2021 US Open - Men's Singles - General Discussion

[80s New Wave]

Seppi puts 33% first serves in and wins the set

How did he even hold serve at all?? Returning must be really bad or at least way too passive.

 

[stringertom]

It feels like the field is opening up, making getting into the QF quite easy for the Top10.

Don't see Djokovic losing before QF.

The last time I saw Joe Kovic losing before QFs I still had hair on the top of my head.

Pretty easy when you are playing a guy who isn’t really a professional

 

[stringertom]

He will take the fourth 6-3

Is he imagining Thompson to be his USO version of FAA at AO??? If so, Thompson overachieved in the third set.

 

[Kralingen]

Hurkacz immediately broken by Seppi in the 4th after going down 2-1 in sets. Long mountain to climb for him.

Hurkacz is playing like a bag of trash, who can't play more than a 5 shot rally without missing.

He overwhined as well

HH is streaky.

HUBERT HURKACZ IN BREAK BACK SERVE SHOCKER!

HUBERT HURKACZ IN BREAK BACK SERVE SHOCKER!

First game in about an hour where he actually was able to keep the ball on court

 

[MeatTornado]

Taking everything the Miami Champion has to fend off stron era journeyman.

 

[ibbi]

HH is streaky.

Probably come back and win now Pretty sure Seppi played a 5 setter in the first round too. No way he'll last.

He does look more with it now.

 

[Kralingen]

I would love to see McDonald play Djokovic. Have seen far too much of Mr. Pushikori vs. the Big 3, including at the Olympics last month which was truly a humiliation.

Looking good as Mac is up 5-2.

 

[ewiewp]

Seppi, the guy who beat Federer at AO.

 

[stringertom]

Why the sledge of the Italian mountain man, champion on three surfaces, the author of fedr’s earliest AO exit this century and the only top 100 pro to know a good stick like a Pro Kennex?

Kei doesn't even get warmed up until the 4th set at slams.

Seppi, the guy who beat Federer at AO.

Seppi, the 37 year old who beat Federer at the AO SIX years ago

Memorable and long TB in the fifth vs Fucsovics.

*Peak Fed

"I think I’m a better player now than when I was at 24 because I’ve practised for another 10 years and I’ve got 10 years more experience,” Federer said. “Maybe I don’t have the confidence level that I had at 24 when I was winning 40 matches in a row, but I feel like I hit a bigger serve, my backhand is better, my forehand is still as good as it’s ever been, I volley better than I have in the past.”

I miss NoleisBOAT sometimes.

 

[stringertom]

*Peak Fed

No, that was just 3 to 4 years ago.

Seppi serving to stay in set 4

Seppi, the guy who beat Federer at AO.

Never forget

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Nice return from HH

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Seppi’s win over Fed that time was so much fun. Four sets, too.

 

[Mr.Lob]

Stevie Johnson starting to fall into the Andy Murray category of top whiners. I think I see steam coming out of his ears.

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Seppi saves three set points and it’s a tiebreak

 

[stringertom]

Otte into 3R. With that paycheck he can retire from doing tours as the night watchman at a Rhine River castle:

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Epic rally between hurkacz and seppi!

 

[Deleted member 771911]

some rally

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Seppi with all the luck

 

[ibbi]

#weakera

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Seppi!
Sad for HH. I like him. But happy for Seppi.

 

[romeo8880]

SEE YA HURKACZ. No heart, no clutch, no third round. Go play Miami

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Great win for seppi!

 

[I Am Finnish]

Strategy tank for IW

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Thompson and the lion in a fourth set breaker

 

[stringertom]

Seppi the original Italian mountain man into 3R!

Sinner the younger Italian mountain man is up a set vs the American teen Svajda.

<3 those Dolomites!

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Aslan gets the mini break and roars

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Thompson got the mb back

 

[fundrazer]

Thompson got the Ron Jeremy look going on. First it was just the porno stache but now he's got the hair to match too.

He realized he was never going to be the new Newcombe, so settled for the next best thing.

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Thompson on that match point...

 

[Deleted member 771911]

Good scrambling from Ron Jeremy

 

[ibbi]

The camera angle on court 11 really is just the god damn worst

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Some nice rallies in karatsev Thompson match

 

[Rafa4GOAT]

Karatsev pls
