Huge win for Shapavalov against Zverev

    alistair Didn’t see that coming. Shap now coached by Jamie Delgado.

      Dan yep, got a lot of variety to his game and I always love a one handed top spin backhand. His QF against Nadal will be one to watch

      Augier Aliassime and Medvedev has the makings of a cracker. Could be a big surprise on the cards. You watching @Dan

        alistair I am, mate. He should’ve nabbed that match point.

        Predictions for the final?
        Medvedev in five. Should be a classic

        It’s been a while since I’ve seen such a mad bastard like Medvedev in tennis. Was like a serial killer in the semi finals. Losing his mind with the ump and then all giggly in the post match interview with Courier.

        Should be in the bag 3-1, unless Rafa does something legendary which is also quite possible.

        This 2nd set is crucial for Nadal.

          Dan don’t think Med made one unforced error

            Tbf this first service game of the 2nd set.

            alistair World number 2 and reigning US Open Championship for a good reason.

            Consistency.

                alistair Yeah as his forehand is so solid, prob the best in the game.

                  Dan that dipping backhand slice drop was amazing by Nadal

                  Fuck me, Nadal is expending a huge amount of energy trying to close out this second set

                    alistair He’s never short of energy but he’s being made to work for every point. And Medvedevs fitness is up there with the best of them. Whoever makes the least mistakes will probably win it.
