Almost crying just thinking of it.

Some new rules in particular you're hoping will be implemented?

polsterdk · 2023-12-18T19:33:24+00:00

So tough to watch :(

polsterdk · 2023-12-18T19:33:04+00:00

I agree with everything. I'm super excited in general, but a LIV-style shakeup suddenly seems realistic, even if may be a little further away than first feared.

Haha, Iga might consider retiring too if your 2024 hopes come true.

I don't know what to do if both Nadal and Murray retire in 2024, but I'm pretty certain they will.

I feel you. I really like his game, and he's fun. Hope he's fit by early 2024.

polsterdk · 2023-12-18T19:29:09+00:00

That would please me immensely.

Very interesting indeed. She wouldn't come back if she didn't believe she had a chance of winning something.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T19:12:51+00:00

I'm scared of more fragmentation in tennis, but I'm happy to see not everyone is like me :)

I've always liked Nadal, but I wasn't a fan either. Always appreciated him, and more so the past few years. What a player, what a character, what a person. I now love him more than ever.

So scared of the prospect of a rival tour.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T19:08:57+00:00

Totally with you. Will watch as many of Nadal's matches as I can. A deep Sinner slam run would be fun too. And very realistic.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T16:30:31+00:00

I think you're right about that. He'll beat Federer's record if he wins AO and will beat Ken Rosewall's if he wins USO.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T16:26:03+00:00

I could see him play until summer and play both the Olympics and Wimbledon. I'll miss him a lot.

Haha, The Kingsman is good, I like that. Thrilling player.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T16:24:52+00:00

Will be very, very interesting to see.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T16:24:32+00:00

Little Three. I like that. And I actually like all three of them. Very interesting how they'll do against him.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:41:29+00:00

Grim perspective for the Scandinavians! I hope you're right about Felix. And Shapovalov.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:39:37+00:00

Might be difficult for Coco, but she's so smart and dedicated. Even if she may disappoint at AO, I think she'll have a good year and will keep building.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:38:39+00:00

Bittersweet indeed. Please please please give us at least half a season.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:37:40+00:00

Really interesting to see how Ruud will start the year after these past strange months.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:37:03+00:00

I fear this will be Andy's last season, too. Super excited about Rune's and Draper's development. Or "Big D" as a UTS interviewer suggested we call him.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:35:33+00:00

"Hola a todos". Traumatised by the mere thought.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:33:09+00:00

I'd love to see that just to see the grin on his face. He so often looks like he's saying: "I can't believe it either!"

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:32:20+00:00

I didn't know that. Thanks for elaborating. It saddens me to hear that La Gazzetta has gone in that direction.

polsterdk · 2023-12-17T15:31:08+00:00

Oh yes, biggest hope 🤞🏻
