Miami Open, Florida, USA, ATP Masters 2017

[Federberg]

Tiafoe looks quite good. More solid than I expected. Not sure what to make of his prospects though

 

[the AntiPusher]

Today Roger is slicing and chipping his bh..Tiafoe is playing fantastic during the pressure points..

 

[Federberg]

he's got a beast of a forehand

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

fedster v teefs zooming towards a tb..

 

[Federberg]

That forehand of his is a serious serious weapon. It's a good base to become a top player. No really obvious weaknesses exposed so far..

 

[Federberg]

1st set to Wog... but this young man is a baller. He is rapid around the court, big serve, big big forehand. Backhand's ok, colour me impressed

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

distance run 1st set..

federer 486m..tiafoe 708m lol.

 

[Federberg]

And Tiafoe gets the break! We have a game on our hands

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

yes...the kid got some skillz and speed.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

dammit janet..my skysports feed is about 30secs behind..i saw ur bp poast before the bp happened.

must be careful when entering thread. lol.

 

[Federberg]

Breaks back!

 

[Federberg]

bloody 'ell the backhand's not bad either

 

[Federberg]

I was trying to figure out where I'd seen his forehand before. It looks like a better version of Gulbis's. Far less agricultural. Probably because they have a similar grip, but this one looks less likely to break down. I think that's where you have to attack him though

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

teef with the worst volley of all time.

 

[Federberg]

haha! Yup. Still got a lot to learn, but he's done ok. Seems composed generally. But Wog has put his foot down in the 2nd set

 

[Federberg]

Lol! That SABR was a bit naughty

 

[shawnbm]

I'm in grandstand with my son as Dominic and Borna take the court. How's the level been in the stadium with Roger and the young American?

 

[the AntiPusher]

Pretty good match for the ole man.

 

[El Dude]

Legit heart issue or is he terminally ill and in desperate need of heart medication like Sharadopa?

I think he has a similar issue to Mardy Fish, although am not sure.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

was an excellent quality match for rd 2. apart from the volley by tiafoe.

I'm gonna watch coric v theim I think..tell those dark clouds I a]saw to go away if you are there.
