You mentioned his foot when he lost to Musetti. Hope it's nothing serious. Berrettini is having some back luck with injuries.

Matteo has been told by his team to rest his foot, quite frankly, regardless of these present injuries, to me Matteo has not been the same player since he had to withdraw before Wimbledon started due to COVID., during the lead up grass seasons tournaments before Wimbledon, he was playing well, I thought he had a good chance to go deep again at Wimbledon this year.

Great wins today for Thiem and Wawrinka. Thiem v. Paul went to the wire, and Thiem had to come from a break down in the 3rd.

He was also down 2 mp's in the deciding TB at 6-4 and completely turned that thing into a win. Paul will have nightmares about serving for the match and those lost opportunities in the TB. But these are exactly the type of wins I was hoping to see from Domi earlier. Maybe it's just taken awhile for him to build that confidence to fight out there.

Tommy should hang is head in shame, agree he will have nightmares about the match serving for the match, then the match was on his racquet in the 3rd set t/break.I just sat and shook my head in disbelief....

I like Tommy Paul, and he will regret his missed opportunities, but I was pulling for Thiem, because I want to see him get back to winning ways, and this is just the kind of match that will help the confidence. Crowd helped him, too, as this is home tourney for him. And, yes, @Fiero425, it was a big celebration for a Tuesday, but he was appreciating the crowd's help, too. He needed that win, and he knew it.

Big test, which I don't really expect Thiem to pass. But I'd be happy to be surprised.

I still feel Dom has to win a tournament so far he has not been able to do,,even at Challenger level, which is very competitive, he is using his PR to get into these higher grade ATP tournaments, which he can only use for 9 months, or, hoping for a wild card, lets see how he fares for the rest of the year

I still feel these wins over top players mean something. Don't you think it's important for him to test his luck against solid competition? I do.

They do in ways, I still would like to see him win a tournament, success winning a tournament is a confidence booster moving forward, that is just my opinion.
