Wow, that's crazy! I still remember the 21 or 22' game on Coria's serve at the end of the 3rd set in the Nadal vs Coria Rome 2005 final when Rafa was leading 5-3 (he won the break). It was exhausting to watch. Will watch this epic game later. Vamos RBA. ;)
This one not so epic; greulling for all involved.:confused:

Hard to see Sock, big Sam or Isner getting past the next round

Agree. Of those three matches, I think the best chance is Querrey against Thiem.

When Querrey plays solid (keeping the ball between the lines) tennis and serves well, he beats Top-10 players. He's proved it over and over gain.

But against Struff, he looked a little shaky. Even though he straight-setted him. Lots of shanks and misses on game points and set points.

Thiem is playing too well in the last month to make those kind of mistakes.

Depends each one of them can play lights out,so have to wait and see. The dark horse-Stanimal won today, he may be able to diesel his way to the finals in the upper half of the draw. :eek::D

Marin Cilic is a pretty good tennis player. Look out come Wimbledon.

Anyone know what his go-to celebratory yell is? Sounds like 'allez' to me, but perhaps it's something Croatian like 'hajde'.

There's 2. One is Idemo which pronounce like eye-e-mo. Cilic's saying it pretty close to sound like vamos.
2nd one is Talle (That sound like Allez) which means come on, sometimes he said it short like "Ta ta ta" repeatedly.

Thanks! Talle makes sense. Would be curious if he was constantly yelling in French:p

He's a clay stats king this year which bodes well for the grass. It was no mean feat by Zverev beating him in Madrid.

I really thought Goffin was going to take him to 3. Seems like Goffin is more of just the gatekeeper for the lower seeds than a threat to win in these things.
