Wait, I thought Stan has no chance?

CONGRATS STAN!

[Dominik]

[NasStan]

Wow

Was hoping for a Djokovic win but great final nonetheless.

[Dominik]

Novak is a class act. Doesn't get enough credit for how well he handles losses and they don't come around often these days.



Just incredibly happy for Stan. He played beautiful attacking tennis and has the best one-handed BH the game has seen.

[ZoranM]

Stan played great. Totally deserved it.

I lost a looot of money. Happened before, but this one hurts, badly. Be back for I told you sos in a couple of days.

God damn son of a b*tch. I spent enough sundays losing my nerves over him.

[CarlyRaeJepsen]

Djoker gonna end up just like Sampras. Lots of slams, no RG.

[Willrey]

I have been on fire with my bets had Suarez score and Barca win yesterday and had Wawrinka to win today I wish I had put more on now lol.

I think djokovic is a great player it just irks me how his fans always talk him to being the goat or things like Stan doesn't have a chance. Stan is the type of player when he is on, he can take the racquet out of anyone's hand and he's been pretty on this tournament . He had also played djokovic very tight in recent grandslams.

Anyways congrats to Stan what a display of power tennis.

[judgefudge]

Stanislaw the manislaw what a tournament, + with the goat racquet brand Yonex.

[Willrey]

The only answer to the big four in recent years has been pure power blasting them off the court not allowing them to dictate. Cilic, Del Potro and Stan all have the game to do that.

Fair play to Novak the way he took his defeat, I didn't want him to win at all but fair play.

[Willrey]

Best backhand in tennis.

Best backhand in tennis.

thing of beauty. question is: who has better backhand, stan or federer in his prime?

Stan wins on sheer power but Federer had more versatility. Feds backhand these days though has like zero power... same with his forehand lol

[ceizer1985]

What a performance. Blasted Novak off the court.

[Purostaff]

stan is the man...

representing 1H BH crew

[ohiostate124]

Djoker gonna end up just like Sampras. Lots of slams, no RG.

lol he'll get one assuming theres not some huge drop off or one of the young guns comes out of no where. Lets not compare Pete and Djoker as far as clay is concerned.

gotta love seeing another one hander winning slams

[hoganrulz]

stan the man finally excelling

[gswarrior510]

Stan has no chance, whatsoever.

Sorry, Stan.

Also kinda sorry for Stan.

Lol at every tennis thread in the world turning into goat discussion, with key words weak, era, and prime.

Keep downgrading what world no.1 is doing atm. The world has never seen the likes of 2011 and 2015. And keep pretending that anyone else except Andy would beat even this Nadal.

Federer will never win another slam. It's over. Deal with it.

yeah nobody has ever seen an 8th seed upset a #1 seed in their "never seen the likes before" year.

How about that BH DTL on match point?

Nice man, I still use rds 001 mid and have for the last 8 years, finally thinking of upgrading to a bigger headsize/slightly more powerful racquet soon though been demoing the Ezone Ai98 and VCore Tour F 97 and both feel amazing.

[sammy21]

It's nice to see a player NOT doing this after winning a slam:






So cringeworthy, especially after the title # 6, 7, 8 etc.

It's too bad it took Stan so long to find another gear like this, would've been nice to see him battling it out with rafa and djoker over the last 3-5 years.

lol RPM blast is probably the absolute worst string for amateur hackers. It's amazing; spin, control, everything .... for about 60 minutes tops. Then it turns to mashed potatoes and it's time for a new set (or else you'll wreck your arm ded srs don't do it). For reference, I normally squeeze about 8 hours out of a set of poly between string jobs.

Stanimal goes through 5-7 string jobs/match. I still have a set laying around that I will send you gratis, if you are serious.

Agreed. Federer and Nadal are two of the worst offenders and Djokovic tearing his shirt off at the AO was one of the worst.



Federer wearing that "15" jacket after beating Roddick in the Wimbledon 2009 final was the most cringeworthy moment I've experienced as a fan. 16–14 in the 5th and he goes through with Nike's request to wear that jacket while Roddick is standing there absolutely gutted. Sheer arrogance and poor judgement.

Stan seems to take into account how his opponent is feeling after a tough loss and keeps it subdued. I really respect that.

Which strings do you use? I rotate between bb alu rough, bb original, red code, spin x, and typhoon. My go to when I played seriously was either typhoon/spin x hybrid or alu rough full
