A fun person too, well read, good music taste aside from the Swift fandom, has good thoughts on politics in Eastern Europe. Clark needs to pay her dues. Barring a serious injury she could easily go on a Nadal type run at the French, no one is remotely close right now, she makes them look silly on clay. If she could get some more hardcourt slams she could really make a run on the all time list.

cherry68 rough couple of days for the revolution... One more change to go... ... ![:uhoh:](//storage.proboards.com/6692321/images/c8bbBnLz3a98Jzy_29H2.gif) I was travelling to Italy to vote for the European parliament, so I was avoiding spoilers. Actually not many chances for Jasmine to win, especially when it got cloudy. I was more disappointed for Bolelli/Vavassori though.

Anybody else feeling the Zverev upset a little?.......I'm asking for a friend who, um wants to place a bet because his business had a rough month and he blew a lot of cash on the hellscape that is the fncking WNBA ![:uhoh:](//storage.proboards.com/6692321/images/c8bbBnLz3a98Jzy_29H2.gif) I mean he beats Nadal, gets revenge for that little loser breaking his ankle 2 years ago, has a great serve which can bail him out, has a winning record against Alcaraz, won fairly easy in the semis, it's destiny or......coincidence.......not picking him......but....I totally would pick him if I could profit off of it......I mean if my friend could profit off of it .......

Based on their match here 2 years ago. Yes. Based on their match in Australia just a few months ago. Yes. Based on the one and only time he played a slam final (a long time ago, admittedly). Most definitely not. If he plays to the level he's capable of he is tough to stop, but he is also kind of a choker who could wet the bed as easily as he could blow Alcaraz away. He blew his semifinal in Australia from 2 sets up, he blew the semifinal here 12 months ago, he was in the process of blowing that anklebreaker match in conditions far more suited to him than Nadal, and he blew his semifinal with Tsitsipas here 3 years ago after battling back from 2 sets down. Ruud getting debilitatingly sick yesterday throws a shroud over easy predicting because his opponents condition makes it a less than convincing win that tells us almost nothing other than he got his ass kicked in the first set when Casper had his shit together. It's tough... ![:laugh:](//storage.proboards.com/6692321/images/30ulL7PvEvGt97femFHx.gif) I think it's kind of in his hands really. If he plays like he did against Alcaraz two years ago, even though Alcaraz is obviously much better now than he was then, I'm not sure there is much Carlos can do, but Alcaraz is 7-1 in big tournament finals, and even the one he lost last year in Cincinnati went right down to the fucking wire. He's not going to give it away. It all depends how the big man, um, settles.

Alcaraz spraying unforced errors in the later games of that 2nd set like pacinoyes spraying expletives while listening to boygenius or something ....standing in almost the front row of the stands to return serves

I am without speech

Alcaraz is:
*8-1 in grand slam/masters 1000 finals. *11-1 in 5 set matches. *The youngest dude to win slams on 3 different surfaces (Nadal did it at 22 and about 8 months, Alcaraz is 21 and 1 month) *The first dude to win his first 3 slams on 3 different surfaces.
