This is quickly becoming a headache for Med. One wrong move and we may be going 5. Wow. Who would have thought?

Boric has figured out a game plan to play vs Med and no counter yet from the #2.

Nah I’m American just studied at Erasmus in Rotterdam for my grad degree. You might notice my username is a Dutch neighborhood ;)

I was considering moving back but a lot of my friends there have gone to other countries and I’d have to learn Dutch to gain citizenship. Would love to return at some point in my life though, it’s an amazing country
 
This could really go the distance. Med's forehand is looking shaky.
And if it goes to the 5th, we might see the biggest upset of the tournament.

Imagine if Med loses to Boric and then Zverev loses to Harris. Wow.

Think Med needed this test, because no matter who he plays in the final, it is going to be a major step up from what he has been coming up against so far.

Now I'm thinking he won't get to the final. Based on today's performance he would lose to FAA or unable to escape from Alcatraz.
 
Imagine:
VsZ beats Meddy
FAA beats Alcaraz
harris beats zverev
Berry beats djoko

faa beats vdZ
Harris beats berry

faa beats harris

I'm thoroughly impressed by the cakewalk draw Medvedev has to the finals. Literally one of the weakest paths to final match in the history of tennis.

Wow opened the flashscore and seen the result of first two sets (6:3, 6:0) plus medical timeout, left this comment, went home from a pickup basketball game in the neighborhood, had a shower, a dinner, and suddenly vdZ is back in the game with 6:4 in third and 4:4 in fourth.
 
When’s the last time an unseeded player made a major final? (Also, has there ever been two unseeded players in a final?)

At least as bad of a beatdown, maybe worse if he remembers the AO final and craps his diaper again.

These players look strong af leading up to important matches then just remember their own mediocrity.

Unfortunate for Med, he's just not good enough and hasn't improved at the same rate as the other next gen. He needs more weapons.

Medvedev is not a future ATG. Two slams max.
