Trivia...he was once married to Agassi's sister

Pancho Gonzales? Never broken while serving for the set? Ever? Crazy stat.

His serve was probably the best ever...to me, he is the GOAT

Didn't he also perfect the tactic of serve and volley?

I think credit for that would go to Jack Kramer and Althea Gibson...

I think these are courts in Minnesota.

A not very fun fact - Davydenko was born and lived until age 11 in a city that was destroyed by Russian troops last year. He was a Ukrainian citizen until age 18.

I can't like your post mmmm8. Thank you for the information.

Thanks!! I didn’t vote for the #5 players, Rublev and Pegula. So my quotes aren’t in those.

They also used my Medvedev quote on the tweet:

Here’s the Medvedev story:

yes, saw that.. but does that mean Tennis rating Sinner #3, ahead of Medvedev? Not sure that is right.. but close, certainly..

I assume Sinner will be #3, yes. I don’t know the results! Ten contributors voted for the top 5 ATP and WTA players. Everyone’s first pick got 5 points, their second 4 points, and so on. The only suspense is whether WTA #1 will be Iga or Sabalenka. I went with Sabalenka but expect most went with Swiatek.

Sinner prob benefits from the recently effect and beating Djokovic twice. Medvedev had more titles but didn’t improve like Sinner did (Med improved only compared to 2022). We expect him to do that well. So I think that’s why people voted Sinner as #3. I bet some voted him as #2, but how can we put him over the Wimbledon champ?
