Alcaraz had a set point a few mins ago, currently like 6-5 up in the 2nd set. He finally broke to take the set 7-5! 1 set all.

Don are you in Croatia now
Yes, enjoying summer in my home country, but down south on the island od Brac in the place called Bol. It has probably the best beach in Croatia called Zlatni Rat. We bought a small apartment here so just chillin' with no rush to do this and that.

Good for you, Croatia looks like a beautiful country, my friends always have said to me , go there, they love it
BTW sad news for Coric had to withdraw a shoulder problem again, the young man cant take a trick, he won a challenger tournament in Parma recently as well.

Watching the Alcaraz match v Struff now
Remember when Milos was playing and he used to wear 'that full sleeve on his arm' exactly what Alcaraz is wearing

Yes, Croatia is worth a visit.

I tought Coric wanted to prepare more for summer clay season since there is no points in Wimbledon and he has nothing to gain there. If it is a shoulder again then it is bad news. Coric probably played too much while growing up and now his body is giving up frequently. I hope he comes back where he belongs which is surely top 20-30.

Agree,maybe he needs more time in the gym to strengthen the shoulder, quite young to have shoulder surgery.
He has the talent , lets hope he makes some noise in the up coming HC season

Foki has lost the plot in his match against Hubi, to think he was serving for the match, got broken,rain delay has helped Hubi to find his game and it is 2 sets all, going to a 5th set, with Hubi having all the momentum

He was up 40 love triple match point and tried a tweener . That decision may come back to haunt him.

Looks like that's the match. I hope Kwon can take confidence from his performance, he has a nice game to watch. I never heard of him before :lol6:
He played Shapovalov well in AO this year. He has a dangerous game if he could find the right team he could be a nasty out for anyone.

Struff is soo good at the net, reflexed Alcaraz fhand, playing well is Struff.Alcaraz not playing a pre grass tournament before Wimbledon is showing like I thought it would.
Net cord also favoring the German today
