US Open Day 6: Saturday, August 30

[nehmeth]

Adults running around catching balls with their 5 o"clock shadows.

:huh:

I think you meant adults with 5 o'clock shadows running around catching balls. :snigger

 

[TennisFanatic7]

Thought Andy played alright today, hopefully he can step it up slightly with Tsonga then Djokovic in prospect...

 

[tented]

At 6'10", congratulating John Isner for his great serve is like congratulating him for wearing large shoes.

 

[nehmeth]

JIsner completely chunks away the tiebreaker. :clap

 

[tented]

Kohlschreiber up two sets to one. :clap

 

[GameSetAndMath]

So, it is going to be a hat-trick for Kohly.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

The best server comes up with two double faults in the most important tie-break.
If your weapon does not come in handy when you need it, what is the point of holding
the weapon?

Thought Andy played alright today, hopefully he can step it up slightly with Tsonga then Djokovic in prospect...

Fingers crossed.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

If isner had given up this bp, he might as well have gone to Winson-Salem immediately.

 

[tented]

Wawrinka gets a walkover.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Thought Andy played alright today, hopefully he can step it up slightly with Tsonga then Djokovic in prospect...

Fingers crossed.

I didn't see Andy's second or third match and saw only bits of first match. Anyway, I think
Tsonga is probably the end of Road for Andy. It will definitely be on Ashe though.

 

[nehmeth]

Wawrinka gets a walkover.

Stan probably needed that match play more than the extra rest.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

At 6'10", congratulating John Isner for his great serve is like congratulating him for wearing large shoes.

Lost 2 tie-breakers today, not a good sign.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Tsonga now belongs to a breed oif players (top 10) the likes of whom Andy have not
beaten in an year. Is there reason to believe that things will be different this time around?

 

[nehmeth]

J.Isner is looking gassed out there. Kohli has more break points, but as yet unable to convert. On serve 3-4

 

[GameSetAndMath]

I think as long as Kohly can take this to a tie breaker, Isner will lose it due to nerves
caused by nightmares.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

good job kohly, saved two bps.:clap

 

[GameSetAndMath]

kohly gets out of jail with a tough hold.

 

[Iona16]

I have faith in my boy.

 

[nehmeth]

0-40 before J.Isner gets an ace.
