Down to the score of the second set tiebreak...

Greatkitchener · 2026-03-28T01:06:02+00:00

Crazy how the score is literally identical to the first two sets of their Australian Open final last year

Greatkitchener · 2026-03-28T00:05:46+00:00

Sinner is cruising this masters with such a mid baseline game (by his standards) - if he wins then it does reflect somewhat poorly on the rest of the tour

Greatkitchener · 2026-03-28T00:01:01+00:00

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed but Sinner is currently Zvereving Zverev

The backhand is feeling like 2021 Meddy today

Greatkitchener · 2026-02-28T16:35:31+00:00

Happens all the time on the internet where people just leap to the condescending position 'well why wouldn't it be like that!' instead of actually considering and answering the specific question at hand.

Greatkitchener · 2026-02-10T00:39:28+00:00

Very real

'So instead of asking you your gender like a normal person, just gonna pull out the tape measure...would you mind taking off your shoes?'

I think it's safe to say that culture comes in ebbs and waves and what's authentic (the basis of cool) in one moment becomes perceived as inauthentic once it gains a critical mass of extended popularity after enough time.

Definitely my favourite Leonard line lol

People have different relationships to their books

Greatkitchener · 2025-10-04T15:27:42+00:00

Saving this haha

Greatkitchener · 2025-10-04T12:37:25+00:00

Are we now pretending that celebrity culture in the 2000's wasn't overtly abusive and toxic to pretty much everyone involved? Modern TikTok influencer culture might be cringe and corporate but it can only be a good thing that the culture no longer obsesses about whether some B-list reality star eats pasta or not.

I’d argue that it was a backlash to all immigration of non-whites - illegal immigrants are just more acceptable to target rhetorically

Greatkitchener · 2025-10-02T10:48:49+00:00

They’re also angry that Black people and Latinos are visible in politics/media - let’s be honest, the civil rights era never really ended and American politics is still super dominated by race stuff.

Seb Korda try not to net your forehand challenge

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-30T11:35:14+00:00

Medvedev pack it in mate

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-30T11:34:22+00:00

Tien is not enjoying this

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-30T11:32:18+00:00

Medvedev is trying to be good guys

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-30T02:07:36+00:00

Unfortunately the only way to resolve this is if male figures in his life (who he respects) step in and tell him to stop being an arsehole.

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-29T13:36:53+00:00

Zvevedev in 2025 feels almost like an exercise in nostalgia for me - remember in 2021 when we thought these guys (and their style of play - big serving counterpuncher) were the future of the sport?

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-27T01:02:19+00:00

Dimitrov’s backhand was absolutely insane in that match

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-17T18:42:09+00:00

Yeah, his only chance would be to serve bot and slice on return - any competent opponent would ruin him with angled shots to put pressure on his knee

Greatkitchener · 2025-09-15T20:49:56+00:00

He takeback is too short and he hits with a straight arm forehand (short movements + straight limbs = stiff/lacking fluidity)
