Indian Wells 2024 Final: Alcaraz (2) vs Medvedev (4)

[ojo rojo]

I want this evil waste of oxygen pulverized and humiliated. After his behavior this tournament I’m not holding back. F him and his bullying and deceitfulness.

I want him questioning why he even decided to pick up a racket in the first place. I want his entire personality, approach to tennis, and legacy demolished.

In short, I want a repeat of last year.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Sinner bashing time, yeah.

Time for Charles to humiliate

Pig Meddy

 

[Vamos Carlos Alcaraz]

Hopeful for Carlitos to win this one!

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Anybody played the Like a dragon games?

 

[MeatTornado]

I don't know why, but all day I kept getting confused and thinking today's final was between Sinner & Med.

 

[Rattie]

Poll results at start of play

 

[Terenigma]

Medvedev had flashes of brilliance against Paul. This might be closer than we think.

Also i picked Medvedev, sticking to it. I didnt do it in time for the picture.

 

[Hitman]

Solid start.

 

[tudwell]

I’m pumped. Also just reflecting on how much better a place the men’s tour is in now than even just a couple years ago. Remember when Norrie, PCB, and Coric won Masters titles? Now we have a genuine top 4 and a slew of strong second-string players to pick up any slack.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Med better not serve this well for the next two hours.

 

[mehdimike]

Daniil started well.

 

[MeatTornado]

Medvedev had flashes of brilliance against Paul. This might be closer than we think.

It's still entirely on Alcaraz' racket though. If Carlos plays his best, there's nothing Med can do to dictate play on this court.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Med is playing better tennis this year than last. This will be a good match

 

[Hitman]

Look at the foot speed.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Anybody played the Like a dragon games?

Just on chapter five on the first one. Great stuff so far.

 

[Hitman]

As is stands, only Agassi, Federer and Djokovic have won all the big titles available on HC.

Med is missing AO and IW.

 

[FeroBango]

Danger

 

[bluetrain4]

Med's already made adjustments compared to last year. Not that it necessarily means he'll win.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Carlos spraying unforced errors over the place . Looking like sinner of the third set last night

 

[Hitman]

Well, there is the break....

 

[BeatlesFan]

Carlos, WTH!??

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Can’t ever sleep on Med. He’s that silent fart that always remains. He’s like a cockroach that won’t go away

 

[tudwell]

As is stands, only Agassi, Federer and Djokovic have won all the big titles available on HC.

Med is missing AO and IW.

Would be fitting if he won those last two before repeating anywhere else.

 

[FeroBango]

Easy 7 unforced from Carlos.

 

[NaDjoFed]

Alcaraz wake up in the second set as usual

 

[ultimathule]

Not surprised

 

[Hitman]

Hopefully Alcaraz hasn't had a meeting with Mr Wallace

 

[GAS]

Make one with Rasputin.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

This court is so slow.

 

[Deleted member 806402]

Carlos spraying errors like Febreze.

 

[MeatTornado]

Easy 7 unforced from Carlos.

Just another day at the office.

 

[Hitman]

Another interesting thing

If Medvedev wins this title, he'll have as many different masters titles as Federer and Nadal. Seven.

 

[The Guru]

Man ugly start to this thing

 

[Hitman]

Canas in the house.

 

[InsideOut900]

Another interesting thing

If Medvedev wins this title, he'll have as many different masters titles as Federer and Nadal. Seven.

Med has 20 titles and all won at 20 different venues.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Alcaraz will win.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Laver still kicking. That man has unreal genetics

 

[GAS]

Mrs Laver started early

 

[BeatlesFan]

Carlos is standing further back to return serve than Octopus. Knock it off please.

 

[tudwell]

Catlos already getting a little more arc on the backhand after putting so many into the net.

Not sure what those slices are doing though lol.

 

[Hitman]

Spiderman with his girlfriend. LOL

 

[Vincent-C]

Righty-o! Keep it up.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Why is Carlos playing returns from the Nadal row?

 

[Terenigma]

Medvedev is such an anomaly in tennis. It doesn't look that impressive but his shot selection is SO deceptively good and he's hard to read.

 

[sortof]

I would be very surprised if this is anything other than an Alcaraz win.

Credit to Medvedev, he complains this is his worst HC, yet he has made back to back finals here....meaning it suits him pretty well regardless.

Let's not forget that Med won a masters title on clay - the stuff he dislikes more than anything else.

 

[FeroBango]

Could get ugly.

 

[tennisjedi]

Gonna be a tough one for Alcaraz this time unlike last year.

 

[Hitman]

Keep in mind folks. Medvedev dethroned Alcaraz of his USO title....

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Med looking more like his late 2021 self.
