All three of them are superb players, athletes and semi like decent blokes. Their ability to find ways to win no matter the opposition when the stakes are at their highest is unparalleled. Yeh "GOAT" debates can be frustrating because opinions can vary. Djokovic is the only one who has been reigning champ in the 4 grand slams, Nadal has the most grand slams and Federer has most titles. I think 🤔 So it does make it an interesting debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I P Knightley Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 23 hours ago, Jeff said: The fact Tstipas(sp) started complaining about his towels being moved showed it got to him. Interesting that Kyrgios was quiet when winning until it got close in the 4th I thought the towel thing was amusing but, really, backs Tsitsipant's accusation that NK is a bully. Kyrgios isn't a clever man and seems, in his own defence, to equate bullying to Chinese burnsand twisted nipples. Loading Shittypant's towel bucket with his own after ST had raised the question with the umpire and then throwing his empty water bottle into ST's bag are forms of bullying and NK's comment that, basically, ST shouldn't be such a big Jessie is a bully's response. If he plays Rafa and is half the man he thinks he is, I want to see him doing what I would and that's to knock Nadal's perfectly positioned water bottles squinty at the change of ends. The whistle stop service games would also be welcome, giving Nadal no time to pick his bum and twitch. 5 hours ago, Victorian said: No reason in the world why Norrie can't win a grand slam soon. Lots of reasons why. He's solid but not spectacular. He'll be found out by to many of the top guns, I'm afraid. I like him a lot and feel he'd be a Jambo if he had to pick a Scottish team. But, I'm nothing if not a crap tennis tipster so feel free to pile your money on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyJudyJudy Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Badosa v Halep should be a good match Despite winning Wimbledon Halep still hasn’t really fulfilled her great potential I feel . She should have a few slams now . Good luck to her today . Alize Cornet is always a delight to watch She’s playing as well . And the bad boy Nick is on too scratchy bum is on later too , Playing a player who beat the great grass court player Gasquet so he might be one to watch . Mind you Gasquet is passed his best .

That immediately put Medvedev clear at #1 in the world rankings with Djoko dropping to #7. Kind of shooting yourself in the foot. I've been listening to the official Wimbledon radio channel for better chat than the BBC serve up. They encourage audience participation and today have asked listeners to tweet suggestions of tennis player lookey likeys. I didn't believe they'd read mine out but they did.

Given that Sasha Zverev is accused of similar, I wouldn't expect the tennis authorities to do anything about it.
