@stats_feed Rafael Nadal is naturally right-handed for everyday tasks like writing and playing golf, but he plays tennis left-handed

Del Potro broke Federer’s 40-match US Open streak Roger Federer entered the 2009 US Open final having won 40 straight matches at the tournament and five consecutive titles. Then a 20-year-old Juan Martín del Potro arrived. He beat Nadal in the semifinal, then came from two sets to one down to beat Federer in five. One tournament. Two giants. One legendary breakthrough.

Dominic Thiem finished his career with at least 5 wins against EACH member of the Big 3: Federer: 5–2 Nadal: 6–10 Djokovic: 5–7 Only Andy Murray also managed 5+ wins against all three. That tells you how dangerous peak Thiem really was. Was Thiem the best player of his generation outside the Big 4? 👇

No Jannik Sinner (Right Knee injury), no Carlos Alcaraz (wrist injury) at Cincinnati. Both might not play in US Open too. This might be the best chance for Novak Djokovic to win his 25th Grand Slam.

@JustTennis123 if Jannik and Carlos doesn't play this US Open then it will be the last best chance to win 25th grand slam for Novak. I hope he makes it this time😇

Who puts the MOST spin on the forehand on clay? 🎾🌀 Among the biggest topspin hitters: 🥇 Rafael Nadal — ~3,200 RPM average His forehand could climb toward 4,000 RPM at times. 🥈 Casper Ruud — ~3,200+ RPM territory Built around heavy topspin and clay-court shape. 🥉 Carlos Alcaraz — ~3,000+ RPM But with more raw pace mixed in. For context, a typical ATP forehand is much lower than Rafa’s peak numbers. The scary part about Nadal wasn’t just the spin. It was spin + height + left-handed angle + clay. That combination turned one forehand into a completely different problem.

Alcaraz vs Zverev at Indian Wells 2024 suddenly stopped. Not because of rain. Not because of injury. Because thousands of bees invaded the court and swarmed around the spider camera. A beekeeper was called in and reportedly vacuumed them away before play could resume nearly two hours later. The chair umpire’s announcement: “Play suspended due to bee invasion.” 🐝😂

Kalshi’s US Open market has Sinner at 50% — while Alcaraz sits at just 13%. 👀🎾 Zverev is actually second at 17%. Market overreacting… or is Sinner really this far ahead of the field?

Roger Federer won 20 Grand Slams. But there was one person he wished could have seen it all. Peter Carter. Carter was Federer’s childhood coach — the man who helped shape that wild, emotional kid from Basel into the player the world would eventually fall in love with. In 2002, Carter tragically died in a car accident while on his honeymoon. Federer was only 20. Years later, whenever Roger spoke about him, you could still see how much it hurt. Carter never got to see Federer win a Grand Slam. Never saw him lift Wimbledon. Never saw him become World No.1. Never saw him become Roger Federer. But a part of Peter Carter was there in every one of those moments. Some coaches teach you tennis. Some change your life. ❤️

In 2017, a 7-year-old boy named Izyan “Zizou” Ahmad asked Roger Federer at a US Open press conference: Could you keep playing long enough so I can face you when I turn pro? Federer smiled and basically promised to try. Nine years later, that same kid made his ATP qualifying debut at Indian Wells at age 15. Sometimes tennis stories take years to complete.

Rafael Nadal was asked to name his 10 greatest athletes of all time… and this list is going to start arguments. 👀 Jordan. Ali. Bolt. Phelps. Schumacher. Pelé. Maradona. Woods. Nicklaus. Djokovic. But no Roger Federer. Considering everything Rafa and Roger shared for nearly two decades, that omission is hard not to notice. Who would you REMOVE from Rafa’s list to make room for Federer? 👇

He’s 16 now and seriously pursuing professional tennis. In March 2026, Zizou received a qualifying wild card for Indian Wells, making his ATP Tour qualifying debut. He has been training at the John McEnroe Tennis Academy in New York and has developed into a highly rated junior player.
