did not realise Joint's record this year was so bad, won 3 and lost 15, that's almost unheard of, has been injured at times but still.
if I didn't know any better, I would think that she has literally been Hand Picked to play Serena  |

By:
ffs piece on players complaining about money again, 80 grand for losing round 1, 3.6 mil for the winner, turn it in
|
|
By:
Certainly the top level players have no reason to moan, especially with the extras they make, although costs with all the extra coaches and advisors must be extreme, but I guess for anyone outside the top 100/200 it could be more dificult.

Why is Casper Ruud so hopeless on grass? Does he simply not bother to improve on it since the season is so short?
|
|
By:
he once said grass is for Golf and he prepares for Wimbledon by playing Golf
I think in general when grass conditions are normal and the court is not baked out, it just suits the more aggressive big hitting, faster players, Ruud's more about hitting heavy topspin shots, those shots sit up more off of grass and just helps returners have more time to hit back rather than what flat shots on grass do. He's a clayer, they're more tactical, grass is not really for tactical players, might have done better in the serve and volley era where you had to be less one dimensional, same with Iga who also hits with a million rpm's, of course clay like conditions last year helped her out here. also think psychologically when someone tells themselves they're no good on a particular surface, they've lost before they've begun. |

By:
Definitely has the wrong mindset and not reaching his potential on this surface. Not like he doesn't have the game and ability to cope with plenty on the tour.

By:
yeah his record should be better, he barely plays any warm up grass event either, he just doesn't care for the surface

draper out of wimbledon, british tennis is so finnish
 |
|
By:
I was literally just about to say that if Serena hadn't of come back, Big Stan Wawrinka in his last ever Wimbledon would have probably been given Centre Court as a send off match against Berrettini, who is a former finalist here as well so would be a worthy match on the main show court, now that Draper's out they can move him over to centre.

By:
good initiative from Betfair getting this market up.
Women's Wimbledon 2026 - Serena Williams Stage of Elimination sadly no liqudity. |

epic Rublev tie breaker
|
|
By:
Rublev out, Sinner slips, a mad minute !
|
|
By:
osty rattled by the crowd
|
|
By:
that should be the end of the Rublev-Safin relationships, quelling his on court anger has done nothing to progress him.

By:
Sinner always has such a strange gait it's hard to tell if he's ever actually got any issues
|

By:
Rublev is the Russian David Ferrer, all the will in the world, no tools in the tool box
|
|
By:
