Curtains Posted February 21, 2021 Author Posted February 21, 2021 Well the crowd going mad when the players entered the arena Should be great. Djokovic vs Medvedev Both great players

maxjam Posted February 21, 2021 Posted February 21, 2021 2 sets up now and beginning to look like it could be over quickly unless Medvedev regroups.
maxjam Posted February 21, 2021 Posted February 21, 2021 All over, pretty convincing win tbh. Shame would have liked it to be more of a contest.
Curtains Posted February 21, 2021 Author Posted February 21, 2021 Very enjoyable to watch Congratulations to Novak
rad1919 Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 Djokovic and Nadal making a mockery of football managers "resting" players if they play a couple of matches in a week. Unbelievable skill and stamina from these two tonight. If you're not already watching you're probably missing one of the greatest tennis matches of all time.

Sorry my friend Djokovic may be a great player but I for one am just fed up of his dominance of the men's game and it's getting boring in my opinion. Might as well just give him the trophies I feel sorry for Tsitsipas because he hasn't got a chance in the final. I for one won't be bothering to watch it. I use to love watching tennis but not anymore.

Thx for that

I use to love watching tennis but not anymore. I don't mind Djokovic tbh, he's better viewing than Nadal imo and assuming he takes the title he'll be just 1 Grand Slam behind both Federer and Nadal. I'd like to see Federer get at least 1 more Grand Slam, what with covid, his injuries and age being against him now, it just feels like his career has petered out a bit through no real fault of his own. But yeah, Djokovic has got age and athleticism over his big two rivals and the next generation aren't really at their level yet. If he stays injury free he could dominate for a few more years and eventually go on to claim around 25 Grand Slams imo.

I love the way Federer plays the game and would like to see him remain as the player with the most Grand Slams, certainly for the forseeable future - unfortunately I think he is going to be very quickly overhauled ?

Federer or Nadal I don't mind but I would love to see a new generation of players start to win grand slams. One things for sure will not watch today's final can see it been one sided and boring hope I'm wrong.

The Wimbledon's in 2018 when he lost to a random in the qf after being 2 sets up and blowing 3 championship points in the 2019 final against Djokovic will probably cost him

Not an epic by any stretch of imagination but comng back from sets down in a Grand Slam final is a great achievement. Gratz Novak!

I get where you're coming from but it's up to the others to match up to the dedication, professionalism, stamina and mental strength of Djokovic who right now is on a different planet. He wore out Nadal over 4 and a half hours and then came back from 2 sets down 2 days later against the world number 3. Whether you like it or not the man is an absolute machine and will go down in history as one of the best sportsmen/women of all time.
