Assuming he is the guy in the yellow pants, that is pretty good skiing

Yes, very hard to find an equivalent..@meganfernandez suggested Wawrinka..could be a better oneponchi101 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 08, 2021 4:19 pm And thinking more about it, Delpo and Serena.... ugh, I can't buy that comparison, Ashkor. Delpo has a bazooka of a FH, and a very good serve, but the rest does not match with Serena. He was never a great mover, and the BH was not a defining shot.
It is tough to find the ATP version of Serena. Even if, as I said, I would go with Roger

The are Czech and they train at Mouratoglou. They just played each other in three consecutive ITF junior finals at the highest level. Linda won 2 and Brenda won 1. This tweet is from the R1 of last week's tournament, which Linda won.

He was a competitive skier before he chose time full-time, right? He had to choose between skiing and tennis.

Re: Tennis Players Random, Random 2.0
Sincerely, if I were his coach, I would hide his skis. Even if you are pretty good skiing can lead to some bad injuries if you fall. He was going down a groomed slope, but anything other than that, I would avoid (if I were him) until after retirement.

Re: Tennis Players Random, Random 2.0
Jannik was grew up in a town filled with ski resorts and his parents worked at one of them. He was a competitive skiier when he was younger. Yeah, he's going to ski.
It's a risk sure, but something he loves. And having an issue with Jannik skiing but no issue with various other extracurriculars that can cause injury seems odd to me, many of them get applauded. I don't remember anyone on here telling Novak to stop skiing.

I'm guessing most people here wouldn't care if Novak hurt himself. I didn't know he skied.JazzNU wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 9:58 pm Jannik was grew up in a town filled with ski resorts and his parents worked at one of them. He was a competitive skiier when he was younger. Yeah, he's going to ski.

Re: Tennis Players Random, Random 2.0
He loves it. Takes the kids too. He's posted videos of himself on the slopes in the past, I think they're mostly in his Stories though. If you see Jannik's post on IG, he's one of the top comments. Similarly grew up around skiing and considered it over tennis.dmforever wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 10:21 pmI'm guessing most people here wouldn't care if Novak hurt himself.

And while it's true that Nole's well-being is not a big concern of mine these days, I've never wished injury on him. I just want him to stop being an angry jackass.

I said if I were his coach. If I were his buddy, I would be asking him to go down a black slope and teach me a bit.JazzNU wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 9:58 pm Jannik was grew up in a town filled with ski resorts and his parents worked at one of them.

No, Martina! It is basically prostitution of a reputation.

Re: Tennis Players Random, Random 2.0
RHOM was a mess before I assume it'll be one again. I'm surprised the wife is a real housewife and not a friend of, that was the rumor and seemed more in line with what Martina would be okay with.
