burned by half dozen crazy shots.Mad Lad is pretty Mad today
Agreed but how did he beat Djokovic in Monte Carlo last year? He lost 1R at RG in 17, 18 and 19. Let's see if he survives 1st round.Meddy is poor on clay,I overestimated his potential the other in a thread his groundstrokes are just ineffective it seems on clay just getting them in to play, will find it tough to reach second week at french it seems
I seriously think djokovic on clay these days us surviving purely on his talent and abilities as a player otherwise one can stand against his brand of clay tennis which imo is decent at best in past few yearsAgreed but how did he beat Djokovic in Monte Carlo last year?

How will you explain that Benoit Paire is a professional tennis player but unable to complete a match without either totally tanking or feigning injury???HOW AM I GOING TO EXPLAIN TO MY KIDS THAT JAN LEONARD STRUFF WAS UP A BREAK 5-4 IN THE 3RD ON KHACHANOV AND LOST 5-7

His beard is too heavy and inhibit his movement around the court.How will you explain that Benoit Paire is a professional tennis player but unable to complete a match without either totally tanking or feigning injury???
Horrendous net playHOW AM I GOING TO EXPLAIN TO MY KIDS THAT JAN LEONARD STRUFF WAS UP A BREAK 5-4 IN THE 3RD ON KHACHANOV AND LOST 5-7
Isn’t it worse than this? RG starts Sunday and the final is Sunday. They will have to play Monday or Tuesday, the finalist. If in semifinal RG should allow the player to play Monday at the earliest.I looked up the definition of booby prize in the dictionary. One of the listings was:
Hamburg’20 title
Let’s say Ruud or Tsitsipas are both good enough and crazy enough to make the final. Both would play 5 Bo3 matches from Wednesday to Sunday, then fly from Hamburg to Paris and prepare for potentially 7 Bo5 matches on clay, all in the first 30-45 days after tennis resumed.
Can you say strategic tank???
Most other players in his situation probably would’ve finished the match.How will you explain that Benoit Paire is a professional tennis player but unable to complete a match without either totally tanking or feigning injury???
PossiblyGarin is good.

They might have nightmares if you tell them that he was actually up two breaks in the set at one point.HOW AM I GOING TO EXPLAIN TO MY KIDS THAT JAN LEONARD STRUFF WAS UP A BREAK 5-4 IN THE 3RD ON KHACHANOV AND LOST 5-7
Actually did an improvised tweenher past to get breakpoint.Wow Hanfmann was impressive to break back while Garin was serving for the match. Nice volleys from Hanfmann!
