For Patrick McEnroe, there's one favourite we haven't thought of yet

Tuesday sees the start of the quarter-finals at Roland Garros. More than ever, the question of who will win the title is on everyone's lips. On the women's side, the question seems to have been quickly resolved, given Swiatek's undisputed domination, but on the men's side, the debate is still raging.

In this respect, Patrick McEnroe's opinion is very interesting. Indeed, in an open question, he wonders whether Grigor Dimitrov might not enter the discussion: "Could Grigor really do it?".

What is certain is that the Bulgarian is having a superb tournament in Paris, as demonstrated by his fine victory over Hurkacz in the eighth round (7-6, 6-4, 7-6). Above all, the world No. 10 will be trying to climb a mountain called Jannik Sinner.

Non classé

44e, 1180 points

Hurkacz H • 8

Dimitrov G • 10

Sinner J • 2

I can remember thinking Dimitrov had a lot of potential when he was an up and coming. But he got to a point where if he was going to progress in the rankings his game was going to have to improve. But it didn't. Like many, he reached his peak short of what was needed. I'm actually glad to see him playing at a higher level more consistently now. However, part of his problem is the mental aspect of the game. He tends to collapse the greater the pressure gets and I strongly suspect that's what we'll see here again. Sure, he'll be competitive, but likely Sinner will easily take control of this match pretty quickly.

Djokovic in doubt: "Not sure I'll be able to play my quarter-final".

Insolite - Medvedev really had no answer to De Minaur: "I need something".

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.
