He gets really pissy and insecure about fan support or lack thereof. He's an intelligent guy - he has to know that people almost always root for the underdog and he's pretty much never the underdog.
On top of that, people generally want to see more tennis and are going to get behind the guy that's down big. Those tickets arent exactly cheap!He gets really pissy and insecure about fan support or lack thereof.

They practice together a lot and I think Djokovic knows/knew exactly what it would take to beat him. Also Sinner didn’t really ever push him, and both were slipping a lot on the humid grass, terrible conditions.Yep, maybe that's his strategy with Sinner. I'm just thinking of the emotion he had throughout the match with Rublev and that's not there so far today.
yeah I guess one benefit to lack of drama today is that both guys should be in good physical shape for sunday.Great match point!
Alcaraz in good shape for Sunday- played well and won in straight sets.
First Wimbledon champ (men or women, singles) with multiple tattoos done in a moving vehicle since Henri Cochet, according to Elias.Worst tattoos ever for a Wimbledon champ?
One has to think that was the best scenario she will ever get for a Wimbledon final and she quite simply did not have "it" today.Heartbreaking watching Jabeur’s reaction.
I think Alcaraz has a great shot today.Are we set up for a Novak romp today or are we in for a classic? I really hope Alcaraz brings his best today.
I hope you're right, but I feel like I've heard this prediction for 15+ years and it's never happened. I say Novak in 3 (maybe 4). And again, I hope I am wrong.Here we go...I think this is a "changing of the guard" type of day.
I am certainly looking wrong at this point. Novak is a machine!I hope you're right, but I feel like I've heard this prediction for 15+ years and it's never happened. I say Novak in 3 (maybe 4). And again, I hope I am wrong.
In my head, like Maddux. Nothing flashy but just executes with precision and is consistent.Novak just way too good right now.
I didn’t catch it and had the same question.In my head, like Maddux. Nothing flashy but just executes with precision and is consistent.
What was Alcaraz yelling about?
How to Become an UmpireHow does one become the chair ump? Seems a cush job with Hawk Eye these days
Thanks1 I chuckled when they learned swears in different languages to keep it clean.
If Djoker wins, over. If Alcaraz wins, it is 1-1 and I'm not counting on Djoker, been here too many times.Whoever wins this tiebreaker wins the match, IMHO.
