I'm relieved that you're beginning to not hate me. It's worth remembering that the level was only "meh" from one side of the court. The other player can't control that. What final would you have preferred?
Probably between two players that don't exist. One side was meh, the other was OK+.

I laugh thinking of the hypocrisy, but even more so of the "haters" who got nervous when Djokovic broke back facilitating a TB in the 3rd set! :face-with-hand-over-mouth:
Let's be honest here. Djokovic didn't break back. Alcaraz played a ridiculously poor game and threw Djokovic a bone there.

Hey Fronty
I think Carlos was a tight as a drum when serving for the match, I will give him as pass there, as nerves set in, expected, but what I liked he reset got his composure back and served a love service game to take it to a TB when he won, to me that is a sign of a champion player, he just beat Novak in all departments in that final, Don Fabio agreed completely he also said to me no player would have defeated Carlos in the way he played the final, thank goodness Don has always been a 'measured Novak Fan' also I will add Rob as a 'measured fan' of Novak

That wasn't terrible! At least he gave her a spin. And didn't do the dreaded "get her head caught on your arm." LOL. But it is funny that footwork and coordination on the tennis court do not necessarily translate to footwork and coordination on the dance floor.
even the great Michael Jordan really could dance at all.. Man.. can you imagine if it was Gael aka LeMonf Monifils dancing with her. It aint fair that God gave all that rhythm to one person. Some people are just naturally gifted at it. Have you ever seen the actor Tom Hiddleston dance.. that brother can move like a teenager that grew up listening to R&B
