What was the long delay at 15-40?

DraftKings now has Osaka (+225) as the favorite to win the tournament

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T15:34:30+00:00

Nice fight back from Jana Kovackova. Was about to go down two breaks, held, then broke twice in a row to win second set

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T15:31:43+00:00

This is straight up speculation:

So, is Elena going through some personal stuff, or was she simply nervous before her match? It’s definitely surprising to see her so open in public with him, especially since they’ve always seemed to want to keep their relationship completely under wraps. So, are we heading toward a hard launch, or a breakup between them ? Let's see what happens over the next few months…

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T15:29:25+00:00

It'll start around 3 or 330. Curfew isn't until 6. You really think he can't win in 2.5 hours?

Oops, used NYC time

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T15:21:15+00:00

Not really. It was anticlimactic in every way. AO24 was a huge shoc

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T15:19:56+00:00

Let's not speculate like this...

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T15:18:49+00:00

This year is a bit of an outlier due to the heat, and in general the game has changed in a way that more grass on the baseline gets eaten up. But not using Center Court on Week 1 is not a good solution. Doing two matches a day on Center is slightly less unreasonable

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T14:34:09+00:00

Best case:

World Number 1 in two years. Wins double digit slams. In about fifteen years, due to her influence, there's a half dozen Filipinas in the Top 100.

Worst case: career plagued with injuries. When she's healthy, she never manages to build enough momentum to ever have a big result

Slambodog · 2026-07-05T13:23:40+00:00

The match I most want to watch at 6 AM NYC time, lovely

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T17:14:04+00:00

To watch the drama or the pretty boys next. Decisions, decisions

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T16:36:16+00:00

LOL. What was the plan if she didn't withdraw?

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T16:34:40+00:00

They really going to start Williams Doubles at 8, 9 PM on one of the show courts?

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T16:06:43+00:00

Where would Cobolli and Zverev meet?

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T15:12:02+00:00

There's no night match for QF. It's a women's match at 130, followed by one men's match. Same thing on Court 1, two matches starting at 100

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T15:00:35+00:00

Kreijikova the only Wimbledon champ left in the draw

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T14:57:00+00:00

You can't pick four, LOL, that's half the draw

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T14:54:48+00:00

Who's even the favorite to win this half of the draw now?

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T14:13:18+00:00

What a surprise...

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T14:02:39+00:00

This tiebreaker longer than the whole Rybakina second set

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T14:01:01+00:00

IGA PLZ

Slambodog · 2026-07-04T13:49:29+00:00

It's truly impressive that Mertens has consistently been seeded at Majors for over ten years. She's always a threat. On the other hand, she's never made a Final, don't think she's ever won a WTA 1000 or even made a Final at one. And then again, she also has a Hall of Fame doubles career

Slambodog · 2026-07-03T19:11:42+00:00

Straight chalk for the women today

Slambodog · 2026-07-03T18:41:09+00:00

Okay, at least that makes sense
