One of the best tennis matches that I've watched in a long long time indeed. At no point in the match was I confident Nadal was going to win. Thiem has one heck of a backhand as well as a blistering forehand.

Thiem just like Nadal stated post-match will be a Major title winner soon enough. He has an all-around game with a big serve to boot. The Nadal & del Potro match should be an epic one as well.

I can't remember the last time I've seen a whole game penalty, and Serena got hit with it in a grand slam final? Not a fan of that chair ump, could've shown some restraint. But also, Serena really gave it to him, then melted down. Feel bad for Osaka, she deserved her win but this will all be about Serena

I believe this is the 1st time since that Serena meltdown a few years back at the woman back line caller that cost her a suspension. She really lost it again but not quite as bad this time. Osaka outplayed her but Serena certainly wasn't on her game 100%.

This Osaka lady is going to be a force to be reckoned with in the WTA for year & years to come. She has an all-around game for sure. She is like a min-Serena with her power & versatility.

On a side note: The Joker & del Potro match is going to be an epic match I do believe. I think the Joker wins it in 4 or 5 sets but if del Potro plays as well as he has in the previous 3 matches then he has a chance to take it in 5 sets possibly.

I don't accept that computer or video games improve your tennis skills.

If you've never played actual tennis, learning or finding the game can be daunting. Actual Tennis is a challenging sport to learn for most people.

Play video games only for fun! But I think you should be try the actual tennis that will help you and take your game to the next level.

Coco will be in the Top 10 in the ATP Rankings pretty soon. Probably sometime this year. She will win her 1st Major probably either before or at the age of 18 as well. She just has a complete game of tennis. Her only weakness is her forehand that she seems to hit long sometimes.

The power & finesse game is there for sure. She's the next coming of Serena Williams although there's only ONE Serena. She will be the closest thing to her in women's tennis especially in American women's tennis.
