Looks like Novax' "hamstring strain" is standing up to the pressure of Grand Slam Tennis.

Guy should get a gig in the WWE after his Tennis career is over. He'd make a great heel.

This is why I can't get excited about Novak's dominance the last 3-4 years. He's playing against no one.
Yeh ultimately I'm team Federer..still devo he didnt win that Wimbledon final jn 2019(absolutely should have)was fairly close to 38 years old then, Novak just 32 I think.

Great to see Novax “strained hammy” hold up. He’s just demolishing his opponents. Imagine how good he’d be if he was “FIT”.

Not called the Djoker for no reason.

Female game is very poor at the moment.

Tsitsipas vs Djokovich rematch might go 4 sets but I think Novak is still a class above. Novak beat him at the Roland Garos on his least favourite surface so here it is very unlikely Tsitsipas can pull it off.

I've just booted out my dinner guests in time to watch Team Kinky. Must admit I haven't seen any of the AO up to this point.

The Greek God is about to announce himself on the world stage.
I'd love to see that. I'm expecting Novak tonight win with the way he's playing but I'll be watching and hoping it's a good match.

Can't think of one reason to watch women's tennis..so i don't.

I may watch Djokovic likely win(again), if I do it will be partly because I'm actually hoping Margot Robbie turns up... :tearsofjoy: that could fire the big Greek up, this is his first Slam final outside of that French Open.

Tsitsipas is obviously already motivated to win his first slam but Novak gave him extra motivation.. The arrogant bastard asked if Tsitsipas was playing in his first slam final and the reporter corrected him and said you played him in the final at the French Open and it was only a year and a half ago.. Plus it went to 5 sets.. Talk about disrespect!

Yeh, but nowhere near as bad as Monica Seles who started all the screaming a number of decades ago. Tennis Officials should’ve stopped it then, but it has been allowed to fester and is tantamount to cheating.

Not all players do it in both men’s and women’s, but officials tell the crowd to remain quiet while players are screaming like someone is being attacked.

I tend to agree about watching women’s tennis, but I flicked over to see the score and it was near the end and Sabalenka nearly choked again. Lost 3 Match Points before finally winning on the 4th match point to win her 1st major.

I’ve only been interested when an Aussie women is playing i.e. Ash Barty.

Funny thing, women fight for equality and have succeeded in getting equal pay to the men’s yet the level between the two are light years and the women only play 3 sets NOT five. No wonder so many sportsmen are having sex changes to play in women’s sports. Easy $$$$$.
