No worries.....

 

[Moxie]

You are right that you see the difference in the experienced doubles team.

 

[Moxie]

No worries.....

That's why I won't look when it's tight.

Thanasi fhand has been on fire tonight

Thanasi fhand has been on fire tonight

What a summer he had. Winning in adelaide and potentially the doubles. Many including me, had written Kokkinakis off.

 

[Vince Evert]

Mox and Margaret, a question: what's the best match of doubles you saw?

I am soo happy for Thanasi.quite frankly with all the injuries and illness,I thought he might not find his way back to tennis

I will have ti think on that one....hard

 

[Vince Evert]

Two that came to my mind is a Davis Cup game, the 1986 final Australia vs Sweden.
Pat Cash and John Fitzgerald versus Stephan Edberg and Anders Jarryd. The aussies won it in 4 sets - 6-3, 6-4, 4-6, 6-1. Pivotal match as it put the australians 2 rubbers to 1 lead.

 

[Moxie]

3 BPs...

 

[Moxie]

Break to the K's.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I think it will a long way back for the MM's here
Thanasi and Nick have very good serves
