Yes they were disgusting shorts,I too refrained from bringing it up,as Rafa was giving us fan a bit of suffering in the match

Can you imagine the top and those shorts together? EEK

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Oh well I thought the world no 3 player upped his game in the 2nd set,though it was close 64
Going to a decider

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

More like some oddly spray-painted nonsense. I was too nice to mention the white shorts version that Seb Korda was wearing that had what looked like an embarrassing stain on the back. Who thought this one up?

Maybe an artist with a spray gun that exploded lol!

 

[the AntiPusher]

We thought Nike was bad
Whoever was the designer for Addidas...with this tied dyed look should be banned period

It looked like Korda went number #2 in his tennis shorts vs Rafa

Behave LOL....( though your not wrong)

No 3 player has found the rhythm on his serve and Paul so far in the 3rd set cannot make inroads in it.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Tommy's 1st serve went missing and the No 3 player breaks early in the 3rd set

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

A DF from the No 3 player and we are back on serve in the 3rd set ...Paul to serve 3-4
Just as I was saying impressive serving from the No 3 player he gets the 'yips on his serve'
Tommy has to get 1st serves in to have a chance in this 3rd set

4 all 3rd set
5 all 3rd set.....both players getting their 1st serves in.,could be headed for a t/break.Paul has to continue to keep points short like he was doing so well in the 1st set,the longer the rally goes No 3 player usually wins

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

6 all t/break to commence between Paul and No 3 player for the final set

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

A aggressive but controlled attack from Paul in the t/break he is ahead 5-1

That didn't last! It's unbelievable that Zverev's right up there with Murray and Wawrinka being able to take Novak in important matches! How he struggles with any American is beyond me! True enough they can redline periodically where shots are all gold, but it usually doesn't last! Sascha's gonna rue the day he couldn't hold serve; actually DF'n 4 times in the break!

Paul d No 3 player 62 46 76(2)!!!!!!

Well done Tommy Paul!!!!!!!!!!!!

We all know that the No 3 players has 'yips' in his serve and then his whole game collapses...

Thank you Tommy for removing the angry one from the premises. Doing the ATP's job.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Tommy Paul sounds like he has a southern accent an I wrong?

I hope this latest crop of American men can go a little further than the last! So far we're lucky to get a couple good years out of them before falling back into obscurity! Where's Ryan Harrison? Isner and Querry played yet again early in a tournament with John surviving! I like the games of Tiafoe, Fritz, Harris, Brooksby, & Opelka! Not sure they can really overtake the Euros for any real length of time!
