@operskapevacica @TheTennisLetter Agreed, the only part that doesn't fit is talking to the media... Coaches are not to become the center of attention. He was talking to the media about things that needed to stay between him and his player.

@TheTennisLetter It's called Balkan tough love.

Stefanos Tsitsipas on Goran Ivanisevic calling him the most ‘poorly prepared player’ he’d ever seen & claiming that he was in 3 times better shape than him “I didn’t see any point in it. If it was a way of him pushing me into working harder and getting my shit together, it was definitely not the right tactic. I was really hurt. “I never expected that a coach could do that to me, and the worst thing is what he said was not true. I was not fit because I had been injured. I hadn’t been practicing properly for over two weeks. It was like he kicked me when I was already down.” Source: thetimes.com/sport/tennis/a…

RARE Federer point, the point construction is so beautiful 😍 does he have the best slice & FH of all time?

@josemorgado Big ask of Stan as Baez although not in his greatest form, he is a very tough out on clay. But hey 🙏

DRAW IS OUT in Monte-Carlo. A first ever Alcaraz-Wawrinka match is possible if Stan d. Baez in R1. Musetti and De Minaur on Alcaraz’s half. Medvedev, Rublev, Auger-Aliassime, Zverev, Tsitsipas/Cerundolo and Ruud with Sinner

@BarclayCard18 Oh come on, he would still minimally take on Wimbledon. That version had the perfect level of aggression and variation to trouble anyone on a slick surface.

If you dropped 2017 Roger Federer into the ATP Tour right now, how do you reckon he'd do? 🤔 For me, it's actually one of my favourite versions of Federer but I don't reckon he'd be winning majors. Probably top 5 though!

@Ubitennis What a ground breaking statement... Sarcasm! Btw in tennis consistency over time pays off. Novak is a great example. If Sinner stays healthy, he certainly can end up achieving more.

Stefano Massari: “Sinner può essere più costante ai vertici. Ma il picco di Alcaraz è più alto” ubitennis.com/blog/2026/04/0…

@texansub @TennisChannel Far from it...

@TennisChannel another spoiled rich brat thinks it is all about them and they should always have their way. Very spoiled by rich parents

@audiolympics @kela9123 Sampras was the next level and retired as the slam leader of his generation. To say he needed to "improve" his backhand to hit next level seems silly as he was it. His BH was exactly what he needed to execute his aggressive style of play.

@Sliv76 @kela9123 Where did I say he didn’t hit a very high level?

Top players who really need/needed a better (or any) backhand to hit the next level: Berrettini Sampras Tsonga Roddick Gonzalez Lopez Karlovic Tsitsipas Raonic Isner

@AlemTenis Btw for those saying Cincinnati... It would be a travesty since it is the oldest tournament in the USA still played on its original city. Also it has great attendance since the Midwest in America loves tennis.

Paris ou Cincinnati.

@AlemTenis None, but if any I would say Paris as it already has a slam and it is always one that many end up skipping. But what we need is to add one on grass.

@IgorWright @papodetenisreal A "era Big 3" involve no minimo 5-6 geracoes (assuming nova geracao a cada 4-5 anos). Comparar com o momento atual e bem dificil... E sempre bom lembrar que Big 3 players ainda ganharam muitos jogos contra essa nova geracao.

@papodetenisreal Há uma subestimação absurda da qualidade dos jogadores dessa geração. O top 100 joga num nível muito mais alto e parelho que na era Big 3. O top 10 é que está desequilibrado a favor de Alcaraz/Sinner e isso tem muita relação com o jogo ser muito padronizado em qualquer condição.

EXATAMENTE. Sinner e Alcaraz dominarem o circuito NÃO NECESSARIAMENTE tem a ver com a "padronização" de quadras e bolas mas o Federer É UM CARA EXTREMAMENTE ELEGANTE. Ele NUNCA vai falar o real motivo do domínio de Sinner e Alcaraz no circuito (Que está atrelado ao fato da qualidade dos adversários serem de um nível MUITO abaixo da dupla).

Countries who have qualified for EVERY FIFA World Cup: • Brazil 🇧🇷 End of list

@Haussmann941221 @mundodotenispod Nao defendendo o cara, mas ele usou a carreira inteira do Federer como exemplo nao like for like na ideade. Mas a comparacao e erronea mesmo porque o Fed foi aprendendo a se preservar com o tempo. E no inicio da carreira jogava em todos os torneios possiveis.

@mundodotenispod Estava mesmo, não chegava na metade das finais que o Alcaraz com a mesma idade.

Melhor ter ficado calado

@realdevdp_ If Fed had been favored we would have more grass court tournaments... Also you overlooked that Fed played really well on clay, where he would only lose deep in the tournaments likely to a guy named Rafa & another named Novak. Also Novak has won plenty of clay so why mention him?

Its funny how people say Nadal should’ve adapted his game to win more outside of clay when that same argument could be used for Djokovic and Federer outside of fast courts. The only difference is that they had more tournaments on the tour calendar that naturally suited their game

@Djoko_UTD Oh the aggressive forehand backspin is pretty rare nowadays 🙌

Throwback when Roger Federer hit one of the rarest shots in Tennis… Forehand Slice winner, it just kissed the ground and rolled off, incredibly rare shot 👏

Best Miami open finals: 1. Federer over Nadal (2005) 2-6, 6-7, 7-6, 6-3, 6-1 2. Sampras over Kuerten (2000) 6-1, 6-7, 7-6, 7-6 3. Djokovic over Nadal (2011) 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 4. Agassi over Sampras (1995) 3-6, 6-2, 7-6 5. Federer over Ljubicic (2006) 7-6, 7-6, 7-6

@jmgmoron Roger, Rafa, and Novak 3 of the greatest ever and all have been spotted doing the same. At the USOpen Roger was seen cleaning multiple practice courts that other players had left littered. Carlos is keeping the humble/respect tradition. 👏

A mucha gente de aquí le puede parecer una bobada o algo "normal" que Alcaraz pase el rastrillo para dejar la pista preparada para el próximo que la use, pero de verdad... No es lo habitual en este tipo de personalidades. He visto con mis propios ojos a muchos Top dejar las pistas de entrenamiento con basura tirada, sin adecentar y pasando olímpicamente de todos los demás. La educación que tiene Carlitos es tremenda y eso habla muy bien de él.

@Brnas05576799 @SEEWIRE @BarclayCard18 🤦🏻‍♀️ I think you’re projecting… To say that Fonseca has no top tier potential is to disagree with pretty much every player & tennis expert out there. But whatever, you are the only one who understands the sport. Feel free to point out the flaws on his FH, BH, Volley, Serve, etc.

@Sliv76 @SEEWIRE @BarclayCard18 I don't hate the kid. I just think he doesn't have enough round game to be top tier. If you think he has no technical faults I think you need to switch tp watching cricket.

With every passing Sinner match at Masters level, Fonseca holding those 3 set points in Indian Wells looks more and more incredible tbh. Played so well, super motivated by the match, right on the brink, but Sinner STILL took the set.

@BarclayCard18 Yep, that match is the only one where I felt Sinner was actually concerned. But he was able to figure out how to get out of the jam per usual... Excited to see if the trend with Sinner will continue on the red clay.
