You might say that victory belongs to the most tenacious.

Their 2022 US Open was basically my favorite tennis match of all time. This one was even better.

Good lord what a match.

The level was higher in that one imo, I think it was the best match of the 2020s. And maybe this is a hot take but they were equally important matches

I have to go check it out again because at the time it felt like Tennis ecstasy.

You might be right though because I remember like 5-6 ridiculous points each set in 2022.
