      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.

        What's great to see is the joy these two are playing with. Exuberance of youth?

          Djoker is one game away from a finals berth. Pushed to 5 by Zverev but he's up 5-0. Showing his greatness again

                The Joker will end up the GOAT after this match (if he isn't already). Unbelievable player especially when you take into account the players he's had to beat to get win his GS titles.

                  The top 3 players in the history of the game all playing each other at or near their peak. And he's come out on top. Unbelievable

                      He is definitely a polarising figure. And I don't like his anti vaxx stand. But on court you have to admire his skill. His anticipation, and his shot making ability is superb

                            Mate of mine at work is a big tennis fan - he plays inter-club tennis.

                            Yeah, he doesn't like Djokovic, either.

                              His need to be liked is a turn off.

                              But extraordinary player.

                              Hard to speak about GOAT without acknowledging changes in game:

                              Composite racquets/hybrid strings/slowed down hardcourts/less grass.

                              Would have had his work cut out against Borg with a wooden racquet on clay!

                              But second slam would objectively make his claims near impossible to ignore.

                                  Gonna hop on the British bandwagon for the women’s final.

                                  Hmmm. She takes inspiration from Tim Henman. That is asking for trouble…
