Zverev asked about toweling

[True Fanerer]

"I'm probably the wrong person to ask," he told a news conference at London's O2 Arena."

"I think I've taken the towel once or twice this year, once in Acapulco and once in Washington when it was like 120 degrees and when it was 150 percent humidity."

"Maybe need to ask the Next Gen guys. I mean (Frances) Tiafoe takes the towel after every point and (Stefanos) Tsitsipas takes the towel after an ace or double fault."

LOL

So ego boy doesn't consider himself "next gen". He really believes he's already an established ATG.

What an arse.

Shady but on point!

He might be next gen as far as age goes, but like it or not, he's been top 5 in the world for a long time, so in my opinion, I'd say he is established enough to not be considered in the "next" generation of players.

I think I am the only player who carries a handkerchief. I keep it in my right pocket and put balls in my left pocket. I will put it out to dab away some sweat. Occasionally, I open it and fold it the other way to use the other side. I don't use a towel.

But then I try not to exert myself too much so the pros cannot use the same scheme.

 

[tennis4me]

This toweling discussion reminded me of how a few players like Baghdatis used to use his own shirt to towel off. Nishikori tends to do that a lot too.

Wrt to Zverev, it does sound like he's already an ATG.

Mischa, you're a good brother.

Towels lovers better hate.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

I am waiting for somebody to post the image of Zedzilla going for the towel 5 times in the same game. Give it to us, come on.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Fight the towel .

Could be he has already joined the ilerminaty. Z got two triangles.
Maybe all his evilness comes from the devil and some bankers somewhere hiding gold and lots of money.

Where is paranoidandroid when you need him?

Getting Zverev a towel.

 

[Standaa]

Anyone but Street.

 

[Hamnavoe]

How dare Zverev imply he isn't part of the Next Gen. Somebody call an exorcist

I'm trying to lure him back to TTW

He's got enough gold already.

Yeah, he got no clue what he is talking about.

we know though.

You know how these evil people are.
Always want more.
Here from my sofa I know pretty much everything about pro tennis. WTF does he think he is. Only number 5 in the world.

 

[nedflanders]

he is right

 

[Poisoned Slice]

They know he is right. The AntiZedspecialoneZedzilla cult has no response to this. Only name calling.

Hey, more emojis.

Happy Devil LOL.

I wish someone on here was actually amusing, even the attempt at ridicule is just pathetic.

The lameness makes me sad.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Yeah, more smiley faces ftw. Praise Zedzilla for this moment.

 

[TheGhostOfAgassi]

Fight the towel .

This photo was taken before the ilerminaty meeting. Must be., because thats how I feel. That cross will be turned upside down.

 

[Ann]

Since when did Zverev develop such a following or was it because it's me that made the post? Please let me know so I can happily make more anti-Zverev comments in the future and put the butthurt on ignore.

Things like that make me happy.

No responses so I guess it was just cause it was me. Buh-bye slice and devil.

Oh and Zverev sucks and I hope you people realize this was a dumbass thread about a towel.

The right man for the job.

Talk about saving tennis.

I like Tsitsipas and I still hate Zverev but I cleaned up the board a little with ignores. It's all good.

TBH I'm not really a fan of either unless they stop Djokodal and then I'm jumping on the wagon out of pure selfishness.

I get tired of getting whiplash from emotional 12 year olds. This is why I use ignore so judiciously - that way when the off-board what'sapp groups decide on a single mind-set I don't have to wonder why the wind changed directions. I'm already ignoring it.

 

[Standaa]

And tennis will die with Roger..

 

[BeatlesFan]

"Maybe need to ask the Next Gen guys. I mean (Frances) Tiafoe takes the towel after every point and (Stefanos) Tsitsipas takes the towel after an ace or double fault."

Nadal takes the towel possibly more than any other player but he doesn't dare mention him, so he picks on two guys who have won 2 events in their careers. Murray and Shapovalov are two other really bad offenders of taking the towel endlessly.

Zverev is such a jerk.

Try not to let it bother you. Really just busting b**** most of the time.

Would have been no sense mentioning Nadal as he was asked regarding what they did in Milano.

"This week at the Next Gen Finals in Milan, players have been forced to fetch their own towels from boxes stationed in the corners of the court and while it might be a shock to the system for some, Zverev suggests it is about time."

If you bothered to read the article....

Not only you but the other two winers as well.
He was adressing this to the Nextgens because thats what it was about
He said nothing about not being a Nextgen.

It doesn't bother me as in I take it personally, it bothers me because it's tedious and obnoxious and I'm too old for tedious and obnoxious. Now I don't see it. It's all good.
