Yawn. I'm so tired of Djoke whining about crowd support. How long has he been on tour? As if this is a new occurrence. News flash! How about just win the matches if for no other reason than to spite the crowd?

Novak to me has always had a 'chip on his shoulder' he wants to be liked by everyone,in life,you cannot be liked by everyone,accept it and move on

@don_fabio at the top of the draw challenge, and @AnonymousFan not far behind. (Note: I am nowhere to be seen.)

I must say Aussie Alex form so far this year has been 'hit and miss' he wins the 3rd set against Fritz 61

But Fritz gets the job done. I agree that De Minaur has definitely had a dip in form.

Well at least the 'Hitler Moustache' is gone

Hey, Bokun, I also say welcome to the forum!

A little more explanation: Cough Drop was the invention of a clever poster here. After Cilic insisted that his positive drug test, some years back, came from an energy drink his mother bought him at a pharmacy, our friend dubbed him "Cough Drop," rather hilariously, and that is forever now his nickname around here.

thx you

I have been following this forum for some time, but I missed this one.

Should we begin a poll to predict how many bathroom breaks Tsitsipas will take each match?

The way things are going he might claim at some point that he has prostate issues just to get excuse for a nice little chat with his dad.

@Moxie There is a thin line between top and the bottom in draw challenges. Brooksby and Nakashima proved to be worth the risk so far. I can't watch, but people say Cressy defeated PCB in old style with serve and volleys, so kudos to him for pulling that kind of stuff in 2021.

Bit harsh I know but I refer to him as Alex De Manure

A friend of mine was like you like tennis, he was like that guy Brooksby, does he usually play with a boner. I was like what are you talking about? He was like I’m pretty sure he was playing with a boner. I was like oh I don’t know. I didn’t see the match. I mean he was winning, so maybe he was extra excited.

He said it was near the end of the third set.

No wonder why he lost it, all the blood went in the wrong place
