Nice to see a new poster over here, even though you’re under a new name which is perfectly fine.

Busting balls is welcomed here, some minority posters take themselves way too seriously & don’t wanna play the game. Different strokes for different folks I say.

Only guy that knows what he is talking a about is Sammy

How is he doing this jj?

This type of match makes me realize just how lucky I was to hit my AO parlay with Saba. Now if MIL does their part, at this point I have a way better feeling in Carlos than Iga winning it. Who knows how she'll be during the clay season returning from a rib injury. In any case I'll add on over 5k to this in the next few wks to get it to 100k hoping 🌩 strikes twice.

How sure are you about the French .

Iike those two

 

[samsncharge99]

0-3 yesterday (-519)

323-226-16 on the year (+5439)

WTA) Elena Rybakina -275 $55 to win $20
Pending

 

[samsncharge99]

Kvitova/Rybakina 1-1 h2h. Kivitova won 2-0 earlier this year and Rybakina won 2-0 last year

both matches on hard court. Rybakina has opportunity to win sunshine doubles. Hard to bet against her. Kivitova been serving lights out.

I'm taking the OVER 21.5 games (-118)

Rn I couldn't rationally include anyone else to win the French over Alcaraz & that includes the obv other 2. A lot more worried about MIL making the Finals over BOS even if they hold on to the #1 seed.

I wanna see Alcaraz vs Djokovic. last year they played an epic 2/3 set match. Would love to see a 3/5 match

Hold on guys

Let’s get to 1st clay event

Obv they could only meet in the Finals so it'd be interesting to see a potentially "healthier" Nadal ruin that depending on whose half he winds up in.

i'm not scared of Nadal at this point, warrior of course

but coming off injury, not playing great even when he was playing a beginning of year. Clay is his GOAT surface, but I don't see him winning. Round of 16, QF, most likely just because he is that much better than everyone else

but Nadal again Sinner, Joker, Alcaraz on clay, maybe even Tsitsipas pending his health, even Zverev I'll take them over him

 

[JDS]

Hey you tennis experts will this cocky f*** ever win a grand slam ?

 

[samsncharge99]

NO.... I personally like Nick Kyrgios, but he won't win a slam. His best chance was last year he made it to finals of Wimbledon

he's been injured to start this season and even when healthy, he is capable of beating anyone at any time. he is also capable of losing to anyone at any time.

no coach, all natural talent. he will literally be hung over, not warm up and smash 130MPH serve.

if he had any motivation he could have been great

 

[jjgold]

We are underway

 

[samsncharge99]

HERE WE GO!!! Rybakina for sunshine double. Should be top 5 player after this. 100% top 3 in world if wimbledon points

Swiatek
Sabalenka
Rybakina

SOLID 3 right there

Pegula, Gauff...consistent QF, beat the people they are supposed to, lose to top 10 players

Garcia/Jabeur, having bad season

 

[samsncharge99]

4-3 on serve in 25 minutes. Barely any rallies. Only 3 rallies above 5 shots. Quick points. Dominant serving

 

[jjgold]

It’s amazing kvitova this good at her age

It’s extremely rare other than a few hall of famers

Sammy stop hording liquor you clipped from store

Send me a carton
