Much ado about nuttin. If there ever was.
Wawrinka made a remark after their match in Paris. Rune continues the conversation. A rhetorical question..."you've got nothing to say now?". He actually said it with a smile. A lack of real animosity. Just asking the question of Wawrinka...as if to say: "See you next time!" It's all in the game. Chippy? Hardly. I think it was called for. Ask the question...but back it up on the court. You see...Wawrinka had nothing more to add. He just won the match and it was a good one. Kudos to Rune. Ask the question. Don't take no for an answer. See you next time...jerk. Those are fighting words. I like Rune just a bit more becasue of it. You got attitude? Make it work for you. Don't be a shrinking violet. There are plenty of those. Amazing how players go so meekly into defeat against the Big Three or Big Four. Nobody challenging them. Nobody challenging Nadal on his ridiculous preserve antics. All the rest of it.
More concerning to me is the Rune serving motion. More often than not the match comes down to this...who served better? But I can tell you this...as long as the French coach/pimp is working with him there will be zero development. Isn't that amazing? This fellow is given all kinds of airtime and he is a zero in the end. What did Tsitsipas gain? Answer...nothing.
Mere window dressing. Just a lot of hooey and somebody recognizes that the actual play is so boring night in and night out that little side dramas must garner some little attention. If Rune learns to serve lights out night in and night out...that will be a story. A good one. Maybe some biomechanics guru will make a infomercial out of it claiming to have fixed it. I'll tell you one thing...I wish that I could take a shot at it. Because I know how to fix it.
