2019 Miami - ATP Masters 1000 - General Discussion

[EloQuent]

SFs

Isner (33) v Faa (18) - 15 year age difference.
Fedr (37) v Shapo (19) - 18 year age difference.

Will the final be a 19 year (to the day!) age difference?

 

[Mainad]

Second Masters 1000 in a row with 2 Canadians in the semi-finals (Raonic and Andreescu in Indian Wells, Auger-Aliassime and Shapovalov in Miami)!

When was the last time THAT happened??

 

[Meles]

Diamond Age has become Cubic Zirconium Age once again, @Meles ! Nice avatar!

 

[duaneeo]

Will the final be a 19 year (to the day!) age difference?

Or, will the final be a 19 year age average?

I just want to say that I'm so proud of "my babies". All grown up now.

But it's so sad when they leave the nest. Sniffle, sniffle.

 

[Meles]

2 next gen against each orher

Ruud v aliassime


@Meles

Amazed Ruud took a set, but then Felix schooled him. Ruud still too low to play a lot of the bigger events, but does have direct entry to Houston.

 

[Meles]

his serve is powderpuff and a big liability. To some extent rolls the first serve, which explains the mad high percentage.

Excellent pusher though. Like a caricature of Murray in a sense. Needs to make more weird noises while chasing balls tho.

Its hard to find a tennis prospect who is to scrawny for the game, at least Rublev is tall.

 

[stringertom]

Don’t mix Félix or Shapo into the Thiemraffe Cubic Zirconium bag of fake gems!

 

[BGod]

So many Canadian gif. So little space.

Let the syrup run.

Canadian Final or will one the old players ruin the party

 

[Red Rick]

ban isner?

When in doubt, ban Isner.

It should be in the frigging constitution.

If these two win today, it would be so epic. Really excited about this duo.

 

[junior74]

I'd like to give a round of applause for all the posters who likes to follow tennis, even if their favourite is not competing.

Stunning performance by the two young Canadians! Felix into a Masters final would be - well - epic

 

[AndyM]

I really hope shops can take down the almighty

 

[Master_Funk]

I have a feeling in my bones that it will be a felix and Federer final.i feel like felix will win the important points in that Isner match but there is no real way of predicting an outcome in this match.

 

[bjk]

Before Tiafoe congratulated Shapo on a nice shot with a low five, Tiafoe was leading 8-6. Afterwards he was 5-12.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Fedr is looking good and will win rg

 

[Silence]

Fedr is looking good and will win rg

Fedr

 

[Boom-Boom]

Fedr is looking good and will win rg

True that.

And Wimbledon (of course).

 

[I Am Finnish]

meanwhile Tsitsipas and his dutch partner koolhof have reach the final

 

[BGod]

Shapovalov stands alone now.

 

[duaneeo]

Will the final be a 19 year (to the day!) age difference?

Or, will the final be a 19 year age average?

Neither. The odds point to an old-men's final.

I'm happy whenever Roger can win another big title, but a 19 year age average final would have been great for mens tennis.

 

[EloQuent]

It's normal for teens to be blocked by older players ar first. But the lost gen is to utterly useless that it's not even them blocking these kids - it's the olds.

 

[Nostradamus]

WOW,, Kubot the choke master strikes again.... Kubot and Mello blow a match point and loses to bryans. Kubot double faults in Bottom of the net when they had match point and match point against to lose the match. Both times 2nd serve , in bottom of the net.

Stepanoe Tsitsipas is in the Final. Doubles final that is against Bryan twins. Now this is big time final. SEE what happens when big time singles player is in the Final of the doubles, much more interest. This is Why we need more top 10 players playing MORE doubles.

I agree.

Supposedly when they neutered the doubles game (no deuce, deciding tiebreaks) part of it was so that it would be less taxing for singles players to play more doubles. Of course, still didn't happen.
