A total domination in the davis cup for canada team against australia, both shapovalov and alliasime managed to beat their opponents kokinakis and de minaur with the same score 2 0 and they have beaten them in the doubles as well the canadians deserved the win they both are on a different level than their opponents.
Yes the Canadians were solid in the final today, I thought Shapovalov might have been the
weak link today but he performed well to get the win. Felix AA has had a super run at the
end of the season, definitely a player to watch next year, he has definitely improved over
the course of 2022.
I didn't make a bet on today's final, I was half looking at Australia purely on the better
odds but it was hard to ignore Canada.

Yes, unfortunately it was a doubles decider.
Shapovalov was beaten in his singles match by Sonego and Felix AA beat Musetti to
take it to the decider. I believe Shapo was replaced with Felix and that was a good call.
I believe if Shapo was not replaced Italy would have a better chance.
Final today, Canada v Australia.
Hmm I'm not sure which way to go with this....Maybe Australia? Canada are favourites.

Ah it's easy to be brave with bets less than $5!
I'm normally reluctant to bet against the favourite but I saw Australia at least on par
with Croatia and the same for Italy.

It was the impromptu doubles pairing of Thompson and Purcell who beat the formidable
Mektic and Pavic which was the stand out match.
I would say for today I Italy don't win the first 2 matches and it goes to the doubles
decider Canada would be stronger. Anyway my bet is on Italy.
You've known about the game and have gone with the odds over Italy. Auger-Aliassime have took Canada to the finals. Disappointment for Italy, which is being expected to win the trophy. Italy got an opportunity and it is missed. On the other hand it is Canada's first entry to the finals. Ah it's easy to be brave with bets less than $5!

Italy was really unlucky in the doubles match against Canada 
I followed the match live and unfortunately there were a number of crucial mistakes in the last game
Italy team has not been able to reach the final since 1998! and he won the title only once in 1976!...
this year it seemed like it could make a difference since there are several top-players but nothing, sadly the winning shot didn't come this year either

Funny, I would pick Australia and Italy and favourites without knowing the odds,
actually I'm going to take a punt on both to win against the odds.
Australia @ 3.15
Italy @ 3.00
True that's funny but you already won 1 of the two bets, that's just why you chose Italy because I see Canada has a lot of chances this time, but maybe your choice will be right as your choice in Australia, but I'm not brave enough to choose Italy.actually I'm going to take a punt on both to win against the odds.
Australia @ 3.15
Italy @ 3.00
Borna Coric opened Croatia's chances to get to the finals but unfortunately, Marin Cilic didn't play well this time or maybe because De Minaur was outstanding, I'm just watched that match in the second set Cilic really couldn't do much, his opponent always got the ball back even in difficult positions to hit, and the more surprising is how one of the world's best doubles can be defeated by the Australian doubles with a tight match, totally unexpected.

Currently the Davis Cup tournament is taking place with Croatia in the semi-finals after beating Spain and will face Australia who beat the Netherlands, the other quarterfinal matches Italy vs USA and Germany vs Canada are still awaiting results. It looks like the focus right now is on the World Cup.

Damn, I totally overlooked the Davis Cup, can't believe herself hasn't been on top of it either,
even for the replays.
...and suddenly it is Davis Cup. I know that too and always wonder where the time has gone.
Unfortunately, Germany did not reach the semi-finals. It is clear how important Zverev is for the German team. Quarter-finals is too little.
It is also very disappointing for Spain. They are playing at home and have already been eliminated.
I was surprised by Italy. They have not reached the semi-finals since 2014. And that without their top players Berrettini and Sinner.

and tomorrow:

Zverev loss was the big loss to the tennis game. Mostly their country will suffer a lot. Because he made many tennis championship before the COVID-19. Many people’s inspiration is Zverev, he had influenced many of the younger generations to get in to the tennis. Tennis was in good reach like football. So young people to concentrate on tennis to earn and settle in their life. Now Zverev slowly recovering from his health issues. If he cured from all health issues, he will win the first game. Which he is going to participate in the upcoming months. He may had his first match in December or January. Eager to see his new match .
Because there were just talk about Zverev here. He has been start training at court again since 4 November. Unfortunately, he has got now a corona infection. But it should not cause as many problems as his big injury at the French Open. I hope he can start again next year with full speed. In December he wants to play his first tournament in Saudi Arabia.
Hoping he can really recover as soon as possible and play, the injury he experienced was like a nightmare at that time.But maybe it will be a big question, can he return to his best performance like before he got injured? it will definitely take time for Zverev to really get back to his peak
Players returning from injury seem to be starting from the beginning of their careers, one example is his rival, Dominic Thiem, so far he is still having a hard time competing with other young players, and there is also a player who finally chose to retire from his tennis career after a serious injury, namely Juan Marthin Del Porto.

and speaking of injuries, this could also be a factor in Djokovic' performance and
journey in 2023. An injury could prove a massive enemy to him.
We could see good progress for Thiem in 2023, he still has a lot to offer and yea Zverev
will be only starting his journey back from a big a sense.
More young players are in the competence. So, we can't have something strong to determine a particular person to be the lead throughout the year. Same as what we experienced this year, we can see more unexpected progress from players. This makes the matches scheduled during the year 2023 more interesting.and speaking of injuries, this could also be a factor in Djokovic' performance and

As mentioned, injuries were a big enemy when it comes to sportsman. Maybe he could compete with rest between series, participating only on the popular ones.
Don't forget, 2022 was seriously messed up in terms of Djokovic' season which was caused
by his COVID-19 vaccine beliefs. With bans being removed for 2023 the season should return to
being "normal".
He is the only remaining "Top 3" player able to compete over all the grand slams so I am
banking on him overtaking Nadal's record and over a 5 set match there are very few who
will be able to compete with him.

I'm hoping for Thiem to have a good year this 2022, unfortunately he hasn't been coming back, not sure if the level of tennis and gotten up, or if he is not yet ready for the big crowd mentally.
As for Zverev, yeah he has Covid, but who doesn't in the last 2 years? we have recovered already so I doubt that he won't get back to his form next month. But for me Djokovic will come back strong next year, for sure he has this in his mind because of some drama in him specially around the Australian Open tournament. But next year, he is clear to go so I expect him to bounce back hard.
I think there is definitely room for Thiem to be a threat to most players, after all he did play at
the same time as the "Top 3" but he needs to get back to his best in 2023.

I find it unfortunate that the number three tennis player in the world, Zverev, has been diagnosed with COVID-19 infection. It is really sad to hear that. I hope that he will be able to recover as soon as possible. Moreover, I also believe that this injury is not going to be as damaging to him as his previous injury, which did not cause him so many problems. As far as I am concerned, he is going to be able to play without any problems in December. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors and wish him the best of luck.

Who are going to be his main competitors for each grand slam? Alcaraz, Medvedev, Nadal,
Rune . . . anyone else?
Who are going to be his main competitors for each grand slam? Alcaraz, Medvedev, Nadal,
Rune . . . anyone else?
looking at those mentioned, Alcaraz is only one that can disrupt him next year, if he is fit
Medvedev does not stand a chance, Rune won was accidental, and Nadal is pretty close to career end (probably looking to one more RG and nothing more)
from not mentioned, I would count on Zverev, when he is back playing, others are pointing that tennis is a bit in crisis at the moment, there is no much fresh blood
Ah yes, Zverev - I so wasn't factoring him into the mix at all. Yes he is definitely another
who could trouble Djokovic.
I know it's hard to count Rune, I suppose he only came good towards the end of the season
after making a name for himself earlier in the year. He will have to prove himself early on
in 2023, the same with Felix AA.
