Wimbledon is his worst major. He's never made it past the 3rd round.

I think he can't handle the quicker reflexes needed for the lower bounces.

The USO is his best major, and he's done reasonably well at the FO.

For some reason he's never done well at the AO. Well he has 2 4th round appearances, but also 4 first round losses.

There's always next year, for the AO, though.

I think he was better at the USO earlier in his career.

He lost to Mischa Zverev last year, and didn't even play that well.

How did Isner and Donald Young lose to R Klasen and Michael Venus in doubles in Miami? Isner and Sock won Indian Wells doubles.

His serve though is untouchable right now and he wont have to worry about hitting too many groundies if that is the case. I agree though that the low balls give him trouble. Wimby has slowed down the last couple years too and the new grass has a higher bounce. He wins Newport most years so it is not the grass per se. He just did not play well there for some reason. I will have to watch more carefully this year.

Wimbledon is a totally different animal. It’s best of five and you have to be mentally focused for all seven rounds to win and you can get knocked out by just about anyone who can get in your head and not allow you to execute your game. Look at what happened to Nadal.
