I really respect him for coming when he wasn’t at 100%," Sinner reacts to his Wimbledon victory

For the 4th consecutive year, Sinner has advanced to the round of 16 at Wimbledon. Without difficulty and facing a diminished Martinez, the Italian wasted no time securing a 6-1, 6-3, 6-1 win in just under 2 hours of play. After his victory, he spoke on the court with the tournament's microphone:

"Very happy, but it’s true he couldn’t serve properly with his shoulder injury. So I really respect him for coming when he wasn’t at 100%. I just tried to stay very solid with my shots. Thank you all for coming, and to all the athletes here in the stands. Compared to you, I feel like I’ve won nothing. It’s a huge honor to play in front of you."

A passionate Formula 1 fan, the world No. 1 also responded to questions about the F1 Grand Prix taking place this week at Silverstone (England). While he doesn’t plan to attend, he still hopes to find a way to watch it:

"No, I’ll stay focused, but I’ll organize my training sessions so I can watch the race. It clashes with Wimbledon, but that’s good because it means I’m still in the tournament.

I guess if it's just a strained muscle that will heal, no big deal. But if it was something else that could be further injured and possibly require an extended recovery or even surgery ... and risk permanently weakening his serve ... well, not too smart.

There are also contractual obligations players have to perform to get paid.

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.

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.
