Kyrgios is still only 23. Hopefully he figure it out soon. I'm not sure if he ever made a QF at a major yet.

Feels like he's been around for a while now

Looks like I was wrong. Made the QF at 2015 Aussie Open

Nice to see Millman made it this far. Caught some of his match on Tuesday vs some 17 year old American who looked like he was 12. Didn't think he would still be playing on labor day. This is now officially the deepest run he made at a GS

Zverev in trouble vs Kohlschreiber.

Down a break in the 3rd after splitting the first 2 sets

This is what I hate about ESPN.

Zverev and Kohlschreiber are in a close match in the 4th set but they decided to move to the Sharapova match that just started 20 seconds ago

Zverev is out lol
The over rated Sasha is out! I always keep feeling something weird about his “greatness”. He reminds me of Pim-Pim. Tall AF and sooner or later gonna Fiz out.

All the hype about Zverev and he made it to the 2nd week of a GS TWICE

Surprise, surprise. Another major where at least 4 of the top 6 women are gone by the end of the 1st week (Kvitova has to play yet tonight, so it could be 5). There's something to be said for parity, but this almost seems like a parody at this point.

You have anything to back up this statement?


I don't have hard data. But I was referring to the matches on Ashe specifically. In past years, if they'd have 5 matches on Ashe, most of the time all 5 would be in straight sets.

Whereas at the AO, there's a greater chance that some of the 5 matches on Rod Laver would be competitive.

I meant specifically the matches on Ashe, not for the overall USO tourney.

He beat Nadal at the 2014 Wimbledon to reach the QF.

2014 Wimbledon Championships – Men's Singles - Wikipedia

He then lost to Raonic after winning the first set.

He beat Seppi at the 2015 Australian Open to reach the QF.

2015 Australian Open – Men's Singles - Wikipedia

He then lost to Murray in straight sets.

He's also made the 4th round 3 other times.

Cilic vs. De Minaur tied in the 4th set at 3 all, with De Minaur having a 2 - 1 sets lead.

The first really late night at the Open takes place on the new Armstrong which now offers the same night session that Ashe does.

125 AM and we're heading to a 5th set.

If this were a Women's match, @Old Lion would have said "see, Women can't hold serve".

It's a good thing I'm watching this live.

Because even though I set my recordings for +3 hours extra time, this match has already surpassed that.

I had to schedule another recording ("College Football Live"), so I could capture the end of this match.
