Djokovic has totally ruined the sport I love
The fact there's literally no one (barring Alcaraz when he isn't injured or Medvedev when he plays out of his skin) that can stand up to Noledemort on a regular basis shows just how weak this era is
Sick of it!
Totally agree. We’re looking at some dire years ahead and sadly, I can only partly blame Novaxx. If I were him and knew that barely anyone among the younger players are at that level, then I wouldn’t retire either. He’s free to break every possible record and keep those records for a loooong time, because there is nobody coming up. I fully expect him to win the calendar slam next year.
When Sampras retired with all those grand slam titles, Federer was already there, literally beating the man at Wimbledon and then taking over. With him came Nadal and Djokovic (a bit later). You had players like Murray too. If poor old Delpo‘s body hadn’t betrayed him like that, he would have won more than one grand slam title, I‘m sure. But right now, men‘s tennis isn’t looking great. I see the talent in players like Sinner, Ruud, Rune, Rublev etc. but it seems like a lot has to come together for any of them to win a title. Medvedev is the only one who gets closer to the big titles.
As for Alcaraz, I fear his body is going to give in rather sooner than later. His exhausting way of playing seems to catch up with him towards the end of seasons, which is understandable. I just hope he can avoid any major injuries.
