    Feel like Andy has had rotten draw luck since coming back.

    I always laugh to myself. The draw spits out qualifier vs qualifier and gives us Murray/Tiafoe

    I think I have to say Agassi. Oddly, I also liked Edberg too but wouldn't say he was a fav.

    Loved Sampras, and then was all in on the Roddick train for a long while.

    McEnroe when I was a youngster, loved the yelling. Then Pete. First woman I loved was Hingis, you could probably guess why.

    Just made a big bet on Tiafoe. I wanted to see how he would serve in his first game of the 2nd set after choking the 1st set. Think he was still the better player.

    These two are playing at such an intense pace. I dont know how the old body of Murray can continue playing at this level in this match

    The more breaks Tiafoe saves, Murray going to fall off the cliff soon

    Betting more on Foe. Hes in the right mindset right now.

    Murray has to go for broke this tiebreaker. I just dont see how physically he can hold up

    Murray is going to fold in this 3rd set. Blowing that set.

    Alright back at it Foe. Murray has nothing on his serve left.
     
  29. Wendel Clark

    That was a massive hold by Tiafoe. 2 bad errors to start and then a great down the line shot where Andy couldn't move. Murray is done after that

    No, it's a fair question - apparently we overtook the US a few weeks ago. Nationally we are 85% first dose & 69% fully vaccinated but there are parts of the country that are way higher. I think Canberra is something like 99%/82%. :shocked:

    He's going to have to. The latest from the federal and state governments is no jab, no entry. Simple as that. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he's too stubborn to go and do it.

    Svitolina bounced this morning at Abama tournament. Figure she entered it hoping to sneak some points, it's a pretty weak field considering how deep the women are.

    Very weak field. Everyone in Moscow.

    Giorgi had a wild match there yesterday. Threw her racket, got a 2 game penalty :roll: still won

    I worked with some Brits who only vacation there. They said the place is absolutely beautiful, cheap as hell and just a nice quiet getaway. It also helps explain why like 5 people have been in stands all week.

    Yeah, that was the other thing that consistently pissed me off about them. They could get there for less than $200 for a couple. I don't think I could fly to Pittsburgh and back for under $200.

    Her dad apparently made an ass of himself during the match and was the reason for at least one of the penalties. Shocking, I know.

    He was the favorite yesterday against Opelka, which kind of shocked me. It also tempted me, but I didn't bet it because I wanted nothing to do with watching that match.

    I just bet Wang to beat Cornet.

    She must have started slow but from what Ive seen, she is dominating the points

    And after the first 1.5 games of the 3rd set I now see how she was down 6-1 4-1. Just so many errors
