Grand Slam - Day 9 - Australian Open

Day 8 and I am so happy that Kostyuk is now in the top 30. And she finally won a match under 3 sets. Coco looks very strong and it is shaping up to be a Coco v Sabe semi-final (which in all reality, is the actual final). Mens wise, the Greek God stopped, Mannerio went to the bakery and we are...

Here is the new daily thread.

Bang Rublev into $1:15!

This is over.

 

[JamisonRun40]

Rublev has taken the crowd out of it.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Why Rubev took this long to start using the angles I’ll never know

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Aussies can't go with players who step up their game.

Yep all suffer the same flaw

 

[Bungeye]

Rublev has taken the crowd out of it.

Not hard to do when playing an Aussie!

 

[YeoShuey]

Does Sinner not like RLA or something? Played almost every match in the day at MCA.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Aussies can't go with players who step up their game.

He’s done well and has pushed Rublev BUT his limitations are on display reason why he is seeded 10th and not 5th and above

 

[Mr Meow]

Why Rubev took this long to start using the angles I’ll never know

He has at times but he's not a player who stays in that zone more than a few games or a set at most.

 

[JamisonRun40]

Albert Martinez looks terrified.

 

[drafthub]

Got to laugh at all the aussie bogans and media carrying on about "the demon" after the usual show of form in the warmups, only to be comfortably dismantled by his first tough opponent in the Grand Slam.

EASY PEASY BABY

De Minaur will never ever win a Grand Slam

But that's ok, because he can still celebrate winning the warmups like he won one.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He’ll get RLA next round. Didnt he play r1 on RLA anyway?

 

[JamisonRun40]

Rublev has moved the ball around a lot Alex has just dropped off a fraction.

Comfortably dismantled? Does comfortably dismantled mean over 5 sets for you?

Bit of the Saints in ADM, start well and collapse in an absolute heap when the going gets tough.

 

[YeoShuey]

Yep sure did but I am wondering if he doesn’t like the court and how that will change in finals.

 

[Bungeye]

His done well to be even be seeded 10th!

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Did Mirra win today

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Imagine he can’t comeback from here lol just thinking of Rafa against Medvedev but Rublev is like playing like a Lion possessed tonight

 

[JamisonRun40]

I guess the organisers don't know who Sinner is. Maybe Cahill needs to step in and request Sinner gets the night match. It would also help Rublev to recover if he gets through. I've been impressed with him over the last two sets. The only thing that would be better if it went to a Super TB.

 

[Mr Meow]

That tongue celebration was epic.

 

[Munich]

Hahaha Bweh

Comfortably dismantled what a load of shit.

He's taken rublev to 5 sets.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]
