That was a stinger from Stan.

 

[Moxie]

Loving the wooden library chairs for the players at the back of the court. Very old-school.

Oh Stan..............................Nick breaks while Stan was serving for the 2nd set......5 games all

Now 6-5 Kyrgios...Stan to serve to stay in.

 

[Moxie]

TB it is. Go, Nick!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

T/break time,I have to back Nick

 

[Moxie]

Nick doesn't often take a lot off the 2nd serve, thus, I think, proving that he wants it.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I am only human love Stan's BH down the line winner takes the 2nd set 76(3)

 

[Carol]

Great Stan, hope you will held well the third set!

 

[Moxie]

Nick landing too many shots into the net.

 

[Moxie]

Don't know what happened with Nick and the crowd, but Stan trying to capitalize.

 

[Moxie]

Kind of out of nowhere, Nick gets the break. He is the hardest of all players to read.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I do not think Stan will be sending Nick a Christmas card this year a lot of fist pumping from both players on each others errors.....

No love lost, even going in.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Nick consolidates his break which kind of came out of nowhere leads 4-2

 

[Moxie]

Nick is cramping.

Not hardest but most unpredictable. I would not be surprised if he lost despite leading. just remember how against Nad he complained about back pain and threatened to retire. He just does not take tennis seriously no matter if he wins or loses, that how he is. And unpredictable results follow...

Of the bolded above, I don't see the difference. I disagree that he doesn't take tennis seriously. He just has a difficult relationship with it. I think he wants to win this match.

 

[Moxie]

Gutsy, wacky win from Nick. Say what you will about Kyrgios, but he makes for entertaining, dramatic tennis, when he's into it. He won the two most thrilling matches of the last 2 days.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Congrats Nick winning in 3 sets 75,67(3) 64......tight match you did hang tough especially in the first set

Who does Nick play next?
