I don't like him either but I suspect it has a change of top / undies / shorts if he feels a bit sweaty. He didn't need just shy of 7 minutes mind (unless he was struggling to have a massive poop or had to ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 He is going to win it again isn't he. I reckon in the past 30 odd years about three-quarters of men wimbeldon's have been won by Sampras, Fed and Djokovic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted July 16, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 16, 2023 Some game of tennis this, it’s got the highs and lows the villain and the good guy and the necessary ebbs and flows hoping Alcraraz can close this out now. Not a big tennis fan but I really do despise Djokovic as a human being 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 I don't watch much tennis but there doesn't seem to be much competition, this kid could win almost everything over the next 5-6 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how some can't just appreciate sheer determination to be the best at what you do. He's a phenomenal sportsman and arguably the greatest competitor ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what i think. He is an amazing talent and if he remains injury free and motivated there's nobody out there that will be able to touch him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted July 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 16, 2023 Jokovic on the young pretenders to his throne, earlier this week: "I know that they want to get a scalp, they want to win - but it ain’t happening", It is now, Novak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The moment was on the alcaraz BP down in the 5th and pulled out the prime Nadal defence to get back about 6 near certain winners and outlast Djokovic. And then broke him in the next game. That was the moment, Djokovic didn't lose it but Alcaraz beat him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Alcaraz deserved to win but I just think Djokovic lost his chance in the 2nd set tie break after going 3-0 up and played a number of unforced errors when he normally lifts his game in tie breaks. Win that I think he wins the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to him. Thought he came across as a prick tbh, trying to claim he should have won, saying he maybe won some tournaments that he shouldn't have earlier in the season by inference that he should have won that one, even stevens my arse. Don't recall him congratulating the winner either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
