Roland Garros / French Open 2024 [Men] - Grand Slam

How many of those short volleys has Novak dumped in the net today?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

That was a good hold. I won't edit my post to @nehmeth above, but, given that it's nearly 2am in Paris, I wonder how late Novak wants to go. He's complaining to officials now.

Sending a strong expresso to Novak wake up and finish this match

 

[kskate2]

He hasn't said anything about suspending the match tomorrow, he's yacking about the courts needing to be swept after 5 games

Please this is Precious from Novak, give him a rake, he knows how to sweep clay

 

[Moxie]

A 6-2 for Musetti! If Novak is to come back, he's have to go 5, meaning like 4am? He doesn't look interested enough.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Forza Lorenzo just Keep Your Head and Your Mind! or Else!
Grazie!

Sorry....that's not what I meant to imply. Just that it was late, and he was still complaining. I don't see any reason, or rule, now that they have lights, for them to stop. The AO and USO go very late.

Holy Toledo, Musetti duffed that! And it was a gimme.

 

[nehmeth]

Based on his performance this year, I have serious doubts that Novak is going all in to win this.

Nole v Mole. Have only followed the scores as I couldn't find a stream and have to get up early so won't be able to watch it. Wonder if it'll finish this morning. Novak's gotta be hoping Musetti gets cramps again! Remember he was all over him like a rash a few years back too till he got cramps and lost badly having won the first 2 sets.

Ssssh Fronty please lets not go there again regarding cramps, at present he is okay and playing like I know he can play
All he needs is to win the 4th set and it is his still a bit of a mountain to climb

Expecting to wake up to a Djokovic win tbh if this continues till they finish this morning. Don't trust Musetti in 5 setters if Djokovic wins this set.

 

[Moxie]

Uh, oh...trouble for Musetti!

 

[Moxie]

Djokovic breaks! Is he awake now?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Lorenzo???
Break back ASAP I dont want this to go 5 sets, also your countryman is one set away from being the new no 1 player
Of course no bloody pressure

 

[Moxie]

How many of those are Sinner?

 

[Front242]

How many of those are Sinner?

No idea tbh. All of them?! Anyway, Novak will win this I think. Not ideal finishing this late and recovery etc but, if he wins this set, he won't care how late it is and will want to finish it. Just don't trust Musetti's fitness at all.

 

[Moxie]

Musetti, you flunky!

3 of those losses were against Sinner

1 was against Musetti at MC in 2023

1 was against Nardi at IW this year
