Djokovic is 11-0 vs Raonic. You are absolutely right @Desperado he will definitely be on court if he can walk.
I was thinking the same thing, that he needs to talk to her about how to change his game during the matches. It look like he starts with a game plan, but becomes utterly lost when it stops working. He’ll figure it out at some point.Felix AA needs to learn how to compete like Naomi, bad loss from two sets up today.
Or more likely at the US Open. Natural surfaces are just not Osaka-friendly.Congrats Naomi. A 4th major title to your name. Now let's see you win on Grass.
She's won the US Open twice. I would like her game to develop to play on Grass and clay.Or more likely at the US Open. Natural surfaces are just not Osaka-friendly.
Isn't there a significant Serbian population in Melbourne? I feel like he gets more support at this event then most, but maybe his recent antics have changed some opinions in Australia.I hope Medvedev knows he's got a whole country barracking for him to win tonight and beat Djokovic. Please, please beat Djokovic. PLEASE.
I used to like the Joker, but man has he turned into a nutcase these past years. Or was he always one any I just didn't notice?Great to see Djokovic’s fan base booing the mention of vaccines....
Were they booing the vaccines? I couldn't tell if it was the vaccines or the mention of the government, because they booed the government again when the woman speaking thanked the government with helping to put on the tournament.Great to see Djokovic’s fan base booing the mention of vaccines....
He's got a history with this sort of thing - the pandemic has just brought these issues to the surface - there's been the guru, the tank thing from a few years back, and the anti-vaccine thing has come up before last year.I used to like the Joker, but man has he turned into a nutcase these past years.

After Medvedev blew it at breakpoint 40-0 and needed to catch up 3 points in a row, it was over (for the set and mental game).I hope Medvedev knows he's got a whole country barracking for him to win tonight and beat Djokovic. Please, please beat Djokovic. PLEASE.
Wimbledon Spring press conference earlier today (April 27): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVcFtFWqClMWe are currently working to a spectator capacity position of around 25%, based on the current Sports Grounds Safety Authority guidance, but we will remain flexible as we await the outcome of the government’s Event Research Programme and clarity on the likelihood of restrictions relaxing beyond 21 June.
Bolton added: “We very much hope 25% is a minimum position from which we can build - it is our absolute desire to enable as many people as possible to safely attend The Championships this year. At the heart of our thinking is the intention to create the mix of spectators for which Wimbledon is known, while also working hard to protect the financial performance of The Championships, including the surplus that we deliver for the benefit of British tennis.”
Looking beyond 2021, the AELTC also announced a significant development to enhance The Championships, and open up tennis, for the future. From 2022, to coincide with the centenary of Centre Court, Middle Sunday will become a permanent part of the tournament schedule, turning The Championships into a 14-day event.

The press conference shouldn't be a requirement.I think they all did the right thing. Press conferences are part of being a tennis player. If they made an exception for one player what would it lead to?
I wish her all the best as well. She did the right thing withdrawing if she wasn’t up to doing the whole thing. I hope she will be ok for the Olympics.
