That was some tiebreaker. Very entertaining tennis from these two.

Goffin leads total points won, but is down a set.

If you have ESPN on your cable, you can watch it online.... good quality match and fireworks in the tiebreaker.

Cheers, thanks, but I got rid of my cable subscription alltogether (never had ESPN anyways, not sure it exists in Europe). Do they have an app where you can watch it on for free? I have a vpn.

Novak breaks. Looks like a solid day at the office despite the hard time Goffin is actually giving him.

Solid win 7-6, 6-4. Third final in a row and heading for his 6th title here.

Didn"t see the match but kind of saw this as a foregone conclusion. Goffin is a comfortable bet when he's playing those he's supposed to beat.

Nick having more trouble with Kei's serve than he did with Raonic.

Yes. He's starting to get a bit fired up though. We'll see who gets the "privilege" of playing Novak in the final.

Cahill is arguing that Nick should have done his homework to look at what Monfils did to trouble Kei. Nishikori is in total control and Nick is very rattled. He panicked away the last game of the first. A lot of maturing to go, I guess.

Kei came to play and Nick didn't. Come on, I'd like to see more fight here.

Alright, Nick broke back so he needs to hold his serve now. I don't have anything against Kei, but Nole and Nick never played so it would be much more fun, to me.

And at your request, @Billie, Nick finds his game and breaks back. :) He's finally raised his level.

I agree. Arguably, the more steady Nishikori would have a better chance against Novak, but it would be fun to see Nick and Novak play.

I don't think Kei has much of a chance against Novak. Nick has a "puncher's chance" but you wouldn't bet against Novak anywhere right now.

And everybody keeps saying (and it is true) that we need young guns to make a breakthrough in these masters tournaments.
