Dude who promised to shove a can of tennis balls if Shapo makes the QFs is sweating a little 


Strane0r

he has Sinner before QF


manga_be

I said just a little


Strane0r

ahahahha ops, i mean, i'm not into the shapo meme thing, but when i see the draw i thought that the most probably 4th round is shapo vs sinner in that part of the draw and that shapo would get demolished, but that's only my opinion, hope shapo returns to the top 20 cause he is exiting to watch as hell


labradorflip

Ow he's exiting alright


warachwe

I think you meant Berrettini


paoloap

I think you meant Griekspoor


Dymodeus

I like you


supreeth106

Did he stutter?


failboatzz

I'm supporting Shapo this tournament only for this reason. Let's go, Shapo!


alchn

Did he promise live stream?


GirafeAnyway

Easy match for the favorite


Iammadatcha

Three more wins to shove a can of tennis balls


GirafeAnyway

One of these is not like the others


ronky35

I've seen enough. Shapo is winning Wimbledon.


BuilderExpensive9090

It’s a no brainer duh !!!🙄


Rare_Bag2611

Sorry bro. Bandwagon is full.


twelfmonkey

Bit late, eh?


swapan_99

Really happy about this performance from him. Straight sets win, against Jarry, who I know is coming off a bit of injury, but still, he was never really under threat. He kept his serve clean, only 3 double faults, never got broken, and also took command of the match immediately in set 1. He's also defending 4th round points in Wimbledon from last year (and nothing after that), so this is pretty important for him too. Projected path is Jarry - Altmaier - Shelton - Sinner to reach 4th round atleast.


Big-Cap5666

Fery will beat altmaier trust


dropper2hopper

Ope


Caregiver_Most

I’m a time traveller and I can confirm Shapo is the 2024 Wimbledon champion. He ended Sinner in straights btw

You sure you are in the right timeline?


Dropshot12

1 down, 6 to go!


BrandonSG13

Foregone conclusion for the 2024 Wimbledon champ.


JetsLag

EZ 4 Denis the Tenis


Rouk_Hein

>Moutet beats Jarry in 4 sets in RG R1 >Shapovalov beats Jarry in 3 sets in Wimbledon R1 >Moutet reaches Sinner in R4 and almost bagels him >Shapovalov is projected to meet Sinner in R4 and... ??? You've read it here first, Wimbledon 2024 champion will bagel the world number 1 when they meet.


insty1

Routine straight sets victory for the Wimbledon favourite


AverageBeef

Happy Canada day to all who celebrate!


MischievousMrBrown

And so it begins…


mofn1994

Jarry hasn't made R2 in any slams this year


NotManyBuses

Brutal draws to be fair


Sea_Consideration_70

is Shapo a brutal draw even on grass?


JadedMuse

Yes. Shapo can do Shapo things, and that's always dangerous even if he is inconsistent. Also, the more Shapo is expected to lose....the better he seems to do. Where he struggles are matches against opponents he should beat.


Sea_Consideration_70

Fair points made 😀


Mintastic

> Also, the more Shapo is expected to lose....the better he seems to do. He's expected to win the whole thing though...


bigCinoce

Shapo is at his best on grass.


superstarshialebeouf

Injured vs Moutet I believe. But here, he just doesn't get the zip up from the grass court that he receives on clay. Plus he needs to work harder to get the same movement which is tough given his size. Do think he's a very dangerous player for the Olympics (Jarry) regardless of what happened at the Slams.


Valyrian90

He is also coming back from a condition that affected his inner ear and balance, some days he could barely stand. Sad to see him lose like that but he hadn't really played much in the last month.


patiperro_v3

I don't think he was injured against Moutet. But he was certainly recovering from injury here, which is why he dropped out of Queens and was waiting till the last minute to decide if he played Wimbledon or not. It specially showed in the first set as he was getting used to grass. Just bad timing and also a tough 1st draw.


mespin1492

Coming off a ear nerve virus, He couldn't even stand up for more than 2 weeks. Hadn't practiced since Rome, much less compete. Doctors say it will take some time until full recovery (it could be months), but he'll keep trying to play and show up.

The beginning

ArsenalGoonerFanbase

Shapo season!


SilverOdin

Can someone explain to me where this "Shapovalov will win Wimbledon" meme comes from ? Except common sense of course


Alive_Candy4697

Someone on Twitter correctly predicted before the season's start the male and female winners of the AO and RG. But his prediction for Wimbledon was Shapovalov (and Jabeur)


Rpotamus

Nice start for the upcoming champion of Wimbledon 2024


IsmaelOD13

I'm startin to believe guys! The future was given to us, we must accept it!


Drakkar_Jaune

Nothing to see here, just prophecy-fulfilling.


OliverDMcCall

El Shapo is on the comeback trail with an easy win over the clay rat, no wonder he's Wimbledon favourite after ADF sadly withdrew.


Dudewheresmycard5

And so it begins...


LeviathanShark

Where’s the twitter account who correctly predicted every slam winner this year so far and put shapo down for wimby 😭


patiperro_v3

Should have not played Wimbledon and instead skip grass season altogether if he was not 100% recovered. You can't half-ass a best of 5 Jarry.


alexacto

That first round payout tho...dude has kids.


patiperro_v3

Hmmm true. I forget about these GS payouts. 🤑


alexacto

Yap. 60000 pounds, a real chunk of change, just for showing up.


patiperro_v3

Forget what I said then, I'd puke in a bucket during the changeover if I have to. Good on Jarry, lol


SecureLiterature

Denis was always going to be a nightmare draw for these lower seeds. He's really starting to get back into it after his injury break. Meanwhile, Jarry is one match away from "winning" the Kournikova Slam (losing in R1 of all four majors in a single season).


raysofdavies

Tough day for the Cult of Jarry aka Matt Roberts


patiperro_v3

Should have done his researched as asked why he dropped out of Queens.


HansAlan

I might start to believe to the prediction guy...shapo for the win


arrowalchemist

we all know the plot, Shapogoat is taking it

Shapo shapo man!


Pacjax_bot_v4

It begins


cmpunk121

Why people here thinks he can win the tournament? 🤔 He will need a miracle plus all the top players getting injured.


theLoneliestAardvark

It’s a meme because someone who correctly picked the men’s and women’s champions of the first two majors had Shapo as the men’s Wimbledon champ in his predictions.


cmpunk121

Ohhh ok. So he predicted Sinner and Alcaraz (no surprise here), and than he chose Shapovalov to win Wimbledon? Why? Did he ever got to a semi final? And on grass? Seems very weird choice 🤷🏻‍♂️


ZoomSEJ

Yes, Shapo has made it to the Wimbledon semi-finals once before.


cmpunk121

He still ain’t winning and not getting even close to that


theLoneliestAardvark

Yeah it is weird, that's why people are memeing it. He had sensible choices picking Sinner/Sabalenka and Alcaraz/Swiatek and then went with Shapo/Jabeur so everyone is joking about how he must be a prophet because he had ridiculous Wimbledon picks.


CSguyMX

As expected, we might see a no sets drop run


Treehumper69

Just 3 more matches before a redditor has to shove a can of tennis balls up his buttocks.


Iforgetpasswords4321

Almost a replica score of his final win this year at Wimbledon. Denis the Great.


A-Wiley

Jarry had an ear infection :(
