Whoa! What do you know ? Schnur beats Uncle Sam. Bonanza goes on.

An unexpected outcome in this event.
A very young final, one of the youngest in recent years, between Opelka, 21y and Schnur, 23.
Opelka downed Isner btw in 3 TB.

Opelka downed Isner btw in 3 TB.

He got Isner at the AO in 4 tiebreaks. I didn’t see either match, but I can picture it, since they’re 6’10” and 6’11”

Opelka is the new and improved Iznah. He's got John's number in TB's.

Have been out all day. Was it a good match?

I'm really impressed w/ Schnuur. This guy has some return. He was winning over 40% of Opelka's 2nd serves. Plus he picked some of the first serve bombs too.

Schnur really came out of nowhere. Even in Canada we have not heard of him. Some of these lower ranked Canadians sometimes had a chance to feature at our Open, but I don't think he ever was.
