Dimitrov v Sinner Miami 2024 Final

[dking68]

Thank God Charlie stopped him in IW. Otherwise he would be looking like a god by now.

Still 39-3 post USOpen and that too vs all big players. There is no hint of weakness.

Sinner is NOW.

 

[junior74]

Carrot is too hot to handle

 

[mike danny]

At least Dimi has his masters unlike Rao and Nishi

 

[NaDjoFed]

Well deserved.

 

[dking68]

@nolefam_2024 Sinner reaches #2 at 22 years and 7 months.

Nole reached it at 22 years and 9 months.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Number two in the world … and counting

He is number 1 in everyone's mind. This is 2011 all over again. It's just matter of time before a true kingdom of sinner starts.

Game over for everyone.

 

[GRASScaraz]

Sinner well rested and ready for MC at least

 

[Spin Diesel]

Number two in the world … and counting

Oh really - I missed that. Nice!

 

[Vincent-C]

Well that's that. My hat is off to Jannik Sinner- great job. That guy's gonna be winning for awhile.
Thanks for the great tennis here Grigor, but this kid is too tough.

 

[hades11]

It's a shame Tabilo and Hurkacz threw away the matches against Grigor, would've loved to see an Alcaraz Sinner final.

 

[Carax]

Watching the end of Dimitrov's run

 

[Kralingen]

I’m thinking 10 Slams before age 30.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

I know it's early to say this but, IMO, Sinner is, at least making the SF of the FO. Even on clay, besides a great Alcaraz or Djokovic I have a hard time seeing who is going to beat him if he's playing decently , his shot tolerance in long rallies and his power are going to be a nightmare for almost everyone.

 

[GRASScaraz]

@nolefam_2024 Sinner reaches #2 at 22 years and 7 months.

Nole reached it at 22 years and 9 months.

How many Masters did Novak win by then?

 

[nolefam_2024]

@nolefam_2024 Sinner reaches #2 at 22 years and 7 months.

Nole reached it at 22 years and 9 months.

He is going to be number 1 just like that. But Nole had fedal ahead of him. He has no one. It's going to be so ugly so fast.

Hang on. The haters will line up now.

 

[Ray Mercer]

Sinner is getting that Fed aura about him. Everyone is gonna want to avoid him soon.

Nobody is going to beat him from the baseline, not even Djokovic. His ground strokes are powerful and elite from both sides and he’s moving at an elite level. The only guy that has a shot is Alcaraz with his droppers and variety.

 

[NaDjoFed]

1 Slam, 1 Master 1000, 1 ATP500 in three months.

Not too bad

 

[Hitman]

You're looking at the man who will end Djokovic's final reign as world number one.

It will be a true passing of the torch for the king of the last generation to the king of this new one.

 

[canta_Brian]

@nolefam_2024 Sinner reaches #2 at 22 years and 7 months.

Nole reached it at 22 years and 9 months.

Weak era

 

[Baseline_Bungle]

INSINNERATION: COMPLETE

 

[TheSlicer]

At least the Guy is likeable you gotta give him that

 

[MeatTornado]

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed.

Oh well, still got a lot of entertaining tennis out of Grigor this week. Was a pleasure to watch him in full flight against Alcaraz & Zverev. And he saves tennis by getting a 1HBH back into the top 10 again.

 

[nolefam_2024]

How many Masters did Novak win by then?

5

 

[hades11]

At least Dimi has his masters unlike Rao and Nishi

He played Kyrgios in final while Raonic and Nishikori lost all 8 finals to Nadal and Djokovic.

 

[dking68]

He is going to be number 1 just like that. But Nole had fedal ahead of him. He has no one. It's going to be so ugly so fast.

Hang on. The haters will line up now.

I think he reaches number one at 22 years 10 months

 

[acintya]

Sinner is the new Djokovic. A baseline robot with powerful ground strokes and really good movement. He’s got no slice, no net game and all his points look the same. It’s the ideal style for winning in the modern game. I personally find it boring. Federer’s decline and retirement hurt the game so much in terms of entertainment.

true.

i hate tennis right now

 

[GhostDog]

Sinner is on another level right now. Made Dmitrov look helpless.

 

[Thundergod]

It was a fun ride while it lasted. Back to the same Dimitrov we all know and love for the rest of the season.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

The sort of win you would be hoping for, probably. Of course, the dream is always to have some epic encounter in a final. No disrespect to ol Grigor, but this is the sort of beat down you crave. The top player giving the mid-player a good spanking.

Happy easter.

Watching the end of Dimitrov's run

I think peak Paul Newman would have taken a set off Dimitrov today and looked fabulous while doing it.

 

[Carax]

 

[junior74]

Grigor had a BP in game 4 after a perfect start and that's the chances you can't miss against this type of quality.

While I am in the same boat with the general sentiment, Sinner is pretty respectable in the forecourt.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Well we will see what happens on clay. I don’t how good the field is gonna be. Sinner could possibly dominate that surface too and surprise everyone. This tour looks in pretty bad shape against sinner right now

 

[Nuclear Warhead Sinner]

Djoker has that crazy side that spices things up.

 

[hades11]

Sinner will win multiple slams this year. Money is on him to take Wimbledon his game is perfect for it.

 

[Baseline_Bungle]

In this Joyful Easter Sunday, the Sinnerman finds redemption in MIA.

 

[NaDjoFed]

Sinner can surprise on Clay. I am pretty sure

 

[Hitman]

What happened? I'm just following the scoreline.

One of the worst overhead smashes you'll see this year.

 

[The Devil probably]

At least the Guy is likeable you gotta give him that

He’s dull af, but indeed, he’s a good, well mannered guy.

 

[hades11]

Sinner can surprise on Clay. I am pretty sure

He took Nadal very close at RG before. He will be a top contender for sure but I'd back Alcaraz there.

 

[TheSlicer]

He’s dull af, but indeed, he’s a good, well mannered guy.

Hes not dull at all compared to his game

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Sinner will win multiple slams this year. Money is on him to take Wimbledon his game is perfect for it.

If he doesn’t win 3 slams this year I will be very surprised. Unless Nadal and djoker have one last run

 

[guga_fan]

Nobody is going to beat him from the baseline, not even Djokovic. His ground strokes are powerful and elite from both sides and he’s moving at an elite level. The only guy that has a shot is Alcaraz with his droppers and variety.

Djokovic doesnt even beat Fritz from the baseline nowadays. Alcaraz is the only one who is capable, just like he did in IW. Alcaraz must be better from the baseline to wing against Sinner, because his serve and return are worse. Carlos will really have to be Nadal’s successor to dominate.

 

[Winners or Errors]

Well, went on a bike ride, got back, and it’s already over. Looks like Sinner lived up to his top billing and Dimitrov showed us why he hasn’t many titles…

 

[dking68]

I think peak Paul Newman would have taken a set off Dimitrov today and looked fabulous while doing it.

Rune isn’t winning a slam with Sinner playing.

Exactly this. Another Djoko clone is born with a more boring personality. Jeez! Alcaraz better step it up.

 

[rUDin 21]

Is Sinner now officially no.2 for the first time?

 

[Mark-Touch]

true.

i hate tennis right now

Men's tennis is perfect for me right now.
I take a peek at matches for a game or two (like today) and then tune out until
another big final. Then rinse and repeat.

I invest little time in the ATP tour and focus almost all of my pro tennis attention on the WTA.

 

[Baseline_Bungle]

Happy Easter folks...

... THEME SONG!
