Unnamed poster, when Zverev is down two breaks in the 5th: "Will Zverev every win a single Slam?" Zverev wins back two breaks, post mysteriously vanishes. Ha.

Anyhow, that was a close one for Sascha.

Talllon's legs deserted him when it mattered sad to say, though the 'entitlement one' did play a great TB

I watched some of FAA v Shelton match, Shelton has arm issue, still FAA plays much better on clay, and I would have been surprised if Ben won

Meanwhile Rafa is playing a golf tournament in Mallorca in sunshine :)

Holger Rune needs to finish his match today. Hopefully, he is able to win in straight sets so he will have a lot tank against Zverev on Monday.

Hope so too. The producers keep showing Holger's psysio as his coach Kenneth Carlsen. Kenneth would be proud if he had his hair...

Not surprised The Dagerous One aka Cerundolo won, dropping the 1st set to Paul, then winning with ease the last 3 sets, he can be dangerous on clay, 'mind the pun' when his game is "on"clay

And in one of Rune's last service games. I hadn't watched him play so much prior to this. He hits really big, and with a lot of accuracy...sort of doesn't miss, a la Djokovic. Commies say he's much improved, which must be true, given this showing.

I know Rune can be polarizing around here, but I'm glad to see him playing some of his best tennis again. He showed a lot of guts and heart at the end of this match to pull off the win. I want to see him do well, because he can make the top of the game interesting for years to come, if he realizes his potential. IMO.
I can't believe Holger came back to win that TBR he was 1-6 ..that's has to be one of the best come back in a while..( I know he blew a 5-0 TBR in AO..) the Italian guy was killing Holger in the TBR so I turned the TV off

My Italian Cobolli will learn a lot after losing that TB, he was playing soo well and then? though all credit to Rune he deserved his win

OMG Casper Ruud shot a tweener shot from the back of the court for a cross court winner!

Musetti gets it back on serve v. Novak in the 2nd.
