Medvedev is starting to serve really well. Sinner just needs to concentrate on his own serve until maybe 4-all in the 2nd set.

McEnroe was playing out of his mind; up 2 sets to Love & up a brk. in the 3rd! He let his attn. go "walkabout" & was PO'd by photographers! Idiot! :facepalm:
He was up a break in the fourth, but yeah he lost focus completely. I believe he taunted Lendl at one stage but the turnaround happened because he began to get anxious and blew on the photographers as a symptom of this. Had he been able to keep this shit in himself and weathered the nerves, things would be different. I think it’s one of the greatest upsets in a GS final ever - and Lendl on his best surface was facing Mac on his worst…

Lars use to coach Clara before didnt he? hopefully Clara can stay injury free, I like her game, another player that 'has fire in their belly' and does not take a backward step
Yes when they were both juniors and while he was on a break from Holger in the summer. She unfortunately have backproblems and had to pull out of the tournament she was playing this week.

Not good news with a back problem, hopefully she can have good health for 2024, she has a promising game. I also read yesterday from Rune via his twitter a/c he and Becker will be together in 2024.

Meddy is just dense. This tactic of returning from Rome does not work. He gives up so much court and his opponents don;t mind taking it
He's always done it. He's got a big backswing. Obviously, he feels more comfortable with the time.

I knew when Medvedev started to serve really well at the start of the second set, it will be tough for Sinner to win straights.

I am just hoping that if Sinner does win today, he will be fresh tomorrow.

Meddy has left the court with the physio.Jannik not happy at all losing the 2nd set
Jannik has to improve his 1st serve , 54% not good enough, dipped in the 2nd set

Sinner’s 1st BP opportunities since the 1st set! That‘s how well Med has been serving well!

Okay Jannik you broke his serve lets consolidate and your first serve percentage needs to be higher it dipped too much in that 2nd set
Forza Jannik!
