When Roger played even more agressive than usual and had "it" that day, noone had a chance on a fast surface. because he took away so much time for his opponent, when he took balls that early. the pressure was insane.

The true genius of Roger? Variety of shot and movement. Watching men's tennis these days really drives that home for me. I knew it 20 years ago, but watching some these men's US Open matches is like watching a game of old school computer pong. I was watching the Medvedev\Sinner match and screaming, "Move your damned feet!" at BOTH guys. Ugh. So many flat footed shots in that match...
