Yet if that was Shelton or Rune doing that, you'd be calling them a brat on here and calling for them to be eliminated.

It’s because Courier was doing it, Novak won’t do it with him. Hasn’t done one with him after the US Open.

No I wouldn’t, player have every right to get off court and recover.
He's every right to leave whenever he wants, but he's constant whinging and cheating over the course of his career, I'm not sure how anyone can support him.

Easy have loved him his whole career and a bloke showing emotion good. Only grew with me how he was poorly treated at Slams. Least he retires the GOAT and can middle finger everyone

Well done Novak 
Goat is debatable.
Winning 10% more than your opponents is not definitive by any stretch.
If you win 7 NBA titles, compared to 6, do you think that automatically makes you better?

It isn’t debatable now, we’ll take your pick it’s him or Nadal. However he’s won everything and twice.
Great bloke too
I switched off in half of his matches, due to his prolonged time between points. Nauseating.
Can't say the same for Fed and Nadal.

Ask ChatGPT and it'll tell you it is debatable and split between the 3 still.
So yes, still debatable.
Can't stand him personally (amazingly it's the excessive ball bouncing that's the tip of the iceberg for me lol) - I'm team RAFA FOR LIFE.... but it's undeniable Novak is statistically the GOAT (well equal GOAT with M.Court.... if he wins a 25th he's even more undisputed than Cody Rhodes!
).

At least neither of them had to play a red hot 18 in the first round.

Federer isn’t close, if he was he needed to win the French more than once. Looked pretty sure but has a significant losing record against the other two. It’s one of Nadal/Novak take your pick.

That was an unlucky draw for sure.

Laver I’d assume, yep can accept that nomination for sure. Missed a good chunk of his career to add to his tally unfortunately.

Who was that? For some reason, I thought you were referring to Rublev lol.

I really hope that isn't the reason...
Rightio buddy..
How fortunate was Djokovic in his last four Grand Slams when it comes to the draw? Do you complain about it then, and how Sinner being no.1 ACTUALLY got screwed over?
It won't matter he's barely holding on to a top 8 spot, I suspect ADM the supposed "choker" will surpass him quite soon. He'll get trounced by Carlos on Tuesday.
Err sorry Nadal was the worse with all his tics, took farkin forever to serve then when it was a double fault he did the same thing. Nadal kept everyone waiting. I couldn't watch him as he annoyed me with his time wasting.

He's beating guys mentally now not just with ability. Federer was doing that too even way past his peak. The Aura of the top dogs is always there until they either retire or the Alcaraz, Sinner types start beating them consistently.
