Yes, because for my example I counted 'for years to come' as two years, so until and including 2020. Which is 9 Grand Slams  

 

I definitely think it's very possible one of the next nine Grand Slams will be won by a man who hasn't won one before.

Anderson should be the closest one , maybe Theim in RG , Zverev who knows

Another Victory for Venus

According to the Dutch NOS, Stephens (or 'Stephems') has already won in two sets

First, The Netherlands turns down The Ukraine–European Union Association Agreement in a referendum, and now one of your big tv broadcasters don't recognise a Ukrainian winning a set in Tennis.

Nothing to be happy about. The grandma needs to go!

Anderson is Isner 2.0. He'll never win a GS, he'd have a better chance in the 90s with the faster surfaces.

Zverev will win one, sooner or later. Thiem has a shot at RG but once Rafa and/or Novak aren't there. Also, I think Tsitsipas has great predisposition to be excellent clay courter. 

Anderson to win a GS? Uhmmm, no

!

But before she goes, she will probably face her sister in the third round

Btw, I am doing very well in usopen bracket challenge. After first round I am second  Had just two or three misses in bottom half of the draw. WTA on the other hand... (and I  follow WTA more closely )

 

Wanted to add - watching Tsitsipas today, he gives me Borg vibes with his appearance  

[Wumo 3,002]

I guess Haase and Middelkoop very pretty lucky 

[Wanderer 1,726]

Wow, 8 match points saved and used their first!   But really, leading 6-2 just to lose next six points. Must hurt
