Speed of court shows, matches arent that long, averaging 4 mins a game (I take 4 mins a game as a rough standard over time to estimate a matches length, always have done but since Novak, Rafa, Andy started changing the way the game is played it edged up towards 5 mins. below 4 is quite unusual.

 Think we're both wrong, Rafa is blitzing through the match. Glad to see Rafa playing better, the fact that he hasn't been great up until now was the reason I was backing Stan (although I like Stan too).

So I'll get it out there. Won Wimbledon junior doubles 2016. Last 16 mens singles last year.

I'm gonna nail my hat and say tsitsipas will Wimbledon this year.

Thiem for French
Tsitsipas to win Wimbledon.

I cant wait to see how he goes in Netherlands after French and then queens. But if we get a set Wimbledon and courts harden , I see him as being the next Federer.

Either way, it should be an amazing set of slams with Djokovic on form, fed did ok this week, Nadal maybe bearable, thiem looks good, tsitsipas, etc. Etx. And Dan, Kyle, cam and I have Hope's for Jay at Wimbledon to win one or two. Clay can be great practice to hone shots for grass, once you work out the movement changes.

Never seen this before: Is Rafa's racket bending/morphing at contact? Or just an illusion? Either way, sick shot.
