Kyrgios v Djokovic final, the 2 GOATs

You don't have a clue what you are talking about. Most of Dickovics' wins have been lucky, or handed to him on a plate, plus he's the biggest tosser in sport. And your saying Kyrgios is a GOAT. LOL. He has never appeared in a grand slam semi-final!

 

[neil999]

No idea

Could they not make a rule that if a player is unable to fulfil the fixture then the eliminated opponent gets to take that persons place instead?

I know these things are rare instances but if Djokovic or Norrie lost in the final would they not have a valid argument that Kyrgios had an unfair advantage especially when these tournaments are played in such a short space of time and you have very little time to rest inbetween matches in a very physically demanding sport.

You'd then complain it was unfair a loser got to get to the next round lol

Dickovic, I liked that one.

I like them both, tennis is crap, but I’ll watch them 2.

Mens final done in three, either Djok digs in and grinds Kyrgi into dust and he explodes or the Aussie turns up playing tennis from the gods and channels his inner Federer. Very tough pick.

Ons for the ladies still!

Bit of a farce that. Should have withdrew yesterday and let his opponent play the semi final.

That's not sport though is it? You play to the last and hopefully it's an injury that can be managed afterwards.

Nadal won't be beating Djock at Wimbledon while he has a hole in his arse. In fact, I'll bet you any price you want he won't beat him ever again in any slam bar Roland Garros.

Given how Djokovic played in the quarters I think Nadal would have fancied his chances. Of course on grass Novak should win but I wouldn't immediately say it's going to be straightforward, especially at the US open that is a slower court. That's if Djokovic is allowed to play Australia and the US given his vaccine status.

Could they not make a rule that if a player is unable to fulfil the fixture then the eliminated opponent gets to take that persons place instead?

Getting a walkover has always been the way in tennis, Norrie could slip and fall in the first game of the match and that would be a win to Novak without playing a minute. It's just what it is.

mixed doubles with Murray jnr

Being a pedantic person that I am, don't you mean Murray senior?

Got my 80p punnet of strawberries at the ready and once I've dropped my daughter off for school I shall sit and wait patiently for 4 and a half hours waiting for Norrie.

Do you know what I love most about Wimbledon, how many knobheads manage to get tickets.

When a great rally is taking place and people gasp with excitement, you get a load of other people telling the crowd to "shush" as if the gasps will put the tennis players off. But by the time the person doing the "shushing" has finished, the players have already had another 2 shots each.

So, if you are one of the people attending and start doing the "shushing", SHUT UP YOU MASSIVE KNOBHEAD!!! Your not their coach, mum or dad or teacher and they aren't taking an exam of any sort. Let people gasp in excitement and stop being such a tedious boring meff.

When it’s over?

 

[maccavennie]

When it’s over?

Would love to do a knee slide right across the turf, chuck a blue flare into the Royal Box and then offer Patrick Viera a straightener, whilst not dropping a crumb of my half time Pukka Pie

Now that would be worth watching but imagine the shushing.

 

[WA Toffee]

So kyrgios has an unfair advantage now with extra rest over his opponent in the final right?

wrong. He has an advantage but it is not unfair

 

[davek]

It's been the poorest quality Wimbledon for years. That's down to the decision by that club to discriminate against Russian and Belorussian players and the boycott by others who dropped out of the event because it has no ranking points.

It would serve them right if the they were demoted to the status of a Masters tournament from a Grand Slam event for maybe a 5 year period.

The players' unions should come down hard on Wimbledon.

Some idiots calling for Fritz to be handed a lucky loser spot!

Unreal.

Like when manchester united dipped out of the fa cup, should have been made to start again playing dominos at the dog n duck and build back up from there. How very dare they!

It's undeniable that without Medvedev Wimbledon have been left with a dead semi final spot too.

They pay for that today big time with coverage of one of the great events of any GS tournament gone completely.

Even in the women's event a Russian - to all intents and purposes - has come through to be firm favourite to lift the title. Now they look a joke too.

It's been a disastrous decision by the Wing Commodores (ret) of the Wimbledon committee to cravenly follow their own Tory Government's propaganda line.
