@mapletom mercy. That has to be twenty years

 

yup, need a gen Z version of Andre Agassi to show up.  Flops hair around, listens to bad trap music w clownishly large head phones, takes winnings in crypto.  Gets an exhibition match on the WH lawn.  Nuff said.  

 

I’d prefer a guy who drank Schlitz, smoked heaters while walking into a match, and was completely out of shape. Wore NB grillers to play in.  Took notes on his opponent in a little notebook he carried around. Had a nice horseshoe male-pattern baldness look going at 25.  

 

Sounds like you were a fan of Djoko

Andy Roddick was the last American male to win a slam but really it’s Pete Sampras.  Been too long.  

 

American or not, I loved watching Federer.

Grace personified.

Djokovic dropped the first set to some nobody American.  He’s prob just a top 25 guy now.  

Too bad the Big Three existed during a lull in US interest.  It was kinda like having Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, and Barry Bonds all playing in the same era and meeting in the playoffs/ WS year after year. 

To be fair, I didn’t start watching tennis until about three years after I got married.  😀🔫🎾

Except Djoko is the Babe Ruth of the bunch. Yea, at 38, nobody expects him to dominate like he used to.

Watching Shelton.  Not impressed. He's got a big serve, but his groundstrokes are erratic and his backhand is 75% slice.  

Alcarez will pummel him.

Dude was so talented, but was a nutcase.
