6. Yeah, Fils is going to be top 5 in no time.

He has a killer forehand but his consistency can be a problem. He's also funny! -- After his match the other day, Prakash Amritraj was interviewing him post-match d on the Tennis Channel and he said that he was complaining after losing the second set and his fitness coach in his box told him "shut the fuck up!" -- and then he repeated it! https://www.reddit.com/r/tennis/comments/1suvx7k/arthur_fils_fitness_coach_told_him_to_shut_the_f/

IMO I'm not very impressed with Fonseca despite the hype machine behind him. I'm sure he'll make it to the top 10, but do I see him winning any slams? Not really.

Yippie, and sorry for his hurting......but that means my man Sinner could be a smooth sailing winner eh??? a kennedy Apr 24 #2

Looks that way to me as well. Prairie_Seagull Apr 24 #3

It's interesting that Sinner himself was far more gracious about Carlos' injury than some of his fans.... tishaLA Apr 26 #7

I really appreciate Sinner and his baseline play. Prairie_Seagull Apr 26 #8
