Kei "The Moth" Nishikori defeats Andy "The Gong Show" Murray

[BlueB]

A thread for all your ribbing, jokes, ********, desperation, celebration... Everything goes

 

[kishnabe]

Lol....why is everyone making a big deal over the moth? Reddit is exploding with jokes as well.

 

[BlueB]

Damn autocorrect. It should read Gong, non Ginger...
Mods help please.

Fair play to Nishikori, great performance. As a Murray fan I'm very disappointed with this result but as a Nishikori fan this is great to see. Reminding everyone what he's capable of. Got a pretty good chance of another US Open Final I reckon and who knows. Maybe time to get the title he should've got last time.

 

[mellowyellow]

Yes, Murry Python's Flying Circus is back...

 

[Mr.Lob]

This is a photo of the moth that brought Murray to his knees. A Japanese moth! How? Who? Nishi? Djokovic? Chico? This is no coincidence!

 

[chjtennis]

Just like in 2014, it would be great to see two players who never has won a slam in their career in the USO final.

 

[NoleFam]

Just curious. Why is Nishikori being called "the moth"?

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Murray wins -> Weak era
Nishikori wins -> Weak era

 

[metsman]

gongshow describes Kyrgios, not Murray.

and you know why that is?

Not any more After today's events Andy would be forever the only righteous bearer of that title.

hahaahah loving all the Michael Cole gifs. Who knew wrestling was good for something?

 

[KINGROGER]

Well done to Nishikori. Big victory for him.

 

[racquetreligion]

Muzzler = boring hacker era
Muzzler vs Nole = most boring matches of the hacker era
Samurai Noodles = aggressive baseline era

Seriously I feel sorry now for the NexGen or aggressors even older DelPo, Dolgo and Cilic
to put up with the hackery of Muzzler, Nole and Rafa the greatest hackery trio ever

I am the nextGEN here to force play with aggression
not Hack my way with slicing it all back like Muzzler
although courts suit pushers I will never use Hackery

 

[KINGROGER]

Great post mate^!

That's why Fed is the GOAT.

You didn't watch, obviously

Not only that he is lightweight and flies around court like a moth, but he also teamed up with one to defeat the Scotsman.
Moths are known to be deadly for wool. He chewed the holes in that Scottish kilt and Murray got exposed.

I missed most of the match because I was at work. I guess he made contact with a moth on court somehow?

 

[Nostradamus]

did andy choke again or did kei play great ?

 

[BlueB]

Truth be told, they both choked a bit at various stages... Kei did hit few insane returns, though.

Judy will belt Andy!

 

[NuBas]

I think the final will be Monfils vs Nishikori.

I hope Kei wins his first grand slam, that or he will lose by retiring.

 

[BlueB]

The Moth would burn if he gets too close to king Nole's fire.

I heard the gong but I missed an explanation. What's the story with that?

Its not a freaking gong, its just a glitch in the sound system that causes a loud abrupt feedback noise. Maybe too many cell phones in the stadium.

Both statements are true for the last 1.5 sets

 

[Deleted member 77403]

This is exactly what I was thinking. Chong Li!

 

[joekapa]

 

[Wilhelm]

Yes! Chong Li! Only problem is, Chong Li lost in the finals of the tournament...

In other news: Lendl will probably bring a gong to the next training.

Easily the best thing that has happened to tennis this year. Sorry @Mainad but just can't stand Murray's whining.

 

[Fedole]

That was so surprising but yeah, don't think there are too many unhappy with it If the Guru makes it through we are in for a special final.

Murray could lose a match for the distraction of an ill-disguised fart in ANOTHER tennis stadium to the one he's playing in !
