Alex 38597 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 He’s had an incredible career like. 3 grand slams in singles and two Olympic titles in an era where he’s played alongside 3 of the top 5 of all time, who’ve hoovered up 60 odd grand slams between them ( and counting). Like Meenzer says you have to admire how he keeps going. He’s such a unit he’s inevitably picked up injuries and there’s nothing he’s got to prove but he’s still got that never say die attitude 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 20283 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Djokovic is carrying a hamstring injury. Is there anyone able to give a decent opinion on who’s still in (Nadal is fucked and already out) that would be favourite at any stage of the tournament v Andy Murray? My own strictly amateur view would be that he’s unlikely to win it but am pretty far from being able to comment with any certainty on who could beat him… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australian is so gruelling (even by Grand Slam standards) it’s going to be tough going all the way given his age and injury issues. Would love to get wrong though.

Bad news: sadly they can still open up a return request and the feedback won't help you. Would be a totally nonsensical way to run a scam though. Sure you'll be fine man.

Blastronaut 1419 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Actually, I might have just thought of a (somewhat unethical) way to make that feedback work for you if it comes to it. Feel free to message me in the unlikely event they try to shaft you. In other news, Murray grew up just a few miles from me and is a year younger. Unreal career he's had, but while he's still competing for Gland Slams and I'm here pissing about offering questionable eBay advice (on a forum for a team I don't even really follow) on a Friday night, I'd much rather change the subject before I start seriously questioning my life choices. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
