Shanghai Masters 2019 - Semi Final - Tsitsipas (6) vs Medvedev (3)

Zardoz7/12 · Oct 11, 2019

I don't see any match threads so I thought I'd have a crack, I like this match up, it has some history behind it also. Medvedev leads the head to head 4-0, they last played in Monte Carlo with Daniil winning in 3 sets. I think Tsitsipas finally could break his duck but Medvedev is in amazing form at this moment in time. So what do you think? Both players could meet on the grandest stage of them all, the Nitto ATP Finals in London.

Medvedev in 2.

I Am Finnish · Oct 11, 2019

Tsitsipas will win this time

Nobody beats him 5 times in a row

D.Nalby12 · Oct 11, 2019

Zoning Tsitsipas Vs Super Consistent Medvedev. Should be interesting.

H2H could be misleading in this case. I think this has potential to be next great rivalry.

Ofc Medo in 2.
We all know how bad Tsit is ag. Medvedev.

Splitting my nerves, licking my lips -
It's my countryman Med vs. 'my man' Tsits...

He is not bad just had a mental block after Miami. Now that Medvedev has become a powerhouse name and higher in the rankings, could help Tsitsipas to relax and play his game

Sixth consecutive finals? I think so.

Mad Lad in 2. Tsits may own Djoko and possibly Fed, but he's Meddy's beatch 100%.

Medvedev seems to own this emerging rivalry. I want to see a 3 setter, but Medvedev is a clear favorite.

James P · Oct 11, 2019

Interestingly enough, Medvedev has never beaten Tsitsipas without dropping a set. Three setter very likely.

Mainad · Oct 11, 2019

5th meeting and 2nd this year for 'You Better Shut Your Phuck Up' vs "Bullsheet Russian". Bullsheet has won them all although each one has gone the distance.

Yugram · Oct 11, 2019

I think at this point Tsitsipas may be the one who’s more motivated and also the one who’s playing better tennis in general. Have him in 3 sets.

James P · Oct 11, 2019

I don't doubt that Tsitsipas could take this, but playing better tennis than the guy that's been in 5 consecutive finals??

Things seem pointed to a Zedvedev final, but Tsitsipas could very well spoil the party

Probably as interesting as the Serena Williams vs. Maria Sharapova "rivalry".

Latetothegame · Oct 11, 2019

Probably 60/40 in Med's favor, they have always had close matches,
Tsitsipas was the big "next gen" at the beginning of the year, med was there but less prominent,he has come into his own in the HC season, whilst Tsitsipas went into a slump, who knows, would be surprised if it was a beat down on either Side whoever wins

Tshooter · Oct 11, 2019

You can’t simply skip steps.

(1) learn to tie your shoelaces
(2) beat BS Russian

MugOpponent · Oct 11, 2019

Can't wait to see the Mad Lad send Tsitsipas back to instagram in a philosophical mood.

The Green Mile · Oct 11, 2019

I keep on predicting Stefanos to get his first win over Medvedev, one of these days I'll be right, dammit!

Stefanos finally got his first win over FAA earlier in the week, another first tonight

guitarra · Oct 12, 2019

Come on, Stef! Perfect opportunity to solve the bear puzzle!

Otacon · Oct 12, 2019

Popcorn match.

he finally beat Felix for the first time so this time he might also beat Medvedev.

guitarra · Oct 12, 2019

In all of their previous matches Stefanos won a set so despite the lopsided H2H it wasn’t all one way traffic.

guitarra · Oct 12, 2019

I like how Stef attacks the net from the very start of this match.

Otacon · Oct 12, 2019

I love the sound of the F1 car after every ace.

Rogfan · Oct 12, 2019

I don’t know why Medvedev has to return from so behind. Tsitsi is doing well exploiting that by s&v a lot

lol I found it annoying the first time I heard it but soon I was expecting that sound, so yes it's great to remind the players more aces to come!

guitarra · Oct 12, 2019

Very serve-dominant match so far.

guitarra · Oct 12, 2019

Stef needs to shorten the rallies. There's no sense to go into those long exchanges with the Russian.

aditya123 · Oct 12, 2019

The loser of this will have to bear a lotttttttt !!!! A win here could determine the future of tennis..

They are playing lights-out tennis at the moment. Great quality so far.

Huge hold from 0-40 down by Medvedev.

Yeah, strong mentality from the Russian. Stef never had a chance in those 3 break points.
