Rublev playing with 1 arm? Bagel in 4th set?

There is probably no one left on the top side of the draw that can take a set off of Djokovic here. Maybe not on the bottom either...

I'd be super pissed if I took that +800 bet for him not to lose a set and he wins 21 sets in a row and it still doesn't cash.

Lol forgot about that. He’ll drop another one in the semi or final I think.

Will be interesting to see how Medvedev competes in the final against Djokovic if they both make it there.

Medvedev has had times in his career in big spots where he has risen to the occasion, and also times where he's looked like a mental midget.

Gauff/Kerber is probably the first women's match of the tournament that I don't mind watching over the men. 5 straight breaks of service to open the match

FAA just broke back against Zverev to get it on serve again in the 1st.

Love watching Coco’s game. Just a monster serve.

Kerber killing her with the finesse though. D first experienced game a bad matchup for someone as young as Gauff.

Zverev seems to have fixed whatever issues he had with the 2nd serve in the past.

Scratch that

Zverev

8 double faults in the 1st set. PATHETIC.

Zverev up to 12 doubles so far as it's now late in the 2nd set.

Coco should have gotten a break a couple of games ago. Kerber picked her apart with some great passing shots.

Kinda forced to play that too with one of the Vegas books having him at +290.

Not sure if it will be still be windy by then, but we might get a Shankerer appearance.

Alex threw in an 84 mph second serve meatball at 4-5 in the breaker and Felix blinked, but battles back and wins it after going down 5-6.

Kerber loves breaking down power players it would appear. Serena twice. And worked Gauff over hard with her return game leading to frustration, bad decision making, and unforced errors.

Also. Sweet Jesus the legs on Kerber. Not only the thickness, but her flexibility in dropping down was insane.

Yeah, she is already short and then gets super low on some of those passing shots to the point she is just off the ground.

Hurka derka takes the second set from Medvedev.
