2022 Terra Wortmann Open, Halle (ATP 500)

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.

You have that right about mdvdv and his penchant for fail in big matches on natural surfaces.

The Incredible Hurk got 220 points less this week than his Wimby’21 SF take but I think his grass game was tested much more thoroughly to win Halle, even though it’s Bo3. Taking out the five dangerous players he faced this week was more impressive than getting by a trio of tomato cans before beating unproven mdvdv and injured fedr to reach the SFs. He definitely could be a force again at SW19.

Musetti and Bublik are not complete pushovers on grass. And even a Fed on one knee is no joke...see Rafa and his foot injury...last year.

Hurk is very zen - continues to steadily and calmly improve. Eats nothing but grass, then proceeds to destroy it with 140 mph bombs.

This has already been an excellent grass season for Medly. 450 points so far, he had 520 last year including Wimbledon.

Isn't it 430? Winning mallorca + R16 at WB = 430?
