Murray doing Murray things again,

I'm just looking at the result thinking how crazy it is what he's doing right now. Total drama almost every match he plays this season.

I know Don it is just crazy, though you got to give him credit, he just refuses to lose

His fighting spirit is remarkable. It feels like there is more tennis left in him than in Thiem. At least that's the way things are looking at the moment.

Agree, I feel Domi needs to go back to challengers and actually win a tournament, gain confidence and also build his ranking upwards, he cant expect to get WC's all the time in tournaments, he went out in the 1st rd at the AO, was given a WC, being a former champion at IW, he has been given a WC this year.

Lloyd Harris withdraws from Dubai tournament, Murray enters the main draw without a WC, Alexei Popyrin takes the last Dubai WC

FAA is letting Daniil live rent free inside his head.. Felix's serve is not winning enough free points today. He needs to spin it in and try to continue the point . It's almost impossible to ace or hit through Daniil's defensive position

FAA serve is letting him down in this match, he breaks back in the 2nd set, good returning 3 all

I think he heard Us Felix has begun to create angles and let The mad Russian swing for the fences

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

FAA SP on your serve? again when your serve was needed it let you down, you should have won the 2nd set in a t/break
Medvedev d FAA 64 76(7) he will play Murray in the final tomorrow

As I've been saying, players like FAA have a nice, solid game, but no real weapon vs an elite player! Daniil was only in danger thru own errors!

FAA has weapons but Daniil's defensive breaks down his FH. It was a good match

FAA serve needs attention it breaks down in crucial times in match, he should have won the 2nd set, the SP was on his serve

Arthur Fils, just playing his 3rd career ATP main draw, reaches a 2nd SF, after defeating Stan Wawrinka 62 63 to reach the last 4 in Marseille. He is 14-2 in 2023 including challengers.Now one win away from top 100.

Wouldn't it be great to have THREE young studs in Alcaraz, Rune, and Fils? Better yet, wouldn't it be great to have an actually elite Frenchman?
