Grand Slam US Open 2020

[danstar]

De-minaur takes the early break in the 5th set, both players lifted their games towards the end of the match and its proving to be a good contest

 

[danstar]

double break to deminaur and almost home now in the 5th, wonder when the last time was we had 2 aussie men through to 4th round of a US open

 

[MacMum]

Thinking it was on in the early hours, I didn't bother.....got up around 5am, checked to see results only to see match still going, about to start 5th set. Woohoo!

Well done young Alex.....now to get rid of that silly moustache, doesn't suit him.

 

[danstar]

Who is most likely to knock Serena out of the tournament, need her gone as soon as possible. Hope she hurries up in retiring, can not stand anything about her

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Nice win for the Demon, Karen has plenty of weapons and a huge game.

Felix on absolute fire right now, he's some sort of talent.

 

[matt_897]

Yeah, de Minaur did his thing, played some good counter punching tennis. Touch around the net was impressive too. Got Popsipil in the 4th

 

[JackNah_8]

Felix is such a talented player

 

[JackNah_8]

Next round, Sakkari v Serena .

Rematch, hopefully Sakkari will beat Serena again

 

[pepsi]

Medvedev has had the easiest draw to make the 4th round here. Played genuine no names.

 

[JackNah_8]

Keys is out, retired hurt.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Wow I went to sleep, then Alex won. Wasn’t expecting to wake up to that. Good on him for turning it around. I was super tired and thought he was going to lose soo much for that....

 

[BobbyMorri]

I can't wait til the French Open.

Sick of ESPN and its one court coverage on KAYO. not having the 2nd stadium is very annoying. and lets not talk about the filler and commentators. 7 would be proud.

I prefer ESPN then the french open coverage. ESPN will at least go to different matches at important stages. The world feed of the French just sticks on PC all day.

Got bet365 running with the Kenin match atm.

 

[JackNah_8]

Im using the ESPN app through foxtel so I can at least watch a different match

 

[BobbyMorri]

I think it was god gift which made Kiki one of the Parie 11. Thinking there is going to be a lot of material over the next couple of days.

I know Sakkari won last week against Serena, but I can't see it happening in the grand slam. Then Serena(or Maria) has the winner of Cornet and Pironkova. Which sounds like an easy win on paper, until you remember that Cornet has beaten Serena 3 times(or 5 if you count withdrawals) in her career. And Pironkova has a history of beating Venus at grand slam level.

the other side of the draw is loaded. Azarenka, Mertens, Muchova and Kenin*, who looks like she has beaten the challenge of Jabeur. So, thankfully, Serena should not get a cake walk into the slam final like previous years.

I think Kayo has all courts at the FO. Maybe I am lying to myself. I agree about the world feed which SBS will have.

i prefer to not watch a match on a little screen. i will if I have to.

 

[JackNah_8]

azarenka is looking dangerous.

It would be quite a story if she makes the us open

 

[BobbyMorri]

That was good by Kenin. The best player no one is talking about.

Plays the most consistent player on the tour, Mertens. Yet again, she does what she has to and beats the players she should. go get her Elise.

 

[Roobs321]

3 Canadians and 2 Aussies in the R16, I'll take that.

that last match. Yes, please. I have gone early so hopefully, I haven't cursed it. As good a chance for Thompson and De Minaur to make a 1/4 final.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Omg Thiem has gone into Rafa mode, standing soo far back from the baseline.

So, Jordan, last match on LA. Good for us. It is not before 7am AEST. Have to hope Coric is tired. In a normal match, he should win. once in a lifetime opportunity Jordan.. Coric in 4 for me, but I am a shocking tipper. also, hoping for the best.

Also, confused that they put Martic and Putinseva on CC. Crap time I guess but over some of the other games......
