He's too good to leave, but the two guys ahead of him are too tough," journalist Jon Wertheim's analysis of Djokovic's Grand Slam failures this year

Following his defeat in the US Open semifinals, Novak Djokovic became the only player in the Open Era not to reach a Grand Slam final despite making it to the final four of each of these tournaments.

The player himself, stopped in the last three Majors by Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, admitted in a press conference that he no longer really has the weapons to beat them in best-of-five-set matches. A situation perfectly described by journalist Jon Wertheim on X:

"It's hard not to sympathize with Novak Djokovic in this purgatory... He is legitimately the third-best player in the world and too good to leave. But the two guys ahead of him are just too young, too physical, and too tough... What is the unmatched 38-year-old champion to do?

Djokovic N • 7

Alcaraz C • 2

4e, 4830 points

1e, 12050 points

2e, 11500 points

Dude, WTF is wrong with you? Talk tennis if you know any.

Journalist Jon Wertheim states the blatantly obvious. He might as well have said, 'lettuce is green'.

To quit!

Apart from that, John is Jewish. He must apologise for the Israeli genocide and atrocities caused by the Jews, immediately. Otherwise, we will not care one second about what he has to say.

Novax is FUBAR since arrival of Alcaraz and Sinner .

I will try not to think about the fact that I am playing in front of him," Alcaraz questioned about the announced presence of Donald Trump for the US Open men's final.

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.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
