The real Tennis thread.

He'll be back and make all his haters suffer.

He had the measure of his opponent for most of the match and it took some herculean freakish points from Alcaraz to win that one.

So yeah, the guy who shouts vamos and gets the crowd on his side after every point won came out on top. But if Sinner keeps on doing what he's doing (& don't forget he only had one preparation tournament before RG), their next encounter could have a different outcome.

He’s got plenty of haters after he got caught doping.

He didn't.

 

[BullsFan22]

He didn't.

No, he just got caught using a banned substance, that’s all…

Pretty much, yeah. Though I wouldn't say "got caught using," either. A forbidden substance was found in his body, that's about it.

LOL. Yeah, ok. Whatever you say, pal. Broski got caught doping.

Hard to say how much that had to do with it. Sinner has basically negative charisma to start with, no matter how hard the ATP/pundits/big money tries to hype him.

Repeating something doesn't suddenly make it true. I have absolutely no idea why you insist on this take, anyway. It's honestly mystifying, and it would be great if you explained it to me. I guarantee you I'm not arguing in bad faith here.

I'm barely a casual tennis fan (and a complete USA homer), but even I know that MANY people (players and fans) were skeptical of Sinners case.

I'll leave it at that since there is a thread for this type of discussion.

Do you want to know the best thing about Wimbledon? Pogacar and Vingegaard aren't doing it.

Tennis where it's Pogacar vs Vingegaard but the decaying corpse of Froome is still making semifinals because the rest of the field is that terrible.
