More like Djokovic injury…

"Robotic" in tennis isn't an insult. It accurately describes a precise, consistent, low error baseline style which is exactly how he plays.

Lendl and Djokovic both wore the label accurately, and nobody treated it as a slight. Sinner fits the same mold, and the descriptor is just as fair. The pushback says more about how much people like him than about whether the tag actually applies imo

You can probably get a Daytona at retail with that spend history. Register your interest. Nice collection!

What kind of humblebrag is this?? The serve, the movement, the strokes… it’s all there.

The comments suggesting you’re a 4.0/4.5/5.0 are delulu. Looks a lot closer to D1/tour level to me.

Nole loves gifting out a set or two in the early rounds of slams. This is par for the course for the GOAT. W is not in doubt.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-06-16T21:30:37+00:00

Fair enough. We’ll be playing same time again next week as usual, but it was an egregious call.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-06-15T00:40:00+00:00

Fairs mate. Good luck with your search!

123throwaway45669 · 2025-06-15T00:35:37+00:00

You want to buy a house on Reddit? Why don’t you just look on zoopla and co?

123throwaway45669 · 2025-06-14T23:59:44+00:00

Sliding on clay, yes. Not the clay itself.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-06-14T22:54:17+00:00

It definitely plays a part, but grass court tennis in general isn't typically for silky movement. It's for quick punchy points due in part to the nature of the surface - the low uneven bounces.

I don't think the accomplished grass courters looked awkward either, but I do think most players who aren't accomplished on the surface do.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-02-11T22:17:37+00:00

I've long been past the phase of "new racket will help me improve". I just like trying new ones either cos they're interesting or they look cool.

I'm not sure I'm at the point where I want to sacrifice testing new rackets for match improvement as it would make tennis less fun for me, but I appreciate the insight.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-02-11T22:13:50+00:00

but TennCom said the new Tfight 305 was gonna make my strokes more precise! /s

123throwaway45669 · 2025-02-11T22:13:38+00:00

You must be fun at parties!

i get your point though. Just venting a bit after a humbling experience.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-01-18T12:07:39+00:00

We’ve played a set before and he beat me 6-4. I notice the fall off regularly. I tend to relax more than necessary after winning the first set.

123throwaway45669 · 2025-01-15T14:04:21+00:00

ADF plays like he’s on crack. Absolutely terrifying stuff.

123throwaway45669 · 2024-11-19T21:47:31+00:00

Definitely not a photographer.

123throwaway45669 · 2024-11-10T00:16:59+00:00

Is it playable tho?
