...........after Trump gets impeached.

Ok, seriously I think this kid would probably do even better than Sasha in his career.

Here is a nice article on the new kid in the block by Tignor.

If you want to sign up on the fan club for Shapo, chime in this thread!

I join Shapo Bandwagon officially (once Roger retires).

Shapo opens the business at Ashe tomorrow. If Shapo goes on to win this year's USO, he would have played all his matches in Ashe Stadium except for the first round match. He has indeed become a star.

Shapo will be ranked 51 when the ranking list is released after USO. This would mean that he would get direct entry into future slams. But, it is still not high enough to fetch direct entry into Masters events.

Shapo is 3rd in the race to Milan behind Sasha and Khachanov.

He will get to play in the next gen WTF event and that would be interesting tourney this year with several interesting figures.

I don't like Shapovalov.

When Djokovic retires, I'll root for Félix Auger-Aliassime.

Count me in too (in fact I was already in the bandwagon, sitting on the best place and eating pop corn. A pregnant woman just got in, expected me to give her my place, but I just showed my middle finger).

I started to root for the kid once I heard about the Davis Cup incident (and that part is serious).

I'm liking the kid too, good composure during the carreno busta match. And his game is ecxciting. He's a lefty so that's a plus in my book.

This chap has a swagger in him and is exciting to watch. Sasha wins, but not really particularly exciting to watch.

Bad news for @Fiero425, looks like Shapo likes girls, I just read his comment next to Fanny pic :p But who knows, maybe he likes boys too ;):D

OMG, now I have a clue! I thought you were talking about Sharapova, not the hottie from Canada Shapo! Why would I be disappointed? More power to him! I can still appreciate his play and looks on the court! :rolleyes: :yesyes: :ptennis:

Shapo is not yet president, but he won the Most Improved Player of the year award for 2017. :clap:

I was thinking Shapo was the player to have had a huge improvement in ranking this year. But, I am wrong. Mathew Ebden had even larger improvement in his ranking this year though his current ranking is about 30 spots below that of Shapo.

So, What is Shapo up to? Have not heard about him in the recent past?

Is he practicing how to sit on a throne yet?
