Turned it around for another straight sets win :mjgrin:

Would like to see more of Clara Tauson; showed some legit potential and she got a decent body on her :ehh:

I remember watching this in real time. Tuning in to watch Sampras walk through another player only to witness what was not known at the time the future legend take him out. Unfortunately Fed then lost to Henman off all fukking people after but the following year he came through and crushed the buildings and never stopped.....Until Nadal

From this comment, I now get why people have some animosity towards Federer. He was the first player that ended the era for American tennis, and people are still salty about it. Nadal and Djokovic never had to take those lumps, so they are received better by the general public

Naomi Osaka straight up quit :francis:

Not sure she's mentally ready to win another grand slam ever again. Hope I could be wrong though

Didn't know there were salty people towards Fed. I thought everyone loved him and his style of play. Sampras was coming to an end of his era anyway

I said American Tennis, not Sampras specifically.

And you're being obtuse on the animosity towards Federer. The "Federer's dominant run was in a weak era" is a definite slight comment on him

You said it yourself with your "..... until Nadal" comment
