Rafa has had some severe injuries, his ankle is fecked, his shoulder isn't what it was and now he has torn a muscle, and for once has decided it isn't worth it, because he has 22 GS victories (Wimbledon won't count, anyway), 2 more than Roger the Great one and Lance, who when he's losing, calls the doctor or goes for a shite and is suddenly 21 years old again.

Nads will try his usual slowing down of play , noticed his new tactic was rearranging his tennis rackets and towels . Nick hopefully will call him out in this . Expect multiple calls to the umpire Fireworks to follow !!! Nick serves at nearly 1 second to go, hell of a lot of times. And he then shouts and swears to distract his opponents. Classless prick.

Same could happen with the golf majors depending what happens with the ludicrous LIV tour. Tennis doesn't have that same rival tour going on at least. The very continuation of a settled, historically sound legacy of golf majors is being threatened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilnunb Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 The ranking points are a minor issue. How many players actually care about ranking points as they lift a Slam? Yes, it might jump you up a few places and get you into other tournaments but winning a Slam puts you into the history books of the sport. Anyone not entering a Slam purely based on no ranking points is a liar, they don't enter because they know they have no chance of winning. Would Osaka skip the US Open if no ranking points were available? 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone getting injured is part and parcel of sport; I'm not including that as diminishing it. Banning the top player (on ranking) though certainly asterisks it though, in the same way Australia was. If the best players are fit and available but removed due to politics it taints the tournament. All just imo though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those points are more helpful to lower ranked players who want to get into the main draw . The ATP were right in withdrawing ranking points for W.
