Sock takes the opening breaker over Nishi. Upset in the air? Is Kei tired? Meanwhile, RBA is serving for the match against Popsicle.

 

[Denis]

Kei is out.

He looked totally wasted, and had medical treatment for his hip. Hopefully none of the other contenders get very far and he can recharge the batteries for the last two tourneys.

 

[kskate2]

Nishi is gone in straights. Shouldn't have played 3 weeks in a row

 

[Kieran]

Maybe next year Nishi will skip Kuala Lumpur and keep some powder dry for the big fries...

^ One can only hope

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Thiem is going to be a good player, but that forehand has to be flattened a out a bit to be effective. I like his backhand.

A DTL backhand winner from Thiem earns a rightful " Outrageous" from Koenig.

Exactly. Time to have Novak-like schedule. Only GS, MS and the occassional 500 events. It will be much better for his body too.

 

[Mile]

This Thiem obviously doensnt know whom is he playing with. No respect at all.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Truly enjoying this match. Thiem redlining though...

 

[Federberg]

I think he's great to watch. Not sure how far he can go. His mentality seems great, and his stroke production looks solid. Is he big enough though?

 

[Federberg]

Interesting... on the ATP site, Thiem is listed as 6ft 1in. Is he really? Looks shorter to me. Is this one of those times where male tennis pros say they're taller and heavier, while women say their shorter and lighter?

Actually he did what was the best to make sure he could qualify for London. Between KL amd Tokyo he made 750 points.
By winning only Tokyo, and going after Shanghai, to top that he would have needed to get into minimum DSF. which was never a guarantee it may happen.

 

[herios]

Very good by Novak.
Next up Kukushkin, who eliminated two good players so far, Robredo and Anderson.

milos raonic has retired..(not completely tho)

..good news for andy murray is the wtf rank race.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

the rafa rollercoaster roadshow is back in action..for a bit at least.

 

[Federberg]

wow... Lopez? Really? Is this the appendicitis? I'm not being facetious

How do you mean "not completely" ? His serve left the building or something?

 

[the AntiPusher]

Lopex is actually playing better the 2nd portion of his career.. I like his game.. Well, Rafael is on the court and competing.. that's about all I can say good about his play

 

[Mile]

Nadal is risking his own health. It is a bit dangerous and a big nonsense.
