Wanderer

Well, he always had the talent but I believe he struggled with injuries when next gen was promoted. And he is born in 1996 so he's definitely NextGen player, luckily not as hyped as Zverev

Starting with Schiavone, Italian tennis keeps growing. Now on the men's side. Jannik Sinner is such a talent! There are also Zeppieri and Musetti as notable young talents but overall bunch of upcoming young players.

This is why Slams have that "thing"

I completely forgot that Ferrer had retired

Matteo

Monfils double faulting Matteo's road to SF

Wow this was crucial challenge for Matteo

Dimitrov had 0-7 H2H with Federer, Schwartzman is 0-7 with Nadal. If you know what I mean

He has a good fighting spirit

Verkerk? Yup, that was surprise, I was a kid, cheering for Agassi and was a bit angry how some unknown guy was there but not my hero

And speaking of that RG 2004 - four Argentinians in the quarterfinals, three in semis and the winner was the lowest ranked of them all

Feli Lopez did have some injuries, but still managed to play all the slams Always in the main draw!

I am among those who blame Radek for Vaidisova's career. She might have returned sooner than later and MIGHT.... well

IF, IF Schwartzman wins, this would be first slam after... Roland Garros 2004 where none of Federer/Djokovic/Nadal names won't be heard in the semifinals. The year I started high school and now I am starting my thirties

C'mon Matteo If only Schwartzman could do wonders later
