Disgust

 

[stringertom]

Diamond Age becomes cubic zirconium age in 95 minutes. Melesian statistics fly out the window.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Lajovic > Djokovic confirmed

 

[mike danny]

So a tournament that had Thiem, Zverev, Medvedev has resulted in 29 year old Lajovic in the final.

 

[True Fanerer]

Still a Serbian sacrifice for the final either way.

 

[True Fanerer]

I'm finally going to watch Rafa play since its Fognini.

 

[tudwell]

From 5-1 up, goes 1-12 in games to lose in straights. Strange, to say the least.

 

[underground]

Can someone tell me what happened?? Medvedev injured? How does someone of his caliber lose that badly from 5-1 up?

 

[vive le beau jeu !]

this gotta be a joke...

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Lajovic in a master final

 

[Bukmeikara]

Lajovic + Krajinovic >> Tipsarevic + Troicki

 

[underground]

Such a strong era though. Ridiculous depth of the field.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Lajovic + Krajinovic >> Tipsarevic + Troicki

Lajovic > Djokovic

 

[Mainad]

Lajovic comes from behind to destroy the destroyer of Djokovic and gain revenge for his fellow Serb.

So there will indeed be a Serb in the final on Sunday as we all expected. Just not the Serb we all expected.

 

[NBP]

A Fognini-Lajovic Masters 1000 final is what this pathetic era deserves

 

[Bukmeikara]

A Fognini-Lajovic Masters 1000 final is what this pathetic era deserves

Its would be awesome for two non top 10 guys to play a big final for probably their best career moment

 

[tudwell]

Lajovic in a master final

That’s just the evolution of the game.

 

[IowaGuy]

So a tournament that had Thiem, Zverev, Medvedev has resulted in 29 year old Lajovic in the final.

Plus Tsit, Coric, Khach, etc...

 

[Luka888]

C'mon guys give some credit to Lajovic. He played great. His one hand BH is a thing of beauty. I didn't think he can pull it off but he did it. Well done. Some people wanted the other Serb in the final but we still got the Serb ... it's just a different one, sorry . Lajovic also has a great personality. No drama.

Russian mafia intervention?

Nadal will agree.

 

[Luka888]

Nadal will agree.

What about Fog ?

 

[acintya]

nadal looking bad - will win RG

 

[Sudacafan]

A Fognini-Lajovic Masters 1000 final is what this pathetic era deserves

That final would be even more interesting to watch than Nadal - Lajovic.
Think it over and agree with me.

 

[acintya]

if the Fog wants to do some damage - he needs to break now or this set will be over soon

 

[Sudacafan]

Unknown Serbians reaching M1000 finals: Krajinovic and Lajovic.

 

[Sudacafan]

Is it 15+ minutes and the first game hasn’t ended yet?

 

[acintya]

didnt follow Thiem in this tournament? What the **** happened? This new age guys are a joke.
who will replace the big three? Well. NO ONE i guess.

 

[DJ-]

Dusan played some good tennis

 

[helterskelter]

So a tournament that had Thiem, Zverev, Medvedev has resulted in 29 year old Lajovic in the final.

28-year-old Lajovic, but yeah.

 

[helterskelter]

That final would be even more interesting to watch than Nadal - Lajovic.
Think it over and agree with me.

Of course it would be. But Nadal v Fognini would be preferable still. Although only if Fognini pulled the upset.

 

[IowaGuy]

Dusan played some good tennis

It seems like Dusan's BH slices really bothered Meddy. Along with the wind

Meddy seemed to abandon his high-percentage grinding style and was going for bigger shots than he usually does?

Yeah noticed that too, the basics like angled slices and low balls really annoyed him, Lajovic also struggled with the wind in the first set but adjusted better than Med

 

[Mainad]

Am I imagining it or did Monte Carlo used to have night matches? I'm sure I can recall Murray playing Davydenko at night here back in 2009!

 

[WhiskeyEE]

Mickey Carlo. All I gotta say after seeing Lajovic in the final.

 

[acintya]

@Atennisone

next time be sure you include F.F in the poll.
Instead of ****in Cecchinato?
Or Kei Retirishori?
OR Gael Canreachnextrounddueinjuryfils?

 

[Subway Tennis]

She's been in Fog's box for every match I think. You know they're married, right?

Yes I know they are married and have a family. Was just wanting to know how or where she was shown in case it wasn't just in the crowd.

 

[TopspintheTerrible]

This tournament has been pretty disappointing overall. A few good matches, not much else.

Also, any reason why clay tournaments don’t have a night session?

King of clay likes the bounce when it is hot, no?

 

[joekapa]

Djokovic,Federer,Nadal might have all the titles, glory, money.

But even when they beat the Fog, they feel like they have lost.

3 cheers for the coolest man in tennis, which ranks him probably as one of the coolest on this earth.

Ladies and gentleman, please, make way for the Fog.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Impressive Lajovic has not lost a set yet

 

[stringertom]

A Fognini-Lajovic Masters 1000 final is what this pathetic era deserves

A little variety is nice...we will have an 11th non-Big 4 champion in 24 M1K’s beginning with Cilic’s title at TRS’16. Only Zedraffe has won multiple titles (3) in that group.

Ok, I was trying to remember this from memory, and Sock was the only one I kind of forgot.

Cilic (1)
Del Potro (1)
Thiem (1)
Zverev (3)
Isner (1)
Dimitrov (1)
Fognini/Lajovic (1)
Khachanov (1)
Sock (1)

If you had to pick one more player to add to this list, who it would be? I think Anderson maybe, but he's yet to reach a M1000 final.

 

[BGod]

Worst Masters Final in 20 years?

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Worst Masters Final in 20 years?

Depends on how it plays out?

 

[stringertom]

Del Potro (1)
Thiem (1)
Zverev (3)

Khachanov (1)
Sock (1)

Kyrgios...he lost TRS’17 final to Dimitrough and he won Acapulco this year with a tough overall draw similar to M1K level, beating three top 10 players.

Raonic maybe?

 

[NaomiKonjuhPotapova]

No seperate thread for Mad Lad and LaNotDjokovic?
We sit here watching these players murder each other for the prize of getting murdered by RAFA in the finals and we don't even make a seperate thread for them?!
Disgust.

Lol LanotDjokovic.
