general masterclass calls it like he sees it.
his trained eye for the sport and his immense knowledge of the game itself and exactly how it is played is what allows him to call it with sublime objectively.
he knows and understands exactly how the war is waged on the battlefield (tennis court) in modern times.
the sport has changed. it is now more demanding than ever before.
more later.
I call it like I see it, too. And I don't see Federer winning anything. I also don't see one negative word about him, or pictures showing him at fashion shows or anything else that he does. What's really striking is that dogging Rafa out comprises 97% of both of you all's posts. It's overkill and one would have to be blind not to see it. Others have remarked on it as well, so I'm not the only one. It's old and it's tired. And, IMO, it's why we can't keep tennis fans here on Camelot. No one wants a steady diet of negativity.
This is the main reason why we left Talk Tennis. I came over here to support you and Camelot. I have been diligent in my support, but enough is enough. When it gets to the place where you all turn your discerning eye on Federer and show some objectivity then I will listen. But as it is Federer is untouchable and Rafa is dirt even though Rafa has won big more recently than Federer. If you can't see that, then it's a failure on your part.
It's sickening. Read your posts and insert another player's name in there and see how tedious it becomes.
