CAMELOT FANTASIES

dolgopolov is ranked #79 in the world.

rafa just won a tournament on grass. he should have been able to steamroll this guy.


I am not disappointed. I just know how much rafa has slipped in all areas.


it was clear months ago that he dropped his game and most of his fitness. in fact it was clear to me over 2 years ago that this was going to happen.


ground game is suspect. backhand lets him down time again because he wont give it a chance in matches and in practice.

return game is suspect and inconsistent because he wont practice returns. and he gives them all the space they need with his poor court positioning.

I just don't know why he keeps doing the same thing.

fitness is suspect. he is just going to have to work a lot harder to get out of this funk.


I just hope he can get a few matches at Wimbledon. that will be a step in the right direction.


and then he has to go get on clay. clay is the only thing that can fix his ground game.
