Great quiz, Thanks! 🙂
11. Not bad 🙂
Podium ?
I barely got 8 ! that was a hard one, but very funny !! Thank you Murli and Jonathan 🙂
Yeah, it’s very well put together!
Thanks Murli <3 – you know the fun
The first ten was tough, I got just 4 (Paganini, GW and two brands), the second was much easier I missed the age one, I still can’t figure how was I supposed to get it from the context, I presume the girl is Beli Bencic
Yeah I am not sure about that one either. 10 years since they first met at this years Hopman Cup?
I got 12.
Good effort, I think it’s tricky. I figured most of them out but I was staring at them for over an hour when putting it together before Murli sent me the answers.
Hi Murli, long time no see! Are you kidding? Yes, you are. Always. Was so difficult but I got more than half, well barely 😆
Thanks for the fun!
WTF is correct. I didn’t do so well. My excuse is I don’t get news from Europe very often unless it’s about Brexit. 🙂
Murli, you are a crafty rotten sod. Did you see Fed in Dubai this year?
Which questions are easier for Europeans? 😆
All of them except hockey.
I got 11, most of them about tennis jajaja.
You missguided me at the missile thing, I thought it was González obviously. His nickname was Bombardero (bombardier).
Yeah that one is tricky, you need to know the name of the missile to really have a chance, rather than working out the name of it from the player first.
And I never knew he had that nickname, just thought he was Gonzo.
An extra very short and (easy) quizz : Do you know whom legs are these ?

NB : which tournament was it (don’t know) ?
Easy, how many bright blue courts paired with bright sunshine are there? 😀
Those shots against him were extra satisfying , weren’t they!
100 Brilliant Winners vs Nadal by Raz Ols

Interesting article but missing conclusion 😄
https://indianexpress.com/article/sports/tennis/how-do-federers-101-title-wins-measure-up-against-connors-109-5669692/
Different era but how can they count a tournament with two people in the draw? Geez.
Haha a bye to the final 😆
For your info : A.Zverev just lost to Munar in Marrakech (round of 16). R.Federer is now just 450 points behind him (see ATP live ranking)…
https://live-tennis.eu/en/official-atp-ranking
Zverev will be falling in the rankings at the rate he is going these days.
Has semi-final to defend in Mickey Carlo too.
And a lot more during clay season. Fed’s are all bonus! I think Sascha decided to play Marrakech thinking he wants extra points that he miss during 1Q but w that loss, he must have been regretting it, big time. Last 3 WTF-its (non big 4s) have been all cursed next season.
