Elena is will pick to win Rome and even garos to over take sabalenka in the rankings I just feel it finally coming and we'll deserved for Elena nobody can really play with her even though she lost to potapova that girl can't get her self out of wet paper bag and will fall in the early rounds of Rome and Garros

Rybakina is still.way behind Ayrna in the world rankings !!!!
Sabalenka has drastically fallen off since loosing the AO to Elena rybakina who in all honesty should have beaten her in the final at Indian wells as well but credit to Sabalenka but really the GS title being taken from her once again shows I believe Elena will over take her in the number 1 spot very soon and I think Elena has a very good chance at winning

I agree. Feels like a matter of when, not if, in this situation
Sabalenka would have got beaten by mirra andreeva she is back on the war path and looking good i think she will dominate Hailey in str8 sets 7 5 6 2 or 7 5 6 3
suegibson4848156d ago
Nonsense. You have absolutely no way of suggesting that ,Andreeva would beat Ayrna. What absurd speculation !!

How would you now rate Aryna Sabalenka's chances of winning the French Open on a scale of 1-10?
jas1955140d ago
Not her best surface I don't think but her skill and grit always 10 out of 10. 8 out of 10 to win tournament.
edwardbantonio150d ago
10 She can get it Talent Precision Brain 10/10

9, Only reason its not 10 is Rybakina.

Is men's tennis boring without Carlos Alcaraz?
richardmbonas60d ago
Yes it is. His style of all court play with volleys and drop shots makes his opponent leave the baseline and come in. Thus, a more varied and exciting match. Jodar vs Fritz was a pretty boring match though the score was close. Just blasting from the baseline didn't do much for my interest. But, add in Carlos and it's a whole different and more exciting match

I think there are some new tennis players rising & that’s exciting to see instead of Sinner & alcaraz winning all the titles. That’s to predictable. We need excitement
melbournexx100d ago
Definitely NOT. Tennis is much more than just 2 or 3 players. Besides Sinner, theres a complete"buffet" of very exciting young players: Fils, Shelton, Mensik, Draper etc. And this is why its far from boring; the variety of excellent young players.

How far do you think Naomi Osaka will go at the French Open?
She has never been past the third round before...
suegibson4848156d ago
Not far at all. 3rd round at best !!
george.patten160d ago
Second round? Not been inspired by her lately
peter.lynch160d ago
Sadly not very far I think... third round at best again, just not able to do it on clay

Where do you think Rafael Jodar will be ranked at the end of 2026?
george.patten161d ago
Top 25/30? That is if he plays as well on grass and hard as he has on clay
callumdaviestennis161d ago
I think the top 10 isn't really that strong. He has a great chance to break into it if he keeps this up
peter.lynch161d ago
Can see him in the Top 20, certainly not an easy feat!
