it is getting a little boring with Djokovic dominating, i don't see Tsitsipas being the next number one player, maybe Medvedev or Thiem, Tsitsipas showed good quality tennis on clay, but still did not defeat Djokovic, from my opinion i think Thiem would be the next number one player, i have seen him play on hard with no problem and actually pretty good, and also on clay, didn't see a lot of grass tournaments though.

Boring but at least his games are not like Federer era when he was just winning everything so effortlessly. I know a lot of people like Fed better as a person but I personally think tennis is the stage for personalities like Djokovic, who want to entertain us more than anything else.

Guess Djoko is favorite now for Wimbledon yes?

I dont have a problem with Djokovic winning everything he is from Serbia from my country so im happy. Medvedev,Tsitsipas and other players arent even close to him and they dont deserve the first place in the world honestly. Federer before didnt have any competition and won it all easily once nadal and djokovic came he was useless i dont even consider Federer as the second all time great. Nadal and Djokovic are the best currently in the history. Djokovic can take this year if he wins it all the name of the greatest of all time

Federer was a very favorite tennis player and had a lot of fans.
Everything changed when Djokovic came and got involved in the fight between Federer and Nadal for the best tennis player of all time, and when it became apparent that Djokovic was better than Federer and Nadal.
This fact, as well as Djokovic's behavior on the tennis court, brought him a lot of negativity and attacks by the media and fans.
The fact that Djokovic withstood all these attacks and remained the best speaks volumes about his mental strength.
Regardless of the number of GS titles won, I think it can already be said that Djokovic is the best tennis player of all time.
Djokovic proved it when he convincingly beat Nadal in Paris this year.

Yeah, it's obvious that Djokovic will be the main man in Wimbledon.

I don't see it boring though, it's not up to Djokovic, it's up to the competition. If they want to stop Djokovic from winning another major grand slam, then they have to do something about it. And it seems that Djokovic is getting his second wind in his career. After a injury in the last 3 years, he come back strong and never look back. And even we have this young generation coming up, Djokovic is simply the best right now.

^^ I also lost on this parlay obviously. Credit to Humbert to beat Rublev who was really
overpowered, it was close but Humbert indeed is playing very well.

Berrettini went well overall to win at Queens, Norrie pushed him for a bit and
the 3rd set was even to a point. At the start of the 3rd set I placed a single bet on
Berrettini knowing that my parlay had lost so I was able to recover some lost funds.

As I have said, F. Auger Aliassime vs Humbert is going to be close and it can go either way. And in the end, it was Umbert who muscle enough energy to close the game in the time break.

So it will be Umbert vs Rublev in the Halle final. I will go with Rublev by 3 sets win.

Yes i'm with you on that, I have a bet on Rublev to win also with Berrettini to win
at queens against Norrie.

Rublev won Rotterdam in March and hasnt featured much since so he will be looking
to win his second tournament at Halle and I think Berrettini will just be too strong
for Norrie [hopefully]

You give me some idea, so I parlay Rublev and Berrettini here @1.90 with boosted odds.

ML is not too attractive to me, so I'm on a parlay to increased the odds. And I felt that the two can win their respective matches here and I do hope that there will be no surprises here.

Berrettini won, unfortunately Rublev lost his match against Humbert so my parlay got destroyed. Sad

Too bad I thought that Rublev had this game against Umbert, but during the first set, he was broken early and can't get back in the match, although he has chances of on two break points but he wasn't able to capitalised on it. In the second set, it was close, going into tie-break, but again, he was overpowered by Humbert as he was very aggressive.

Grass is the best for hard hitters such as Berrettini, Rublev and Humbert, all of them play aggressively, Berrettini won and it was kind of obvious, unlike Rublev vs Humbert, it was a risky one there since both are good hard hitters, and grass really helps, it was a close match between them, too bad for you Humbert managed to win.

As I have said previously, Rublev is not sho-in for the title as Humbert is really playing very well.

So it's a tough call to bet on Rublev, probably the best bet is on handicapped, although I haven't check it prior to the match.

For Berrettini, I really admire his player, grass or clay court, he is on top of his game. Look for him to develop in the future.

It seems to me that Osaka has a predisposition to become a great champion if she overcomes her psychological barriers.

Absolutely agree about Osaka. I have a feeling she would have had much easier time if she played 20 years ago when there was not so much media demands on the players. These days with all TV conferences plus social media it is much tougher on players who don't fish that kind of exposure.

WTA and media should have been a bit more understanding as well. I know it is against the rules but if somebody has serious documented mental condition I think it would be in everybody interest to let her miss a couple of conferences if that is what it takes for her to compete.

Osaka is by far my favourite player on the womens tour and I am still in shock at how
she was not given any concessions for the media duties she had to comply with, it all
seemed a bit blasé at a time when mental illness is getting more recognition about
how serious a matter it is.

It's often about the legends in the men's tennis world, but have people ever thought about what it was like in women's history? Steffi grave was virtually unbeatable in the 90s, was dethroned by Hingis and then came the Williams sisters. Unfortunately, those generations ran into each other, so that no real showdowns were forthcoming.

You forgot about another top tennis player, Monica Seles.
Between 1990-1993 she was the best tennis player in the world and Steffi Graf might never have become the best and won so many GS and other tournaments that Monica Seles career was not tragically interrupted after a fan attack at a tournament in Germany.

Yeah between those years she was able to win 8 GS titles which was an incredible achievement including the record as the youngest player to win the French Open, unfortunately after that incident, she had a hard time getting back to peak form.

4 Finals GS and being able to win all of them proves her ability to become the next legend, She needs to overcome psychological problems.

In fact, it is a pity that after Serena we do not have a great champion in women's competition, because that is why the interest in women's tennis is falling.

Matteo Berrettini dreams of being the first Italian tennis player to triumph on the grass of the historic London tournament of Queen's, a warm-up cup before Wimbledon. No one, from Travaglia to De Minaur passing through Murray and Evans, has been able to counter his very powerful first serve. Maybe the most lethal weapon he has together with that forehand cross court that can become a pain for anyone. And today's final against Cameron Norrie's nothing but the right prize for this fantastic ride.
My bet is on him
