2025 Australian Open - General Discussion for Men's Singles

[Move]

Schoolkate serving with incredible variety to stay in this. That’s another really gutsy hold, but you can see how much of a struggle this is becoming for him.

How long can he keep his legs pumping indeed

 

[Move]

O ! Matteo, so unnecessary

 

[MichaelNadal]

Everyone is so bad at net omg

 

[Move]

Everyone is so bad at net omg

Schoolkate isn’t

 

[ark_28]

School gate needs this set, if he gets this one Sinner will be favourite still but this could be a great night for Australian sport

 

[Hitman]

Everyone is so bad at net omg

You are clearly not watching what is happening on RLA then and what Schoolkate is doing to Sinner with his serve and volley.

 

[Move]

Forza !

 

[MichaelNadal]

Schoolkate isn’t

Glad to hear it I have no plans of watching Sinner matches lol

 

[celito]

Sonego breaks and is serving for the match. Two monster passes from Sonego on the defense.

 

[MichaelNadal]

Another FAIL at the net from Matteo on an easy ass point

 

[Move]

Schoolkate NOS seems to be out of order

 

[albatros_forehand]

Sonego BREAKS and is serving for the match! Is this the end of Fonseca??

 

[Hitman]

Forza !

Finally. He has been rattled by the net play of his opponent.

 

[Move]

Matteo what are you doing

 

[MichaelNadal]

Matteo has thrown this match away smh

 

[Aussie Darcy]

This is a very tense tiebreaker between Berrettini and Rune!

Matteo just saved match point. 6-6.

 

[Move]

Matteo has thrown this match away smh

Not yet …..

 

[Move]

Good at the net for once

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Oh Matteo baby honey what was that. You’ve gifted him match point on his serve now

 

[ibbi]

Great effort from Fonseca. That was the best Brazil and Italy I’ve seen since 1982. Going up against two guys as capable as Rublev and Sonego in your first two slam matches and coming out with a win and a five setter is nothing to sneeze at. And what a match point save right at the end

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Rune gets the win.

Knocks out Berrettini in a fantastic 4 setter.

Oh Matteo, what could have been.

 

[Hitman]

Rune and Sonego both win...

 

[albatros_forehand]

Sonego wraps it

 

[Move]

Rune wins ….

 

[Pheasant]

Fonseca is out.

 

[MichaelNadal]

Matteo loses one of the most winnable tiebreaks of all time

 

[tx10is]

sonego held steady closing that out and fonseca got tight

 

[jarko111]

Could it be that when the entire ESPN staff consider you a GOAT contender so soon.. it's just a lot for a youngster to process.
I never thought that Sonego was going to win this. Wow. What a sport.

 

[Hitman]

Great effort from Fonseca. That was the best Brazil and Italy I’ve seen since 1982. Going up against two guys as capable as Rublev and Sonego in your first two slam matches and coming out with a win and a five setter is nothing to sneeze at. And what a match point save right at the end

This player is going all the way to the top IMO.

He is made for the big stage.

 

[Move]

having to win three sets is what makes GS Tennis sooo special

 

[BallisticMissileFonseca]

Sonego, man... nowhere to be seen on week 2. cashes the check and "bye guys".
Fonseca needs to study this match carefully because it exposed so many of his current weaknesses.

 

[McGradey]

Sonego serves it out and claims a brilliant fifth set. Average quality match which raised to a crescendo at the end.

Great battle from Fonseca. He will return!

 

[Move]

This player is going all the way to the top IMO.

He is made for the big stage.

But he will need good tactic coaching. Now plays on instinct

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Now wait for simpletons to call Fonseca overrated.

 

[ibbi]

Rune and Sonego both win...

1-1 for Italia with the rubber match going on.

 

[albatros_forehand]

Fons aint no Alcaraz though, 18 year old Alcaraz would have easily beaten Sonego, no ?

 

[BallisticMissileFonseca]

Gosh imagine what Maroszan Fonseca would've looked like. Now we got Sonego Maroszan.
I'm not Brazilian, I have no vested interests in any of the players, I'm just here for good tennis, that's all I care about.
Sonego ain't that good period. Also Fonseca has the yips. @Rovesciarete

 

[Pheasant]

Rune stepped up in that tiebreaker after trailing 5-2.

Sinner has turned things around in his match. His return game has stepped it up a notch.

 

[BallisticMissileFonseca]

Fons aint no Alcaraz though, 18 year old Alcaraz would have easily beaten Sonego, no ?

Baby Charlie was streaky af. Fonzy needs to go out with the bang like Carlos, and not play tight. It's better for xp.

 

[Krish872007]

Rune needed that win badly - hasn't had much to get himself going outside of Paris Masters in the last 12 months.

 

[Move]

Sinner is going to strangle Schoolkate like vintage Novak
makes him do a lot of running, and he is not coming much to the net anymore

 

[Hitman]

1-1 for Italia with the rubber match going on.

Musetti won earlier, but I guess you mean as in matches all happening at the same time.

 

[MichaelNadal]

I need lanky boring fistpumps to stay in the draw to De-Mummy it later on

 

[Tennfan123]

Tiafoe flops again

 

[Rafa4GOAT]

Sinner looks like a teen wearing his dads shirt for the first time

 

[James P]

Man, Fritz seems imperious this tournament. Quite the scorelines in the first two rounds.

 

[Hitman]

Sinner starting to look like young Undertaker again.

 

[Hitman]

Yeah...he's back.

 

[Move]

Now its Sinner taking time away ….

 

[Move]

I am quite curious about the Medvedev Tien matchup. Nice desert for today
