Tiafoe is not good.

If only I could be this awful at anything...c'est la vie

At the end, what matters is win. Tiafoe has reached QF and has a good chance of reaching semis as well

As an Aussie I'm rooting for Alexei, but after reviewing both their matches coming in, I like Frances to win. Popyrin still hasn't made much progress in tactics, court positioning or groundstrokes.

Tiafoe should be able to soak it and grind through. Disappointed he dropped Ferreira as coach. Wonder when that happened - haven't watched any tennis in ages.

Now he’s got Grigolo in the quarters. Perfect.

I like Frances to go all the way now.

Tiafoe is too muggy and too clowny to win a slam or reach a final.

That thread was deleted by Mods I assume.

Think his volleys are okay but his approaches are really bad.

Roddick like, even.

Through to his 2nd USO semi!!!

 

[hades11]

Congrats to him but this level won't be enough for Fritz.

 

[atatu]

It's going to depend on who serves better.

 

[Nostradamus]

It's going to depend on who serves better.

Tiafoe is not good. Fritz owns him like he's cheap practice partner. this will be boring semifinal beatdown

 

[Juice4080]

The level he's currently playing at right now is definitely high enough to win him a slam. The question is will he be able to maintain it for 2 more matches. If he can you are possible looking at the champ. His 2nd serve is much improved as his ROS. FH is not too shabby. Stamina and fitness is great. Right now there's not really anything to exploit.

Back to 16 in the world
A cool million in prize money for semis

Not good

 

[mikej]

Also they should agree to play a winner take all set and rest

This is the best chance for a US man to win a GS in countless years, cannot be battling 5 sets before Sinner

FTFY

 

[mikej]

FTFY

entirely possible, they both look to be in pretty good form right now, will be a heck of a QF

 

[mikej]

FTFY

next time you don't have to fix with wrong info, FWIW

 

[legcramp]

next time you don't have to fix correct with wrong info, FWIW

haha, Sinner indeed played great against an in form Medvedev.

well, I'm not counting any chickens, a lot more work to be done

but maybe ask Fritz how easy this match is, as he steps to the line at 4-6,7-5,0-2

The way the commentators are talking, he's the second coming of a better version of Federer and Djokovic.

They're not having the same flights of verbal fancy for the other American player on the same court.

Not today...

you're seeing what you want to see - i'm not hearing any such pro-Tiafoe / anti-Fritz sentiment from the commentators - Tiafoe is the underdog, he's stepped up and is currently winning, and they're giving him some deserved props for doing so *shrug*

 

[mikej]

and this is why i say they should've agreed to play a set - sinner was going to win anyway, but little chance these guys come back form this 5-setter to beat a guy who kicked his feet up hours earlier

 

[Bhagi Katbamna]

Mary Carrillo said that he(Tiafoe) lights up Arthur Ashe court and his brightness spreads to the crowd. Or something like that. Kind of nauseating.

 

[legcramp]

Tiafoe played so great tennis on those couple sets he won. Pretty good match until the end where it was a one-sided affair.
