She is ridiculously hot. It makes me excited when she yells at herself in Spanish.

Need to get her and Camila on court together.

I don’t use the espn app for tennis scores.
I just google Wimbledon 2022 or whichever tournament is going on and google will have the scores at the top of the page updated to the point

I do too, but sometimes when I’m watching a 2nd match on my phone, I just check the scores thru the App I’m already using.

It’s not good

This is a pretty great match to watch, all things considered.

Halep is just dominating these rallies.

Nadal is least likely, followed by Halep. She's got Anisimova next.

Novak and Ons are your winners.

Strange how the only two people that can’t get near each other in this matches, are the interviewer and the player

It's a weak arse draw. How many titles did Fed win with a one handed backhand?



two-handed backhands are a better product. I'm with crack on this one.

What is the difference in the shots each produces?

Or, what advantages would a 1 handed backhand possess?

An elite one handed backhand is better than an elite two hander. It allows for more coverage plus it creates more angle itself

Having said that, two handed backhands are better by far on average

The one hander disappeared with the serve and volley. Look at the court today. 30 years ago the entire center would be dead and brown by the second week. But getting two handed passing shots blasted by you took the constant serve and volley away

Nothing is sexier than a one hander in his groove. Stan or Edberg come to mind. The only real advantages are reach, like pride said, and I think those guys can scoop low balls a little better than two handers.

This Schup Schup was grabbing his leg in practice. I wouldn't be surprised to see a TKO.

Who has the best backhand in the history of the sport?

It's either Agassi or Djokovic, correct?

So, you stand corrected.

If you're a serve and volleyer, a one-hander is better, I think. It's more conducive to the net game.

I wouldn't say it like that, but there can be no denying that a two-hander is way WAY better for returning serve.

Stan Wawrinka has the most dominant backhand I have ever seen

Bruno Agosteneli dominated college tennis when I played with his one hander
