Is the last Russian that didn't severely underperform at most slams Maria Sharapova?
|
|
By:
There was the attempt to injure himself.
|
|
By:
pretty harsh at Daniil
|
|

|
|
By:
Oh, there is him I guess.....
|
|
By:
He's been ok at slams.
|
|
By:
all this talk about Rublev and "if only he could contain his emotions ...". Well he did for most of this 3rd set and has been super flat.
|
|
By:
but emotions or not, Arnaldi has been the better player since I tuned in after the 1st. And his levels hasn't dropped.
|
|
By:
Superb from Arnaldi

I need to be extra careful with my Rublev bets then. Risk for both default and injury.
|
|
By:
The French are too quick to close the roof. Unless it is really coming down hard, let them play in the rain and keep the roof open. That's part of clay mastery.
|
|
By:
that reminds me of when Nalbandian kicked the advertising hoarding at Queens against Cilic in the final and was defaulted, the lineman who was 'hurt' made a proper meal of it. Can't ever remember anyone other player being defaulted in a final, Serena was defaulted in the semi of the US Open allowing Kim into the final was the nearest
|
|
By:
she was not defaulted. Got a point penalty which meant GSM.
|
|
By:
same thing
|
|
By:
I think the Nalbandian linesman actually drew blood, and not in an imaginary way suggested by Cilic.
|
|
By:
was a graze edy, linemans was an old drama queen
|
|
By:
the way he was limping around you'd think he'd been hit by an AK47
|
|
By:
Old southerners are fragile.
|
|
By:
I would for sure milk any injury caused by temper tantrums. If these spoiled tennis brats are jerks it's going to cost them.
|
|
By:
It was then that he had his serve broken when he failed to retrieve cross court winner from Cilic. Having scampered in vain across the baseline to try and retrieve it, Nalbandian suddenly launched an almighty drop kick at the wooden plyboard which housed the chair of Yorkshire line judge Andrew McDougall.

Oh god, Yorkshire people are the most dramatic of them all. Our own doridoru was one of them.

Leylah just has to hang tough here, definitely has a the conditioning edge.

By:
old people bleed easily, was nothing really
|
|
By:
that seems a reasonable rule btw. If you actualy draw blood from someone, it should be a default.
|
|
By:
it should be about intent, that's the key word, he had no intent on injuring anyone, just a freak accident

Amelie wanted the WTA matches out of the way early today. Nothing after this batch

I remember his post match interview, crowd were booing at on point, he looked distressed, trying his best to explain how much pressure the ATP puts on players to play as many events as possible and he was tired
|
|
By:
he didn't do himself any favors in that interview.
|
|
By:
why, he was not a bad guy and apologised
|
|
By:
just looked at the date, fk me that was 2012
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
he's a hothead and then he blames ATP. Funnily enough I've ever seen any other playing cause a line judge to bleed. |
