With Roland Garros just around the corner, get ready for our Survivors' Pool, You Can't Win Jack and Predictions contests.
For our SP players, remember: just the LAST NAME of the player, unless two players with the same last name play on the same day.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
She has said it. That she only plays for the money.
A career wasted (not that I think she was Slams material). but, if she played for the money, and with her looks, she could have made much more.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
Apparently, Roddick has been working with Coco on her toss..I find that funny- Roddick had practically no toss at all ! You need to be very strong to serve like him, and you won't last long, either.
Sampras or Federer or Serena would be better role models for a serve..

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
Madison Keys had a very insightful comment on Swiatek. ..'she slides so well, like Bertens did, you can't really wrong-foot her..'
Very true, I think..it is all about movement and balance, and Iga is simply the best at it. Not foot-speed, really..it is not a sprint.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
Well, maybe Roddick can get Coco to lower her toss. The higher the toss, the more precise you need to be. Roddick was one of those guys that almost hit it on the way UP.
I think his racquet helped a lot.

Re: Tennis Random, Random (On Court)
Don't tell me tennis players are not some of the most incredible athletes, in all of sports.
The level of eye/hand/foot coordination just can't be measured. Wow!
