Talk About Tennis 2.0

You posted a similar post in the RANKINGS topic, and I answered there.
So, copy paste here :

I will bet you two dog-chewed balls Novak won't win
Paris is a court that favors him a lot, and yet he could not win. To me, the problem now for Rafa and Novak is the recovery time; if they have one tough match, specially a late one, they don't have the time to come back. It is the reason they are still so dominant at Slams (with the days-off schedule) but have come down to earth, slightly, on the regular tour.
Having said that:
Rafa: won't win. Not his place.
Tsitsipas: As good a chance as anybody else.
Ruud. Not his favorite surface.
Medvedev: Good chances. He likes indoor fast.
FAA: very good chances. He LOVES indoor fast.
Rublev: The one guy that should withdraw so that Rune can get in. Zero chance.
Novak: Contradicting myself here. Betting against him seldom pays off.
Fritz: good fast court player, has some very good strokes, then he fizzles. Or Fritzzles?
Rune: He would not win it; but he would not go 0-3.

He should have a protein snack mix called Fritzzles.

Pretty unimaginative names for the groups. No legends to honor?
Odd.
Green group: Felix and Taylor.
Red group: Novak and Daniil.

Agreed, not very imaginative. I'm going to guess the Red and Green are because of the Italian flag. I think they had the same names last year. In London they had different names that did honor players I believe (not that I remember any of them). Maybe it's part of the contract in Turin?

Ah, makes sense, indeed. Red and Green.
Still, the Panatta/Barasutti groups would have been more to my liking. But since they don't call...

How come Felix gets two voting spots but Fritz gets none?

STOP THE STEAL

Taking Jazz advice I was just messing around on Reddit and someone in their tennis community noted that all of the Orthodox Christians are in the same (Red) group. That is something that would never have occurred to me.

I didn't understand the posts above at first.

When you get a chance, please edit the poll for this thread. Switch the first listed FAA (no votes yet) to Fritz. FAA is currently listed twice in the poll and Fritz is missing.

Because, and I have told you before, this forum is in the wrong hands. But you people refuse to believe me

Done.
I do have an excuse, but.... nah, I don't.

Don't sweat it. Ish happens.
