US Open, Flushing Meadows, NY USA - Grand Slam (Men)

[the AntiPusher]

Although I am happy, I would not look too far ahead, especially as we don't know whether back being good is for good or varies on a day to day basis.. Roger should win against Kohly considering the 11-0 H2H and also the fact that Kohly is not exactly lighting up the fire recently.

The QF on the other hand would be much tougher than that, but should still winnable if Fed is healthy. Thiem is basically a clay courter and does not do too well on hard courts and can be rushed to commit errors. JMDP, assuming he has only slice backhand, is beatable too.

I think Kohl is gonna be tricky for Fed because although PK doesn't have been weapons he can move Roger around the court similarly but cleaner than Tiafoe did if that makes sense..

Haven't they played before? I guess, idk.

Yes, a few times. H2H is 6-2 in favor of Bull. The six matches won by Bull were in straights. The two won by dog went to distance.

If he plays like last night it will be a quick straight set match as Kohli will be bullied and will start pressing. But again if the Fed from the first two rounds shows up he is in big trouble. I don't see PK as a Tiafoe in any way but at this point he is basically a better version of the Dr. who has seen much better days.

PK is a good mover like Tiafoe and sure Roger will play bully ball ..

Today may be the end of the road for Shapo but the kid impressed big time. And he is already there physically . And he has a great support system around him. Sky is the limit. Today, I just want him to win some longer rallies against a steady player. Otherwise keep attacking.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Any hope that PCB may take out the Canadian teenager today

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Beautiful overhead from the kid.
AP, I think PCB takes it today. But the kid can make it interesting for sure.

Agreed MB

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

First break to the kid. The BP he got by sending that backhand return deep to Bustas shoelaces was a beauty.

 

[DarthFed]

I figured PCB would take this match but the youngling continues to impress so far.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Back on serve. One thing about the kid that impressed me so far is that he has a very quick reset button. He does not dwell on stuff.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Wow...Busta is apparently playing his 4th qualifier in a row ! A record.

Incredible...but if it was going to happen it makes sense that it's this event.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Very tight and tentative game from both at 5-6 Busta serving...

You know who was the last super teenager who had the intake ability to move on to the next point, Darth's favorite Mallorcan

Moya?

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Good set from Shapo but lack of experience showed there when he had multiple set points.

 

[DarthFed]

PK is a good mover like Tiafoe and sure Roger will play bully ball ..

Neither are great movers though Tiafoe did have some good moments in that first round. But Tiafoe has a bigger game than Kohlslaw but is more erratic at this point.

 

[DarthFed]

Too bad, looks like PCB has taken control of this. Winner of this one makes the semis most likely with a decent chance for the final.
