CAMELOT FANTASIES

I am alive and getting better with each passing day.


Camelot family is strong and united forever.

It is the will of the gods.

You seem to be in good spirits despite the circumstances. Glad to hear.

I am just glad to be alive. that was one hell of a fall and it could have been so much worse.

You're welcome, Clay. I'm glad you're o.k. You will feel like that. It must have been a horrific experience & feeling for you. Unfortunately, all you can do is ensure you don't strain yourself, attend your therapy sessions & take painkillers as well as divert your attention to something else. If you don't think about it as much you won't feel it as much. Our minds are very powerful instruments. I hope you're better soon.

thanks lady Ann. that is a great advice.

Thiem takes out Fed in Stuttgart and now enjoys a 2-1 H2H.  Dominic has future slam winner written all over him and I love his single handed backhand.  His game translates pretty well to Grass... I thought the pace might trouble him on the backhand wing a little as he takes big cuts on the ball... but so good, so far.  Liking Dominic and Zverev the most out of the nextgen group... but also got a soft spot for the pantomime villain of the piece... Nick Kyrgios.

Thiem seems to have it all:


1. great build for tennis.
2. rocket serve
3. dominating forehand
4. fantastic composure and a sound tennis mind

5. ability to go forward with confidence



the lanky German Zverev might be too tall for optimal movement. he can still do some huge damage on quicker/faster courts.

Hello!

Thiem and Zverev are going places - both will probably have tenures at #1.  Thiem will get there first and probably dominate Zverev initially... before the Russo-German comes of age and lights things up.  These two are the shining beacons of the next generation.  Kyrgios may gatecrash the party, certainly has the tools but I doubt he has the mentality to match these two toe to toe in the longer term.

great post general.


could not agree more.

as for the mercurial greek, he has the tools and the physical attributes but not the mental discipline and composure of Thiem and Zerev.


they will all have to wait however to get their shots at being #1 in the sport.

Djokovic can easily dominate for another 2 years. Djokovic is a huge threat for the slams until 2018 is out of the way.

Thiem should be coming into his own by then anyway. he is just 22 if I am not mistaken.

Hello!

hello Ann.

what an awesome super sig you have.


it is a treat for folks every time they look at it.
