ATP ATP 2022

[BobbyMorri]

The season rolls on. Shock horror that I am making an ATP thread 2022 before a WTA thread, but Juan Martin Del Potro is about to take to the court in what could be his last match ever in front of an enduring sold-out home crowd in Argentina. Got some stuff to do today, but will be keeping a close eye on this match when I can.

 

[BobbyMorri]

JMDP broke Delbonis in the first game but since then, it has been all Delbonis. 6-1 quite quickly.

This will be over quickly. JM struggling but this isn't about the result really.

 

[Gibbsy]

Delpo breaks and then gets broken back again, just like the first set.

 

[BobbyMorri]

Its great that Del is playing against a very good friend.

JMDP has a wild card in Rio. Reckon that will be that after that tournament. The guy can't move well at all.

 

[BobbyMorri]

And there are the tears. Del probably serving his last service match in Argentina(and perhaps career)

such a loveable giant. and the crowd are going nuts

[BobbyMorri]

Delbonis, you big meanie. Stop drop-shotting him. The crowd is whistling him every time he does it

Del Potro can't move off the baseline. Delbonis wins but big hug at the end between the 2 players.

 

[BobbyMorri]

The end.

 

[John Smith92]

Sad moment. 2 horrible injuries derailed what could have been one of the great careers.

 

[BobbyMorri]

I miss the Davis Cup

Del Potro was at the level of Murray - Reckon he could have won 3 to 5 Grand Slams.

I reckon he was better

After that Wrist injury, which basically meant he had no backhand, he still was reached a slam final and #3 in the world.

Would have been something to see how the big 3 would have combated someone with that power on the forehand.

Felix continuing his good start to the season in Rotterdam.

 

[BobbyMorri]

And that is why we have stupid super duper match tie breaks.

FAA is in the final against the Greek. Can he finally win a title

 

[yaco55]

Watched two of FAA's matches - Never seen him hit the ball better - It will be mental if he loses.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Really hope Felix can finally break his title drought tonight.

 

[John Smith92]

Exceptional start to the year for Felix. Monkey finally off the back and no reason he can't push on to reach top 4 by the end of the season.

 

[Gigantic]

The writing is on the wall for FAA to have a breakout year

 

[BobbyMorri]

The in-form player atm

Wouldn't be surprised if he wins one of Miami/IW

Really hope Felix can finally break his title drought tonight.

Woooooooo ella Felix

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Tsitsipas tuna.

Good win by Millman over Cressy at Delray Beach

Been a while for him. Feels like every Aussie man but duckworth had the worst year you could imagine without injury last season.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Millman beat Giron 6-3 7-6 and is through to the quarter finals now where he will play Dimitrov... GO JOHNNY!!!

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Millman just beat Dimitrov in straights sets, 6-4 6-4

Will now play Opelko in the Semis.
