    Tennis majors finals are some of the best sports competitions. Any men's final going 5 is usually epic. So many great matches over the years. I can't imagine playing at that level for 5+ hours. You can't quite get the same intensity for the women with it being a best of 3, but they're still good matches.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I do wonder how long the ball was in play in those 5+ hours was? (If anyone keeps track of that?)

    I play once every week or so if someone frees up to play… been hitting balls at the handball court for a while, prefer it to gym machine cardio.. helps footwork

    Decent Wimbledon men's final matchup between Sinner and Alcarez so far.

    Also congrats to fellow PJ fan Iga Swiatek for winning the ladies finals yesterday. ::clap:
