Feeling Rune +188 tonight.

Already on it. He should be able force the issue and finish points at net. And if it’s still windy I don’t like Med’s flat groundstrokes.

This hurt, I lost $500, but I've gotten a good chunk back on some other things.

Small play on Sakk of shite tonight. I think she likes these slow courts.

Small play on Carlitos tomorrow.

Very interested to see what a Coco/Iga line would be.

Get out of my head with those bets.

Wonder what happened to that Cali guy in these threads who used to attend IW every year. Think he has a daughter who plays or something.

ETA: Just remembered... littlebilly

Man this is some big dick tennis.

ETA: And there's the rain after 3 games

ETA2: I don't know what's gonna have to happen to get Sinner out of this zone. Hopefully he loses motivation at some point. That style is nearly unbeatable but no fun to watch really. He just stands on the baseline and pummels every shot and never misses. There's not really a counter for it because he can pick up low balls too and chase down drop shots. The crazy part is he could still get better.

Funny you say that, I was thinking the other day that I don't really enjoy watching Sinner.

I missed the first set, but it looks like it was one way traffic. Carlos with an early break in the second.

Holy ---- the point I just watched.

It really wasn't actually. Alcaraz came out cold after the rain delay and got broken for 3-1. Then he had a break chance and another point he kinda blew at deuce. Then it just got away quickly.

This 2nd set is just phenomenal tennis.

Sinner picked up a knee injury at some point and started making un-Sinner-like errors.

ETA: Carlitos just busted out the Les clap after spanking that arse.

Didn't realize garbage Kozlov had a 6'1" brother who played at LSU and transferred to Tennessee.

I know it looked like the knee was bothering him. But I'm curious how well his wrist holds up hitting that hard with his frame.

Man I was watching and Carlito was down 5-4. Turn back and he was finishing off Medvedev. What a player when he's on.

Sabalenka's boyfriend of three years jumped from his hotel balcony last night in Miami and killed himself. She was out practicing today and still plans on playing the tournament.

Tragic news

Miami Draw

Kinda like Medvedev here. Would prefer if he hadn’t just played a final but many guys have won the double before.
