Smart there from Berrettini...not so one-dimensional.
He is actually using his brain lol!
Actually Muzz could have won in straight sets he had 2 BPs and let Matteo back in the match in the 3rd set

TV showing Zverev v Varillas. He's showing the 2nd serve woes is the German, late in the 3rd set.

EDIT: Wow...the Peruvian up 2 sets to 1 on Zverev.

I'm waiting for the violent temper of Murray's to show w/ the frustration of dropping these last 2 sets! It'll be devastating if he loses after a lead! :yes:
Murray is grumpy. Your man Djokovic has a "violent temper." Keep the distinction in mind. How many racquets does Murray break? How many lines people has he hit, or balls launched into the stands? I don't remember that he's that guy. I don't think it's fair to say he has a "violent temper."

But Murray's not that good! He's looking for something that isn't there besides being a human backboard! I already confessed how bad I was going thru 60-70 rackets over a 30 year career playing and teaching tennis! Djokovic has high standards, keeping up with the hype of his serve, ROS, & improved net game! :astonished-face: :fearful-face::thinking-face::face-with-hand-over-mouth::face-with-tears-of-joy:

Murray IS actually that good, if you're giving a pass to players on anger management issues based on talent and accomplishment. (Which is why, btw, I'm sorry, but no one gives a rat's ass about how many racquets you ever demolished.) Oh, suddenly, it's just that Djokovic has "high standards?" You were talking about "violent temper," and now you change your tune when I remind you about Djokovic's antics. That's pathetic, honey.

Novak's gone thru a lot over the last couple years from aiming to win a Golden CYGS to being banned from ATP and a couple major events! :astonished-face:

Cry me a river...isn't that your quote? Again, you're making excuses. Hold players to the same standard. And it's not even the same standard. Murray is a grouch. Djokovic has a violent temper. If that bothers you, it should bother you about Djokovic.

As to the ESPN pay wall, I have found a way of dealing w/ that. Late last year, for the holidays, I got the Disney+ subscription. Guess what it comes w/? All access to Disney, Marvel, Hulu and the Disney family of networks which includes ESPN+.
