I wasn't making any comment about draws and simply stated I think Tsitsipas is a good guy in reply to Carol calling him a spoiled brat for no reason. No idea what the hell that has to do with easier draws 'cos that wasn't being discussed here at all.

You know that Moxie always has trouble following straight forward logic.

Your posts on ‘average ranking’ were within that category tho (and pretty dumb too lol).

While normally, there will be a let down after a big victory, I think Perseus is sufficiently strong mentally to allow that to happen. I have not seen RBA this year (I know results wise he is doing good and won Doha also). Nonetheless, I think RBA would have difficulty in handling a net rushing Perseus. RBA might have been able to handle Sasha though.

Perseus in 4.

Changed ny mind; RBA has been impressive but I do think Tsitsipas has enough in the tank. However I think it will be
In five tough sets.

Oh, come on. You went 3 rounds with Carol on the AO thread about draws, including a full analysis of Big 3 with average rankings. https://www.tennisfrontier.com/tenn...an-open-melbourne-atp-grand-slam.6287/page-35

Slow start for Tsitsipas, with RBA up the early break. I think he'll find his range, though.

After a sleepy start, Stefanos gets on even terms.
If he wins the first set, he wins the while while natch.
RBA played way to much to vin another long match.

Way to go Perseus! :clap:

I thought he will lose the first set and then come back to win. But, he got the first set in bag. Now, he should probably be able to roll it in.

When they play so well they deserve to win it doesn’t matter the “name”, don’t you think?
He plays well, but he is not exceptional. . Just steady.
Stefanos is destined for greatness.
Destiny will prevail over ordinary.

Probably not just roll it in, because RBA will not give up, but if Stefanos is relaxed and focused, should win.

Destiny is in the future, right now he is not even great. Tell me when he starts to win MS and GS, meanwhile today well tomorrow who knows

Ya, I agree. RBA will not fold. But, still Perseus should be able to win it in three.

This is the first time I am seeing RBA this year. I agree with mrzz that he appears to be a little bit more than a pusher now.

I have been trying to convince people that RBA isn't playing like a pusher now, and likely why his results have been better. But OK, it's out there now. I guess Mrzz had to man-splain it to you.
