He has the best lob in the game by far.

This is a big match. There are actually good 3rd rounds in this part of the draw! At the same time on the other part, Nadal Thiem roll over easy opponents and Djokovic makes it look like it's hard to beat a gassed Schwarztman... Del Potro/Cuevas/Fognini are difficult 3rd round opponents imo.

brilliant volly ... let's go delpo!
Fun match to watch, but both these guys are so far off-peak, it's depressing.
No contender for the title (or the final) is on display here. This is fringe top-20 level.
Rubbish. Another one who can't enjoy tennis ever.

I can understand that. I personally am a fan of Murray, but it can frustrating when he does himself a disservice.
It show how much of an understanding of court dimensions he has.

Delpo feeds off the crowd so well, much better than most players. Suppose that's what you get when you're a crowd favourite.

Hence why he thrives in Davis Cup and Olympics atmospheres.

I think the crowd will erupt if Del Potro breaks here.

Play rose back at First Set Level.
Same exact thoughts I had until a couple of years ago. To see the amazing performance against Federer at 2013 Australian Open Semi-Finals followed by that disaster at the Final just blew my faith in him for a while.

Since the men's singles thread is dead at the moment let me say - what a game from Anderson to break.
I hope he'll have some energy in the tank for his next match against Cilic because daaaaamn he's in fantastic form.

Hope you are talking about the pre injury Delpo because he only has one shot at the moment.

Can he hold now? I want extra tennis!
I think they're playing a very tough match on clay against another player who is capable of stopping them doing everything they want to do, and I think that makes the shots and winners they're hitting even more impressive, because THIS IS WHAT TENNIS IS, A MATCHUP, NOT A HIGHLIGHTS REEL.
