There is something to say for the players that have been around for a long time
.the Joker won eviler today against a rookie and actually tonight, same thing the polished veteran DOES know how to win. Rookies are flashy, BUT, need the time to really know the game of whatever sport.

of every tournament they play or win every final they are in. Not even Novaxx, who just lost a slam final 2 months ago. He also retired a bunch of times when he was losing matches at slams in his younger days. Especially against Roger and Rafa.
Meddy is a great hard court players and has a great record at the USO. And the last time he played in the final here, he beat Novaxx.
