Agreed, however I feel she can get some decent results on clay. Looking at her losses on clay last year they came at the expense of wozniacki, Pavlyuchenkova, sharapova and serena. If she can get a decent draw in a clay tournament to build her confidence on the surface, think she can pick up some points leading into wimbledon.can now just go for broke during the clay season since its her weakest part.
Very little to defend. If she can make a run in one of the tournaments, she may get to 8th by wimbledon.Ash Barty's results in 2018 after Miami:
- R16 Charleston (Premier)
- R32 Madrid (PremierMandatory)
- R64 Rome (Premier 5)
- SF Strasbourg (International)
- R64 French Open
Federer is still amazingly consistent for someone that's turning 38 years of age in August.
I think best of 3 suits Roger a lot more than best of 5 at his age.
Federer confirmed a while ago he is playing the French Open this year. No doubt the last time he will play at Roland Garros.He will ignore the clay and give Wimbledon a crack.
I don't see why he cannot. Last year unfortunately he choked, but I have no doubt had he gone through he would've beaten Isner and possibly a tired Djokovic. He's playing better than he did last year. Probably not going to take the French Open as seriously, any win there will be a bonus anyway.I agree.
Look the fact is he shouldn't be winning these tournaments now and he will be days away from 38 by the time Wimbledon comes round. Surely he cannot win there!!!!!!
I love Federer - along with Messi my favourite non Richmond footy team sports star - but it is a sad reflection on tennis that man now well into his late thirties can still pick up the coveted prizes.
Federer himself said he's not going to retire until he can't compete at the top any more. He is regularly making deep runs into tournaments... he could probably play until he is 40. He still has the best reflexes out of anyone on the tour... though one injury might bring it all down.Has Federer ever mentioned his retirement plans? Would he retire end of next year?
Maybe he could play the Australian Open in 2021, or finish up after the IW/Miami in 2021.
I should look up what time of year the Swiss events are on.
LOL, that could be quite a while!Federer himself said he's not going to retire until he can't compete at the top any more.
Thats because the depth of talent in the men's game is poor, you won't find many sports where 1 of the best players in the world is nearing 39 except Tom Brady. Federer isn't even close to peak Federer yet is still capable of playing at a level that not many others can match bar some players in the top 10. Has been fortunate to avoid Djokovic the past year and a bit as well. If you look past the Roger Federer aura on Tennis you will realise the game is crap, everyone plays the same and there are barely any personalities.Federer is still amazingly consistent for someone that's turning 38 years of age in August.
