That's an incredibly tough draw for Rafa, if he does go all the way, it will certainly be well earned.

I thought they were going to rebalance the draw? too late?


Who gets out of Quarter 1 to make the semifinals. The favorite might be Alcaraz

Yeah, once the order of play is announced for day 1, it's too late to reshuffle the draw. The order of play came out a few hours before the judges decision.

Speaking of Alcaraz, he has an interesting match against Chilean-Canadian Alejandro Tabilo who was born in Toronto and represented Canada until 2018 when he decided to play internationally for Chile. Tabilo played well at the ATP Cup and while I fully expect Alcaraz to advance, it will be a tough match.

If Rafa doesn't win, I wouldn't mind Alcaraz or Felix/Shapo

Only one of the 60 slams won by the big 3 did someone have to beat 4 straight top 10 players......... Federer 2017 AO

That was Roger's first defeat of Nadal in a slam final in a decade. Rafa was up a break at 3-1 in set 5 and Fed rolled off five straight games to take the title.

What a deplorable human being. Not a shock that Serbia has one of the lowest vax rates in Europe because of this Dbag.

Considering I guess Serbia doesn't have anything else to be proud of they made Novax the Serbian God. Terrible.

And yes Novax Sr, him getting booted out of Oz is the same thing as Jesus Christ getting crucified! lol

I wonder how this affects Novax’s ability to play in other countries in the next few months.

The French Sports Minister already has stated they will let Novax play in the French.

I can see another waterboarding torture session for Novax coming up in a few months...

For all the degenerate and inveterate gamblers out there...

It’s not like the French to give up so easily.

I was having a nice Sunday watching football until I read that post

Australia has banned Novak for 3 years! Wow that is nuts and ruins his chances of ever getting 10 AO titles.

[GirlySports]

I'll take any bets that Djokovic plays in the 2023 AO

[Nadal Fan]

Shapo about to play, he has a huge opportunity here, I think he can take out Zerev.

Shapo double-faults and is broken to start the match - Nowhere to go but up.
