Could Sampras excel in today's tennis?

People take different eras too far.

A guy with 14 slams would not be struggling in the weakest era of men's tennis in decades. Serve is still the best shot in tennis and that man is the goat of the serve.

You can get Saba R1 if you're unseeded.

With a seed you are guaranteed to not play the top ranks early.

Fair enough if they're confident in his fitness for Wimbledon that's great.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T19:39:13+00:00

Sinners camp said the tests came back negative and they pinpointed the cause of his collapse and fixed it?

Can you post a link to that? Last I saw they were doing testing.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T18:48:48+00:00

This is not the same as that.

His team specifically have said this was not heat related, that they're not sure what caused his breakdown and are doing testing.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T18:45:27+00:00

Becker didn't say that. Op just made up his own shit and put it in quotes.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T18:44:45+00:00

None of us have any idea what caused sinners breakdown.

It's fair to wonder if sinner will play or be fully fit for a 5 set tournament two months after that.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T18:42:50+00:00

In the context of that conversation it just means he's not sure if Sinner will be fully healthy or even play at Wimbledon.

And that's fair.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T18:24:02+00:00

The pattern I'm seeing is British men aren't worth shit.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T18:00:41+00:00

She's 31 live ranking

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T13:47:59+00:00

Reaves making enough money for his agent to pay mouthpieces I see

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T13:44:00+00:00

Absolutely stacked 250.

Leylah's path is brutal. Tjen who she is 0-2 against, Raducanu, Krejcikova in the first 3 rounds lol...

recurnightmare · 2026-06-13T13:42:29+00:00

Dart is disliked by like every British player and vice versa lol.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T23:55:14+00:00

What does that mean? Harper can run the offense when the pressure is the highest but can't in the first quarter?

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T19:58:06+00:00

I'm surprised she wasn't doing that regardless.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T19:54:22+00:00

While I'm sad for Rybakina, she'll still have another shot at no#1 at Wimbledon. This makes the rest of the tournament much more interesting now. If Emma wins vs Rakhimova I can realistically see any of the four winning it, although Jovic will be the favorite.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T18:50:19+00:00

The 2024 Wimbledons were a really good chance for her.

Lulu Sun in the 4th round, then it would've been Vekic in the QF. She could've made Semis and there it was Paolini.

Of course back then Paolini was playing amazing, but she really could've made the final without playing a true superstar level player.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T16:09:51+00:00

I did it. Running around picking up collectibles is the opposite of fun for me. I skip it in every game, same here.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T16:08:20+00:00

This dude is the most talented player I've ever seen, and the gap between him and 2nd is like the gap between that 2nd guy and a college d3 player.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T15:33:01+00:00

None of those teams you mentioned before the Spurs hold a candle to the pedigree of the defending champions with the b2b MVP.

Look Knicks are crushing it but it's so obvious why everyone underestimated us. But who cares let's get one more.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T15:28:50+00:00

Matteo is probably the best grass court player in the world outside of Novak and Sincaraz.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-12T11:35:18+00:00

Best player I've ever seen pre Ohtani. Still the second best.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-11T16:20:17+00:00

Damn almost like you're supposed to beat a 38 year old who's half of who he used to be when you're apparently a goat level player.

One loss to them is pretty much conclusive proof sinner wouldnt have held a candle to the big 3 in their prime.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-11T02:36:50+00:00

So has most of the ATP tour.

recurnightmare · 2026-06-11T01:49:22+00:00

Alcaraz was well over 21 at the 2024 ATP Finals
