roger federer has to be the perfect male specimen


f***ing unreal bloke part of me wants to be gay and marry him

Could've had all 3 slams this year.

Just seen Cilic had an injury. Got to feel for the guy

Well done Federer but this was by far the worst Wimbledon I've ever seen.

Poor tournament overall.

Most one-sided final ever?

Since Hewitt beat Nalbandian 2002
Worst Wimbledon since 96
Uniformity of courts and serve and volley merchants are causing a real problem in the game
Only federer's story lifted it above that 96 tournament
They are introducing a next gen series in November
But with some true greats of the game nearing the end
I fear the game is in for a period of torpor
Only dip into tennis now rather than when I was younger and would go to Wimbledon and on that level still quite enjoy watching the game but I couldn't imagine being glued to it anymore

Commentators saying hardly anyone plays serve and volley these days

But its been a dead tournament

1996 was indeed shit as well

Imagine tennis 5 years from now.

All the greats will be retired.

The sport is in trouble.

Might see entertaining matches of shit quality cos they are as bad as each other

Kinda like West Ham v Bolton finishing 5-4 or something

Kyrgios to be the face of the men's game.

Jesus wept.

Yes, I'm probably using the term as a bit of a catch all
I mean the robotic nature of players with the personality and flair of a table lamp
It was ok when it was in contrast to flair
Hence the enjoyment of that mueller / nadal game last week but when everyone's like it
It makes for dullsville

Del Potro will be king


Anyway 5 years is a long time for someone to emerge but it does look weak atm.

I think Zverev is the one.

Only 20.

Dan Evans will be back in 5 years. He will rule.

Djoker out

I think many people watches Tennis. I like Roger
