2020 US Open SF - (5.) Alexander Zverev vs (20.) Pablo Carreño Busta

[Aussie Darcy]

130 MPH second serve from Zverev. Glory to the Lord..

The guy who was serving halfway into the wrong side of the court in the second set, woof how things change.

 

[MugOpponent]

The better tennis player decided to start playing. This is what happens. Big players find ways when their backs are up against the wall.

Sascha Zverev defines high level tennis.

 

[Krish872007]

PCB still has a chance or two if he can just hold his own serve

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Mardy Fish would have beaten both these guys today.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Glad PCB isn’t giving up. Unforced error by Zverev to hold for 3-4

 

[bluetrain4]

Has there ever been an 0-2 comeback with a lower sense of drama and tension?

 

[Krish872007]

Sascha Zverev defines high level tennis.

Nothing in this match is high level except for Marijana Veljovic

 

[TheNachoMan]

Geez it just looked so done and dusted. This is some epic next level choking by PCB. I mean at least Serena can say she was just bullied off the court by Vika but these stats are bad for PCB. In set 4 he won just 2 of his second serves and had 16 unforced errors to 9 winners.

I would rather get destroyed than be close to victory and choke tbh

 

[Hitman]

Is it finally time for Zed to ascend to the throne?

 

[NoleFam]

What a recovery and comeback from Zverev. He is finally at this moment after all these years but now comes the hard part of closing it out.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

I just sent the ransom guy aka @Zebrev his paypal. So Yugram should be freed. We will see if it's too late...

 

[Ginger ninja]

I do wish tennis was like WWE sometimes..

pablo hits him with a chair? That might earn him a disqualification...maybe

 

[Legend of Borg]

130 MPH second serve from Zverev. Glory to the Lord..

where can I buy one of those?

 

[junior74]

Before you edited this from 2005 to forever I was about to say something about Nadal lol.

I sorry...

 

[Nadal_King]

A preview of what men's tennis will be post big 3 are gone

 

[Steve0904]

Sascha Zverev defines high level tennis.

Yeah, don't agree with the second sentence. The first is correct though. Zverev is truly the better tennis player if he's playing anywhere B level or above.

 

[TheNachoMan]

 

[Third Serve]

I sorry...

He gonna sue

 

[icazares]

There are matches where I feel that no one deserved to lose, and there are matches...

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

How much do I hate ESPN for missing the first point like it's not important.

The umpire actually informed about this and requested help with it

 

[King No1e]

Is it finally time for Zed to ascend to the throne?

Not before Der Thieminator

 

[Breakpointerer]

PCB has two chances left

 

[junior74]

Zverev is the most complete tennis player ever...

Beat the guy who beat The Most Complete Ever and BOAT.

 

[Sysyphus]

it's so sad that *this* is the semifinal my sleep schedule allows me to watch

jk, not every day you get to witness a meme unfold right in front of your eyes

bless

 

[The Green Mile]

Zverev in bot mode, 80% 1st serves in, massive average in this set....

 

[Lleytonstation]

Will he serve it out?

 

[Steve0904]

He gonna sue

Actually I was thinking I would forbid him from umpiring any of my future matches.

 

[TheNachoMan]

Not before Der Thieminator

Knowing Thiem, he will put on a masterclass performance against Med then mug in the final

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

I'm 2 lost Busta games away from not being his fan anymore.

No pressure, kid.

 

[gogo]

Agree. Not a particularly bad match, but very plain.

Not a particularly bad match??
I beg to differ.

 

[Third Serve]

I'm 2 lost Busta games away from not being his fan anymore.

No pressure, kid.

Nothin personnel kid

 

[Italian Stallion]

Medvedev and Thiem have a lot to live up to. I'm going to need a rest after this match. There's only so much excitement a person can handle in one day.

 

[bluetrain4]

Shankapotamus.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

 

[The Green Mile]

Zverev feeling it, can see the finish line, 136 mph 2nd to hold.....

 

[Mark-Touch]

Busta looks like a very unlikely winner to me.

 

[Lleytonstation]

Guess Zverev listened to Gilbert and decided to hit 2 first serves.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Nothin personnel kid

The question is - who can I curse next? Medvedev and Tim fans sending in their offers for me to root for the other guy.

 

[Breakpointerer]

Zverev serving big this set. Can't see a way back from PCB unless Zed remembers he is a game away from a Slam Final.

 

[Ginger ninja]

There’s got to be a few double faults left in Zod

 

[Nole14_15NoPressure]

wait, was that a second serve ?
What a MONSTER

 

[AceSalvo]

Bullets on 2nd serve from Zed.

 

[Benben245]

I disagree with ESPN’s decision to show this match at .5 speed

 

[junior74]

136 mph 2nd serve...

 

[TheNachoMan]

I think I have no choice but to sleep. I’m tired..

 

[gogo]

Zed killing it on the serve.
Can PCB find a way?

 

[Meles]

 

[Krish872007]

An induced "coming of age" for Zed

 

[StrongRule]

PCB is really going to regret about this missed chance. He will probably never come closer to winning a slam.

 

[Third Serve]

The question is - who can I curse next? Medvedev and Tim fans sending in their offers for me to root for the other guy.

Just save your curses for Zverev next match... if he wins.
