Kokkinakis has pulled out. Hopefully only to rest.

 

[herios]

Kokkinakis was replaced in the main draw by young American Tafoe, as a lucky loser.
Tafoe lost in the last round of the qualifying to Bemelmans.

The first of maybe 42 matches between them, including 10 slam finals, 15 MS finals, two WTF finals in succession, and a bunch of semifinals at the big events?

Count me in the "this is one to watch" group. Dominic seems to have righted the ship after a rocky start to 2015. Kyrgios is having a stellar season, the upset over Roger was outstanding. I'm def rooting for Dominic, but I am hoping for great tennis from both of them.

Krygios retires in the first set against Thiem 4-3. Says that he kept touching his elbow. Uh-oh...

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Darn...

 

[herios]

Here we go again. How long did he play since the last injury?

I like it, oh yeah.

 

[herios]

Kyrgios will have an injury prone career. That is why he will not be a great champion. He cannot play more than 2-3 months and gets injured.
Del Potro 2.0
