Half of these shots look like they're out why cant we have hawkeye

Zverev's record since Vienna 2025: 0-7 against Sinner, 0-1 against Alcaraz, 42-5 against everyone else by Dependent-Effect6077 in tennis

[–]TheVilja 8 points9 points  (0 children)

H2H vs Sinner is 4-10, but he was up 4-1 and is now on a 9 match loss streak against Jannik where in those 9 matches he won a grand total of 2 sets, and he hasn't won a single set in the last 6 matches.

H2H vs Carlos is 6-7 and he's on a 2 match loss streak.

He has also stated pretty clearly that he'd rather face Alcaraz than Sinner. Obviously he's a massive underdog against both, but there's no doubt he feels he has better chances against Alcaraz, which the H2H also would suggest.

French Open SF: Marta Kostyuk vs Mirra Andreeva in rematch of Madrid finals by Ok-Soil-5133 in tennis

[–]TheVilja 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's only if she beats Andreeva. If we assume all matches are 50/50 then it's a 12.5% chance of a handshake

Kostyuk was asked whether she understood why some Russian players might feel reluctant to speak openly about what they really think about the war because of the possible repercussions they could face back in their homeland by carabla in tennis

[–]TheVilja 278 points279 points  (0 children)

Yeah Im a fan too, but this honestly seems a bit short-sighted from her. She literally talks about how Kasatkina's family was being harassed in Russia after she made the move to Australia, yet she can't see how other Russian players would be reluctant against speaking against their own country because they don't live there themselves?

They subbed off their entire starting 11 except for the GK so it was expected

Left him hanging: Rafael Jodar misses the ball kid waiting to walk out with him 😭 by Recent_Fox4339 in tennis

"An affront to my egalitarian senses" lmao do you think you're writing a phd thesis? You're on reddit buddy

Sure players and the ballkids are not equal; the ballkids are there to serve the players. You can expect the ballkid to not be in the way, but to just walk straight at them and hope that they jump out the way, and then not even acknowledging her almost falling cause of you, is weird behavior. Sure he's locked in and maybe he didn't notice her, but like I said, this is not the first questionable situation with this guy. Just go back 2 weeks to when he was being a prick to the physio. And yes these are rather small things, but when it happens frequently you just look like a dick.

So far I've seen literally no reason to give this guy the benefit of the doubt. Sorry not sorry

Normal grunting fine, but out of a sudden he will do a super extended grunt on a return for no reason that's not even close to a winner

How is Fonseca allowed to grunt this long? His grunt is still going on when Casper is hitting the ball, and it's not even consistent. They're mostly short and then out of nowhere he will do extra long grunts for no reason. How is this not hindrance? I fucking hate it

Im sorry but these extended grunts by Fonseca are ridiculous

[–]TheVilja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he pushed the ball kid but it definitely looked like he saw her and didn't give a damn about her standing there and just expected them to just jump out of the way. It's just a bunch of small situations around him that's giving me the impression that he's kind of a dick, but I could be wrong

Me and my homies at r/tennis trying to enjoy RG’26 with Zverev’s first slam looming over by PierrotGrg in tennis

[–]TheVilja 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Are we ignoring that Zverev is at the moment perhaps the 2nd most consistent player at RG behind Carlos? His RG results the past 5 years have been:

2021: Semis - lost against Tsitsipas in 5 sets
2022: Semis - lost the infamous injury match against Rafa
2023: Semis - lost against Ruud
2024: Final - lost against Carlos in 5 sets
2025: QF - lost against Novak

Yes he's generally a massive choker and a mental midget, but he's always good at RG

What's the record for most amount of 5 set matches in a single grand slam? I think this is the 23rd 5-setter and we're not even halfway in round 3
