Miami Open - ATP Masters 1000 - 2022

[MargaretMcAleer]

I'm quite proud of both players! This has been their year; Kecmanović taking Novak's spot in the AO draw and getting to the 4th round and Fritz winning his 1st Masters event last week! Love the Serb's "slice" backhand! That was what I preferred to do unless passing shot was needed! I can watch this match all night long for some reason! They're playing as we like to coin the phrase, "playing within themselves!" It's not constant overplaying of shots; well not too much of it! Both rankings going up fast!

Yes I must say I have been impressed with Kecmanovic form so far this year

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well done to Kecmanovic defeating Fritz ( who ankle was playing up from the 2nd set ) 36 61 64

It's his new coach. The Nalby BH on full display.

We will get a rematch between a Spanish player and a Serbian player in the 2022 Miami Open Quarterfinal.

Remember, there was a match between a Spanish player and a Serbian player in the 2007 Miami Open Quarterfinal.

Funny seeing Nalbandian as a coach just saying

I thought he looked familiar but couldn't place him! Just tired I guess! Was missing the lit'l ponytail!

The Men’s Quarterfinals matches are set:

Medvedev vs. Hurkacz
Alcaraz vs. Kecmanovic
Sinner vs. Francisco Cerundolo
Ruud vs. Zverev

Personally, I would like to see a Medvedev/Alcaraz and Sinner/Zverev semifinal matches on Friday.

The battle between the mid-20s players against the future, young and upcoming players on a M1000 level tournament

If Medvedev wins this QTRS he goes back to # 1.
Alcaraz , what an enviable place to be in his tennis life, seemingly improving with each tournament, though It's hard to be believe he's 6'
Cerundolo; Cinderella run for him, but this really should be a slam dunk for Sinner,
Ruud for being #8 in the world has relatively few big wins ( Alcaraz at age 18 already has something like triple the number of wins over top 15 players).would love to see him finally get one on a bigger stage, but this is the type of player that usually is in Zverev's wheelhouse to beat routinely

It’s great to see Alcaraz still progressing. I’m hoping he can go all the way, but still a lot of tennis to play.

Crap..................................Sinner appeared to limp off the court

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I was just going to post that Cerundolo lost in qualies in IW.Making the q/finals in Miami is well done

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I should have stayed in bed that is 2 retirements I have witnessed today....I am becoming a Bad Omen

This is unprecedented! Players are dropping like flies! IMO they're doing it to themselves; overtraining, overplaying, and overworking points!

What happened? Ironically, I just turned on the TV to watch, and saw Sinner walk off.

I blame the 'so called' Sunshine Double....
