I mean, given how crazy the past 10 days have been at the All-England Club -- particularly on the women's side -- I must say we're pretty lucky to have these semifinals. Obviously I would love to see Novak Djokovic snuff out that homophobe Margaret Court's specious 24 majors co-record. But even if he does get past Sinner -- both of them are potentially not well -- the good news is I can live with his losing to Carlos again, who truly is a generational talent ... and adorable!
Here it's pretty much a win-win-win-win situation: Aryna should take home the trophy on Saturday, which would prevent her from potentially ending the year as a Slamless No. 1. I've always liked Belinda in a Madison Keys kind of way -- meaning that I've basically given up on her but would still be thrilled if she finally did it. (She's still only 28 because she was so young when she burst on the scene.) Anisimova is a brilliant player whose mind has always been her biggest weakness, so more power to her if she can put it all together. And Iga's been lost in the woods for over a year, so if she somehow won Wimbledon -- on her worst surface -- how could I complain?
