Great scrap going on now between the lovebirds, Tsitsipas and Medvedev. Tsitsipas has had match points, but the Russian clinging on. I kinda sense that Tsitsipas has turned a corner in this rivalry, and if he wins he’ll have taken four of the last six

If he wins. I think all tennis players should hate each other the way these boys hate each other. It would be healthy for the game…
I love these Maury drama matches. Tsits has a Maury rivalry w/ Zed and I believe he's turned the corner there as well winning the last couple. So it appears the common denominator is the Greek.

Now we get to see if the Greek can shake off losing that TB. He had his chances, as he’ll know, and Medvedev‘s confidence will go up several degrees. I get the feeling Medvedev will win now.

Daniil's the only player I worry about when it comes to Novak winning a champ.! That wirey, skinny body's quite durable & can frustrate Nole! :thinking-face:

There’s been some great matches in this event so far. None by Rafa or Novak unfortunately. Novak has been playing too good for his matches to become interesting, and Rafa has been playing too badly…

He hasn’t been the same this year though, since Australia. I’m not saying that because Rafa beat him, but losing that match took something large out of him…

I feel Meddy needs this win more than The Young Greek, his game has been in disarray, for sometime, lets see if he can get his mojo back now and win the match

I didn't watch that AO match! Was it like their USO contest; Daniil playing too far back where Rafa able to run him to death, esp. w/ dropshots? :facepalm:

That’s a pity, you’d have enjoyed it…

Have you placed a wee bet......:)...gosh I am suddenly sounding Scot lol!
I had a measly €5 down on Tsitsipas to win 2-1 and chickened out and cashed it out before it started 'cos I bet on a WTA match earlier for under 19.5 games and lost the bet by one game 6-4 6-4 which annoyed me. Looking like he's dropping serve here so maybe it was a good omen.

The Greek unraveling again just like the TB's he played against Djoke recently. This isn't a shut door for Meddy. He's proven this year that he can falter when closing out a match

The Young Greek looks tired to me maybe he should have eaten a banana in the break :)
