So who is coming up to replace them? Those three dominated from when they were young. There is no new blood as dominating as they were. The women have some big names who could become all time greats. Swietek, Sabalenka perhaps.

They combined won 66 Grand Slams. Just insane.

McGauff out. I can't stand her arrogant ass.
I want Navarro to win it all.

Carlitos lost in straight sets to some Dutch guy. Good. Bit late to the party but why was that good?

They look like Starfleet officers. That's my sports-related two cents.
