2021 Rome Masters - General Discussion

[Dominic & Andrey]

WHAT A POINT AMAZZIIIIIIIIING DEFENSE

 

[Krish0608]

And Nadal almost choked in the third set. I have no doubt he would have lost the match if he lost the third set.

Give it up dude. Your predictions are the worst. You always predict Rafa to lose every match he plays. He wins most of them. Esp on clay.

 

[ForehandCross]

GOAT Point.

Vintage Thiem. Grind him down.

As I said even if he loses this is good tennis from him, way better than what things foretold.

 

[ForehandCross]

WTF was that ??

 

[StrongRule]

Give it up dude. Your predictions are the worst. You always predict Rafa to lose every match he plays. He wins most of them. Esp on clay.

Yeah, we see how he wins most of them. It's been 2 years since he reached a clay masters semifinal for the last time.

 

[ForehandCross]

Sonego hitting spots like Federer on serve.

Pathetic from Thiem from 40-15 up

 

[Krish0608]

Yeah, we see how he wins most of them. It's been 2 years since he reached a clay masters semifinal for the last time.

4 RGs in a row. He’s never losing at RG till he plays. That’s all that matters.

 

[ForehandCross]

Finally a bad miss from Sonego. Don't miss this chance

 

[ForehandCross]

This is incredible from Sonego.

Why is everyone playing out of their skin against Thiem thesedays??

 

[ForehandCross]

bad Sportsmanship alert

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

This is incredible from Sonego.

Why is everyone playing out of their skin against Thiem thesedays??

Sonego is playing almost top 10 level in this match

 

[ForehandCross]

I officially hate this kid.

Still feel he will win, but from here on add one more to my dislike list

 

[ForehandCross]

A MB, He needed that as an incentive more than a lead.

 

[ForehandCross]

THAT BH WAS FIRE.

 

[MeatTornado]

I just had a total brainfart and forgot it's only the 2nd set.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Tim hits a perfect bh winner, almost no applause, this crowd doesn't like the good tennis

 

[ForehandCross]

I just had a total brainfart and forgot it's only the 2nd set.

Don't worry @StrongRule in clay season forgets that Nadal means Rafael Nadal not Danill Medvedev

 

[ForehandCross]

Looks like he will rue that dropper. Sonego will hit big and land a winner in

 

[MeatTornado]

Thiem's thrown away 2 points with drop shots this breaker.

So dumb.

 

[ForehandCross]

What an absolute mess of a lob.

 

[ForehandCross]

Thank god that didn't land in

 

[Arak]

Thiem’s brain must be the size of a chicken’s brain.

 

[ForehandCross]

WHAT A SERVE AND WHAT A RETURN. Only Thiem can Hit Topspin return off of that

 

[ForehandCross]

Sonego is suddenly a top 10 player in some of these points

 

[flyingboris]

What a fight to grab that second set! Exciting tennis these last few games.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Thiem is still alive !!!!

 

[ForehandCross]

CMON VAMOSSSSSSSSSS

 

[ForehandCross]

Wait what is happening??

 

[cha cha]

Curfew calling in Rome?

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

What is going on

 

[ForehandCross]

My stream doesn't a commentator. What is happening will they now play tommorow?

 

[flyingboris]

Wait what is happening??

Mandatory dance party it seems

 

[rUDin 21]

Why are they stopped?

 

[marc45]

Thiem gives the ball the back of his hand

 

[MeatTornado]

Well that sucks

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Apparently they will play on another court wtffffffffffff

Oh wait no maybe just without crowd

 

[ForehandCross]

Twitter says they are suspended due to lockdown?? This is an utter mess.

Then why start so late???????????

 

[cha cha]

Apparently they will play on another court wtffffffffffff

Oh wait no maybe just without crowd

Sounds right. The Rublev Bautista match is a ghost town.

 

[Krish0608]

They will resume once the crowd leaves

 

[Baseline_Bungle]

At a time when the whole world, unbeknownst to the majority, is rapidly sinking into a dystopian totalitarian nightmare... Italy manages to remain the biggest mess of all.

 

[MeatTornado]

If they're really going to start again once the crowd is gone,

1) Why do the players need to leave the court too?

2) Why is Rublev/RBA still going on with fans in the crowd?

 

[mike danny]

Sonego grunting AFTER hitting the ball is unbearable lol

RBA does the same.

 

[ForehandCross]

If they're really going to start again once the crowd is gone,

1) Why do the players need to leave the court too?

2) Why is Rublev/RBA still going on with fans in the crowd?

Yep, absurd.

 

[Krish0608]

Rublev RBA is suspended as well

 

[ForehandCross]

To make the players leave is just absurd.

They would need warm up when back. And even then the rhythm probably won't come back.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Even though the crowd was against Thiem, the atmosphere was amazing

Starting the match again without the crowd ruins everything, this match could have been a great match but now not anymore.

Agree.So many "rules"nowadays it's hurting the flow of the game, I don't get it.Will they continue?

 

[ForehandCross]

Now they are coming back.

 

[Baseline_Bungle]

It's like playing the first two sets on wet clay and the third on grass. Absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

RBA does the same.

True, but usually his grunt is less loud so not that annoying to me. Schwartzman does it sometimes too
