Wimbledon 2019: July 5th Match of the Day – Halep vs. Azarenka
Simona Halep vs. Victoria Azarenka These players share really good mobility on court. Vika is a bit more error prone than Halep, but she also has a bigger game. On a hard court, I’d give Azarenka the edge. On a clay court, I’d give Halep the edge. These two former world #1s and major champions…

Don’t wave a red cape in front of a bull? Nick Kyrgios vs Rafael Nadal This could be a fun match for fans. Kyrgios beat Nadal in Acapulco earlier this year on a hard court 3-6, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (6). That match was a bit of a circus as Kyrgios looked like he may retire…

Tennis Memories: Queen’s Club 1990
Wimbledon 1989 The Wimbledon 1989 semifinals featured Boris Becker fending off Ivan Lendl over two-days and five sets 6-4, 6-7 (2), 2-6, 6-4, 6-3. Stefan Edberg returned to the final by ousting a resurgent John McEnroe 7-5, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (5). Becker then avenged his 1988 Wimbledon loss to Edberg by taking the title 6-0,…
John Isner and Intentionally Slower Surfaces
Wimbledon decided to look into slowing its courts down and increasing the length of points after the 1998 men’s final.

Strokes of Genius Documentary Airs on July 1st
While I consider Novak Djokovic’s 5 set 2012 Australian Open final victory over Rafael Nadal to be the greatest match ever played (to this point?), this should be an interesting documentary.
