2024 Monte Carlo semi-final: [12] Stefanos Tsitsipas v [2] Jannik Sinner

[Hitman]

Both of them have massive forehands.

 

[Pheasant]

Sinner still isn’t playing his best tennis. He’s only won 4/12 of Tsitsipas’ 2nd service points.

You can't claim it like that. Tsitsipas has good second serve as well.

 

[Kralingen]

Tsitsipas finally not playing like a mug, still think his return game will betray him though.

That is a great call.

 

[Hitman]

Man, Sinner reads the game so freaking well. Its like he is playing chess from both sides.

Sinner still isn’t playing his best tennis. He’s only won 4/12 of Tsitsipas’ 2nd service points.

He’s coming into his own, remember how he struggled against Griekspoor in Miami, and it became 1 way traffic till the title

 

[Hitman]

That was nice from Tsitsipas.

 

[Pheasant]

Wow. Break point.

 

[StrongRule]

After 2 decades of no talent on clay, i genuinely think there are a handful of players that will contest the big clay titles going forward. The future is looking good!

Right, good future, where a 37 years old is about to keep vulturing clay titles, a surface where he wasn't unbeatable even during his peak.

Just admit you don't care about tennis at all. For you, anything without Nadal is great.

 

[mehdimike]

That was nice from Tsitsipas.

That was terrible from sinner.

 

[guga_fan]

Sinner’s dropshots have been awful today, most of them very long.

 

[Hitman]

Man that was ballsy from Sinner. Iron will.

 

[Pheasant]

Wow. What a rally. Nice defense to get to deuce.

 

[Hitman]

That was a missile!

 

[guga_fan]

Hit to the backhand, no?

 

[dking68]

Wow. What a rally. Nice defense to get to deuce.

I think it’s safe to say Sinner has a better forehand than Tsitsipas now.

 

[Pheasant]

Boom! Sinner shot that forehand out of a cannon to win the game. Wowzers!!!!

 

[NaDjoFed]

Good hold by Sinner. Good match

 

[mehdimike]

Sinner is hitting some missiles today.

 

[Spin Diesel]

Strong hold!

 

[Pheasant]

I think it’s safe to say Sinner has a better forehand than Tsitsipas now.

His forehand is phenomenal; I agree. He’s also got a very strong backhand.
What’s scary is that even though his level is great now, I still see some room for improvement. That’s a very scary thoughtful.

 

[Carax]

Sinner playing like a champion out there. It's an uphill battle for Tsitsipas now.

 

[dking68]

His forehand is phenomenal; I agree. He’s also got a very strong backhand.
What’s scary is that even though his level is great now, I still see some room for improvement. That’s a very scary thoughtful.

Yup I think we haven’t seen his best play yet and he’s 25-1 this season. Remember my late bloomer thread, still sticking it with it tbh.

 

[Hitman]

Insane!

 

[mehdimike]

What a point

 

[Phenomenal]

Wow.

 

[NaDjoFed]

What a point. Fantastic

 

[Spin Diesel]

What a point!

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

What a point!! Both guys playing so well right now.

 

[NoleFam]

Tsitsipas chooses the wrong shot over and over again. He likes to go back crosscourt too much. Sinner is popping the ball right now. Edit: bp now for Tsitsipas though.

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Sinner UFEing

 

[NaDjoFed]

2bp tsitsi. Incredible

 

[Spin Diesel]

there‘s the sloppy service game that I hoped wouldn‘t happen

 

[Hitman]

Wow!

 

[guga_fan]

One thing the commentator here said is that it is good watching Tsitsi because the worse his BH is in a day, the more he has to redline on the forehand.

It usually does not work, but it is cool when it does.

Very good movement to hit run around the BH

 

[Spin Diesel]

Great first BP

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Great save from Sinner!

 

[>17]

I think it’s safe to say Sinner has a better forehand than Tsitsipas now.

sinner does everything better than tsitsipas at this point, even philosophy

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Sinner is ice cool on the big points!

 

[guga_fan]

I just can’t accept that BH. How does Tsitsi accept this? It keeps undoing the rest of his game. Find a decent coach!

 

[Hitman]

Sinner is the best thing to happen to tennis since the introduction of tie breaks.

Incredible.

 

[guga_fan]

I think it’s safe to say Sinner has a better forehand than Tsitsipas now.

If that was remotely true, the match would not be at all contested.

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Sinner survives again

 

[dking68]

Sinner take the fricken set for god sake

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Sinner is the best thing to happen to tennis since the introduction of tie breaks.

Wot

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

LOL. Tstsipas and Rune have to be the two biggest mugs on tour. You give them a roll of
Golden toilet paper and they will turn it brown in seconds they blow every chance up that would give them easy wins

 

[InsideOut900]

Sinner abusing the Tsitsipas BH like hell on BPs. Wonder why he only does it when down

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Sinner take the fricken set for god sake

Tsitsipas breaks (racquet)

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Sinner abusing the Tsitsipas BH like hell on BPs. Wonder why he only does it when down

He wants to outhit Tsitsipas in FH duels

 

[NaDjoFed]

what a game. Tsitsi hitting line every shot
