Djokovic Open for nothing!

 

[megamind]

IT HAS BEGUN

 

[Rago]

There never was a Big4.

P.S. Murray has to be one of the most boring multi slam winners of all time.

Lol...like I could care less what that guy thinks.

 

[-NN-]

Fantastic thread title. The Big Three + One aren't remotely on their last legs. Djoker and Nadal will still win 20+ Slams.

Of course, + 1 and Federer are done.

[megamind]

Today is the day! Bye bye Big 3!!!!

 

[megamind]

Well then, we had a start with a Thiem victory at the US Open

Still not quite there yet tho

Big 3's reign continues

 

[Meles]

Not a bad call, but ultimately Real Slam caliber OP.

what if big 3 never wins another non-French Open?

 

[megamind]

bumping this thread because big 3 couldn't win WTF

 

[Sudacafan]

what if big 3 never wins another non-French Open?

Undisputed Nadal GOAT?

 

[megamind]

Undisputed Nadal GOAT?

There is no point to continue the French Open

After Nadal retires, every future potential winner would win it under the understanding "congrats, but you're not as good as Rafa on clay"

Therefore, it is best for the mental health of such players that we retire the tournament, no?

RG should be discontinued.
New Philippe Chatrier stadium should be used for rock & pop concerts of Genesis and Supertramp after the pandemic ends with mandatory vaccination.

I just want it incredibly even next year like tour finals, do I ask too much?
