2026 Wimbledon Thread

Sinner's on a different level but, to be fair, Zverev played very well today IMO. He was only broken twice in 4 sets and was at like 75% on his first serve. I mean, I don't know if Zverev can play better than he did today--they were just both on the A game and Sinner's A game is better than everyone not named Alcaraz.

I'm beginning to think we aren't going to see Alcaraz again this year. I just hope when he does come back he is what he was, but I'm even doubting that right now.

Yeah, I'm getting very concerned about his health

This was the first time Andy Roddick did the color commentary at Wimbledon and I thought he did a great job. Very relatable guy and goes into great detail. First time I've seen him doing it. Describing the hum of the crowd as the players walk onto Centre Court and how it's completely different to the roar heard at other championships was interesting. Andrea Petokovic is another I've seen recently and does a nice job.

Andy Roddick served tennis a fresh brand of analysis. ESPN and Wimbledon are next

Roddick's insightful, high-tempo analysis on his podcast, “Served”, has garnered new fans. Now comes traditional broadcasting.

I agree on both of those--I had seen Roddick on The Tennis Channel before and wasn't sure about him heading into this but he did great
Honestly, I think tennis has by far the best commentators. Might be an unpopular take but both McEnroes, Evert (my personal favorite), Mary Jo, Blake, Shriver, even Woz is good now (wasn't a fan at first)...Sloane Stephens also did a nice job at the French. Fowler and McKendry are also great.
