Tazio Posted July 7, 2024 Share Posted July 7, 2024 Just to change the theme to being nice about someone I worked on a book launch Claire Balding did and she’s a lovely person with no airs about here. Rather annoyingly so when I just wanted to finish work and go home and she chatted for ages to all the people getting their books signed.

She was very complimentary about my dog in a pub when she was going past to have a slash. That puts her good in my books!! 1 hour ago, redjambo said: You could look at the treatment of her coaches for a start, particularly Andrew Richardson. Rico was always a temporary appointment. When she had success with him in the coach's box, they wanted to keep him on but he didn't want the globe-trotting lifestyle due to family commitments at home. So he put a hefty price on the table to continue and Emma's dad got the message and said 'no'. Not saying that she (or her dad) are easy on coaches in general. They want to pay peanuts and control what the coach does with Emma, which means that they're either hamstringing their coach or buying in mediocre lackeys.

I had that other version of his story at the time from two separate people who are in the tennis world, one of whom had, at the time, a son being coached by Richardson. The bit in the story about Raducanu's dad wanting more of a household name is certainly familiar, although he wanted to do it on a budget that involved paying little more than Richardson had been getting. Maybe he got the KB from Raducanu due to his financial demands being thought of as unreasonable (which would tie up the two versions of the story)? Apart from the potential financial benefits, I think that Richardson was well out of that camp over the last couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyJudyJudy Posted July 8, 2024 Share Posted July 8, 2024 Might have to rethink that assessment ,. Novak will probably be at a disadvantage if the current match goes on and on.

Day@theraces Posted July 8, 2024 Share Posted July 8, 2024 Also seems like something has been going on this year with Novak. Not just with his tennis. Sure he alluded to some things in an interview not long back. But an irritated and fired up Novak will be tough to beat. Even by the two new young studs Carlos & Jannik.

When Carlito first caught my attention (US Open, 2021 - many people were fixating on something else happening at the time), I posted on here that he was the next real deal. At the time, there didn't seem to be anyone else threatening to challenge for the top spot and I may have ventured a guess that he would skoosh all the records. However, we've now got Jannik Sinner, who I'm sure will push Alco in the same way that Nadal pushed Djoko. Ruud/Rune, Shelton, FA-A, Fils and (possibly) Draper will be keeping them honest as Murray, Stan and Delpo did for the previous "Big 3" - maybe even this big French lunk, Giovanni Petchey-Perricard will make them think twice. Plus, of course, Jake "The Jambo" Fearnley . With Meddlers, Fritz, Paul, Tsitsi and Zverev all with something to give, it should be a healthy 'out with the old - in with the new' over the next few seasons and Alco won't have it all his own way as I first thought.

He showed a great deal of grace and acted like a true sportsman after last year's final. Him and his wife hung around and applauded Alcaraz as he went around with the trophy. Once the contest is over, congratulate and be happy for the winner. That's a sure sign of a man comfortable in his own skin. Gone back to being a tit. It's up to him.
