those droppers are no good Red. Go back to what was working an effective ground game

Jesus broken

Also, the reason I am more agitated or vocal right now is because my expectation(s) for Sinner is Top 4/5 player in the world. He needs to show the fans/world that he will be consistent Top 4/5 player and not just an occasion bright spot here and there.

I think everyone including Sasha loved ones picked Sinner to win

 

[rafanoy1992]

Of course, Sinner with three bad shots to give the break back *sigh*

This is where Sinner is trying to be too cute or trying to much in his drop shots and etc...

He is actually 22 years old. While he is young, I still think he is not in his physical peak or peak stamina yet. Also, it seems like a humid night so that will drain his energy a little bit more.

And Zverev is?

Sinner is a veteran; 3rd full year on the tour, so to hang in a tough extended match should be expected, “peak” form or not.

He has loved ones? who knew

Good point. No more excuses. Time to put on the big boy pants. Who wants this match?

 

[kskate2]

DF's are the majority tonight. Haven't seen a huge amount of aces

To be fair, I am not making excuses from Sinner. I am just saying that Sinner might want to win the 2nd set quickly.

Ya think??

Two of the better returners in the tour. Also, both players have long wingspan so it will be hard for both of them to ace each other.

 

[Moxie]

I see that Le Carote are in the house!

 

[rafanoy1992]

Ya think??

Well, he can win a 75 minute 2nd set, but I would prefer for him to win a 50 minute 2nd set.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Thats the way use your ground game off both wings Jannik....

 

[kskate2]

at this point, he just needs to win this set so they can play BO3

 

[Moxie]

Good hold there for Sinner, but he has to stop being so sloppy. Piss Zverev off with game and he'll self-implode. More discipline.

DF against Novak game, those will make you Novak's prison sweetie

 

[rafanoy1992]

Good hold from Sinner, but he still needs one more game to grab the 2nd set. It will be interesting to see if he will try to break for the 2nd set.

Moment of truth for Sinner here. Hold and we get a BO3 match...

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Lets serve it out Jannik, your 1st serve percentage is still below 50% which is sub par at this level
Your have been far from your best tonight

 

[Moxie]

Nice! 2nd set to the Italian.
