2022 Wimbledon R32: [5] C. Alcaraz Garfia vs [32] O. Otte

[DariaGT]

I was wrong this kid has found his footing on the rye faster than Nadal ever has

as it dries even more its gonna get interestingly explosive from him

 

[Genious at Work]

Can Alcaraz save tennis? He's giving me a glimmer of hope.

He already has, he just has to keep doing it.

 

[SonicNirvana]

If Alcaraz ends up taking the title with this form kudos to the kid.. a legend in the making if that happens

 

[Genious at Work]

Running Backhand DTL

 

[ibbi]

Well he can’t do any worse than otte LOL. This dude is terrible

HE'S BEING MADE TO LOOK TERRIBLE! SHOW SOME RESPECT!

 

[flyingboris]

If Alcaraz wins in 3 convincingly, he is officially #3 contender for the title

Very much on track to do exactly that.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Can Alcaraz save tennis? He's giving me a glimmer of hope.

Hi Fed devotee! You are chea... Oh wait

 

[prosperned]

Wow what can you do against him? He’s got goat passing, goat volleying, goat returning, goat drop shots, goat movements.

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Alcaraz absolutely in the zone here. Absolutely ridiculous player.

 

[Kralingen]

Loving the way I was shat on at the start of this thread to seeing everyone come around.

 

[Deleted member 765728]

His average was 120mph, not 125, that's a big difference, and even at 120mph average, and with 30 aces, he almost lost the god damn match to a broken down old shell of a man. Do you not see how ridiculously over the top you are being?

I think this guy is deliberately parodizing posters who exaggerate a lot and are totally deluded.

 

[NeutralFan]

Damn, his FH is absolutely on fire with every single match, Djokovic would be running all day in qf.

 

[prosperned]

I think grass is his best surface right now. I’m shocked

 

[ibbi]

I can’t believe how easy it is for Alcaraz to create offence on a deep central ball.

This is the most insightful, rational and bang-on-point thing you've said in the whole thread

 

[NatF]

Getting ahead of myself here a bit but it's a real shame that even if Carlos wins here he gets no points to up his ranking lol.

 

[ForehandCross]

Wow Alcaraz seems to have found his range on grass.

 

[Deleted member 792641]

Baelos to carve Djokovic up like 1993 Razor Ramon

Didn’t he lose that match?

 

[DariaGT]

If Raz wins the title I want him to lick the trophy with his tongue in front of the Royals and not bite it like Nadal, maybe a Gene Simmons with lots of slurping would be the go

Green Rye is like its made for him atm

 

[Genious at Work]

Getting ahead of myself here a bit but it's a real shame that even if Carlos wins here he gets no points to up his ranking lol.

I think he would be OK with that though.

 

[Kralingen]

In all honesty I have no clue what Djokovic is going to do against this guy. I guess pray to the energy pyramids that Carlos has a bad day. LOL

 

[Carax]

Alcagrass is in the house.

 

[ibbi]

Didn’t he lose that match?

Maybe he's saying Novak is Razor Ramon and Carlito is the Kid?

 

[Rattie]

Wow Alcaraz seems to have found his range on grass.

I knew he would. Carlos has an all court game. He just needed to learn how to adjust. Good to see him playing himself into the grass event and learning fast. Impressive from the young lad.

 

[prosperned]

This is the most insightful, rational and bang-on-point thing you've said in the whole thread

Okay honestly I’m a fan of his game and it started off as a parody but this match has genuinely been that good that the exaggeration isn’t even an exaggeration right now. Cut me some slack!

 

[Deleted member 792641]

Maybe he's saying Novak is Razor Ramon and Carlito is the Kid?

Oh god, I hope Carlitos doesn’t turn out like X-Pac

 

[Fabresque]

This Otte guy is a seed at Wimbledon btw.

 

[flyingboris]

And Novak is playing his A game. Which is why Alcaraz will likely be slaughtered.

Provided Djokovic gets past the unstoppable Van Rijthoven.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

In all honesty I have no clue what Djokovic is going to do against this guy. I guess pray to the energy pyramids that Carlos has a bad day. LOL

What about Nadal?

 

[zuluzazu]

In all honesty I have no clue what Djokovic is going to do against this guy. I guess pray to the energy pyramids that Carlos has a bad day. LOL

LOL please stop

 

[DariaGT]

Otte is doing a Cressy on the serve

 

[NeutralFan]

Did Fed call Carlos ? His Serve has been Ridiculously good at Wimbledon.

 

[ibbi]

In all honesty I have no clue what Djokovic is going to do against this guy. I guess pray to the energy pyramids that Carlos has a bad day. LOL

Djokovic maybe serves better, certainly returns better, definitely moves better, and 100% rallies better. I am president of the Oscar Otte Fan Club, but comparing him to Djokovic is silly.

 

[DariaGT]

Otte serving like he wants to go home asap

and drown in a barrel of Dunkelweizen

 

[Genious at Work]

no, I think Alcaraz is playing better than any Nadal ever has on grass.

The thing is that he has evolved to this level in just 2 matches. How unreal is that?

 

[Carax]

I feel like an idiot for voting Otte in 4.

 

[ibbi]

This Otte guy is a seed at Wimbledon btw.

He was semi-finalist at both the grass-court events he played this year, lost one of them to the US Open champion, and one of them to the Wimbledon runner-up.

 

[flyingboris]

Alcar growing into Pete Sampras right in front of our eyes.

His hair looks fine

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Alcaraz’s game seems fit for grass.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

His hair looks fine

Nice and thick lol. I bet rafa would trade two of his french opens for alcaraz’s hair.

 

[Kralingen]

Carlos is the Connor McDavid, Kylian Mbappe, Karsten Warholm, Erling Haland of tennis.

Just an athletic phenom coming for the old guys, the record books, and eventually the world.

I haven't seen functional tennis athleticism like this since the Big 3.

 

[DariaGT]

6 now make it 7 unforced errors in 2+ sets playing that aggressive is a world first

 

[Rattie]

I feel like an idiot for voting Otte in 4.

We all make mistakes.

 

[DariaGT]

Nice and thick lol. I bet rafa would trade two of his french opens for alcaraz’s hair.

Not when he still has so much fuzz left in his crack

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Alcaraz sometimes hits those lucky/high risks shots that shows you are blessed by the gods of tennis

 

[Incognito]

Like I said in another thread, Carlos’ footwork on grass has the lightness and balance of peak Fed and the sprinting speed of peak Nadal. He’s going to be a handful on all surfaces.

 

[Genious at Work]

LOL Otte clapping at Alcaraz's disguised dropshot. The guy has no option but to applaud The Alcaraz Show at this time.

 

[Mivic]

Why is there a spider on every camera lens this tournament lol

 

[ChaelAZ]

Gonna straight set up in this ‘ish.

 

[Krish0608]

Otte has been utterly terrible though

 

[ForehandCross]

Why is there a spider on every camera lens this tournament lol

Mind flayer.

Not many are going to get the reference.
