September 12, 20205 yr Osaka getting her ass kicked. Might be nerves but seems like that should be less of a factor with no crowds.
September 12, 20205 yr Author She’s about to have 3 Slams at 22, that’s pretty impressive in today’s tennis landscape.

September 12, 20205 yr It’s more Osaka turning it up and pressing Vika into mistakes than “falling apart”.Missing three breakpoint chances at love forty in the third was falling apart. Especially that last point on the second serve.
September 13, 20205 yr Osaka turned up the quality in the third set. She was off in the first and Vika was super aggressive. It was a fun match and could have gone either way easily. I think Thiem blows Zverev off the court unless his serve is consistent at 125 plus and well located. Thiem looks so brutal hitting the ball but his shots are fantastic. I think it’s a four set Thiem win.
September 13, 20205 yr If I could be either of these guys, I would put up with potential hotel issues due to my height and be Zverev. I like the serve & volley game and that TikTok tweet of Sverev hanging with just amazing groupies at some bar has me really jealous. And it would be cool to have a 138 mph first serve.
September 13, 20205 yr Zverev looking like a future Wimbledon winner. He still has work to do on his volley decisions. He just had a 131 mph SECOND serve for a winner. JFC!! 👀
September 13, 20205 yr Thiem comes back to win in 5. I like the Z’s style of play and that he’s willing to come to net at times. Banging away at the baseline is killing the sport.
September 13, 20205 yr There should be a line about 3 or 4 feet behind the baseline that you can’t stand behind in a serve return.
September 14, 20205 yr Thiem hits the net tape and the ball almost hits the baseline. That last game had some pace on the ball.

September 14, 20205 yr Jesus, two doublefaults in one tiebreaker Edited September 14, 20205 yr by Bullneck
September 14, 20205 yr Thiem blasted two balls long with match point. He's trying to win it. Sometimes it's better to let the other guy lose it.
