So I’m good with it. He just ate Rublev for dinner and didn’t break a sweat.

He might win here but Novak is looking bionic. He might beat Fed if the meet in nyc. He probably doesn’t beat Rafa or Novak.

IMHO.

That said, the irony would be evident. But at least the evidence would be on TV over the course of the tournament.
