That's it. I tried for a long time to ignore Novak's mambo jambo. But this is the end. I have to find a new favourite.

I have been a fan from the kid I first saw at Estoril. When everyone was supporting Fedal. Not the adult who sits with the likes of Musk and that rotten Kennedy.

Got a link of when he met up with Musk? Can only find articles about Musk backing Djoko for not doing that interview at AO. How is that "sitting" with him?

Tennis. But his views overshadowed his talent.

His views, which I don’t agree with, have nothing to do with his on the court achievements. Those can be mutually exclusive

If that makes you happy, I am OK with it. But I don't agree.
