Kyrgios in a huge hole in the 1st set. Down 5-1 in the tiebreak

 

[bksballer89]

Kyrgios dropped the 1st set against 17 year old Denis Shapovalov. The Wimbledon Junior champ

Why isn't Tsonga playing? He won in 2014.

@Lucas, who is that in your avatar? I'm not sure.

I like how the dates of the tourney are in the thread title. It's a good quick reference.

Pretty sure that is is Sock.

Interested to see what Querrey does

Thought he'd have a bye, but I dont see it. Odd.

 

[bksballer89]

Interesting that Sock & Kyrgios are playing doubles together

Sock - Him, Tsonga, Thiem, Monfils, & Pouille are some of my favorite players so my avatar will usually switch between them.

Hi, tennis fans

Interesting that Sock & Kyrgios are playing doubles together

I think the Isner/Zverev combo is just as interesting. One is 6'6" and the other is 6'10"

Hi, tennis fans

Welcome - That's why I'm here, I couldn't find another one on the internet.

I used to go to the tennis warehouse forums for my fix, but that is a little overwhelming. I just go there to figure out what I should string my raqcuet with these days.

it was maybe me and another dude at the forum I came from. Everyone else just wanted to talk about the hot tennis chicks...which isn't bad, but not what I was looking for.

We had an even more active one at CBS a few years ago before they slimmed down. This one could still use more faces so spread the word.

Krygios loses to a newb, LOL. Although that kid won big at the junior level this year, it is still a huge upset.

No other upsets. Querrey continues to pull through

I can't get behind Krygios. Maybe I am getting too old to appreciate the young, brash players anymore

Do you have a favorite match by each of them?
