But it just takes him to that extra plateau.
Yeah, I agree.
I'm really happy for him to be able to get that win and take the monkey off the back as well as being the best player not to win a Grand Slam and all that sort of thing, considering the players that he's had to contend with over the years.
Okay, the women.
This was amazing.
We had a first-time winner.
in a major championship, defeat a qualifier.
And I mean, Trulinska was creating history everywhere.
She looks pretty much through the two weeks.
Um, but we still had a winner that's been knocking on the door for a while.
Yeah.
And Trulinska, incredible story.
When it gets back to what you just said before about like, almost like the length of the, of the slam.
I mean, she's been playing in Paris for three weeks, played, played nine matches, um,
and the conditions were just dramatically different from the beginning.
There was the first week of the main draw was just like the biggest heat wave in Paris, in the event history, I think.
And so you think of all she's had to go through, beat some, you know, big sculpts in, uh, Zhang Jingweng, uh, Sakari, Elise Mertens, um, Schneider, like big solid wins.
So it was just an incredible story, but, um, I think it was also, as you mentioned on Mira Andreeva, it was,
probably not a big shock she won in the end and you know she's still only 19 and we've always talked about her being you know a potential Grand Slam winner and I think it's the first of many more for her
Yeah, I agree.
