I will have to SB that match Don and watch the match later on delay, my tv channel repeats all the matches later which is good if I miss them live
Cool. We normally have a playback feature for the last 7 days, so you can pick anything you like and just play it.

Yeah, it's better fight between Coric and Foki.
Wow, nearly 2 hours, and only on the 5th game of the 2nd.

I believe Zverev said this court was his favorite court in the world, not having a good day on it so far
Alcaraz and his drop shots, he plays them soo well.

Alcaraz lost 2 service points in that 1st set, the kid is on another planet in this match up so far

I’m rooting for Coric. I hope he pulls through this one.
I was just finding myself rooting for him, too, even playing Foki, who I also like. Coric needs it more, I think.

I think the court in Madrid suits Coric's type of player better, to me is a more attacking, aggressive type of player which suits the courts in Madrid, still I have a soft spot for Foki.
Coric won 2nd set 63

Foki took a long toilet break. Coric was angry on the umpire, but it turns out Foki also took a medical timeout over there. So it was total about 8 minutes. Coric was not aware of the medical. Looks like break of momentum tactics.

You know most of the time when Sasha does a fault on his first serve, you know what is coming lol!
Alcaraz 5-2 and will serve for the match, well Sasha did win a couple of games

Carlos has dropped 6 points on serve, so far, with that, his first DF, and he's serving for the match. Pretty impressive,

Total demolition from Alcaraz 61 62....nothing much else to say, I have run out of adjectives on this young player.
Alcaraz is 26-2 so far in 2023
