Tennis Talk 2022: Vol 22 (Wimbledon)

"You relax at 40-0. Why do you stop?" It is pathetic

well & truly bokked him,didn't I?

Yeah

More obscenities. Going to get a point penalty pretty soon.

NK's his own worst enemy
STFU & channel ur frustration into ur play..WAC

All very predictable, which suits me fine from a betting point of view.

An absolute clown, p ussy & bottler.

I would walk out if I was in his box. Bunch of nodding dogs

Swearing now but ignored by umpire.

no wonder Nick sat the covid era out. No crowds allowed, he'd be lost without having his team cheer him after EVERY point.

How does he get all these supporters ?

I wonder if Nick is like this in bed. Girl moans for a bit, then stops and he gets all insecure and starts shouting at her. WHY DID YOU STOP?

they like drama and his trash talking. Same as with Conor McGregor's fans.

Hawkeye is dodgy, that's not where the ball landed.

Lost set. Bye bye Nikki. So sorry to see you go. Not.

if i were in his corner
i'd muzzle him,tell him
ur serve is fking awesome
just make sure u don't drop it again
u can still win this
win the 1st breaker if u don't break Djoko
rinse & repeat
and u r the Champion

u prob aren't far off the mark there,Sam

Can you imagine Rafa or Roger doing this? Why aren't you cheering for me at 40-0?

Needs a psycho

notice you didn't include Joker in that list, tho

any shrink who was on his case would soon need a shrink themselves

Is right, he screws everyone up, including us watching on the tele

Djoko's given NK time to reflect and get his sh1t together
mind games don't always work

still muttering about 40-0

Needs a psycho

True


Unfortunately has got a Djoko…

You don't usually win at sports by losing it, usually the opposite. Calmness wins things, and a cool head

I suppose it's only fair to say that Djoker is playing very well. It's not all about Kyrgios's antics.

he's had to des..for all his petulance NK has played pretty well

yes, but then he's usually very good at doing what he has to do.

40-0 ...

match has been a good standard..both boys can play

rubbish from Castle here. Nick plays his best tennis when he's not in seethe mode.

God almighty Castle, why don't you propose. Ugh

German journalism bringing the bombs again.

Would be good if they get Karatsev, but I doubt this will lead to anything.

shot!

I would like to see a 5th set, for trading, but I'm not sure if it'll happen.

Karatsev is one the most known match fixer of all time and they couldn't catch him so far, shas little chance to catch him at all.In 2018 me and few of fellow traders actively reported Bashilasvili for match fixing because we knew he did it.I got to the point when I had a conversation with leader of Tiu and they was surprised since they already had an active investigation on Bash. Thats was 2018 and they didnt do sh1t.These players are literally uncatchable

*They werent surprised

great drop shot

ooked in

they've got get to get rid of line judges like the US Open - this keeps happening

now it gets interesting. Can NK's nerve hold?  hopefully he knows about Joker's poor TB record.

Masterclass in how to treat the umpire in a Wimbledon final

'You're hesitant. You're not confident, you have no authority'

The clown obvs thought it was out - just like the line judge.

I think that was more about covid.

moment of TRUTH

Think this is the most balanced crowd Joker has ever had in a Wimbledon final. It's sort of 43-57

nah, he's gone.

He's a bottler and hides it behind rants

A great example of sportsmanship before our future Kings. I hope he never gets a grand slam.

Kyrgios totally out of gas - Djokovic can do this all day

Keeps asking why. When are they going to tell him why. He isn,t fit to be a champion .

If the Serbian wins I win 230p from a free bet from 'laddie' on Wimbledon only.

he's given up now
can't say he didn't turn up
or that nerves got the better of him
but until such time as he grows up on court
and given he's 27
that ain't happening anytime soon
he will continually fail to fulfill his true potential

GSM Joker.  NK deserved to lose.  played like a **** in the TB.

Bye bye Nick. We won't miss you.

Fcuking mental midget

I think that was more about covid.

Really I didn't know that. There's no way Wimbledon will get rid of line judges it's all about tennis club officials getting their moment of glory - never mind that it leads to wrong calls that doesn't matter.

The GOAT gets to feel SW19 love at last

Fancy playing a Wimbledon Final and spending most time not focussed and losing your head.
NK will probably not remember much of that match, all a bad tempered haze.

Hawkeye has got a few wrong as well, this week. Unless I'm mistaken.

Kyrgios hit the PONR at 40-0 up on his own serve, when he started ranting at his box, that was him pre preparing his own excuses for when he loses, such a numbskull

he can play a bit this guy Djoko
but he should've have won another 2 slams
when he went walkabout mentally

Matthew Willis@mattracquet
·1m
Kyrgios in Best of 3 sets vs Top Ten: 22 wins, 20 losses (52% win rate)

Kyrgios in Best of 5 sets vs Top Ten: 3 wins, 16 losses (16% win rate)

He looked quite happy to lose at the end.

Just a shame Rafa got injured to deny us a final the occasion deserved.

This man-child & his toddler tantrums was never going to trouble Novak over 5 sets.

Don,t know what his current girlfriend sees in this sulky bullying self centred millionaire…oh! Wait a minute…..

even given his histrionics he may well have won against a lesser player than Novak

Fair play Novak, but it was a tough match for sure, I'm sure he'd admit.

he had a realistic chance to win today, Novak has been average all tournament and is 35 now, a set up he blew it because he did not think he could still win.

...but he wasn't playing a lesser player

...but he wasn't playing a lesser player
no sh1t!

exactly - your initial comment was bizarre

yeah, I think NK might have beaten some qualifier

Tbf, where does Novak look spectacular thru a whole slam except maybe at the Aus Open?

Made sure he had his red cap to give Netflix some content.  Who was the overdressed guy in the green jacket and white cap up in the box?

NK without his antics & tantrums would be a nobody.

Fed officially 3rd place in the GOAT race.

93 dude

it's the complete opposite, NK is in the top 5 easily as the most talented players on tour, if he stopped the antics and concentrated on the tennis he'd start winning slams. Djokovic knew he'd have a meltdown at some point.

Novak usually looks a lot better than he has during this Wimbledon, dropped 5 sets on the way to this final which he hardly ever does enroute to Wimbledon finale.

That was to Novak saying sampras won 1st in 92.
Not saying Fed is 93rd place in GOAT

Lol.

Nowhere near as ridic as saying NK would've beaten a lesser player.

Novak is effectively 1.3 to avoid injury.There's no way he can beat Novak over 5 sets because he simply can't maintain that level required for so long.Furthermore, he's unlikely to use his tactical outburst strategy to disrupt his opponent given the occasion.

Yeah, stating the obvious.

But NK won't ever stop his antics - that will deprive him of publicity.

Without his tantrums, he'd be just another also-ran.

Novak simply too good over 4 and 5 sets at a slam

Kygios might beat him at lesser comps over 3 but judging that today hes never getting close against him in a slam final

Novak having a nice natter there with the Duchess about their kids.
He knew it was her son's first Wimbledon. Smooth.

Royalty talking with royalty.

kyrgios blaming his team for not cheering him on when hes 40-0 or 40-15 up is hilarious........if he could mature he could win a few slams when rafa and novak retire

Ok...so who's winning this women's doubles...backing the jollies here Krej and Siniakova just a final dice throw this year.

Be nice if beeb bothered to put it on too...

Sue being pensioned off

He couldn't have served any better than he did today (Johnny Mac said it was the best serving he's ever seen here, and I concur) but still wasn't enough. The reality is his unbelievable serve kept him in the match longer than he should have been. This is NK's peak, and he knows it. It's been a great tourney for him and he's prob won a bunch of new fans along the way.

#asgoodasitgets

Nice start ladies.

Very pleasant way to end my betting for this championships - great performance ladies.

I am surprised just how much BBC are hyping up Djokovic won't be able to play Australia as well as USO, saying he's very unlikely to be allowed in.

I'd be amazed if they didn't tear up his 3 year ban for deportation, he will almost certainly be let into Aus imo.

Australia there's a chance, US Open unlikely which would suit the the tournament organisers perfectly, I think they've already said they wont put in any kind of appeal for him, they are absolutely desperate to get their Federer v Nadal match, which has never happened at the US Open unbelievably, that's if Federer will even be fit.



Nadal might not make it, you could have the most boring draw ever this year, which is fitting because the tired slam has always been a bit crap. It's the one I look forward to the least anyway.

Kyrgios for USO then...?

Felix won the wooden spoon.

rafa should prepare 100 pct to be ok for us open........if novak is not there it could be his last chance to win a non french slam......nice to join fed, sampras and jimmy connors on 5 us opens in open era.......
