Quote from: From the Bunker on July 08, 2024, 11:31:21 PMGood to see Novak Djokovic give a verbal two fingers to the Wimbledon crowd. Wonder does this all harp back to him rightly not taking the Vaccine. It's good to see a man not afraid to take on the Establishment.

Grow up ffs.

Djokovic is a twat and always has been.

Djokovic made an absolute idiot of himself in that post match interview.

Alcaraz could become the greatest ever?

Demolition job so far. Hope he sees it through

Probably all the COVID/vaccine Nazis scheming to humiliate him like this.

This lad is playing some tennis..

He's won two in a row and unless he gets a career threatening injury I can't see him bate, certainly not at Wimbledon soon.

He's definitely put a few nails in Novak's coffin, that said Novak didn't have much opposition bar the final today

He's fantastic. Don't think Novak was 100% today but wouldn't have matter either way.

Wouldn't rule out Novak adding another couple before he's done but Alcaraz is going to dominate for a long time.

I think his knee isn't in great shape either though must be coming close to his end too.

Yeah, he'll certainly take a title if it's handed to him, but if this lad is on form he'll be hard to bate..

Was at Wimbledon yesterday, if ya get the chance and haven't been, go, just dandering around watching various games or sitting on the hill it's some set up.

Heartbreaking stuff for Grigor Dimitrov. Two sets up against World Number 1 Sinner and on track for his first Wimbledon QF in more than a decade and he looks to have torn a pec. Had to use his left hand to lift his right so he could shake hands with the umpire

Aye was watching it. Brutal stuff as I couldn't see any way back for Sinner.
