Wait a sec, I was told if your body was finely tuned for athletic competition that you wouldn't need to take the vaccine. Isn't that right Oikos?

I don't know why but this kind of looks like a movie about Shapo's comeback tournament at the French Open 2036.

We may have seen the last competitive match of both Serena Williams and Roger Federer......

I think (hope) we'll see Fed again, he'll hopefully be back at the Aussie Open in 2022. As for Serena, I know she's trying to get to 24, but as each grand slam goes by, she has to realize it's not going to happen and she has nothing left to prove.

I read a bit about the Muller-Weiss syndrome Rafa has been dealing with the past 16 years, and it's kind of a miracle he's had a successful tennis career at all, never mind a goat level one. he was never going to stave it off forever, but it must have been a combination of age and the jerky nature of the tour on covid that accelerated the problem.

long ago I had thought that Roger's retirement would eventually be due to his back issues, and Rafa would be gone even earlier with busted knees. this means I'm totally unreliable for predictions, but I have this strange feeling that Djoker will finish with either > 25 majors (healthy for next few years), or exactly 20 (injury nobody knew about), nothing in between.

Schnur is already out thanks to Gunneswaran 6-4 7-6(5) and Diez is down 6-3 4-1 to Krueger.

Keep an eye on the young Danish kid Holger Rune, he just won his opening round qualifying match against Lukas Lacko and he's had some impressive wins on the ATP tour this season.
