Grand Slam Australian Open - Day 3

[Acinath]

I thought tennis would be dead to me post Fed but it's still kicking. Life goes on.



Yep against Fed 2020 here. He was rubbing them on himself to make them wet.

I can't speak for anything else on Millman. He is in the Hewitt clique, perhaps a reason? Though so is ADM.

Not sure.

The both have to be in the Hewitt clique, neither of them have the weapons that the top 10-20 players have, but have both done a great job with Hewitt in getting the absolute best out of themselves.

I don't know which coach of Sharapova you're talking about but I have my own eyeballs.

Unfortunately the eyeballs of people in the crowd don't write the rules..

You can link as many articles as you wish - doesn't take away that Millman was rubbing balls all over himself.

Do we have any up and coming guns in junior tennis like in the mould of Alcaraz?

All our top men tennis players seem just to be journeymen

I like Demon but dosent have enough weapons to be in the top 10

lmao - players like Nadal or Medvedev right now wipe their sweat-drenched hair (snd in Rafa's case his butt) and then handle the ball before serving.

Anyway - hope you and your eyeballs have a good night..

We have nobody outstanding - male or female - in junior ranks. Nowhere near the level of an Alcaraz, a Gauff or that 15yo Chinese lad.

Hopefully some promising 10-12yr olds out there are inspired by the thought of the 2032 Olympics.

Kyrgios not good enough for you?

C'mon handling and holding a ball is not the same as rubbing it to change its surface.

Good grief

Shrieking and grunting isn't in the rulebook either but when used to put off an opponent it's labelled questionable.

The “Cinderella stories” coming to an end on two courts.

No surprise with Raducanu.

Who's the other?

Shirley Murray v Kokki is the RLA night session. Shirley.

Millman and Kubler. Channel 9 said, “Can they continue their Cinderella stories?” After 1 win each, unreal lol

Tennis Australia doing a very poor job of growing talent it seems

 

[Munich]

No mention of the Aussie qualifier in here who just went down in 5.

 

[JamisonRun40]

Gosh I wish I could take a day off work tomorrow. I'm liking that section of the draw a lot better. I think Murray has a big chance against Kokkanakis. I wonder if that will be the night match on RLA or MC?

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

So which Aussies left in the men's side Demon,Koky who else?

They bought Tomljanovic and wonder how they lured de Minaur back from Spain.

The other home growns have been lacklustre compared to Kyrgios though he barely plays a season.

Obviously Barty is the outlier!

 

[Drummond]

Surprised Hijikata doesn’t get more hype, the guy can play. Still very young.

Way better than other scrubs.

Although that overhead was as scrub as it comes.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Millman aint beating Med in long rallys why does he keep playing the same way change it up make med come up to the net

 

[Munich]

John cocky Millman for another set?

And Popy.

 

[doggies ftw]

John cocky Millman for another set?

You’re a weird unit, imagine taking so much offence at someone as irrelevant as the milkman

Agreed. Technically very sound too.

Loves to hype the crowd up.

 

[Drummond]

Who’s this commentator who creams his pants every time anyone gets even 0-15 against serve? It’s really annoying.
