Jeremy, Thanks for your reminder to me re Soderling match: don't know how I missed it. But it was an excellent piece and summed the match up so well, particularly the way Nadal was bewildered (and bedevilled) for so much of that match. He fought to the end, but he was absolutely outplayed. With what followed in other matches, it seemed like an aberration and something that could never be repeated (by Soderling). My feeling is that if he had not been hit with the most severe form of mono, Soderling may well have grown further, both in technique and mentally, to challenge Nadal again. Like I said before, it's so sad.

I wish you wrote more pieces Jeremy (although I appreciate why you do not): quality over quantity etc. But some of the articles by other writers are so bad - usually containing an unacceptable number of very basic mistakes. I wonder, do the editors never check the content?

Hey. Really love your articles. The writing is really good and offers some really penetrating analysis.

I just wanted to know your thoughts on how Djokovic has completely gotten the better of Nadal over the past two years. What has changed? The Serb beat him 7 straight times in 2011. I have found no real analysis of how that happened. Okay, nadal's topspin doesn't bother the guy. But is Rafa only about the topspin? So If Roger had a two hander, would Nadal not have bothered him as much?

Jeremy, I love your recent articles on trying to shift focus from the Big 4 to other players on the tour. Especially on the potential talent rising up in the ranks. Based on comments I've seen here, people seem to be expecting greatness or bust. But I wouldn't mind seeing the young guns just get into the top 10. Whether they can proceed to win one or more slams comes later. But in the last decade, the top 10 entries in the last few years have been players predominantly in their mid to late 20's. Tsonga at age 24, Berdych at age 24-25. Ferrer, Tipseravic, Juan Monaco much later in their careers. The average age of the current top 10 is quite high.

I thought I would make a suggestion on an article that you can write on why we see people "blooming" later these days. Did the Beckers and Samprases win only because serve and volley was sufficient in their era and teenagers could do it ? Does the all court game favor experience over raw talent ? Does the physciality needed start showing up only with muscle development in the mid 20's ? The question was raised by Rafa too in his interviez post-Dimitrov's match. And why he calls such players top 10 potential but refuses to say whether he thinks they'll win GS. Last comment in the following link.

I was thinking this might be a good article for discussion. Since you have followed tennis for quite some time now, I felt you'd be the right man for the job. Of course I know you have your own interests and so does Bleacher Report, so it's only a suggestion. :)

Hello sir. Been a long time since I have dropped in. It is always a pleasure to read your work. I really hope that you get much more exposure, you deserve it.

No problem and thanks; its also nice to see someone on here who views sport for what it ultimately is: entertainment. Ultimately, there is nobody better to watch in tennis than Federer win or lose.

Hi Jeremy, once again another terrific article! Agree with Krrish, best writer on BR by far.....fair, unbiased and informed :) Looking forward to your next article :)

You're one of the best writers on the Tennis Bleacher Report, probably the best.

thank you very much for your Fan Add Jeremy! It is truly an HONOR for me!

Jeremy, a SUPERB article & analysis on Grading Rafa's Comeback. You're the BEST writer on the Tennis Bleacher Report!!
