Can’t wait. Seems like ages since Charley played.
Ya! Boo! to them. I have found TennisTv.com useful.Sky Sports give us a dedicated tennis channel and decide they are only showing the final of this tournament
Yes, Nicolas could be a challenge, He's come up the rankings - number 18 at present. He took the 1st set in their SF in Rio 2023, and at Wimbledon 2023 - he can be a handful. He's playing Stan in his first match - can Stan prevail?
Turns out they are showing the other matches but only on the red button. So I can’t record those. Means I miss them if I’m busy and there is no on demand. Do you have tennis tv on your television though? I’d go for that instead but what puts me off is that I can only watch it on my iPad.
I have TTv.com because I can watch whilst working and its great for that purpose on my laptop. I can attach to the TV to watch on the bigger screen if we want to. I refuse to subscribe to Sky, but have Eurosport.
So every time a pro loses an early round, it is because they didn’t try hard?
maybe his plan wasnt losing, but i could be crazy you know
Lol they havent even played 2 games!
cant hold
He is serving a bit like sh*t but he has to settle, carabeli has been competing in these courts for a week
Lol call me crazy but i see no similarities
This is the most pertinent question ever asked in the whole history of humankind (possibly in all of creation). Ugo playing well. Carlos looking unperturbed. Neither seems to want this 4th game in the 2nd set.
It won't do those white socks much good though. He did not hold and Carlos should get this done in straights - I hope he doesn't make it interesting! Lool.
Extending the points too much though, trying to rally with Alcaraz is no good idea
And where, one asks, is the focus? Anyway, onwards.
you should have seen fed at his age
Carlos has just said in the court interview that he was a bit nervous at the start, and it showed. I disagree re: tennis IQ. It is precisely his superb innate feel for the game that has separated him from the other younger players. I anticipate that he'll improve / hone his skills to be more incisive when needed. His opponent had some matches here already, and had nothing to lose, putting up an admirable challenge. Yet it never looked as though Carlos was under threat. He was able to right the ship when needed. I suspect that, as @Slicer said, it's lack of match play and getting used to the conditions here .......
Loool! Quality, not quantity, my friend!
I agree, honestly prefer It this way but It just surprises me that the ones saying all the things Carlos lacks dont even watch his games, at least when i critizice a player i talk first hand, anyway, good to see you here and lets see what this tournament has for us.Carlos has just said in the court interview that he was a bit nervous at the start, and it showed.

Darderi comes hot off the win in Cordoba, so ought to be keen, playing Baez. I'm off though, and look forward to the QF's.
no, he is too short to amount to anything, he puts too much spin on his shots, he has absolutely no tennis IQ and he will have a hewit like career at best
