Apparently shanghai sped up significantly through the tournament. This has to be the fastest court on tour.

So is Federer now the owner of the Elder Wand again?

The most recent post I can find about this has Nadal winning it back at US Open from Rublev. So with Rog finally stopping his 16-match winning streak, I guess that means he now owns it?

Is it to late for me to grasp the idea of tennis?

This morning I was watching Serena Williams highlights and I got really emotional because I think I'm starting too late to be a good player. A lot of the players were kids when they started and today's my 21st birthday. I plan on buying a racket and some balls but I've never played before and I'm wondering if I should even start. Would it just be a waste? I really enjoy watching tennis but I'm thinking I won't be able to deliver.

Every time I watch Rafa do a presser, it looks like he's improving in the art of impersonating himself.

If the season ended today, which three players from the men's and women's tour have had the best season?

Edit: For clarity, the best three players relative to expectations for the year, past achievements etc.

Who would you rather play for your life?

You have to chose a member of the big 3 to play a grand slam final for you. If he wins you live and if he loses you die. The slam would be picked randomly and the opponent will be a random member of the remaining members of the big 3. For example, if you pick Roger he would play either Rafa or Novak at a randomly selected slam venue. All the members of the big 3 are at their peaks.
