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
You may well be right, but I just can't warm to him.

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

@canefan I agree, he is a magnificent player.

Easily the least likeable of the big 3.

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.

5 sets though, Medvedev has only lost a set so far? https://www.atptour.com/en/news/medvedev-felix-us-open-2021-friday

Love listening to Martina

Gonna hop on the British bandwagon for the women’s final.
Hmmm. She takes inspiration from Tim Henman. That is asking for trouble…

TBF, it seemed to work for Andy Murray.

On a knife edge
Both brought their A game
Both going for it

Not a huge tennis fan but, yeah, you're spot on. Great to watch.

That’s the way to win a set
She Who Dares, Wins

Compared to the absolute airhead bimbos that make it to the hawt thread, I’d prefer someone who can really play tennis.
1-0 to the Brit.
Damn shame it’s 3 and not 5 sets.

All the British Gold Medal winning Olympics competitors must be going FUCK

Fourth game in the second set was huge for Raducanu

Raducan(u), Radudid
Great match

What a fairy-tale!
Came from nowhere. Qualifier for Wimbledon, qualifier for the US Open. Wins the latter without dropping a set.
Insane stuff. :clapping_hands: :clapping_hands: :clapping_hands:
