I mean, the top 100 kids in the nation potentially could beat them. Outside of that, not really.

Djoko/Sinner is the day match. I guess they wanted to give Med and Zverev more time to rest or something. Looks like 10:30 eastern is showtime. I guess I'll watch a set or two.

Y’all think Djok will take it?

Trying to bet him on draft kings to win for -195 odds

Yeh saying high school is too broad

The top 10 in 14s could beat them
The top 40 in 16s could beat them
The top 100 in 18s could beat them


For those asking why Skupski and Koplhof split, barely any dubs teams stay together no matter how successful. After time things get stale etc and they argue over paying coaching and shite like that

If Ram and Salisbury didn’t win the us open they were toast as well and Neal would have been with Joe

That was kind of my thought as well.

Saying high school boys would destroy them just confused me a little.

Sinner. It's time. He does have some china doll tendencies, though, and could break down in a marathon.

This is the first match of the entire tournament I've watched. The odds were very screwy - is Djok suspected of being (or is he openly) injured?

He kind of grabbed a pec a few games ago. I'm not sure about injury, but as insane as he is in terms of endurance, he usually has weird episodes where he looks like he is going to die. I think he said in the Fritz match that it was really difficult until the sun went down.

Well, that's a breadstick. My double espresso is wearing off, so I'm out. I'll probably catch the end of the other match tomorrow.

I don’t think so. But he is 36 and Sinner is 22. Worth noting that the oldest man to win a major was 37. Novak will be 37 in May. I think he will win more but history says he will hit the wall and these young guns will pass him sooner rather than later.

Yeah that US Open match against Medvedev looked like he was trying to run uphill for the first 3.5 sets and then Med just broke mentally.

Novak has no fire. His box looks resigned to lose already. Strange.
