Who’s talking about clay??

I thought Sasha may play the first single, before Fed or Rafa, maybe they really don’t have much confidence in Sasha.

Will this be like 2017, when Fedal won their doubles, then Rafa lost to Isner (lost to Kyrgios now) and Fed helped Team Europe won the Cup by beating Kyrgios (now Isner)?

Fed always the hero while Rafa has to […]

And both Fed and Rafa have to ‘carry’ their respective doubles partner in their doubles matches.

The Sock/Kyrgios combination imo is stronger than the Sock/Shapo one; and Sasha despite not being a great doubles […]

Amazingly, Medvedev is into another final, ie five finals in a row, uncommon when you’re not a member of the big three.

Hopefully he wins the title here, on home ground.

Yes finally, Rafa wins in straight sets and avoids a third set TB.

Raonic is one boring player, I find him even more boring than Isner. There’s not much excitement in this match, as points are usually so short.

The Fed/Kyrgios match was much more exciting, as Kyrgios has m […]

Rafa shouldn’t be playing out there, he’s clearly not playing well. His serve is really not up to the mark, and out of the blue he lost his serve after having difficulty despite all the chances breaking Raonic’s serve.

Rafa is soaking wet; Fed too in the earlier match. It seems like this arena doesn’t have good air conditioning.

Rafa has BPs and then converts! Well done! Now please hold and wins the set!

Rafa holding serve with so much hard work whilst Raonic holds serve easily with his huge serves!

Here we go again, every service game of Rafa is a torture. He’s not getting in his first serve, what’s the problem with him??

Only Rafa dares to give Fed some advices, no one else from Team Europe dares to do that!

Who decides who to play who from each team?

If I’m the one picking the players, I’ll put Sasha to face Kyrgios, Fed to face Isner and Rafa to face Raonic. I mean, both Fed and Rafa have very good chances of […]

It seems that team event brings out the best in the players – Sock played well to win a singles match, likewise for Tsitsipas and now it seems Sasha is doing well against Isner.

Rafa loves team events, so […]

I doubt Rafa is playing with a bad wrist, I mean it’s a team event, why risk playing poorly because of his wrist and loses to affect the team’s standing against Team World?

It will be selfish to play when you […]

Rafa was playing well at Beijing and Shanghai after the LC in 2017. I do feel Rafa enjoys playing in a team, that brings out the joy and the best from him, and so in 2017 that might have made him played well at […]

Whoa! That Dutra Silva vs Berlocq match, it’s the most noisy match ever! Worse than Sharapova vs Azarenka shrieking match imo.

The two guys were like engaged in a fight, punching each other, some kungfu f […]

Yes, it’s Rogerio Dutra Silva, oh he’s from Brazil, not Argentina. His grunting was simply horrible and unbearable. He grunts on every point, and it’s so loud! I wonder how his opponents are going to toler […]

Re: the Americans. I was talking mainly about the Europeans, hence I didn’t mention the Americans and the Australians (both countries were great and famous at tennis since a long long time ago, producing tennis g […]

Did the big three, at 23, have varieties in their game, at least similar to Medvedev’s varieties?

How is Medvedev at 23 compared to the big 3 at 23?

Fed at 23 (2004 to Wimbledon 2005) had won five slams, but he didn’t have three players at the big three level to contend with at the slams.

Rafa at 23 ( […]
