16 of the last 17 australian open

i humbly suggest to
@LaverCup
to organise a doubles match with roger, rafa, novak and andy. all four together on court at the same time. on the same side please.
Nadal:" The comeback is not what's important for the young kids to learn. The important is not to break a racquet when you are down 5-1 or to discourage yourself"
when nadal reached his first roland garros quarterfinal they were:
alcaraz 2 years old
rune 2 years old
sinner 4 years old
ruud 6 years old
tsitsipas 6 years old
rublev 7 years old
hurkacz 8 years old
zverev 8 years old
medvedev 9 years old
You can close the roof
Change the balls
Change the month
Change the weather
Change the temperature
Change the audience attendance
You can’t change the Roland Garros champion

Coco Gauff to Marijana Veljovic on her coaching warning:
'I literally tell him since I was 8 years old, don’t talk to me in the match. I know you're not accusing me of anything, I'm just letting you know that it's the first time a ref has said this to me’

kyrgios: “he’s gonna be angry,if he’s allowed to play he’s gonna be a tough motherfucker to beat.[…] how many backhands you think he will miss if he is pissed at the crowds?[…] it will be one of the most watched Oz Open ever if he plays and i’ll be like, go Novak, go Novak.”
Last Slam without at least one among Federer, Nadal or Djokovic in the semifinals was Roland Garros 2004
64 Slams ago
This ends here thanks to a world pandemic and a default.
As of now Rafael Nadal is 102-2 in Roland Garros.
I don’t think there ever was anyone with a 3 digits positive margin (+100) in any tournament in tennis history.
Zverev: “for me there is nobody in the world that should be respected more than Novak”
“Where he came from, what he has achieved, he is the greatest player of all time and I think people forget that sometimes”
Everyone ATP and WTA is watching Nadal vs Djokovic.
Everyone.
Insane match.
Like watching a painting contest between Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci.

: "Mi sento al livello di Zverev, Medvedev, Thiem e Tsitsipas. Sia per classifica, sia quando giochiamo contro e penso lo sappiano. Purtroppo io sono stato fermo due volte quest'anno, ma ogni volta ho dimostrato di giocarmela alla pari".
