Haven't watched De Minaur much overall but underwhelming tonight to say the least.
Playing way too conservative, doesn't really try to hit winners, just uses his speed to get to balls and get it back into play and hope the opponent hits unforced errors.
Kyrgios is easily levels above him as the best Aussie.

They still don’t have too many contenders though I guess there’s Kenin on the women’s but that’s it. They SHOULD be producing a lot they have goodness knows how many players in the pool

That’s all Di Minaur has. Never has had weapons.

De Minaur needs to return the ball around the baseline otherwise he is in trouble. Against Fiogrini types, he just doesn’t have a weapon to be proactive.
No chance. The tournament can run effectively without fans, whilst keeping players in a bubble.

What happened with the tennis now? Can’t they have the rest of the tournament now?

Yep. Played ATP Cup with Tsitsipas.

it is of no concern
he tested negative when he left Australia on 9th of Feb. Arrived in Doha afterwards. South Africa also uses the rapid covid test, which likes to give false positives and is not as reliable as the one we use. (but quicker)

Perhaps but would not be surprised if Andrews takes the “we have to treat this case like it was acquired in our country” approach.
'Actually the worry is either he's caught in transit ( unlikely ) or he has caught in the community - This is why I preferred the 'bubble' as opposed to quarantine and then into the community - Remember players have been out of quarantine for two weeks.
Edit - Found out he left Australia on February 9 means the transit/Doha is an option.

Meh...he’s gone home tested negative before he left.
Can we get on with enjoying a good tournament rather than wanting to stop play for every minor thing...

I’m not wanting to stop play. I just know what our government is like down here.

Yep it’s a bunch of overprotective campaigners that are useless. There’s onlya week left, deal with it then. So happy with how NSW have gone about it.

Were they that disappointing? Both are honest triers with no weapons, that’s a 3rd to 4th round at absolute best in a grand slam.
Millman is ranked 38 and managed to lose to a player ranked 80, while De Minaur who is ranked 5 places behind Fognini, should not have been comprehensively outplayed in straight sets.

Millman is solid but he’s exactly that. Get a bloke with weapons and he’s toast. Di Minaur is the same and Fognini has been as high as 7 in the world. He’s a MUCH better player with more weapons. Only way De Minaur was winning was if Fabio hit 50 unforced errors
