      Yeah i'm not a Djok fan but he has a serious claim to being the best player of all time. His returning ability is unbelievable.

      Yeah, seriously dislike the prick but I reckon he’s GOAT. Untouchable when on song.

      Stayed opposite my home during Wimbledon in 2018. Great with his kids.

      Shouldn’t that be the default position of any dad? Plenty of great fathers who are still prize wånkers.

            @bones I don't reckon we pronounce it unzud. Surely we pronounce the N like it starts with an E and the Z like it has an E in the middle.

            Edit: Just realised you spelt unzed. But the point still stands in part. I reckon Aussies get it wrong when they give us shit for that.

                @bones ya reckon? I always imagined thought we said N as though it started with E rather than an I.

                    Didn't realise the NZ connection with Norrie. Born in SA to British parents who moved him to NZ when he was 3. According to Wiki, low funding from tennis NZ may be a reason he is now representing GB. Pity, we are well overdue a decent tennis player.

                                    How cool. Watched both the semis. In the first I was just waiting for Fernandez to get overpowered but too good.

                                    Really looking forward to the final.
