Where was this lad yesterday? 
Not much of a Mad Lad today, but he doesn't have to be.

Medvedev was playing 50 shot rallies at Queens vs Simon.

Goffin has been robbed of some of his best years by two freak injuries.

I think he's choosing to grind with Goffin in this heat feeling like he'll prevail in the end.

He's the first to pull the trigger or draw his man forward with subpar drop shots, drawing out his margins of play. He's looking very dispirited at the start of the 2nd.

Yes but he wasn't winning a single slam in 2017 or 2018 even if he was 100%Goffin has been robbed of some of his best years by two freak injuries.

I wonder what Tsitsipas thinks about the emergence of the Bullsheet Russian while he has been fairly disappointing.

I'm sorry ma man, but this is the best (or the worst) 90's kids have to offer.
I'd volunteer to put myself up there, be terrible but at least I look like I know how to play tennis (even if I'm terrible) and my pressers would be funny.

Player's own fans can be so distracting to him, like these bozos who keep yelling "Daveeed". Yeah, that's gonna help him when he's concentrating to serve.

All these slices really isn't Goffin's game, it's doing nothing to Medvedev either...

Great point I've never seen him deliberately slice. It is a good play against Medvedev on lower bouncing courts.

What kind of grip does Medvedev have, guys?

What must Zverev think?
He lost his first match here, which last year, he beat Medvedev easily in the round of 16.

What must Zverev think?
Yeah, Tsitsipas has been solid, if unspectacular, this year, at least. Zverev has downright sucked.

What if the real Bullsheet Russian was the Zverevs we met along the way?

That's 3 of 12 1st serves in for Daniil this 2nd set, still three love holds, oops.

I didn't have huge expectations, but I'm still very disappointed in Goffin's performance today. He's an above-average career journeyman who finally got a window of opportunity in the Big 4 era and he's throwing it away. He should be pouncing.

What is Medvedev's seed going to be for the US Open? 5th?

Looks like Medvedev will final win a title! Third time maybe the charm, success?

Let's see if Medvedev can hold his serve two more times...

He's got no serve and Meddy does; facts of life.

Did he lose a point on serve yet in the 2nd set? Wow

This match hasn't really delivered tbh... Mainly thanks to Goffin
MeatTornado

But that's not why he's losing. He's been uncharacteristically sloppy off the ground today and hitting too many bail-out shots.
James P
G.O.A.T.
Infographic just said he's only lost 10 points in the entire match on serve.

Semi western forehand I think.

This match hasn't been a blow out. 7-6, 5-4 so far. It's been a solid match in hot weather.
