Grand Slam Wimbledon

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

This match is never going to finish

In this world of absolute beasts, it's going to be very hard for Alex De Minaur to ever win a Grand Slam. He's got the Aussie fighting spirit in him, but in today's world of athletic beasts, it's going to be very tough for him to ever win. I hope he doesn't become the next Guillermo Coria because that's who he's reminding me of. Let's hope Kyrgios can avenge him tomorrow against Garin to get through to his first semifinal.

Imagine he beats Rafa in the semi oh boy

Say what you want about Nick but he is what appeals to the younger generation and god knows tennis needs the boost in popularity amongst kids.

Tennis is dying amongst the juniors, kids are spending more time in front of screens, play less sports let alone tennis full stop. Those that want to play sports play the more glamorous sports like football, soccer and basketball. Tennis is seen as pretty ****ing lame.

Nick and characters like him is tennis' way of making the sport "cool". Gentleman or clean cut personalities don't appeal to the younger generation.

You're definitely not wrong. Watching him gives you an adrenaline rush.

Ajla is playing well but is she mentally tough enough to grind this out?

Alex is the kind of #2 every Davis Cup team wants. A scrapper, a fighter - but yeah he never gonna win anything important.

Look, he could win something down the track, but I fear he's just never going to quite make that jump to the elite category, and as I said, he doesn't fit the Tennis that is played today.

Problem with Alex is that if he plays at his absolute best, he is extremely unlikely to win against the top players. Fortunately for him, he consistently plays at a level that puts him into the third and fourth rounds of grand slams.

The problem with Nick is that him playing at his absolute best is good enough to beat most top 10 players. Unfortunately for him, his absolute best comes out far too seldomly and he gets bundled out too early in majors.

Good win for Aija been a quality match second set was crucial lots of long rallies and she won most

Halep looking in sensational form

Gee cornet has mixed double right after this game on the same court... Keen!

I highly doubt she'll play. It seems this game has taken a toll on her.

Need to focus here Ailja, don't get sucked into the frogs mind games.

They'll have to wheel her out onto the court at this rate

You may have spoken too soon...

 

[MrBarry]

Chuck it in if your injured Cornet....

 

[MrBarry]

Well done Ajla, good girl!

 

[AdelaideGT]

well done Ajla - shame your ranking gonne slide down to the 70s but enjoy the prize-money

Its so harsh on players like her.....

Stupid decision.

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

YES! What a match and performance from both players. That was arguably the match of Wimbledon so far. Full credit to the veteran, Alize Cornet. Talk about putting your entire body on the line. Congratulations Ajla. You can see what this means to her.

 

[AdelaideGT]

nice post-match interview

I'd argue this is the best I've seen her play. If she plays like this, it's going to be very hard to stop her. I think she has a chance of winning it all.

 

[MrBarry]

nice post-match interview

Agreed, she spoke really well.

Always had a lot of time for her, just think she lacks confidence at times and doesn't think she belongs.

Her ball striking is as good as any of the top 10.

Has too much pride and heart.

Keep a lid on it....

Lets get her through the next game....

But this is the best I've seen her as well. I'd argue if she didn't play Barty in the QF last year she had a huge chance of winning it as well.
