I honestly don’t like this GOAT thing at all. In sport you records and stats of course define your career. For different people greatest mean different measures. So depends what that definition is for you

@vika7 The number of Grand slams should be the only data to define a GOAT?

@WTA @EmmaRaducanu How did she even get there? The ranking system is corrupted! Heavens above!
English
Welcome to the Top 10 👋
🇬🇧 @EmmaRaducanu enters the ranking at No.10 and is the fifth British woman to break into the Top 10 since the system was introduced!

@christophclarey Ebden and Purcell only win as they pummeled Pavic, the guy with a broken wrist, 90% of the time. I understand ragwttung your opponent's weakness is a tactic but that crossed over into unsportsmanlike behaviour. Truly makes you wonder that it took them a 5 set tie breaker to win.
English
Ebden & Purcell of Australia win a classic #Wimbledon men's doubles final 7-6 (5), 6-7 (3), 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (10-2) over Mektic & Pavic of Croatia.
Not sure how many more of these finals will be best-of-5 here but they maximized!

@Wimbledon @josemorgado @desiraekrawczyk @nealskupski Ebden/Stosur didn't have a chance after Ebden/Purcell's men's double 5 set semi final. Terrible scheduling!

Going back-to-back 🏆🏆
@desiraekrawczyk and @nealskupski defend the Mixed Doubles title, beating Matthew Ebden and Samantha Stosur 6-4, 6-3

@Wimbledon @Ons_Jabeur @Maria_Tatjana One ageing male English commentator. Oh a late arrival of Caroline, for the ladies semi final. Wimbledon appears to be still stuck in a parochial world!

@RobKoenigTennis Which unfortunately all umpires do not manage. All umpires of Kyrgios matches allow him to create an environment of chaos and ridiculousness! And in addition he gets away with behaviour no other player ever could. Double standards and a disgrace.
English
Tsitsipas wants the environment to be as calm and non combative as possible, it suits his frame of mind to play his best tennis. Nick wants the exact opposite for him to perform at his best. He loves the chaos/circus. At the end of the day, it’s down to the umpire to manage…

Tsitsipas: There is no other player that does this. There is no other player that is so upset and frustrated all the time with something. I really hope all us players can come up with something and make this a cleaner version of our sport, have this kind of behavior not tolerated
English
@christophclarey The way Kyrgios behaves is a disgrace! The fact that all tournaments allow him to do so shows a lack of respect to all other tennis players. All tournament officials who allow his outrageous behaviour should be ashamed. This is supposed to be tennis not some reality TV show!
English
This is the headliner, of course, on Kyrgios, but take the time and listen to or read the entire Tsitsipas post-match news conference. Reveals a lot about his own character and his own code and to focus only on this does not do the dialogue justice

Brutal, brutal scenes on Court 17. After nearly four hours on court, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina gets a point penalty on match point deep in the fifth set tiebreak after hitting a ball out of the court.
Vesely has left the court. ADF is still there.

@BenRothenberg @josemorgado José, why are you retweeting this? You lower your reporting standards by doing so, one can only wonder why.

Q. About the US Open, you said there's nothing you can do at this point. But you do still have time to get vaccinated before New York to make it in time for the US. Is that something you've completely closed your mind to as an option going forward, or...
NOVAK DJOKOVIC: Yes.

@tumcarayol @josemorgado Kyrgios is a disruptor and his bad behaviour is rewarded with wild cards into tournament after tournament, which everybody of his ranking have to qualify for.
English
Enjoyed Stefanos Tsitsipas immediately picking up balls and practicing his serve without breaking stride when Kyrgios sat down to argue with the supervisor after a time violation.

@rolandgarros Why is the humidity so high on Chatrier. I understand the roof is closed but there should be an air conditioning system creating the correct temperature, humidity and air movement for the tennis players. Bad form FFT. Any complaints about Rafa taking extra time are null and void.
