This all Spanish youngster affair is a bit messy. Lots of errors mixed in w/ flashes of brilliance from both.

Davidovich Fokina sounds like a handy run of swear words. Must remember that next I’m provoked…

There. Fixed it.

Dusan had 3 BP's at 4-4 to serve for the match. They all went begging. You have to assume he lost his opportunity there to win it. Will probably get rolled now

EDIT: Spoke too soon. Djoke is gone in the 2nd set TB after setting up MP on a failed Djokosmash...

So wondering if there will be a delay for the winners to get their paychex w/ the tournament organizer booted out early.

Pushovic got trashed by Lajovic in straight sets.

I think @don_fabio is there today, so maybe he can give us the report back on the match.

I was SB Novak's match cause I am watching a Ladies QF match, Novak was up 4-1 in the TB for the 2nd set, went back and checked he lost?? hopefully Don Fabio will give us a report
BTW Novak was 1/16 on BPs??????

Also I am glad Sinner gave Musetti a walk over, apparently though illness, though in his previous match he was all over the place, and far from his best

It's actually worse: Novak had 3 set points - 6-3 in the TB, and Lajovic clawed them all back. I was about to go out and comeback for the 3rd set, but figured I'd watch the TB out. Very surprising.

Let’s not forget about the iconic missed Djokosmash to give Lajovic MP.

K had mentioned it above, so I didn't see any reason to rub it in.

I am feeling that Rafa is going to skip Roland Garros this year.Its been too long without playing and he strives on momentum.

I have to post this quote from Tsitsipas today after his match against De Minaur

" I had the patience of a donkey today"...........adds to the list of Tsitsipas quotes..........

I can find 1,000 reasons to rub it in.

What's wrong with Jannik Sinner?

What do they do to donkeys in Greece?

 

[Jelenafan]

So in Barcelona we will have a semifinal between Tsitsipas & Musetti

Aka:

“My backhand is prettier than your backhand” slugfest

 

[Kieran]

What's wrong with Jannik Sinner?

I get the impression he’s in need of rest. Watched a video of him earlier against Carlos, and I think he’ll become a very good player, by rising to the challenge of chasing Carlos. Young Chaz will drag him along. He’s a real honest player, Sinner, but I think he’s prolly feeling a little frazzled and needs his zeds…

The mind boggles lol!

The dangerous Cerundulo down 4-0 in the decider after taking the first set over the annoying Dan Evans.
