Never heard of you. Must be new. Sound feisty too.hopkinb said:You have totally missed the point. I don't make a point of being rude to people. I have been here a long time, I have very rarely been rude to anyone.
Explain why you are more British than someone else who is British, and why it matters.
And as such, your opinion counts for censored all.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -

I'm shoite at tennis. More in line with Björn Borg's retirement at 26 to sit in his pants sniffing coke, watching pron and hiring hookers.0

Berrettini struck down with nerves. Too easy for Djokovic. He might relax when he’s two sets behind and virtually over.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0

Yeah. Djokovic is at his best when he's two sets down. To be honest I would like to see Berrettini win. I've never been a fan of his Djokovic.seanoconn said:Berrettini struck down with nerves. Too easy for Djokovic. He might relax when he’s two sets behind and virtually over.

Big ask for any player to win a grand slam final at the first attempt. Finals experience at this level is invaluable.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0

Yep, definitely. I guess it proves it with the amount the big three have won it.seanoconn said:Big ask for any player to win a grand slam final at the first attempt. Finals experience at this level is invaluable.

Poor quality final but nice to see a bit of support for Djokovic for a change.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0

Crowd members shouting out between points is definitely one for the annoyances thread.0

There's always the one who has to have a last shout just as everyone else has quietened down and a player is about to serve. I'm guessing they don't go along to many tennis tournaments - similar to the idiots that have started turning up at rugby just to get on TV and who boo the opposition goal kicker.

Don’t get too many chavs at Wimbledon pross. Plenty of d!ck heads in every social group. Shouting out between points isn’t new, it’s down to the umpire to get the crowd under control.Pross said:

I'd say there are plenty of them if you use the original definition. Not as many as you get at Royal Ascot though.seanoconn said:

They should come up with a name for when someone wins all four grand slams in a year.0

Ok, I bite. Winning all 4 of Oz, French, Wimblebum and US equals a grand slam.
Otherwise winning one is erm, winning one.0 -
Why would you call it Wimblebum? Especially when Scott Murray has won it twice and now lives in Surrey. Honestly, you're such bloody idiot.orraloon said:Ok, I bite. Winning all 4 of Oz, French, Wimblebum and US equals a grand slam.

I think the best ever at this point was and still is Novak Djokovic, this bad dude has beaten Nadal on Nadal's preferred surface. But this subject would be argumentative since some will argue that Federer is the better player, but records say that when Djokovic played Federer and Nadal one on one, Djokovic wins more times than not against them, the score against is Federer is 27 to 23, Federer lost 27 times to Djokovic; and he beat Nadal 30 to 28; so just on that alone shows that Djokovic is the better player, not by much, but the better player nonetheless.
However the ones to watch for the up and coming new guard is Dominc Thiem, Alexander Zverev, and especially Stefanos Tsitsipas. They stand a very good chance to take over as the leaders for the new guard coming it that will replace the old guards of tennis. Be interesting to see if any of them can better Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal in the long term for titles won.0 -
Agree about Djokovic. As for the ‘new’ guard, Dominic Thiem is 28 years old, Zverev 24 and has been on the tour for 8 years! Tsitsipas is doing a great job of blowing his career with his stupid antics, long toilet breaks, snatching towels angrily from ball girls and hitting his dad with his smashed tennis racket 😂 the crowd have started to enjoy booing him, which might be difficult to over come. Medvedev is the best of the bunch but none of them will come remotely close to the big three.froze said:I think the best ever at this point was and still is Novak Djokovic, this bad dude has beaten Nadal on Nadal's preferred surface.

Some people might notice she’s a good looking girl, not me of course, I won’t notice till she’s 21. Will certainly help with sponsorship.Stevo_666 said:
