The real Tennis thread.

I thought it was over there. But he lives to fight another day (set).

 

[iBanesto]

Sinner had MP in the 3rd set.

Nole survives.

 

[tobydawq]

Djokovic' moment in the sun looks to be ending.

And I mean that literally. The sun is setting, so soon the court will be entirely in shadow. That should suit Djokovic a lot more if you listen to the clever tennis people.

Organisers rigged this by making this the day match /s

It had to end some day but this isn't pretty

 

[iBanesto]

Nole looked physically tired which makes sense compared to Sinner who did not drop a set before this match.

 

[tobydawq]

Funny how similar this match was to Alcaraz' match against Zverev.

Let's go, just one more to go Jannik!

Btw, I knew Sinner was from South Tirol but didn't realize he is from Innichen. Do we know if Mr. Innichen himself, @Mayomaniac, happens to know him or has some other personal connection to him? That town is not a big place

Nah, he's from Sexten and was born in the hospital in Innichen because it's the nearest.
That said, he has more hardcore fans in Innichen than in Sexten. Last year a few guys travelled to Australia to support him, that's a bit over the top...

Quite the comeback Medvedev's got going on right now...

 

[tobydawq]

Incredible comeback! The wife beater is out!

 

[Gigs_98]

Today is a great day for the ABZ cult

I don't know what that is.

I don't know what that is.

The Anyone But Zverev cult

 

[tobydawq]

The Anyone But Zverev cult

I think that's a fine opinion to have and don't see myself as a cultist...

 

[iBanesto]

Medvedev's comeback!

 

[tobydawq]

Medvedev leads Sinner by 11 winners to 2 after half an hour. Very predictable player...

Surprised Red Rick hasn't liked this.

Djokovic
Nadal
Federer
Sampras
Laver
Bjorg
Agassi

The Medvedev option.

It kinda is in that Medvedev accounts for about 98% of brain cells of all the nextgen players.

Medvedev vs Zverev matchup especially is funny cause basically Zverev can actually do just about everything better yet he loses every time cause Medvedev has the much better tennis mind and mentality

 

[tobydawq]

What an insane performance by Medvedev. And now Sinner has completely lost the plot. Four games won in two sets after only having been broken twice the entire tournament. Ouch.

 

[BullsFan22]

Medvedev broken. He needs to keep the pressure on, because tennis can change very quickly.

 

[tobydawq]

Well, the miracle didn't last long enough.

 

[Red Rick]

Well, the miracle didn't last long enough.

Medvedev paid the price of wasting so much energy in the first week.

Medvedev paid the price of wasting so much energy in the first week.

More than 24 hours on court during the tournament. I wonder if that has happened before.
