Novak can fly to France for the next few days without practicing and still defeat either one of these two .

OCO, is this a jinx tactic? Make it seem like Novak has a sure thing, then he's upset before the final! The 2016 USO draw was pretty weak w/ a couple walkovers & retirements B4 the final! Wawrinka was in Gawd-mode w/ his BH & thwarted Novak's defense of the title!

Good God,
Matteo had a hard fall and has rolled his ankle, physio helping him now getting up this dosent look good
Matteo has retired in this match, against Rinderknech, I cant believe the amount of injuries he has had in the last couple of years,
Rinderknech leading 64 5-3 before Matteo fell and had to retire

This doesn't look good. @MargaretMcAleer Any updates on his ankle..I hope the young fella doesn't have to miss any significant amount of time.

No I havent heard any more updates, I will check again, seeing that again just breaks my heart, he had to be in a wheel chair and taken out of the USO.Matteo has had enough injuries the last couple of years.

No pun intended Foe missed his big opportunity to win that set .

Shelton is giving Tiafoe all kinds of problems, I see. Nothing like watching tennis on an iPad in bed!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Ben Shelton that was some kind of TB for the 3rd set, young man!

Yep. Set point on his serve, no less. That’s gotta hurt!

I would be very interested in what type of game plan Brian Shelton will put together to attack Novak. Maybe he can call Primetime Deion Sanders who seem to have all the answers to everything lately

Lets see if Ben can win this first, then we can talk some tactics, what about 'that fhand' from Ben apart from his live left arm on his serve!
I would like for Ben down the track to get another coach, than his dad.

Did something happen to Tiafoe? Is he injured? Or just fading in the heat/humidity?

Nah, Big Ben energy has consumed him..big Foe is going to have to live up to his top ten rankings

Ah, gotcha. Thanks!

I just tuned in again during the TB.

Frances has to weather the storm and wait until Ben levels dip downward

You think that will happen? Ben’s looking like the fresher, trending player. But he may blink as he nears the finish line.

All he can do is play his own game! I'm not watching much, but from what little I've seen, Shelton's going "Andres Gomez;" big serve, bigger FH, and attacking the net when appropriate! If he can serve at a very high %, his chances are good to at least stay close!

Big Toe as @Kieran would say, is in all kinds of dukey. Down two sets and a break in the fourth

 

[tented]

Held at love to go up 4-2. I don’t see Tiafoe coming back, unless Big Ben breaks.
