Monte-Carlo Masters R3: Novak Djokovic vs. Lorenzo Musetti

[DSH]

Momento della verità per Lorenzo.
Lo raggiungerà?

 

[robyrolfo]

Omg, why are people so weird? He stomped and snapped a racket like a toothpick. Someone please call the police and get him a citation.

Nobody is calling it a crime, but it's bad form in front of his own kid. That's all.

His kid probably forgot all about it yet snowflakes here still crying, what does that tell us?

You think using the term "snowflake" somehow makes you seem tough? You think it makes others seem weak? What does it tell us that all you can do is come in here and posture with some pathetic name calling?

Scary how easily you can adapt the Apu taking a bullet / weird nerds / Elon meme to Djoker fans.

Seriously, what is with these people? The delusion is scary.

He is fine.

Translation: Back on the track and back on the ground! Let's go!

I thought "pista" meant more "court" when talking about tennis.

So? 2k usd is like 2 usd for him. Trust me I don't think you have to worry about his son.

Yeah, because super wealthy kids with narcissistic a rude parents usually turn out great, right?

 

[Chanwan]

I can’t believe my +900 Musetti bet might actually hit

when did you bet though? Prior to the match it was much less than that (where I place my bets)

 

[theSHAMOO]

lucky aces

 

[TheNachoMan]

I hope that arm injury is nothing serious.

 

[Terenigma]

If Djokovic does lose here, this is a HUGE chance for Medvedev to get his first clay title.

 

[The Guru]

U sweating Kralingen?

 

[Rattie]

Two match points gone

 

[Krish0608]

Musetti choking hard from 40-15

 

[Chanwan]

40-15 is the most dangerous lead vs. Novak (heard it from a friend)

 

[tennisjedi]

Musetti's palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy.

 

[naturalexponent]

Musetti's palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy.

There's vomit on his sweater already, Mamma Musetti

 

[Krish0608]

Gotta give it to Novak there. GOAT pass at the right time. BP.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Mugsetti needs to close this here.

 

[The Guru]

Djokovic's FH so cringe rn

 

[Kralingen]

Gotta give it to Novak there. GOAT pass at the right time. BP.

I am getting 40-15 flashbacks now

 

[TheNachoMan]

Musetti choking hard from 40-15

It’s a one handed backhand thing.

 

[Krish0608]

3rd MP for the Moose

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Just when the world needed @ACE of Hearts most… he vanished.

“Hold your damn serve you damn MUG” is echoing around the Monte Carlo country club.

Jajajajajaa

 

[TheNachoMan]

Just let him win and get on a plane to Madrid. This has been dreadful

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Mugsetti is really trying hard to mug this up.

 

[naturalexponent]

Chooooookes

 

[Kralingen]

There hasn’t been a single clean winner this game. One ace, 8 consecutive UEs

 

[Krish0608]

Lmao. These kids just can't seem to close it against Novak.

 

[Terenigma]

Surely he won't let a 4th get away from him... Surely...

 

[Kralingen]

Djokovic luckily is ready to give Musetti the match despite Lore not wanting to take it at all

 

[naturalexponent]

Lmao. These kids just can't seem to close it against Novak.

You can literally see them shaking when they're serving for the match. SMH.

 

[Legend of Borg]

Is that sleeve a fashion statement from Djoko?

 

[BeatlesFan]

Musetti holds on and is able to serve it out. Well done to the Italian, I thought he'd fold.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

From mugsetti to musetti. Is this his best win ever?

 

[DSH]

Lorenzo, Lorenzo, Lorenzo!

 

[TheNachoMan]

It’s over. Thank God.

Hopefully he can get that arm healed up and play better in the best tournament.

 

[The Fedfather]

40-15 is a trauma reserved for Federer fans only

 

[Hitman]

Honestly, Musetti deserved to win this one. Djokovic was bad since last round.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Well played by Musetti, congrats to him. However, awful match from Djokovic, so many bad UEs.

 

[Kralingen]

I’m going straight to the Gucci store today

Grazie Lore. But mostly Grazie Nole for playing probably your worst match in years

 

[Legend of Borg]

Musetti holds on and is able to serve it out. Well done to the Italian, I thought he'd fold

Well, he kinda did.

Djok's form was disgusting.

 

[Chanwan]

Always hard to put Novak away, but that lost serve did the job. Novak, as always, gracious at the net.

Wonderful to see Muzetti get such a big win after struggling all year

 

[legcramp]

Well done Musetti, deserved it.

 

[Terenigma]

Good to know when Djokovic is possibly injured, In the worst possible form getting broken more than Mr Glass from unbreakable that Mussetti is strong enough to flop over the finish line.

 

[UnforcedTerror]

It was clear since yesterday that Musetti would win but I have to admit Djokovic played worse than I expected.

 

[Rattie]

Yes! Well done Lorenzo for getting over that invisible line. Excellent result. Awful match though lol

 

[BeatlesFan]

I am not a fan of shedding tears after a third round win, even if it's over Novak. This is part of the problem of next gen. Celebrate when you win the tournament, not a third round, regardless of your opponent. Tiafoe does the same thing when he beats a big scalp in early rounds. Maybe that's being cynical, but sheesh.

 

[naturalexponent]

I've seen ISIS beheading videos with higher quality than this match

lol fuhhhh

 

[brewcrew]

Hopefully this will give the kid some confidence.

 

[MeatTornado]

If Djokovic does lose here, this is a HUGE chance for Medvedev to get his first clay title.

Medvedev winning a clay Masters before Thiem

i NEED it

 

[TheAssassin]

Loss isn't too surprising given the performance. From a set and a break up however... I thought those kinds of escapes are reserved for RBA only.

On to munching a 250 we go lol...

 

[I Am Finnish]

Egg is such a mug

 

[bluetrain4]

Musetti finishes it. I'll have to watch the replay tonight.

 

[naturalexponent]

Agree. Although it completely explains why they have such a hard time putting him away. Ascribe way too much to facing him.
