Aus Open 1/12 - 2/1 2026

Yes, but the list of such players is very short indeed. Probably no more than five of each gender.

Ayrton Senna said: coming in second is being the first of the losers.
Yes. Steffi would shut herself down for days after losing a slam final. We know those stories. But I wonder, and especially in this era in which we acknowledge mental health and related issues, how healthy is that. If making the semis of a slam is something that makes you feel like a loser, I really wonder how well adjusted you are.
Chris Lewis is more accomplished than 99.99% of all players. So is Martin Verkerk and Albert Porta. And if Iga really would feel that reaching the semis of the Aussie is "not doing well", then that shrink of hers sucks.

Rewatched Mboko beating Rybakina in Canada..severely exploited Ryba's slow movement..on the fast AO courts, Mboko and Coco are the ones who can beat Rybakina and Anisimova, with defense and movement .Paolini can, too.. I don't expect the big guns - Saba and Iga, to be able to do it . It all depends on the draw.
