Grand Slam Australia Open - Day 5

[LukeParkerno1]

Based on what? Last time Nadal beat Zverev on a hard court was 2017 and Zverev has improved tremendously since then.

In my opinion, Zverev will smack Nadal and may cause some trouble for Medvedev.

Based on the fact Zverev doesn’t win big games, Nadal in 3 or 4.

Badosa v Kostyuk in desperate need of a clash guernsey

pet hate

Badosa is looking really good this summer.

Ostapenko seems to have confidence as well. Ostapenko is so hot and cold, but when she is hot, watch out.

Edit: as I type that, double fault.....

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Badosa is looking really good this summer.

I think she could win the tournament tbh.

 

[JackNah_8]

Sakkari is through to the next round. She's playing well..

 

[Chism]

Gee I am going to be torn tonight. As much as I want Barty to win I also want the most beautiful woman on the circuit to stay in regarding Camilla Giorgi and she is drop dead stunning.

 

[tigs2010]

Classic Monfils all over the place lol

 

[JackNah_8]

Badosa can't finish this match

Thankfully they are competing in a tennis tournament and not a Miss Universe contest.

Forza Berrettini!

That, right there, was the turning point.

Alcaraz started like a house on fire. Now he has burnt down his house and is struggling with the consequences.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Momentum all with Berretini atm.

Monfils in the driver's seat against a higher seed.

Stosur/Zhang win a tight first set.

 

[Chism]

Camilla is not a bad player but not in Ash’s class. In saying that this is womens tennis and anything can happen.

 

[JackNah_8]

Alcaraz has dropped off though Berrettini is playing better.

Badosa v Kostyuk was a good match. Badosa must be relieved she had a few opportunities to win

 

[AdelaideGT]

Camilla is not a bad player but not in Ash’s class.

She is a great ball-striker on her day though and I'm sure she will hit quite a few amazing winners tonight - which is good for Ash as she prepares to (likely) face Osaka in R4.

 

[BobbyMorri]

What a backhand slice by Alcaraz on breakpoint. Wasnt a "winner" but won the point and the break.

really enjoying it. Shame I have to go out soon

 

[BobbyMorri]

this is a HUGE TB

No man has come back from 2 sets down yet at the Aus open.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

How many Greeks are still in the tournament.. the Greek.. Kokk.. and the Greek.. Kyrgios.. are out.. Sakkari and Tsitsipas.. the only Greeks left?

 

[AdelaideGT]

Berretini does a Houdini in that second set.

Sakkari & Tsitsipas are pretty much the only Greeks in top events.

The Special K's are Australians. May as well call Kyrgios Malaysian if you're gonna call him Greek.

re?

're' is the 'siiiiu' of these threads.
