    The first qualifier to ever win a slam in the open era.

    That’s some achievement, unlikely we will ever see that again. She was so far off the radar for achieving this that the media hype machine barely had time to kick in.

    Nobody was really talking about her until the start of the week.

    An amazing achievement. She almost made it look easy. Almost no nerves.

      That was great. Hell of an achievement. And didn't drop a set

      Did anyone else think that every serve sounded like a let?

        I didn't see much of it but absolutely. No idea what was causing it!

          Thought it was a sound effect at one point. Seemed to happen any time a serve was over 95mph as you could see the speed on the screen behind them so maybe it was dropped in for tv viewers like the fake crowd noises for live footy last season.

          I know there was some new type of ball being used as well, but doubt that could have made the noise.
          I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

            The tennis shoes were very squeaky on the surface, maybe it was that?

                  It's the server's foot hitting the ground.

                            Medvedev was very good last night, the commentators spent the entire match going on about how Djokovic didn't look physically there; for me he just got blasted off the court.

                            Maybe we're going to finally start to see the changing of the guard after 20 odd years with the 3 at the top

                              Would be apt if Fed, Djoko and Rafa all finished on 20 GS titles, the arguing over who was greatest would continue long after they have retired...is it Fed or is it Djoko (Rafa and his 13 French Opens makes him by far the greatest on Clay, but he is overshadowed on the other surfaces).

                                I just came here to say **** you Djokovic.

                                He rips into Simone Biles, a world class athlete who's routines could actually kill her if done incorrectly, for 'quitting' for mental health reasons, then goes on to cry himself a new arse because 'pressure'.

                                **** off, you're as boring as Pete Sampras.
