Djoko winning the AO tops it all on the HCs.

Djoko’s groundstrokes are so precise! Impressive!

Yes agreed! The serve is very important at this stage of his career. He needs a great serve to win on grass as he’s not his 2008 self anymore.

*and plays the way he deems fit,

Hi Sanju and Amy,

First Sanju, I think Rafa still has time to work on his game. The USO HC is not as quick as grass and not as low bouncing, so Rafa can actually play it like his FO final (where he played […]

Djoko in four or five sets I think. The guy Djoko can just stay in the point for as long as possible without making mistakes, scary.

I watched some highlights of their Wimbledon match (don’t know which year – […]

Sanju, I doubt. I’ll bet that Rafa will win > 2 more slams.

I think Rafa will be determined to win the coming USO, after suffering a disappointing loss at Wimbledon. Rafa seemed confused out there when p […]

Sanju, so how many more slams you think Rafa could win?

Gaviria, I don’t agree. Djoko is one guy that the more you cheer against him, the more fired up he becomes. Also, never underestimate Djoko in a slam final against his two main rivals, he will bring his best r […]

Djoko’s movement is superb on any surface, he’s like a spiderman, so quick and so flexible. Those balls that Rafa couldn’t get to, Djoko most likely could. It’s tough to hit past him.

Fed has to be at the top […]

Halep plays like a female version of Djoko. She’s getting every ball back and hitting some unbelievable shots! She’s playing aggressive tennis here; she’s giving Serena a beat down, now serving for the match […]

Yes he has a chance at USO, in fact very good chance because I feel other than the FO, the USO is where Djoko is relatively more vulnerable. Rafa has beaten Djoko there twice, none at AO and none at Wimbledon in […]

Happy, I had my opinion just the opposite from yours; I thought Rafa had to overcome Fed but he would do better against Djoko, simply because both of them could go toe to toe baseline to baseline. Rafa would be […]

But Happy, why are you so against Djoko?

I’m a Rafa fan no doubt, but I do recognise both Fed’s and Djoko’s greatness. I’ve high hope on Rafa winning many slams but have to recognise it may be beyond […]

If Djoko wins on Sunday, that means he has 5 Wimbledon titles, I feel he catching Fed’s 8 may become a reality. Djoko doesn’t look like he’s stopping anytime soon, and I think he made it clear that he’s there t […]

Serena has better chances to win than Fed of course, because her opponent is Halep who is a first timer in a Wimbledon final. Djoko is a four times winner and he’s not even stressed out when reaching his sixth final.

Please sanju, why is it Fed’s swan song? He will play for a few more years, maybe he’ll outlast Rafa!

As for Rafa, his two AO losses to Fed and Djoko, happened when he’s back from injury. His Wimbledon 2018 […]

Happy, Wimbledon is too close to the FO, making the transition from clay to grass very challenging. Rafa normally played the final Sunday at the FO, leaving him not much time to train and get used to playing on […]

I for one, thought Rafa would play his aggressive game like he did in his previous few rounds. I mean, since his one two punch tennis together with his serve were working well, why revert back to rallying on […]

PK,

Since Rafa’s AO 2014 final loss, he wasn’t able to play the way he did at US HCs of 2013 anymore. I think we can forget about that Rafa of 2010/2013 USO appearing again.

I do feel it’s mental more […]
