Win or lose, Arnaldi is comporting himself well on the big stage. Lots of nerves, but some excellent shotmaking too.

My son said the other day look at this fat guy. I raise my head and there is Stan Wawrinka on the screen. I guess it's end of discussion if Stan is ripped. :face-with-tears-of-joy:
Have you seen the young Swiss guy Stricker at all? he looks like he enjoys his food :)

Yep he has the shots, still erractic and green, looks about 13 years old to me :)

Rublev has been known to 'self harm' himself in a match as well :)

It’s a Russian thing.

Djokovic vs Fritz tomorrow as the 2nd match at Ashe in the afternoon. It will be hot and humid so Djokovic will hate the conditions. Let's see if Fritz will take advantage on the conditions. Huge opportunity for Fritz tomorrow afternoon.

Yep, worst possible scenario for Novak, especially if it’s high humidity. We‘ll see if Fritz can handle everything.

It’s good that Novak gets to play in the real conditions. Fritz took him to five sets in Oz 2021, but I wouldn’t call it a ‘huge’ opportunity.

Question. I checked the weather in NYC and there’s a small chance of a thunderstorm, but there is a heat advisory. Is that the reason for the roof being shut on both the stadium courts?
