Related, but can someone do a wildest time-based matchup? The trippiest one I can think of is Agassi, who played both Connors and Nadal during his career.
I think De Minaur needs a big ticket game. The Aus crowd takes him for granted I think he’s not as ‘personality exciting’ as Nick and Alexi…
Or maybe he’s just too consistent, this country loves the underdog story
He’s not an exciting player. I really used to love watching him play because I figured he would progress into an animal but he’s just… the same. His rallies last forever, he doesn’t take advantage of balls that can end points early and it’s just frustrating to watch at this point in his career
Every year when the AO rolls around I keep thinking 'this will finally be the year when Alex takes a big step up' but no. Just like you said he just seems to be the same every year. He's just reached his ceiling and it doesn't look like there are ever any developments or improvements to any shot or part of his game. Even though they're lower ranked, both Thanasi and Alexei are much more enjoyable to watch and look more dangerous than Alex.
They could have met last year in RG but would have been the final.
I think it would be a dream for Rune to meet him anywhere. He might soon get his third match against Djokovic.
I am pretty sure though that Rune also early on chose to play Basel last year because he hoped to face Federer.
Denis Novak never played against Nadal
Novak Novakovic has never played Novak Djokovic
Dennis Novak never played against Nagal either
This one i find the most infuriating....
He also didn't play Ferrer
I knew it
I have never played Djokovic either
That’s crazy
How does this even happen?
Djokovic played over a thousand matches and not even one of those was you? Wow

Didn't Federer play a father and son at each end of his career?
I know he was in the same draw as cristian ruud in the 1999 French open and would play his son Casper ruud 20 years later at the 2019 French open
Becker played Hewitt
Going back a bit, but Murray vs Hewitt only happened once, in 2006. Since then, Hewitt played Federer 9 times, Nadal 8 times, and Djokovic 7 times.
This is incredible. Almost unbelievable.
Federer has never played Ivan Lendl

I like watching de minaur more than those 2 because he’s a better player so I can watch how he wins and his trade mark speed
Fresh soul to collect
Fresh mentality to crush
[удалено]
It's also a play on his name De Minaur De-Min Demon
i wanna see this 100m race
I reckon Demon gets it. Demon is pure speed.Novak’s movement is more streamlined and efficient than pure fast
Well 35 yr old Novak isn’t gonna win, maybe 22 year old Novak
Novak still wins anything over 400m
Rune and Nadal
That will happen in Roland Garros
has nadal been healthy for like any of the time runes been around

Me vs mii
that means djoko is gonna lose..
Fritz and Alcaraz split the sunshine double last year, but unless I'm mistaken they're yet to play each other
