I am sure there is an awful lot more drug use around than any sport cares to own up to. Sometimes I just look at athletes and can't believe their bodies are capable of reaching the heights they do. I mean Djokovic seemed to make a Trumpian recovery on Wednesday.
I would have preferred a Shwartzman v. Adonis final myself - something new and fresh, a bit like the US final, but it wasn't to be.
I think this dates back about 4 years ago when Andy Murray said he thought it possible that some top players might be using performance assisting drugs.
Djokovic said something along the lines of if it isn't proved, it isn't happening.
Nadal said this : “We have to be available for an hour for drug testing every day. 365 days a year."
An unpopular view on here but I like Novak, he played incredible tennis tonight, power, touch, athleticism and elegance. I’m delighted he won. Hope he beats the drugs cheat in the final.
Well done, Nadal. The other lad had nothing.
This is crazy! Much as I don't much care for Djokovic he doesn't deserve to have lost the first set 6 - 0!
Holy shit...
Good article on the top 3.

Goodness me, that was some performance.
Very much enjoying the Ladies final. A few excellent rallies, a few errors, but so far, the right one is winning...

Well, Nadal ain’t no Adonis. But he‘ll have to do.
What a shame.
Come on Adonis!
