2019 US Open 4R: (1.) Ultron vs. (23.) Stanimal

[dropshotlikeitshot]

Judging by your avatar, you better hope for the opposite.

I’m just hoping that it’s a match worthy of comparison to their previous slam meetings

 

[Mike Sams]

How is the state of his shoulder?
Does he still feel the pain there?

Djokovic is going to try to fake injury to get Stan off his game. Same way he tried at US Open 4th set to disrupt Stan's momentum.

Hell naw LOL, they have enough Slam gems. I'd prefer Djokovic doesn't have problems with him this time.

 

[3fees]

Stanimule, the underdog.

Cheers

[icedevil0289]

hopefully its not underwhelming either way.

 

[eagletennis]

Am I bad fan if I predict Djokovic loses

Same here. I'm tired of these instant classics between these two. Especially since it is already 2.26am here already

 

[Noleberic123]

Wawrinka has won their last two grand slam meetings. RG 15 and USO 16. Since 2013 the GS h2h between them is 3-3.

2013 USO- 2-6 7-6 3-6 6-3 6-4 Djokovic

2016 USO- 6-7 6-4 7-5 6-3 Wawrinka

All great matches.

 

[skip1969]

Just finished the nap. The women were awesome (by finishing in straights). Now, I'm ready to go.

Don't let me down, Stan.

[MeatTornado]

I can't believe these 2 haven't played since their final in 2016. Feels like a lifetime ago.

 

[Pablo1989]

AO 2013 is one of the best matches ever, totally underrated. The birth of STAN THE MAN

 

[Noleberic123]

Hoping for another good one tonight!

I'm hoping Djokovic wins easily. ahaha

 

[Deleted member 743561]

How many surgeries did Stan have on his knees?

Can't believe he's back to this level of play.

 

[True Fanerer]

Got a six pack in the fridge for this one.

I hope it delivers.

 

[Third Serve]

Hope we'll get some nice tennis!

 

[True Fanerer]

I'm hoping Djokovic wins easily. ahaha

Noooooo, 5 sets.

 

[JoelSandwich]

That match is not underrated

 

[skip1969]

Is there a secondary espn3/espn+ stream for this match? I'm not seeing it.

Please tell me there is. Please tell me I'm not gonna have to suffer through Gilbert and the rest of the dreaded Prime Time crew.

 

[Serve&Volley7]

I'm hoping Djokovic wins easily. ahaha

Haha we always want our favorites to win easily so I don’t blame you there

 

[BeatlesFan]

Am I bad fan if I predict Djokovic loses

Not bad, just wrong.

 

[Serve&Volley7]

Thinking Novak in 3 with it being close for about a set and a half

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Chose Djoko in 4, but I really don’t know at all!

 

[skip1969]

Crisis averted. I found the espn3 stream. I looked for it a little to early is all.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Haha we always want our favorites to win easily so I don’t blame you there

Strongly disagree. For Djokovic fans, would you guys rather have had a 6-2, 6-1, 6-3 win over Federer at Wimbledon or the epic 5 hour match where he saved MP's? We don't want our favorites to have easy matches in the finals with plenty of rest assured afterwards.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Novak to Cahill: "My shoulder is good."

 

[skip1969]

I hate pre-match interviews almost as much as I hate post-match interviews.

The easier the better.

 

[Nostradamus]

Can Stanimal doi it ... lets hope so. Stanimal 5000 RPM topspin might make novak shoulder hurt so bad, he may ritire ?

6-2 6-1 6-3 please. My life got shortened by at least 10 years during this years Wimbledon final

Probably phased that poorly. Sure it’s nice to have easy matches (takes the stress out of it for us fans) to conserve energy. That way if they need an extra gear in a semifinal or final they have it. Unlike zverev who can’t seem to play a 3 setter in a GS lol

 

[skip1969]

US Open entrances are so so cheesy. DJ Lame-a-lot.

 

[chjtennis]

So Djokovic needed 5 sets while Stan could win in 4 since 2013? I hope Wawa puts up a good fight, win or lose.

 

[Nadal_King]

One thing with Stan is he can strike at any time, he could be a set and break down and still win in 4 sets or even vice versa is possible.All depends on what level he brings and also how efficient is djokovic in what he does.

 

[Standaa]

Djokovic has the type of personality NYers cringe over.

wait what do you mean?

 

[sliceroni]

It's Stan and there will be a fight. Matches like these bring out the best even if their recent level is not on par.

 

[MeatTornado]

This is the test for Stan. This is what the last 2 years of recovery have finally lead to.

 

[Mainad]

Two US Open champions facing off tonight: the defending and 3 time champion against the 2016 champion (who beat the defending champion to win his title).

 

[MeatTornado]

The McEnroes have no idea what they're talking about lol

Do you give the arthritic-kneed geriatric champion a chance?

You just had to remind us didn't you

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

Any good stream please?

 

[Terenigma]

Here we go then

 

[skip1969]

No matter if he plays at 11AM, first match on, or the 9PM Prime Time match, Stan always looks like he just rolled out of bed.

I love me some Stan.

 

[ChaelAZ]

At least Stan has a decent kit on. He has had some serious clown or Vegas rug inspired outfits.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Here we go! Hope it’s competitive but maybe wawa throws up another stinker.

 

[Noleberic123]

Stan looks like he is striking the ball well...

 

[BeatlesFan]

Now where are those people claiming Stan is "fat?" Look the dude, he's built like a Mack truck.

 

[Noleberic123]

Djoker hitting a lot of DPs in this match

 

[Federer and Del Potro]
