During a practice session on Center Court between Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz, the Serbian player discussed the Roland Garros final between Jannik Sinner and Alcaraz.

He admitted that he initially didn't want to watch the match but eventually gave in.

"To be completely honest with you, I was in my country with my family. My son and wife really wanted to watch the Roland Garros final, and I told them I didn't want to and that I'd had enough of tennis.

For the first part of the match, we were outside, we ate, and they were very eager to get home to turn on the TV.

We got back, and I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch. But the match was so captivating that we ended up watching it for a few hours—they played for almost six hours.

It was an incredible match. I give both of them huge credit for that amazing battle, not just for tennis but for the world of sports.

It was one of the most historic matches we've ever had. It's unbelievable.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
