Impressive win for FAA over the Andrey “the most beautiful hair in all tennis” Rublev. 6-7, 6-4, 6-2

So Felix plays Tsitsipas ( who he’s beaten several times) in the Finals. Can he get the monkey off his back, its weird if he’s ranked #9 in the world without ever winning a tourney.

Who the heck is Lahecka, the young Czech that Stefanos beat? Anyone watch that match? Player on the upswing?

Well done to FAA he turned the match around defeating Rublev 67(5) 64 62

FAA will play The Young Greek in the final

AP should be happy!

Interesting stat,

Tsitsipas in ATP500 finals 0-7
FAA in ATP Finals 0-8
YES ma'am, I'm very happy. He knows he can defeat the young Greek. Whatever his night before finals routine was for the past 8 finals , please absolutely abandon it. Eat something different, go see a movie, get on this board and engage yourself in competitive Banter with Front or whatever. Spin your serve in 3/4 speed until you feel you have the hammer.Go FAA!

Isner vs Opelka! Too strange for this day and age! It's a real throwback to my era with "serve-bots" and not much else in their games! :facepalm: :astonished-face::exploding-head:
I think there is more to Opelka than Isner, which is why he won, but they set a TB record in the 2nd...24-22. Sad, though, that TC showed this instead of Schwartzman d. Sonego. Surely would have been more interesting.

The only thing I am concerned about FFA is his low conversion BP rate.He should have won the 1st set,he had many BPs to convert?
Hopefully he can finally break through and get his first ATP win

I like Brooksby. I thought he had this, but things have gotten complicated.

EDIT: It turned into quite the battle, but Brooksby takes it in the 3rd set TB. Giron was good.

Felix finally did it! The way he played the final was super impressive! He was calm and played controlled aggression!

FAA, Sinner and Alcaraz

Tennis is in great hands in the next couple of years!

Finally the young FAA was able to steer himself to land in the winner’s circle. Congratulations on winning your first sets and championship final. Felix was not to be denied. Bravo! Btw.. don’t sleep on Joe Burrow in the SB. I said it 3 weeks ago, Joe Burrow ain’t afraid of nobody.
