    Swiatek is just too strong, I think she'll end up breaking all the records if she takes this as serious as Serena, Nadal, Federer or Djokovic.

    Sure, I'll be on then at 4pm eastern standard time and will play some games

    that was really fun. i can't play tomorrow unfortunately. but if you're available Saturday we can play at the same time.

    top spin2k25 has an Instagram page and I follow it. one of the things that people keep asking for is more players--they want a bigger roster. I don't know if it's going to happen, but I do know it's something a lot of people have been requesting.

    also, a few people have said that serena and maria are too powerful in the game. i haven't played it enough yet to be able to give an opinion on this, but i've noticed on instagram that several people have said that serena and maria are too powerful. in other words, it's like they aren't fair to play against. :jordan:

    You people can play tennis online but irl, no one on this forum could beat me in a game of a tennis. I can do a decent return curve on the ball. You have to be conditioned to play a full game. But I’m also the #1 ranked PG in the county, just in my genetics I guess.

    its ok, we'll plan another day/time we can play. maybe they'll fix Sharapova and Williams on the next update and hopefully add some additional players. :emoji_fingers_crossed::emoji_fingers_crossed:


    Paolini made it interesting for the first few games but after that it was all downhill. I watched the entire match and once the momentum swung Paolini had no answer. and yes, Iga will very likely end up with double digit major victories. she's already halfway there and she's only 23.

    Alcaraz going for his first french open victory tomorrow...

    @aleeex1923 I’m very surprised Djokovic is playing at Wimbledon. He had surgery on his knee on June 5th. It hasn’t even been a month. And he’s no spring chicken anymore lol

    @aleeex1923 well Novak loses the final in straight sets, but he's got nothing to be ashamed of. i didn't even think he'd make it to the final of Wimbledon because of his recent knee surgery but he somehow did it.

    i watched the entire match and alcaraz was just too good today. plus novak was missing volleys that he would normally make. alcaraz was up 5-4 in the third set and he had 3 championship points and somehow lost the game. i was stunned by that. but the good thing is he didn't panic/get rattled after blowing that game. instead, he kept his composure and was able to close it out in the tiebreak

    yeah, pretty boring game tbh, was hyped when Djokovic saved those match points and really thought he can turn it around. I don't like this generation of tennis players, probably once Djokovic and Nadal retires, I'm not going to watch a single game

    yeah, saw the highlights...I believe the olympics was too much for both of them phisically and mentally

    i was hoping one of the Americans in the men's or women's final would win, but i'm not surprised one bit that both of them lost. i expected them too

    sabalenka's power was just too much. plus, she has more experience than pegula when it comes to championship matches. this was pegula's first finals appearance whereas sabalenka has been to multiple.

    sinner was on a roll this entire tournament. he only lost like 2 sets in his 7 matches. pretty impressive especially with that doping controversy hanging over his head

    yeah, only watched the finals, I don't like Sinner so I was hoping he'll lose but he was too strong. I enjoy Sabalenka's game, everytime I watch her she is just too powerful. Was shocked to see Swiatek lose down the road.
