[Meles]

@ArcspacE is equipped for this match

No where to hide for Vallverdu

 

[EloQuent]

there's no thread for Rubles Dimi? There should be

 

[fundrazer]

Damn I think I jinxed him. Drops third set to Busta and now has to win 2 in a row.

 

[lud]

Waaaa.
What a lucky break for Busta.

 

[norcal]

Muller/Busta is a great matchup!

Allez Gilles!

 

[skip1969]

i can't believe that's the first break point Pablo has had in three sets. And it was a set point.

 

[Ace of Aces]

If Rublev had any type of serve he would be dangerous

A million UEs from both players already - 2 games in

Lol

 

[Ray Mercer]

It's tough to get behind rublev after his performance against Nadal at the US Open. One of the worst I've ever seen.

That was terrible

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

 

[heninfan99]

Rublev is a mean little grinch. He'll rob your salmon colored hype without apology.

 

[heninfan99]

That was terrible

yeah, don't stake your Rubles just yet but fast conditions help him

 

[ArcspacE]

Those kits are pathetic

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

 

[The Green Mile]

What's up with Grigor's slice backhand? Conditions?...

 

[ArcspacE]

Too much Christmas turkey

 

[Standaa]

Do you think Muller can come back from being 2:1 down? I hope he will, although he's behind in score, he seems like a better player, that break in third set was an unfortunate coincidence

 

[heninfan99]

Rublev must stay aggressive to have a chance even if he doulbes

there you go!

 

[ArcspacE]

GriGoat’s BH has been shocking today

 

[heninfan99]

What's up with Grigor's slice backhand? Conditions?...

rublev's power is such the ball is getting a little behind Dimi on the slice.

 

[heninfan99]

nice get from babyFed

 

[Standaa]

nice get from babyFed

Don't call him that for his own sake

 

[Meles]

Masterful game and break by Dimi. 5-3

 

[The Green Mile]

Could be, coupled with low confidence on that wing in general IMO... Some of them were just ridiculously bad. Up a break here though...

 

[3fees]

Rubles down a break

[ArcspacE]

Dimi takes the set - not very high quality so far by some decent shots nonetheless

Bailamos!

 

[Meles]

He's young. For his physique slow and steady progress on serve will do. Return game and rallying improvement very, very strong. Return game skyrocketing.

 

[ForumMember]

Rublev needs to do more to expose Dimitrov's false dawn.

 

[aditya123]

Rublesvs inside out forehand needs to hit the court!! Why is he sending the ball to the audience??

 

[skip1969]

Just ONE year without hot pink. I'm beggin you, Nike.

 

[Freddy Cat]

Dr Ivo soon to get surgery underway.

 

[LETitBE]

Rublesvs inside out forehand needs to hit the court!! Why is he sending the ball to the audience??

he's another Thiem

 

[JRAJ1988]

Karlovic, Seppi or Edmund? One of those 3 will reach the Australian Open Quarter Finals.

 

[TripleATeam]

Where they will likely get slaughtered by Dimi/Kyrgios...

 

[aditya123]

No not again

Rublev goose is cooked

Baby Fraud.

Good thing they're not in his quarter.

 

[TripleATeam]

Good thing they're not in his quarter.

Oh, s***, you're right, that's Djoko-Zverev-Thiem.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Carreno Busta knocks out Muller.

 

[skip1969]

Pablo through in four tough sets. There's just something about that guy . . .

 

[aditya123]

Busta won

 

[Freddy Cat]

Clean game to start off Ivo's 3rd round affair vs Seppi!

 

[lud]

What a lucky ******* Busta is.
Muller, like many time before was so unlucky.

 

[abmk]

terrible game from Muller to lose. Could've easily held.
