Shanghai Rolex Masters 2017, ATP Masters 1000

I think even his team were surprised... he just made a snap decision not a calculated one.

 

[Federberg]

if he gets that I dare anyone to say he isn't the most successful player of all time

 

[britbox]

What's Connors on?

 

[DarthFed]

This ties Lendl. Would be kind of neat if he passes him at Basel

 

[Federberg]

106

 

[Busted]

We''ll have to agree to disagree about the USO draw. You cannot deny though that the lower half would have been a cakewalk even with a bad back, little prep and not much confidence

 

[DarthFed]

109 titles is still a tough ask

 

[Federberg]

12 away, if he can get a couple more titles this year it starts to look doable

 

[Federberg]

is it 109?

 

[DarthFed]

I agree Busted. Clearly Murray's slot was way easier. But the way he played vs DP, Tiafoe and Youz he could've lost before the final even in the bottom half

 

[DarthFed]

Yeah it's 109, pretty sure

 

[britbox]

The USO draw seemed stupid after the Murray withdrawal. They need to revisit how that works.

 

[Front242]

many of Connors were mickey mouse ones though

 

[atttomole]

If there was a grass masters tournament Roger could be sitting on about 34 masters tittles.

 

[Federberg]

y you're right

 

[britbox]

Yeah, the way the tour was structured, that 109 is inflated with church fete tournaments.

 

[Federberg]

109, fk... so still 15 away

 

[DarthFed]

Yeah I don't get why they can't reseed. The only thing one could argue is that players are preparing for a specific matchup after the draw comes out

 

[Front242]

church fete lol

 

[DarthFed]

Lol BB, those were the definition of Mickey Mouse tourneys
