[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

VS.

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Match scheduled around 1.00pm local time (following WTA match between Lepchenko and Flipkens)
Gasquet won their encounter in Cincinnati 2 weeks ago.

63 63 62 Gasquet. Too good for him.

VS.

LMAO, I read the thread title as “US v. Kokkinakis”. All the crazy weather and Kyrgios news must be getting to me...:lol:

What a bright smile and a handsome face -- this is the face of united Eurasia of the 21st century. Talking about Safin, of course.

The photoshopped guy looks like TTW poster Phil.

I chose Gasquet in 5 only because I think he still has the edge, but pulling for Kok...

I want the young guys to start winning.

 

[Slice'n'dice]

Gasquet been exemplary at taking out the young guns as of late (with the exception of Jack Sock in Washington) and been in pretty good form this year, reckon he takes this in three of four. More likely three.

Pity that “three of four, more likely three” is not listed as an option in the poll.

I share the same sentiment. Gasquet is having quite a good year and should win here, but I would be much glad if Kokki takes this.

 

[Sysyphus]

One backhanded pimp slap coming up.

 

[Russeljones]

Gasquet in 5 so that I will be spared the awful attempts at wordplay.

Once again, another big 1st round match-up; why is Chung/Duckworth also a 1st round match? Seems the young guns (a couple of Aussies included) are getting rooked.

Kokkinakis with the break - Wake up Ritchie

 

[GabeT]

So the groups of very vocal Aussie tennis fans dressed in yellow and green (which I always associate with Brazil) is a relatively new phenomenon or has it been going on for a while?

They have always been there. Watch any aussie's match at a slam and you'll notice the fellas

By the way, Kokkinakis is banging Gasquet. Sorry to tell you that, frenchie.

Going on for a good while.

Richard will pound Kokk hard, just wait and see.

in Australia for a while, in the rest of the world not sure

The earliest I've seen them is the 2003 Davis Cup but I would wager a lot longer than that (knowing Australia's attitude to sports).

 

[heninfan99]

nice thread. There have been a number of upsets so far I hope this isn't another. :-/

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Gasquet not looking good so far he'd better step up in the second set

 

[romeo8880]

Will gasquet retire if he loses to this guy?

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Playing much better right now 3-0 Gasquet in the second set

 

[Crayola Oblongata]

Nike did him wrong, that look is such a disaster.

 

[Sysyphus]

Dickie backhand zoning right now. Such a sight.

 

[Underhand]

Is Kyrgios in the stands?

 

[Sysyphus]

Okay, extremely puerile stuff coming up here, but think about it:

This match is Kokk vs. Dick, and Dickie is sponsored by none other than Le Coq

Very phallocentric, this match.

Think about it

 

[Crayola Oblongata]

Diviiiiiiinnnneeeeee bh

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

that BH passing shot!! that's what the crowd wants to see

 

[rainingaces]

We are sorry for the delay but normal service has now been resumed.

Nike did wrong all year though

Indeed, Le Kokk sportif, nice obversation

You're not wrong there. Does feel like each year it gets worse.

Kohls in tiebreak

 

[merwy]

Kokki looks pretty good there. I never watch him so I thought I was watching the Gasquet-Kyrgios match and the scorebord had the wrong names Didn't know he had such a big forehand.

This obviously had to come from the poster who has Herr Sigmund as his avatar.

They started in 1997 when Rafter won the US Open. Rafter gave a buncch of australian guys who cheered him on in every match free tickets, all the way to the final. Then John Newcombe, who was the Davis Cup captain at the time, invited them to cheer on the next Davis Cup tie.

Then the fanatics became an actual company, where you can buy tickets and sit in a big group together, as long as you cheer on the australians and wear green and gold

[RNadal]

Kokk back on banging stuff. Zverev and Nishioka also winning. Bamos, nueva generation!

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

4-4 in the third set...money time Allez Richie

 

[DJTaurus]

Someone to shut down the guy below

 

[Crayola Oblongata]

Oh eff this.

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Looks like Gasquet is on his way out

 

[Deleted member 740774]

Oh no! Kokk suffering from cramps pretty bad

 

[romeo8880]

Richard has him right where he wants him.

 

[JRAJ1988]

Come on Kokk.

 

[RNadal]

Oh no! Kokk suffering from cramps pretty bad

I stopped watching it. How is the Kokk? Will he get banged?

 

[pepka]

Another clown...
