Medvedev has ZERO incentive to do well. He CANNOT qualify for the SF even if he wins.

Expecting a tame straight set win for Zverev.

 

[tudwell]

Hoping one of my new all-time favorites in Zverev can pull through here. Zero other considerations, just want to see a likeable, humble, exciting tennis player do well.

 

[Mike Sams]

The whole format of this tournament is so weird.
Nadal played his butt off in his last 2 matches and won and yet he could still be eliminated! Lol

Doesn't Medvedev get paid significantly more for winning as opposed to losing?

Perhaps he doesn't want to go on a 4 match losing streak, right after his insane run post Wimbledon ..

I feel the same way. He's a great guy. I also like Medvedev because he is very honest/real and had nerves of steel at the US Open. This match is more about getting Nadal eliminated for me

i hope so, i need him to win for the Nadal! and he is young, he needs money!!!!

I don't think difference is that stark. Plus Medvedev has won like 7 tournaments and TONS of cash.
The amount of money he would get here is PEANUTS compared to what he made by winning Cincy, Shanghai and runner up UsOpen.

Did peanuts go up in value or something?

 

[Meles]

@Meles

Zedrot of course will be chomping at the bit to come through and serve Thiem off the court like he did Nadal.

The Mad Lad has a bad record versus Zverev so I'm not sure if he'll want water Zedrot's ego and get his confidence growing. Or he may just tank to spite Nadal. All in the Mad Lad's hands right now.

Had no idea PEANUTS were so expensive.

Good catch. Thank you, and fixed it.

 

[Jokervich]

Why are odds so high on Zverev when Medvedev has no incentive to win?

 

[StrongRule]

Never thought Nadal's fate is going to depend on a bear.

 

[Deleted member 766172]

Haha just giving you a hard time. We all know what you meant.

$250k for the winner isn't it? Med will fight for it.

 

[Daniel Andrade]

250 k for one match!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????

 

[racquetreligion]

Med should win but shouldnt to get back at his supposed friend Nadal.
Nadal pretends to be friends with him yet Daniil keeps telling the umpire
during their matches Nads time wasting goes over the time limit.
Nads also prevents him from serving with the usual cheating hand or
racquet up even on his last serve of the match yet Ump does nothing.

 

[helixx]

i hope so, i need him to win for the Nadal! and he is young, he needs money!!!!

even mug berrettini managed to win a match here. i hope he doesnt wanna leave wtf as a worst player with 0 wins

 

[acintya]

hope so!!

"MALI" MEDO NEEDS TO WIN!

 

[Ajosin]

250 k for one match!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????

They also get something if they lose, so we need to do a subtraction to understand the $$$ motivation I believe.

 

[Ajosin]

Ok, I think it's $215K for a win and $116K just for showing up.

So the $ motivation to win is $99K. I could be wrong thought, not sure about this.

 

[Tennis sensation]

If Medvedev wins today's match then Thiem has to win the tournament to get the 4th seed at AO. If Medvedev loses today and Thiem wins his semi finals then Thiem replaces Medvedev at Number 4 in the world.

 

[Pheasant]

I am pulling for Medvedev here, even though I am a Federer fan. I want Nadal in the semis. If Nadal beats Fed, then I will pull for Nadal to take the title. Nadal is a class act and he deserves one of these titles.

With that being said, I hope that Federer goes all of the way.

 

[Meles]

Mad Lad will return favor today and put some more Russian blood in for the weekend.

 

[RF_fan]

$250k for the winner isn't it? Med will fight for it.

Also 200 ATP points

 

[van_Loederen]

i doubt that medev has the form to win today. incentive won't matter.

hopefully i won't have to endure so many giraffe-stork encounters in the furure. i'm an esthete after all.

 

[tennisjedi]

I want Mad Lad to win, but losing from being up 5-1 in the third set against Nadal has demoralized him.

Zed in 2.

 

[MasturB]

What are the ramifications for advancement?

If Zed wins does he advance? Ralph is also 2-1. Stefanos has already advanced.

Zverev through because of the h2h

yeah he will advance. vafa needs mad to win

 

[BeatlesFan]

Go, Mad Lad!!! Pulling for you all the way!

I see it your way. I want Roger to play Rafa in the semis. If Rafa beats Fed, I will root for Nadal against whoever he would face in the final.

 

[Third Serve]

Let's get Nadal in that semifinal, Mad Lad!

 

[BeatlesFan]

Liking Med's kit.

 

[helixx]

VAMOS

 

[StrongRule]

Medvedev missing easy shots from the beginning. Doesn't look like he is going to try hard today.

You've been wrong all week

 

[DonDiego]

Please enlighten me: why isn't Nadal garanteed a spot in the semis since he beat Tsitsipas today? I mean, if Zverev wins there will be three players with 2-1 record. And in head-to-head, Zverev has beaten Nadal, Nadal has beaten Tsitsipas and Tsitsipas has beaten Zverev... Who gets to be winner and runner-up? Confusing...

EDIT: ok I think I get it, when two are tied it's the hth record, but when three are tied it's the % of set won...
