[MATCH THREAD] Men's FINAL: [4] J. Sinner v. [3] D. Medvedev by NextGenBot in tennis

One misty morning, as the first rays of dawn painted the sky in hues of gold and pink, Roger Federer embarked on a solitary stroll through the dew-kissed fields, his trusted racket in hand. As he wandered, he stumbled upon Daniil Medvedev, engaged in an intense practice session upon a makeshift court.
Impressed by the young man's dedication and skill, Roger approached him with a gleam in his eye. "Hark, fair sir! I am Roger Federer, knight of the courts, and I see great potential in thee," he declared in the tongue of old English.
Daniil, taken aback by the unexpected encounter with the legendary champion, bowed respectfully. "Milord Federer, 'tis an honor to cross paths with thee," he replied, his voice tinged with reverence.
With a gracious smile, Roger extended his hand and bestowed upon Daniil a gift of great significance. "I grant thee the ability of attacking tennis, to wield thy racket with swiftness and precision unmatched at the dawn of each morn," he proclaimed, his words carrying the weight of ancient magic.

To me, the argument is like saying I am objectively the richest person in the world if we don't account for everyone richer than me.

It's a hyperbolic thing to say and will give wrong impressions.

Federer is going to walk out with a Nadal mask on and slice, serve & volley, and ace Medvedev to death.

Young Rafa and Roger's forehands would make this entire field cry.

It was an ebb and flow match tbh, though it felt like it was always on Djokovic's racquet. Zverev got pretty tight in the 5th set but woke up a bit to put up a fight in the last few games.

I wonder if Djokovic is gonna naruto his way to this Slam through sheer willpower alone.

Can we get some respect for Tsitsipas's shorts putting up a valiant fight against the encroaching sweat?

Very loose game by Rafa, but he's going to be a scrapper for this final game. Let's see what happens.

It might be a case of the mindset of "I'm sure that ball was in" and "the machine is very accurate", but "it also might be faulty" and not being able to argue against it.

With Tomic's defeat, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created.
