This is exactly what I thought. I don't know what Stan was thinking to lump himself in with these guys. Can we at least have a period of excellent play before we start thinking that we have arrived? I can't stand that. People should learn from the situations they see on a daily basis.
Sometimes the "lesser" players get hot, and within that same year fizzle out. Winning one big match does not automatically make you a contender for everything going forward. Let's see, there was the year of:
Canas, Simon, Gulbis, Janowicz, Tomic, etc.
Once you get a big win, you have to be careful and put that win into perspective, because everybody's gunning for you now. You're going to have to play better than you did to get that big win going forward.
And Nole talking about it's the Big 5. Yeah, right. The Big Four is still the Big Four and until someone supplants themselves in the midst for a sustained period of time. Andy had it right, he pretty much said it verbatim.
People get so hyped over the smallest thing and allow that thing to become their downfall. I can usually it in people, their attitude, their body language, and their words reveal a lot.
You know who else better get their head on straight? The Dog. Tennis is 99% mental and a lot of these players need to recognize that.
