Don’t forget also the Drooling one is as old as Methuselah, hard to get the respirator courtside.

I place a lot of the blame on him, even with the bad grass and his elderly state he should've done better there this past decade, or the past 12 years if we go back to 2008. He's only won 3 of last 12 and if you get hard/wet over finals he has only made 7 of last 12 total.

The third quarter is a land of opportunity being free of members of Big Three.

It was bookended by Tsitsipas and Thiem. Both are gone right in the first round.

Also, RBA and Kyle Edmund are two more seeded players to exit from this land of opportunity today.

What a way to make use of the opportunity?

Thiem will back back stronger than ever, next season at the slams might even win the French open?

Looks like Kyrgios could take advantage of this if he only resists getting disqualified against Johnson.

Tsitsipas needs to get his head on straight. He seemed like a mentally tough cookie before RG this year but he's been a disaster since then. Seems to be another Zverev in the making.
I heard a commie make the comparison...that Tsitsipas is over-thinking and self-aware with the success he is (had been) having. Hopefully only temporary. But there is no excuse for his loss of conditioning today. It isn't even hot, and it wasn't a 5th set. Not good in a 21-year-old.

We know Nick can't keep his cool for ten days in a row.

Now, it looks like FAA wants to say no to land of opportunity.

Juicic survives. We may have a redeeming job for him to perform in round 4.
I didn't see any of that match, but I thought Klizan would give Cough Drop more trouble.

What do you mean? His match hasn't started yet, but it should be good against his countryman Denis yet again in the 1st Rd! :whistle: :nono:

Update: I guess he is going down in flames! I told you guys; all these NG'rs who've been playing so well always seem to crash and burn when it really counts in the majors! :nono: :facepalm: :banghead: :cuckoo: :ptennis:
