Just now, Stan said:

Boris Becker jailed for 2.5yrs for hiding assets to avoid paying debts.

Thought this said Boris Johnson and was like why the fuck is he posting this in the tennis thread. xD Now I'm not confused but I am disappointed.

He's a mad one Boris Becker. One of those athletes who just didn't find an outlet for his energy after retiring and ending up a bit all over the place. Seen stories about gambling, bankruptcy, and it's well known he has plenty of illegitimate kids knocking about.

Andy Murray on a decent run at the Madrid Masters on clay. Just picked up his first top 20 win of the season against Shapovalov and plays Djokovic in the next round. Their first meeting for over 5 years. 😲

24 minutes ago, Tommy said:

The next Nadal? :o 

 

 

He beat Nadal in the previous round. The lad is only 18 as well and he's ranked in the top 10 in men's tennis. By far the biggest prodigy tennis has seen since the "big three" on the evidence we've seen so far.

Rafa's resolve in the final set was superb. Not satisfied with letting it go to a 5th, had to dig deep to recover in that set and it paid off.

The mental fortitude of both of these players is astonishing though. Djokovic a set and 3-0 down at one point, recovered to take it to 1-1 into the 3rd set. And then Rafa down 3-0 and 5-2 in the 4th, then ends up winning. They find the physical and mental strength out of nowhere.

Yeah probably not even the way Nadal would have wanted it to end. 

Looked like a horrible injury. Hope he makes a full recovery as he's a quality player. 

Rafa in the final again though :x
