On this week's Monday Match Analysis, we'll revisit the Hulk series, where Gill creates the greatest tennis player of all-time by assigning the major attributes of a player to current professionals. Two year's ago, we built a player with some of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic's mental traits, Roger Federer's footwork, Nick Kyrgios's serve, a forehand made up of Dominic Thiem, Stefanos Tsitsipas and others, and a backhand featuring Daniil Medvedev and Stan Wawrinka. This year's Hulk is revamped and re-tooled. Enjoy the creation and feel free to make your own Hulk in the comment section.

On this week's Monday Match Analysis, we'll discuss Andrey Rublev's 2022 season after he won his 4th title of the year in Gijon. Has it been a success? And the same question applies to Felix Auger-Aliassime, who tacked on a second title in Florence after coming into the season without one. We'll also delve into why JJ Wolf has already shown superlative racquet talent relative to his peers and what part of Dominic Thiem's game might be better than it was before the wrist injury.
