Miami Open, ATP Masters 1000, 2019

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo - Perseus 5 all in 3rd.

No one watching?

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo overcooks his shots often.

Now perseus up 6-5 with shapo to serve.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo holds at love. Who says TB is eradicated in USA?

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo up a minibreak.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

shapo DFs and gives back the MB

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo up 5-3 with a DTL for a mb again.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo for president!

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shapo had -6 in differential whereas Perseus was 0 in differential, yet Shapo won.

 

[Fiero425]

Shapo had -6 in differential whereas Perseus was 0 in differential, yet Shapo won.

His aggressive plays from the baseline proved fruitful in closing out Perseus who should have closed it out in 2! This is a bad loss IMO! :whistle:

 

[GameSetAndMath]

In the young guns quarter Tiafoe and Shapo will play to decide who will be offered as a sacrifice to TMF.

Can not believe djokovic lost both Indian wells+ Miami, definitely way better at the slams in point of his career Nadal keeps his masters record for now.

He's clearly distracted by the talks over kicking Chris Kermode out of the ATP as the media are making him out to be the bad guy.

It has to happen sometime, or Fedalovic will start making the same kind of history as 100 years ago with few winners of all major events! They can't win them all! Fedal's probably stressing him out over this UNION crap behind the scenes! :whistle: :cuckoo:

Well yea djokovic could be distracted by that off court stuff, but he was still out played by RBA it was not the first time he lost to him this season.

 

[Front242]

Well yea djokovic could be distracted by that off court stuff, but he was still out played by RBA it was not the first time he lost to him this season.

Yeah not giving it as any excuse since he easily won set 1 by 6-1 and RBA has beaten him already this year as you mentioned but it does explain more the fact that he's now lost early in both Indian Wells and Miami.

I agree djokovic not playing the level he was at the AO this year since the off court stuff.

 

[Federberg]

I think it's just as simple as RBA has his number for the moment, if it was 2 different players who had put it to him then that's one thing, but this is the same guy..

[DarthFed]

Wouldn't read too much into MS losses for Novak right now. People forget he is also old and past his best, easy to forget when you win a few majors in a row. But regardless he lost to RBA at Doha and a couple weeks later he annihilated everyone at AO

 

[Federberg]

reasonable play from Roger in the first serve. Perhaps his level is rising a little. But somehow I still don't feel that comfortable..
