Cincinnati Masters 2022, Ohio, US - ATP Masters 1000

Just looked at Coric and Tsitsipas H2H.....1 all, though their most recent encounter was at the USO in 2020, in the 3rd round, Coric won in 5 sets, coming back from being 2 sets to one down.

I had to laugh out loud with this comment from The Young Greek on coaching,

":Coaching from the stand should have been allowed thousands of years ago ( I didnt realize tennis was that old It always existed for all the players.For me nothing changed. At least now I no longer get fined"..

And Tsitsipas only won cos Coric retired mid match. I'm giving Coric the edge here as he should be fresher than Tsitsipas after yesterday.

I would love to see Coric win, having to play qualifer's for starters in this tournament and going all the way to the final.

Same. Honestly after the drubbing he got from Cilic who owns their h2h, I was surprised to see him make the final here. Honestly wasn't surprised to see him beat Nadal before given it was Nadal's first hard court match in 5 months. For me, the biggest shock of the tournament was Shapavolov winning a few matches and Norrie who previously had a poor record on medium/fast hard courts reaching the semi.

Shapo's games has gone AWOL, since defeating Rafa at Rome earlier this year, he needs to get back Jamie Delgado, who he parted with earlier this year, when he was having decent results.Norrie is hard to beat at times his defence winning him games even on HCs

Coric breaks back and it did take him over 10mins to hold, he did and also told the umpire, he didnt like the amount of time he had to wait, as I am preparing to serve, should be on the server speed, not the returner. Good point Coric
4 games all

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

After a slow start Coric playing better and there will be a t/break for the 1st set

8 points in a row from Borna 6 sets points....The Young Greek has lost the plot

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Coric 1st set 76 (0) he was down 1-4 in the first set and has turned the match around!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I had today off, but I only have to go in for a few hours.

 

[Moxie]

Seems there's no love lost between these two.

 

[Moxie]

Tough hold there for Coric to open the set, but he gets it done.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

The Young Greek pushes the boundaries dosent he lol!
Papa Greek talking to his son though it is allowed

I dont think there is much love lost for most of the players on the tour, quite frankly, I know Murray hates him

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Love Coric's two handed bh used the pace of the Young Greek there, sent his BH down the line

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I really need to give up Spanish lessons and learn Greek, cant make out what Papa Greek said to his son there lol!
