Not sure there,I know the voice of Sam Smith
I might add Tom Rhen (adelaide boy who reads the sports here locally) and Casey Dellacqua are also good. Dylan Alcott likewise but most of the time he sounds too Raspy, not easy to follow what he says at the best of times.

I turned back to You Tube! After Mannarino blew that 1st set, I knew he was done! :sick: :facepalm::zippermouthface::ambulance::astonished-face:
It was a close set, and Mannarino couldn't close. He's playing an all-time great. What's surprising is that he hung in there for one set, and a great TB.

I hope Shapovalov can pull it off. I much prefer him to Zverev.

Oh Fiero it’s gotta be soo tough to hate watch a Nadal match, see a glimmer of fight from player X and then
root for that player you normally wouldn’t give a rat’s ass about just to have your dreams dashed….:cool:

Feeling your pain!

It looked like Denis was about to capitulate to the change in momentum, but no. 3-3 in the 2nd.

Someone should alert the police that the clown’s shorts have been located. Zverev is wearing them on court right now.

Rafa has a new mania...draping the towel carefully over some box at the back of the court.

Shapovalov has been a BIG mess this second set. Serving only 32% with 5 double faults.

Zverev to serve for the 2nd set now…

This second set describes both players level during a Slam event. Just no consistency and a lot of bad play especially on the serving side of the ball.
