Gemmill 44900 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 When you're so much of a conspiracy theorist that you completely misinterpret the Wimbledon crowd. What a fucking helmet this bloke is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44900 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Covid got people three ways. Some people died from it, some people got long covid or other permanent damage to their bodies, and some people had their brains completely fucking melted by online conspiracies about covid. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredibly talented but ultimately failing to hide the homelander level of narcissism he suffers from. He can't understand why he doen't get the respect Federer and Nadal do despite now being more successful. Let's see; a history of faking injuries, suspicious time-outs, tantrums paired with a sense of entitlement and shady off the field antics such as the vaccine debacle and hanging out with questionable Serb politicians. He's a contemptible prick, fair enough that he's made it work for his career. But then you can't really demand that people like you for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think he’s the undisputed greatest men’s player though. I kind of feel for him at times. But for someone who is clearly not stupid he comes out with some stupid shit. I do love watching him play though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4156 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (edited) I loved watching him when he first came onto the scene, played great tennis chasing down everything and smashing the ball hard, also had a good sense of humor. Let it all get to his head eventually sadly. Can't argue against him as the greatest statistically. I think there's one thing about Nadal that's always worth mentioning in this discussion. He bested Federer in his absolute prime at Wimbledon when he was near untouchable. Beaten Novak on hard courts too when at his best. Those two couldn't get anywhere close to laying a finger on prime French Open Rafa though, I mean often they were ridiculously one sided affairs that you'd never associate with these games. That always stands out for me. Edited July 10 by aimaad22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35095 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 (edited) Incredible achievement by Djokovic to make the final only a few weeks after knee surgery. I think he’ll keep going as long as he thinks he has a chance of winning majors. But bar the bit at the end of the third set, when his first serve went missing, Alcaraz was on a different plane. It wasn’t even close until that point Edited July 14 by Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 For the past 20 years or so I've regularly put in for the ticket ballot for Wimbledon and got the square root of fuck all back.
