God I'm praying for Serena to lose in the 3rd Round so we can end this ridiculous love in that is happening. The on court interview after she won in round 2 was vomit inducing.

Someone's blocked the Suez again apparently...

Thank **** it's been refloated already. Shipping delays etc already caused minor inflation of goods last time - on top of current inflation that would have broken the world

Didn’t see the interview but the greatest player of all time playing her last ever tournament in her home country is a pretty good reason for a “love in” I would have thought. Hopefully she wins the whole thing.

I hope she wins. Don't want that bigoted nutjob Margaret Court to have the record all to herself.

The "love in" is fine from fans but the way Serena takes it is vomit inducing. She always has that air of yes, I'm the greatest etc, thank you. Yes I'm the best of all time. Me, me, me.

Ugh, have a little humility Serena.

She is the greatest though.

Jordan was the same and you love him.

 

[jod23]

Debatable. Navratilova, Court and Graf all have claims as well.

 

[jod23]

Be honest, you dont know much about Michael Jordan do you?

Jordan has been asked a million times in his career if he considers himself the GOAT. Every time he has said no, as it would be disrepectful to the great players that paved the way for him and he often talks of Bird and Magic, Kareem, Russell, Wilt, Dr.J etc

Sorry but you're wrong.

 

[chef]

She is the greatest though.

Yep, no doubt imo.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Yep, no doubt imo.

I consider Steffi Graf better. Higher win % in an era where there were more top women around. Record time at number 1. 1 less slam title. Retired at 30.

Also won the golden slam of all 4 titles in a year and an olympic gold

He only made a tv show to talk about it.

No they don't.

Nah mate I think Jod knows a bit more about Michael Jordan than you.

 

[jod23]

No they don't.

Yes they do.

 

[jod23]

Nah mate I think Jod knows a bit more about Michael Jordan than you.

I actually do. Sorry not sorry.

But I'm like a mega fan. I know everything.

Jordan has never said he is the greatest of all time. You will never find a clip of him saying it.

But that's beside the point. Other women have claims on that GOAT spot for womens Tennis.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

No they don't.

Yes they do.

Reminds me of this exchange:

Well I mean if he's gonna be childish, he will get childish responses.

Did Serena call herself the GOAT?

Not in the interview, I was referring to the post match interview from Round 2.

It's grim viewing, go check it out.

Hope she loses in round 3 so it can all be over.

Surely not this one? Because I just watched it and thought it was great. No idea what you’re on about.

 

[SM]

You've made a fool of yourself all through this discussion so didn't think you merited more effort in rebuttal than I offered up.

 

[jod23]

Yeah that's the one.

Ugh, please let it end. That interviewer also gives me the shits.
