2022 Terra Wortmann Open, Halle (ATP 500)

[The Fedfather]

Damn, this is going fast. Blink and you miss a game lol

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Nadal should be #1. If he wins Wimbledon he’ll be the holder of 3 slams and his ranking won’t change. lol

We know the rankings for the most part are a joke.

 

[UnderratedSlam]

Poor suckers who paid a fortune to watch this....

It's a great match. The fact that it's gonna be short perhaps doesn't mean it's bad.

 

[ScentOfDefeat]

New-age coach who leaves his irate player vs. soulful bearded coach who calmly supports his player.

If, if, if

A tennis first, and all because of politics...

People shouldn't blame the ranking system for this.

Since beating Novak in the US Open, Medvedev is 0-4 in finals. With this destruction, it looks like it'll be 0-5. Why is he coming up so small when it's time to close out the tournament now?

 

[TheNachoMan]

Since beating Novak in the US Open, Medvedev is 0-4 in his last 4 finals. With this destruction, it looks like it'll be 0-5. Why is he coming up so small when it's time to close out the tournament now?

USO 2021 looking like the worst loss of Novak’s career as time progresses.

And Medvedev is about to lose his 5th final in a row since then.

That final cursed them both.

I think he’s very unknown on grass. His best result is the fourth round at Wimbledon. Hurkacz has reached a semi.

 

[AM75]

ATP's Nr 1 my a**

That's just embarrassing.

 

[UnderratedSlam]

Now that Medvedev has nobody to scream at anymore, will he improve?

 

[Matmac]

And Medvedev is about to lose his 5th final in a row since then.

That final cursed them both.

While Hurkacz is going for his fifth straight final win. He's never lost a final.

 

[ScentOfDefeat]

That poor Gilles Cervara...
But then again, he's a new-age lunatic.

I just read a short interview with him, and it seems you're right. He talks like an Indian guru not a coach.

 

[Hokkaido]

Lights out tennis by Hurkacz today, really impressive

 

[The Fedfather]

What a shot to save a BP

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Hurkacz will be a dangerous opponent for any of the big two at wimbledon.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Hurkacz is serving lights out.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

As soon as i say that it goes to 40-30.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Hurkacz one game away.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Berrettini about to win queens as well.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Gotta make hurkacz serve out the match.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Hubie will serve for the match.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Will hubie choke?

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Congratulations Hubie Hurkacz!!!

 

[Open Stance]

Don't understand why the Halle and Queens finals are played at the exact same time.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Don't understand why the Halle and Queens finals are played at the exact same time.

I assume there is a time difference between Germany and England? It was weird seeing both of the matches end at almost exactly the same moment!

 

[junior74]

Good stuff from Hubi! Congrats!

Hubi - Kyrgi was the real final this year.

 

[clayqueen]

Med lost to Hurkacz in the Miami QF last year.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Ladies and Gentlemen this is the #1 strong era

 

[mike danny]

Sucks that Med is rounding into form on grass and can't play Wimbledon. Do I think he'd win? No. But do I think Med could prove a tricky test for the other top guys, maybe even pull an unexpected win against someone you might expect to beat him on grass - yes. Plus, his presence obviously shifts the draw. I assume the AEC is holding tight?

How about now?

 

[clayqueen]

Hubi is squatting in Federer's mansion. Will Federer ever return?

 

[Pmasterfunk]

Nice win for the incredible Hurk. He played some good tennis today, I hope he has a good run at Wimby again.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Ladies and Gentlemen this is the #1 strong era

Hurkacz looks good on grass. Forget about the rankings. We know med is not a true number 1. Blame the system.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

How about now?

Dude is hyped on grass. He has done nothing on grass just like zverev.

 

[Tennfan123]

Hubie enjoyed that!

 

[bluetrain4]

How about now?

Still

 

[mike danny]

Still

Don't think he'd upset anyone important other than Tsitsipas.

 

[Krish0608]

Don't think he'd upset anyone important other than Tsitsipas.

How’s that an upset? Especially on grass

 

[bluetrain4]

Don't think he'd upset anyone important other than Tsitsipas.

His presence still shifts the draw around, and while I generally agree, I can't be absolutely sure. Even if he bothers someone and extends a match, it could effect that player's next match. He needs to be there.

 

[Mainad]

Title #5 for Hurkacz and 1st at ATP 500 level. In winning 2022 Halle he becomes;

1. The 1st player from Poland to win the title.
2. Just the 2nd player in the history of the tournament to defeat the world #1 player in the final (following Coric's win over Federer in 2018).
3. One of just 7 players in the Open Era to win his first 5 tour-level finals. Most recent player to achieve this was Alcaraz.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

His presence still shifts the draw around, and while I generally agree, I can't be absolutely sure. Even if he bothers someone and extends a match, it could effect that player's next match. He needs to be there.

I think he would win a couple of matches only to lose a decent grasscourter.

 

[Winners or Errors]

Didn't watch. What's up with Medvedev getting spanked in back to back finals?

 

[zuluzazu]

Nadal has broken Medvedev just like Djokovic broke Tsitsipas

 

[abmk]

Nadal has broken Medvedev just like Djokovic broke Tsitsipas

glass shatters pretty easily.

 

[abmk]

So Hurkacz said "Hurr, Durr" to Mad Lad once again.

 

[stringertom]

Didn't watch. What's up with Medvedev getting spanked in back to back finals?

He hasn’t closed well since his ultimate great close at USO’21. Paris (Djokovic), Turin (Zverev), AO (Nadal), and now the two grass finals at Rosmalen (van Rijthoven) and Halle (Hurkacz). He is imitating his great friend Platopas at 500 finals with this 5-pack of failed finals at every level from 250s to slams.

They get along so well. It's no surprise their careers have taken a similar turn.

He's not a grass court player, he just appears like one against a backdrop of other non-grass court players.

Hubi eats grass for breakfast. Those vegans...never can trust them.
