Ok. I bet you will break this promise though let's see how long we can keep up not thread derailing for.I believe we must stay on topic. Sweet Pea in the boxing thread.

have you considered the possibility of a favorable bias towards left-handed players?Something in their playing style and character that is interesting. So for me, that's players like Muster, Nadal, Hewitt, Ivanisevic, Safin, Mecir, Vilas, Connors etc. Muster and Nadal have the best playing style and the fight of a gladiator. Ivanisevic and Safin have the incredibly entertaining multi-layered personality with the temperament meltdowns and racquet smashes while being extremely talented. Hewitt has an incredible fight, smooth groundstroke ability, and loves a scrap.
Seles on the women's side too. As a kid, I could tell there was something about her that was very different from the norm, how she combined an easy going, giggly personality (very expected of a friendly teenage girl) with a strong love of tennis and a ruthless hunger to compete and win (which was more like a ruthless men's champion). Graf, by contrast, was bought up and built to be a tennis champion, and had the air of a soldier doing her duty, but there also seemed to be an underlying sadness and even loneliness to Graf at times. For Seles, it was much more an internal love of tennis and love of competing.
Instead, Fed came back in 2021, got wiped out by some Polish guy and finished career bageled at his favourite tournament...Rog crying isn't cringe. He is maximally human and doesn't hide it
Borg was so cool, a total iceman...underneath it all he was so insecure he walked away at 26 because he couldn't stand not to be absolutely dominant...then deluded himself into coming back with a wood racquet in the 80s like a total fool
Imagine Fed retired after Wimbledon 2008 and then comes back in 2019 and just gets wiped out by mugs. THAT would be cringe.

No, but Federer's was terrible too. He was always just prolonging his end fooling with his fans hopes. Nadal is doing the same to his fans right now. Hope Novak won't do that to his fans when it's his turn...You seriously think Borg's comeback was better than the way Federer finished his career?
Borg's comeback at 1991 Monte Carlo was bizarre. Borg used a wooden racquet, had an 80-year-old karate expert from Wales as his coach and was outplayed by Arrese.So why are you bringing up Fed? Just to dump on him? Cool story bro.
Borg stayed away too long, didn't win a single match in his comeback. It was a total clown show.
Not so stylish, but I mellowed with time to this.
You brought Fed, as bright example, go back and see, I just noticed that he is not, imoSo why are you bringing up Fed? Just to dump on him? Cool story bro.
