If you mean W19, I seriously don't have it in my mind at all. It was never about this one specifically. It all became different and understandable when he crossed 30 playing the other two in their prime. The struggle started, and you would hear fromhim camp everyday something new about new ways to preserve energy, going more aggressive, dictating play, s/v, trying to balance his court position to depend more on his bh instead of running around his fh, etc.

I only saw the highlights. Djok played really well. Considering all
the injuries and stuffs. Age-defying stuff. Came back from a break
down in the first. Lost in two TBs. Djok always plays lucky, but looks
like his luck just ran out this time.
Mensik is a carbon copy of Pipe. Pipe-like behind-the-back and
direction changing abilities. Impressive. Looks like a pretty good
serve too. Hard to say about that.
If Pipe is Sinner,

Nadal changed his serve motion for USO 2010 when he was 24.
Was that because he was old or because he was trying to outdo everyone else?

They all had to constantly improve whether they were 20 or 30.
Djokovic lost ATP1000 final with the score 7:6 7:6, so what?
He lost 20 already, won 40. Mensik was red hot this week and he's a great prospect.

Alcaraz is puzzling the hell out of me right now. I never thought his
head would flake, as it seems to have done. I thought that at most he'd
just make poor decision from lack of thinking, but it looks a bit worse
than that right now.
Still, the level of talent he has will always set him apart, barring
injury.

Didn't Court1 give Djoke that Pipe Cleaner nickname?
i wonder what she
is up to...

I am not sure. He was down two sets to one in SF and finals of the FO last year. Also he was down two sets to one in two matches in Wimbledon last year and I remember her had to win a TB in the fourth against Tiafo to stay in the match. Alcaraz can'tplan points 2-3 shots in the row. He does well on surfaces that make planning points to be less effective and this happens on fast low bounce grass and slow clay. I think Sinner the doper will win FO and/or Wimbledon.

So far Federer is the king of Wimbledon and USO. This by itself is
enough. Novak can enjoy AO :)

Also, I will remind you in a year or two if we are still alive who
will be the most watched in the video archives.
I'm a hardcore tennis fan and I don't watch the big 3 at all. The 3
players I would watch from this century are Wawrinka, Alacarez and Fonseca.
