US Open 2025 R4: Jannik Sinner v. Alexander Bublik

[Open Stance]

Sinner wants to send out a message to everyone left in the draw.

That Bublik hits all his backhands into the net?

 

[jm1972]

Bublik will roll over for Sinner worse than a Serbian player against Djokovic...

 

[dking68]

Sinner already has this in the bag. So boring

He’s into the finals

 

[Vincent-C]

He’s into the finals

easy there, champ

 

[jm1972]

Sinner wants to send out a message to everyone left in the draw.

And the message right now is "I'll stand here and this guy will gift me the match."

 

[L4S10s]

Now is the time to hit Sinner with chips and slices and Bublik decides to go bang bang with him on the baseline like what???

 

[Vincent-C]

And the message right now is "I'll stand here and this guy will gift me the match."

set.

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Welp - that no break streak ended like real quick.....Sinner starting out in ruthless mode.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Bublik's relatively slow movement is being exposed here. He is being constantly rushed.

 

[jm1972]

Classy of Sinner to give him a game

 

[Vincent-C]

The turnaround begins. Serve first in the second, Bubbles.

 

[McGradey]

I love how Bublik has become something of a credible threat these days. And I mean that. People genuinely expect him to go toe-to-toe with a slam-focussed Sinner. It wasn't long ago this guy was universally thought of as a meme player, albeit a brilliantly talented one.

 

[NoleFam]

Yeah, but Tommy doesn't sizzle like Bublik when he's on song. So far, he's in full clown mode. That may have more to do with Sinner coming out with a chip on his shoulder.

Bublik can play ball when he's on or he can play like a clown. Unfortunately, it's been the latter so far, getting broken twice in a row to start the match.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Bublik in four

You can turn on your TV now.

 

[Vincent-C]

You can turn on your TV now.

heh!

 

[RoS]

We are back to the 2004-2007 era and it's WORSE.

Even Prime Federer was pushed sometimes outside Youngdal. Except Alcaraz there is absolutely no ONE who can pose a semblance of challenge to Sinner.

And who is playing the role of third wheel, the new Djokovic ? Djokovic himself ! But he is 38 y.o

Sinner can dominate even MORE than Federer.

 

[McGradey]

You can turn on your TV now.

Haha
I'm watching and this is about what we all used to expect from Bublik.

 

[Vincent-C]

Bubbles fairly close to holding at 1-5.

savvy

 

[ChrisJR3264]

Rough start for Bublik.

Yeah, Novak is kind of like 2005 Agassi.

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

With the way this one is going - all the crowd may have left is Anisimova and BHM.....not a good day for value on a U.S. holiday priced ticket....ouch.

here come the memes lol

 

[Open Stance]

Yes Bublik you are a joke so keep laughing.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Rough start for Bublik.

It’s muglik.

Alcaraz is too good of a player to allow that to happen. If they both make the final, I predict Alcaraz will defeat him.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Hahahaha. Muglick eats a breadstick

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Bublik served up a breadstick in 23 minutes, courtesy of Chef Sinner.

 

[Vincent-C]

Yeah, Novak is kind of like 2005 Agassi.

Grandpa was smacking the ball pretty good last round.

 

[Open Stance]

Any good football games on or is it time to check out Netflix?

 

[ChrisJR3264]

Yes Bublik you are a joke so keep laughing.

I mean the depth sinner is getting off some pretty strong first serves is ridiculously good.

 

[Third Serve]

chat is he cooked?

 

[Bill Lobsalot]

Win or lose Bublik is fun to watch. Sinner is invisible to me, like parsley on a fried seafood platter.

 

[4UTRMoutet]

Hopefully history repeats itself, once Sinner is finished clapping Bublik, Bublik will get him back at Shanghai

 

[jm1972]

I didn't expect anything from this clown and he succeeded to be below my expectations.

 

[Open Stance]

Grandpa was smacking the ball pretty good last round.

Just like Andre was in 05. The Roger - Andre USO matches from 04 and 05 are still some of the best ball striking I’ve ever seen.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Win or lose Bublik is fun to watch. Sinner is invisible to me, like parsley on a fried seafood platter.

His opponent blows.

 

[Vincent-C]

I forgot there's something imp't I need to do right now.

 

[jm1972]

Win or lose Bublik is fun to watch. Sinner is invisible to me, like parsley on a fried seafood platter.

ESL? I think you meant funny. Because seeing a pro miss an underhand serve is the opposite of fun.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Bublikl homie I stayed up for this

 

[NoleFam]

Any good football games on or is it time to check out Netflix?

Netflix it is. I'm getting ready to turn mine on.

chat is he cooked?

Yes.

 

[Vincent-C]

Just like Andre was in 05. The Roger - Andre USO matches from 04 and 05 are still some of the best ball striking I’ve ever seen.

Agreed. Agassi was giving Fred plenty of trouble there (and I'm not particularly an AA fan).

 

[Open Stance]

Sinner is going to destroy Mugsetti as well.

 

[RoS]

Yeah, Novak is kind of like 2005 Agassi.

And 2005 Agassi was pushing more Federer than Djokovic is pushing Sinner

 

[jm1972]

Anyway, going to watch another episode of Dexter Resurrection. See you guys tomorrow

 

[Vincent-C]

> Sinner is invisible to me, like parsley on a fried seafood platter.

I hear ya: "yes, that's very nice.".

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Another rifle shot BH from Sinner......Bam.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Bublik has zero chance to break Sinner. Must go to a TB and pray

 

[Vincent-C]

I'll be sending Bublik a Strongly Worded Letter.

 

[Open Stance]

And 2005 Agassi was pushing more Federer than Djokovic is pushing Sinner

Yep. I’d love to see Roger play Sinner. There would be some serious shot making there.
