2019 Madrid Open QF - (1.) Novak Djokovic vs. (9.) Marin Cilic

Thiem for Djokovic. The Earth's mightiest needs to become battle hardened, and not take part in some circus sideshow.

Where's the Nole via Walkover option?

Tough Break for Cilic - Food poisoning --Djokovic to the semi finals to play Federer or Thiem

Cheers

I guess I missed the moment when Thiem beat Federer. Also, if Zverev finds his form (and looks like he starts to find it) then he might be just as dangerous as Thiem. Should I remind about last year's clay season? He didn't just beat in form Thiem in Madrid 2018, he destroyed him.

How's that goin for ya

Goin just like I said

Thiem-Djokovic is 50/50
Nadal-Tsitsipas is LMAO for Nadal

Unbelievable. Djoke is the luckiest SOB on the tour with all the walkovers and retirements he gets. Since 2011 he's had more than Fed and Nadal combined.

Number of matches (ATP level) won by RET/WO since 2011:
- ND: 24 (14 RET, 10 WO) [9/2 in GS, 4/6 in M1000+WTF]
- RN: 12 ( 8 RET, 4 WO) [5/0 in GS, 2/3 in M1000+WTF]
- RF: 11 ( 5 RET, 6 WO) [2/2 in GS, 2/2 in M1000+WTF]

Lol, this is not 50-50. Thiem is a much better player than Tsitsipas, but come on-Djokovic is the clear favorite of the semifinal.

Even odds according to bookies and I agree with them, it's anyone's match. Personally I'm leaning towards Thiem but anything can happen.

If Djokovic is the clear favorite then the odds on him are a steal, go make easy money.

I'm never making bets anyway. But yes, if Thiem had so many problems with beating 38 years old Federer who didn't play on clay for 3 years then I can't be very optimistic about his chances against the world number 1 who won the last 3 slams.
