OK... Good luck gambling with those new ATP players. I will only fool around with new players on the WTA side where things have been happening at slams.
Isn't it that 10 of the last 11 ATP slams have been won by the same 3 guys? ??? Doesn't mean someone else won't surprise us. But the chances are very slim.
Since I don't follow ATP, I always have hard time picking the 3rd crew member. :) :) :)
Go with Medvedvedvedev :lol: . Find a name close to that
Do you remember the Medvedev who Agassi won his Roland Garros crown against?? How about his shorts :lol:

And don't start with "it's not a slam"......
oh yes, I will. lol lol..
Slam matches are best-of-5. It's much harder to beat the top-3 in that setting.
As I kept saying, if ATP slams were Best-Of-3, there would be more random winners.

How many times Nadal, Federer, Djokovic, have been down 0-2 or 1-2 but ended up winning the matches?
I am sure Serena and other top players would have won some of the matches (not all) where they were down 0-2 or 1-2 in a BO5 serie. .... And the big 3 @ ATP would have lost more at slams in BO3.
Those are reasonable assumptions.

I have no idea that name was in tennis before.
Note that during the Agassi period, I was not much of a tennis fan. I tumbled across it once in a while the way I would tumble across beach Volleyball. :)
