Tennis 2024

[maccavennie]

Insane how many unforced errors he's had so far. Has got himself into some great situations as well.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Too much for Draper in the end but he's made his mark. Stardom will surely follow.

Sabalenka takes the first set in the final. Big strong lady. Reckon she grinds Pegula down. Battle of the first serve %'s.

Alfie Hewett takes silver in the mens solo tennis. Fair play.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Double fault gifts the first break of the second set. Pegula disintegrating. win 69% first serve down to 65%.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Pegula breaks to lead 4-3 from 0-3 down. Kiss of death in action.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Straight sets, 7-5 7-5. Sabalenka wins. 23 runner up, 24 champion.

Boring fact - the Pegula/Navarro semi-final was the first one where the players were both daughters of billionaires.

After golf because of the longevity I reckon tennis is the hot ticket in sport. Follow the summer around the planet, and play against other perfect physical specimens and get paid millions and endorsements in the tens of millions for the privilege. Retire at 30, have a family, raise the next generation. What a life.

Sabalenka is a great player no doubt. However I can't get past the loud screeching from her on every point. Makes me root against he every time she plays.

 

[gonetomorrow]

First set to Sinner. He's much stronger than the American.

 

[Wizard]

Fritz gets a break in the 3rd. Can’t see him winning the match but wouldn’t mind him getting a set

 

[Rita_Poon]
