STANIMAL!!!!!!!!!!

[nuraman00]

Just finished watching the 2 Men's SFs, the Women's Finals, and the Men's Finals, all today!

Going to watch the trophy ceremony, then game 2 of the NBA Finals.

Will post more detailed thoughts, probably tomorrow, on the FO.

Great 2nd week, lots of good matches.

It did suck that the Djokovic-Murray SF was split on 2 days, but fortunately NBC showed the end of the 4th set, and the 5th set, after the Women's Finals.

I guess a lesson learned for me, is that if I'm ever out for the weekend, and will miss the SF and Finals of a major, record all rebroadcasts of the SF and Finals.

NBC picked up the 4th set of Djokovic-Murray at 6-5 in the 4th set after the Women's Finals, so I missed what happened between games 3-3, and 6-5. Obviously I wouldn't have known that they would have played the 4th set BEFORE the Women's Finals, on a suspended match from the previous day, starting at 4am PST. But maybe if I would have recorded rebroadcasts of the SFs on Tennis Channel on 6/6 (I had already recorded them for 6/5), maybe I would have picked up the full conclusion of the match. I wouldn't have known that the match was resumed from the previous day, but there's a chance I could have recorded the resumption of the SF on a Tennis Channel re-air on 6/6, which re-airs the SFs late on 6/6 Saturday night.

I almost had the Djokovic-Murray spoiled for me, but fortunately I fast forwarded past the NBC Sports Desk news update quickly enough, to not known for sure who won. So I could watch the NBC remainder of the 4th, then the 5th, with full suspense, after the Women's Finals broadcast.

@bksballer89 , did you like this stat? Especially how only Wawrinka, Berdych, and Tsonga have beaten the Big Four at majors.

Yeah man that's a pretty cool statistic

 

[nuraman00]

I also wanted to see between Tsonga and Berdych, why have they beaten the Big Four at majors, but not recorded 3 career wins?

Here's what I found out.

Tsonga has only beaten Murray 2x. 14-2 head-to-head.

Djokovic has a 25-2 head-to-head vs. Berdych.
