How long have we got to put up with Balding speaking in the background?

Jimbeam3678 · 10 Jul 2022 at 16:59

Is that who it was? I was wondering if I was hearing things

It's all over now.

His backhand is woeful, a coach would sort that pretty quick and a lot of it is related to his footwork.

Can’t imagine many wanting to work with him.

Congrats Djokovic.

I've been watching Wimbledon for over half a century, and this has been the worst men's final ever.

You'd have more job security working for Raducanu than him :cry:

It was never going to be epic, Kyrgios is far too attacking for there to have been many lengthy rallies.

Yeh, shame the other one won.

Reuben klang · 10 Jul 2022 at 17:12

Gutted.

Pigeon_Killer · 10 Jul 2022 at 17:13

Meh, shame it had to be him but gutted Berrettini missed the championships and even more gutted Nadal got injured again.

Psycho Ned · 10 Jul 2022 at 17:15

One idiot beats another idiot.

Kyrgios if he had the mentality of a Djokovic/Nadal/Federer would have won a grand slam by now. But he's 27 not 17 lets be honest he isn't ever going to change he'll always need to beat his opponent and himself.

CaptainRAVE · 10 Jul 2022 at 17:16

A difficult time in Australia? Yes, all of his own doing.

Maundie · 10 Jul 2022 at 17:17

Wouldn’t want to be Kyrgios’ missus tonight

Did I hear them say he doesn't have a coach?

I don't doubt that kyrgios is a good tennis player. But I don't think he'll ever become world class without some serious growing up and some discipline.

You just have to keep a cool level head in the final, getting worked up about mistakes just gets you frustrated and you lose focus.

Red hat, another fine incoming

Kyrgios is as good as the other top players but mentally he is miles behind. He could win tournaments if he was better than them but hes not and his attitude puts him a level below them. The fact that Nadal, Federer and Djokovic have dominated for so long is quite amazing.

19 years straight for the 'big 4' at Wimby. 8 Fed, 7 Djoko, Nadal and Murray 2.
