Connors, McEnroe, Borg, and Lendl were a pretty good Big 4 back in the day and I was there for pretty much all of that reign as well.

Evert vs Navratilova was pretty good as far as the WTA rivalries go.

These are the kind of posts that put a smile on my face and why this place is an sanctuary in a world unfortunately filled with toxicity.

These modern rackets will never catch on, give me wooden rackets or give me death! And how come men don't play in dress shoes and sweater vests anymore or women play in full length dresses with a hat

So Ruusuvuori just defends Miami points every year. I guess Miami keeps him in the top 100

He reminds me a lot of Jannik Sinner, it's just that Sinner has more power and consistency. Emil is getting better every year though and wouldn't be surprised to see him be a mainstay in the top 50 on tour.

Well, with the rain coming down in Miami yet again, it provides the chance to watch Gabriel Diallo in France. Here's the link if interested:

Fritz isn't even playing badly, it's just that Charlie is that darn good.

Charlie out-aced Fritz and committed one single UE? Are serve and rally tolerance disappearing as “weaknesses” in real time?

Sinner has been pretty good this year, but I don't give him much hope at taking a set off Carlitos at this event.....Scary to think this is how he's going now and we are only just coming up on clay season and his best surface.

I'm not convinced he's ready to win a slam on grass yet, but he's certainly handling these slower hard courts with ease.
