US Open [Men], 2022 - Grand Slam

Yep, well if smoking is not allowed I might change my mind, I could always wear a mask lol! I am used to wearing a full face mask at work

You will find here in America that in certain areas of the country people wear masks all over the place and in other areas in America no one wears them. It also shows in many of those places that don't wear them there is a higher amount of Covid cases around, but here people just seem to go with it. The whole thing doesn't make much sense to me at all.

Ruud/Paul are at 5-5 in the 4th set — 3 hours, 46 minutes. Wow!

 

[tented]

Paul breaks to grab the 4th set 7-5. We’re going 5.

Way to go Tommy Paul.Taking it to the 5th set.

Way to go Tommy Paul.Taking it to the 5th set.

He’s 2-2 in five set matches. The big question is how much he can endure, after already playing nearly 4 hours.

This match is now 4 hours and his previous match with Korda went 5 sets and went a very long time. He has to be very tired.

Casper needs to develop some killer instinct and finish these points and matches earlier. He seems content to rally and hope for the best.

 

[Hailz]

Casper is now serving for the match and a 5th set bagel.

Moutet beats Cachin in 4 sets.

 

[tented]

Ruud up 5-0 in the 5th. I think we have our answer concerning Paul’s endurance to go 5 today.

 

[tented]

PCB won the first set 6-1 against de Minaur. They’re on serve with the Aussie serving at 1-2 in the second.

Ruud closes it out with a bagel in the 5th.

Casper is now serving for the match and a 5th set bagel.

Moutet beats Cachin in 4 sets.

If anyone wondered if this USO was a bit wide open, I give you Moutet and Cachin. Moutet is a lucky loser, btw.

It really seemed like Tommy Paul just was worn out in the 5th set.

Moutet going into the 2nd week. I don't even know who he is.

Ruud is, for now, mainly successful on clay, I think, so he loves the long points. I'm not sure what he strengths/weapons really are, but endurance must be one of them.

Moutet going into the 2nd week. I don't even know who he is.

Young French guy. He has featured enough that I know his name, though not his game. But between him and Cachin, who I don't know at all, I'd have picked him. (Sorry, not very helpful.)

I actually picked him to win the match, but that was just a flip of a coin.

He has a nice forehand and decent serve. He needs to end these points quicker.

That is his clay court skills coming out, hoping the opponent makes a UFE
He has a good first serve and Fhand, he should try to play more first strike tennis on a HC

PCB in total control of his match against Aussie De Minaur or as Front likes to call him Manure
2 sets to love both bread sticks as well.
