Roland Garros R16: Novak Djokovic vs. Francisco Cerundolo

[DSH]

Meds start to kick in.

How fast!

 

[ojo rojo]

Will he ever shut up

Not until the big dirt nap

 

[Kralingen]

No chance unless the Djokovic injury is serious, and I'm not speculating on whether or not he's really injured

Clearly there is a chance though or else Cerundolo wouldn’t have gotten to 11 BPs?

 

[Krish0608]

Okay, lets do a TTW favorite activity. How do we spin the word mug into a player. In this specific case, we have some options:

The prefix option Mugundolo : Now this sounds easy on the ears, has a nice ring to it.

The suffix option Cerundomug: While may not sound as crispy as Mugundolo, this name has a certain gravitas about it. We think that he might be a good player… and he ends up being a mug. This is my pick.

The mid option: Cermugdolo. Frankly pretty mid. I don’t like it.

Nadal USO 17 vs Federer USO 15 10 match series?

You have just agreed to play my games by doing that.

Djokovic USO 2015 vs Roddick USO 2003 10 match series?

 

[DSH]

After he loses the tie-break, how many games will Cerundolo win in the third set?

Djokovic USO 2015 vs Roddick USO 2003 10 match series?

Roddick 10 golden matches, ask @NatF

 

[Bambooman]

He does look a bit like De Niro

Mo lay

Roddick himself would probably say something like Novak 9-1 or 8-2

It doesn't have to be mug. Clownundolo has a pretty good ring to it too.

The third option is better.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko needs to maintain this high first serve percentage

 

[RS]

Roddick himself would probably say something like Novak 9-1 or 8-2

Roddick would say 10-0 Djokovic. I am convinced 100%

 

[Kralingen]

Djokovic USO 2015 vs Roddick USO 2003 10 match series?

Probably still clearly Djokovic on the slower surface tbh. 5-5 leaning Roddick 6-4 on the 03 surface.

Franchoko

 

[Subway Tennis]

Bit of both, Cerundolo worked his way into the contest more late in the first.

Agree. That last game in the first set he was probably unlucky not to break. That was a sign of things to come, with Cerundolo creating chances and not necessarily capitalising.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Djokovic hanging on by serve dominance.

In rallies he is clearly not matching.

 

[Krish872007]

Absolutely terrible time to throw in a DF.
Crappy long FH hands 2 SPs to Cerundolo

 

[NoleFam]

Cerendulo is playing much better this set.

 

[GabeT]

Roddick would say 10-0 Djokovic. I am convinced 100%

Roddick recognized several times that post 2010 Novak was simply on a different level compared to what Roddick was capable of

Ceruntaza (taza is mug in Español)

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

2 BPs

 

[Carax]

Now or never, Francisco.

 

[RS]

Lol finish this set please

I actually prefer the mid option

 

[TennisFan3]

Nerves of steel Novak. Saves BP.

 

[jss]

Ok, that was the warm up, now we play a regular best of 3

 

[NatF]

HOW MANY TIMES!?!

 

[Kralingen]

Finally he does it

7-5 Dolo! We have a match

 

[Carax]

13th time is the charm.

 

[DSH]

Finally Cerundolo!

 

[Hamnavoe]

Vamos. 1/13 baby

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

1 set all! Well deserved by Cerundolo! He was knocking on the door all set.

Djoko going crazy!

 

[tennisjedi]

Cerundolo converts a break point. Amazing scenes.

 

[Krish872007]

Terrible final game, 1 set all.
The Argentine didn't really do anything special to break there - played a poor, passive point. Djokovic just missed at the wrong moment

 

[nolefam_2024]

Djokovic isn't losing 3 sets to this plug, lets get real

1 set down.

Let's see.

 

[Subway Tennis]

Djokovic USO 2015 vs Roddick USO 2003 10 match series?

You’re like a mad scientist with these. You’ve picked 2 players with one commonality (Serve dominance) who are otherwise completely different and yet literally perfect matchups for each other. It’s brain bending…..

 

[Zachary]

Finally!!!

 

[Winners or Errors]

All even, 1-1. Can't watch, don't have the stream - so is Djoker actually injured? Curious, as I am reading the thread.

 

[WarriorRafa]

Mugdolo finally got gifted the break would have choked otherwise

 

[RS]

Probably still clearly Djokovic on the slower surface tbh. 5-5 leaning Roddick 6-4 on the 03 surface.

We need as many as those Roddick on 03 surface takes as possible.

 

[TennisFan3]

Wow - on the 13th try, he BREAKS.
BO3 coming up. Moral victory for Cerundolo. Winning a set vs slam Novak is no mean feat.

 

[ND-13]

LOL, I told correctly Novak has to give the break.

 

[Razer]

If Cerundolo can do this to Djokovic then SInner/Alcaraz will do much more.

 

[The_Order]

Peak Djok struggling with Cerundolo now...

 

[ibbi]

Dude should put his hat back on.

 

[TennisFan3]

Finally he does it

7-5 Dolo! We have a match

No we don't. Novak will raise his level, and stop sleepwalking.

 

[Sentinel]

Wow - on the 13th try, he BREAKS.
BO3 coming up. Moral victory for Cerundolo. Winning a set vs slam Novak is no mean feat.

 

[Jonas78]

 

[Winners or Errors]

He's complaining that the court is too slippery because they aren't sweeping it frequently enough. That's how he tweaked his knee.

Yeah, and we know how much Djokovic likes slippery clay courts.
