Very surprised by the scoreline. Surprised, but not shocked, by the win: from what Colette Lewis says, McNally is part of the next wave of very gifted juniors. Creating an issue for the ATP: if the 18-22 year-olds are #NextGen, what's this lot of 15-17s - #NextNextGen?
Not surprised at all by Luke's loss, I don't know about #NextNextgen but John McNally's set up is more a little pod within the USTA junior set up with coach and mum Lynn an award winning junior USTA development coach, not delegating but continuing to coach both John and his precocious sister Caty.
I wonder whether this is sustainable long term, both look likely to translate their early promise to the adult tour perhaps simultaneously despite their 3 year age difference so perhaps logistically possible given the high level of US domestic tennis. It will be interesting to follow.
