I'm shit at Tennis but love watching it. First started watching during Wimbledon 2007. Never realised that the following year's final was when tennis already peaked for me |

Chat away! But if you're a Djokovic fan, we can't be friends! 
Ohhh, surely there are none left?  "
I’ve been a fan of his tennis for so long. Sad to see who he really is. |

I worked security on Centre Court for the full 2 weeks back in 2014, outstanding gig. Was offered it this year too but too busy to commit. Best match was an all male doubles game on the penultimate day..great to watch it up close and personal and get paid for it too |

It really was, I absolutely love Federer (who doesn't?) and hated Nadal when I was younger because he always seemed to beat Fed in head to heads but what players they both are  |

"Doesn't anyone find Emma Raducanu secy as hell????
No. "
Lol will she be a one slam wonder ? I wonder! Who throughout history has been your favourite player? I can’t decide between McEnroe and Agassi. |

I enjoy watching a bit of Tennis. As a former resident of Eastbourne I have been to watch that a few times. Amazing to see top class athletes do something you can do but make it look like a totally different sport, incredible skill and athleticism. |

Same, what legends they both are. Incredible stuff from Rafa this year, you can never count him out! |

"Love it, been lucky enough to go a few times, will be interesting to see who’s playing this year as not a seeded tournament "
It is still seeded I think, just no ranking points associated with it. Wimbledon though... It's still the pinnacle of tennis, no? |

Oh, she's still young, needs a bit of time to settle I reckon. Phenomenal achievement in the US last year. Look at Swiatek - took her a couple of years to settle after winning her first slam.
Favourite ever player? Ohhhhh, so tricky! Always loved Ivanisevic |

Damn straight, the mental and physical fitness level required blows my mind! |

I know I'm supposed to respect his tennis, and I objectively know he's a great player, but never have liked him tbh. Maybe just because I'm such a fan of Rafa and Rog. This is confirmation bias, I'm sure, but I was not surprised to see who he really is! |

Grew up watching Rafa and Roger but I think Novak is and has shown himself to be a supreme athlete. But also so skilled, so consistent and so dominant. It’s a shame he’s not a great person but he’s annoyingly still probably going to retire as the greatest ever in terms of achievement and arguably in terms of ability too.  |

No, you're wrong! Supreme athlete, yes, and he might end up with most Grand Slams but I won't be moved on ability. Fed all day for me - especially if we include the judges' scores for artistic merit! |

True. Bonus points awarded for his super elegant single handed backhand.  |

It’s why Thierry Henry is the best striker in prem history too. |
