Ask @Lleytonstation he will explain to you

I need no explanation.

After early exits in Miami and Monte Carlo I wonder why Zverev has come good in Madrid? Altitude and conditions??

The fast court suits him

It would seem logical that Zverev defeated Rafa, that he would have the confidence and ability to get a win over Thiem. Well, that is exactly what happen today in the semifinals in Madrid!

Very logical*, not very logic.

RoS must be French.

Zverev surely can be deadly at Wimbledon with the serve he possesses needs to improve his net game and a serious contender there

Zverev look pretty good in doubles! He and his doubles partner I think might still be in the doubles tournament too? No sure, but Zverev is improving in his volleys for sure!

Update: Zverev is in the Semifinals in men's doubles, and Finals in Singles in the 2021 Madrid Open! LOL!

Thiem should only focus on HC and Grass from now on

Never been more clear. Time for Thiem The Lawn Mower.

You will drive yourself crazy trying to rationalize Zedraffe results. He is a Faucet, not a Street, running hot and cold all the time.

You mention Miami; that’s where he booked his most recent stay at the WATLYNM Lodge and he did it WASLTNTS (win a set lose the next two sets) style vs Four U’s. That was after crushing it in Acapulco with zero sets dropped.

If Nadal were playing Thiem today, this thread would have much more than 5 pages even with Thiem sucking.

Bad comedy? Reference to Galvatron killing Star Scream?

LOL, this time not intentionally.

Zverev and Puetz just withdrew. Apparently Puetz has a calf injury.

Zverev is the best player in the world when his head works, and barely a top100 player when it doesn't, I think it's really that simple. If he ever sorts his head out he'll win a few slams

No one cares about players outside the big 3. Even Nadal in the first 2 sounds against no-names like Alcaraz and Popyrin got 4 pages. Thiem and Zverev are top 5 players in a SF and get 5 pages. That tells you all you need to know about what people think about them!

Zed is the best player in the world when he doesn't choke.

He has been generous, Thiem, Medvedev and Djovak can all thank him for their recent success.

lol this is how I look at it as well in a way. So talented but such a head case that he’ll probably never reach what his potential is/was
