The real Tennis thread.

What an utterly sad sight to see Reilly Opelka in a Masters 1000 final. I really hope Medvedev will give him hell.

 

[tobydawq]

Wow, what a start by Murray in the battle between the smile-less players!!

 

[tobydawq]

If Tsitsipas loses this, it would be the ultimate humiliation of the NextGen.

 

[Red Rick]

These next few points will probably determine the fate of some object in my close vicinity

Why can't we have good things?

Since you were mean earlier :’(

 

[Red Rick]

Spanish not winning in La Vuelta, but tonight might be the big breakthrough of Carlos Alcaraz.

 

[tobydawq]

I bet Murray was sitting with his stop watch during Tsitsipas' toilet break there. God I hope he loses.

 

[tobydawq]

Hell, yeah!

 

[Red Rick]

Nobody escapes from Alcaraz

 

[KZD]

Tsitsipas didn't even play badly was but Alacaraz was just too solid from the baseline if he improves his serve he will be a Masters winning material soon.

Can Alex stop the King? Interesting semi in progress.

Don't think there can be much argument against Novak's goatness if he pulls this golden slam thingy off.

In the Olympic year that come after Covid season, US Open is like a Vuelta even more than it usually was. Everyone has questionable form, even Djokovic, he's just better than everyone.
For the ladies, every GS is a Vuelta.

Djokovic, Zverev and Medvedev are the three best HC players in the world right now tbh.

If anything Wimbledon was the wet fart draw

I don’t see anything in Medvedev’s game right now that can really trouble Djokovic. I watched the semi against Auger-Aliassime and that wasn’t a very good match. The Canadian couldn’t do much. He should be happy he scraped through the first round. I can see why he’s 0-8 in career finals.

 

[tobydawq]

The Grand Slam dream is fading rapidly. Medvedev to be the hero of our time.

 

[sir fly]

At least the NY crowd had the opportunity to witness the Grand Slam attempt.
Unlike the Federer - Nadal classic.
... Suppose a piece of greatness has to be left for the coming generations too.

Should've played the mixed doubles for the bronze.

 

[Red Rick]

Never seen Djokovic beat himself this bad. Ohwell.

 

[BullsFan22]

I guess I was wrong.

 

[tobydawq]

Hehe. Of course Medvedev had no part to play in that.

Hello strawman my old friend.

 

[tobydawq]

Hello strawman my old friend.

You literally wrote Djokovic beat himself... And previously you have said that Medvedev doesn't have anything that could trouble Djokovic in Grand Slams. For example, I was naïve when thinking that Medvedev would beat him in the AO final. He didn't and played badly but you took it as confirmation that you were right. Now, he played well (and Djokovic didn't) but then it's portrayed as if it's only Djokovic' doing that he didn't win the game. At least that's how I read your post.

To quote Gilles Simon: "Medvedev is a f*cking genius".
Djokovic played terrible, but I don't think he would have lost the match against many other players.

I mean Simon practically invented that style of play so ofcouse he'd love him some Medvedev.

Alcaraz is so *** good.

Thank you for reading my TED talk.
