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

[DarthFed]

Is Thiem dating/tapping Kiki Mladenovic? He's gone up in my estimation if so.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Thiem is swinging nicely. I don't know what's up with Delpo but Domi is playing solid tennis .

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Before this match began, I thought this may be an interesting and competitive match. I should hit myself in the head. This USO is a total disaster. It looks like JMDP is not feeling well (we don't know the details) due to some issue other than the usual wrist problem. It looks like he is going through the motions to lose this match.

Delpo is super sick, apparently he is playing with bad cold and high fever and I have read some courtside people say he looks green

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Second wind from Delpo? Let's see if it is sustainable though. He does look a bit green.

 

[DarthFed]

Pretty surprising to see him start this set so well but I'm thinking Thiem turns it around. DP seems pretty sick.

 

[DarthFed]

This court is slow enough that Thiem could be a serious threat to Fed if that's the QF.

Yep, he can grind fed out in long rallies on slow court such as this. RF has to play ultra aggressive and refuse to be placed in grinder mode.

 

[DarthFed]

Still if Fed plays well he would trounce Thiem. But a mediocre performance could be punished by Thiem more than DP.

And after us Fed tribe forcefully removes the schmuck who runs Wimbledon we will come for the clown in New York.

Nah, they're all a little more reasonable than me and I don't think any of them except maybe Front hates your savior as much as I do.

Front is also jealous of Rafa's biceps.. He doesn't like all the attention Rafa draws from the chicks(& dudes)..

I have been checking to see if my Amazon account to see if my Roger Federer voodoo doll was delivered today.

Seriously, I just tuned in the USO, JMDP is hitting his two handed backhand again..

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Really soft game from Thiem serving for it...

The women and some dudes were all about those mysterious biceps he grew at age 18, but they've disappeared a bit over the years, no? You are part of the other section of the Rafa fan club: the Sampras fans latching onto the best hope of stopping the Night King (Federer). And then there are just a few misguided souls like Shoelace who actually like the rat for his game.

 

[DarthFed]

I think Thiem takes it here before the TB.

 

[DarthFed]

Incredibly clutch stuff from DP.

 

[DarthFed]

Wheels falling off for Thiem. Should've been off the court many times by now.

 

[DarthFed]

Weak play from Fed so far but still on serve.

 

[crystalfire]

nice rally by fed

LOL AP. In your dreams. I'm only 5'9" and almost 12 years older than Nads but in 100 times better shape. He has a flat chest like a 12 year old school boy and my arms are proportional unlike his. I dropped from 85kg (Nads apparent weight) to just 71kg to get shredded and look way bigger than him considering I dropped from his weight while being 4 inches smaller. Sorry to disappoint you. Nads hasn't looked good since around 2008 now and even then he just had good shoulders and 1 good bicep. Still had a crap chest.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

5 points in a row for Roger to break. He looked good at both defense and offense in that game.
