What a beautiful message. Mischa must know exactly what his bro is going through now. Even if he never scaled the heights that Sascha is now, every pro athlete knows what it's like to bear that cross of disappointment, self-doubt, bitterness, etc...that comes with a loss as painful as this.

I'm not crying, you are!

Well said.

I felt Mischa likely contributed to Sasha's outstanding and aggressive net play last night. Great to have the support off the court from an older brother, but even better to have it on the court also.

Sasha can quickly mature into a force to content with adding a few new tools to the box and solving the serve thing.

Very nice message there from bro to bro.

Am I warming up to Zedrot??? :oops:

It's easy to like the older bro and not like the younger one.

I'm actually amazed that Alex is so cocky when his brother Mike is incredibly humble and down to earth. You'd think some of that would rub off but I guess not.

I must be old school, but why didn't Mischa just call Sascha and tell him all this? Why post it on social media? Both of their parents tested positive for COVID, it seems they should be tending to that issue instead of posting endlessly on their Instagram/Twitter.

Seriously, I can only see Alex Z going from strength to strength from here. He's pretty much fully mature in terms of all the shots and it's a matter of learning how to put them together to win. He's got big, big serve, big forehand and backhand, and he's fit and fast. His net game also has improved a lot, and he can be unstoppable when he is in the mood. I see him as an improved version of Delpo, because he is faster and more mobile. So many people still don't believe in him, but it's impossible to ignore his huge potential at winning slams and becoming no.1. People talk about Kyrgios' talent, but Sascha's talent is almost equal to his in slightly different ways.

How do you know he didn’t?

If I remember correctly, both parents already tested negative. They're probably better in health already. And one Instagram post doesn't take that much time to make, just a few seconds, yet it means a lot to the one receiving it. Especially after a public emotional meltdown like the one Z had.
