It’s over. Shelton is an error machine, a shanking machine. Good on him for those opening 5 minutes, thoroughly enjoyable.

I kept watching it, but after reading your comment realised I could have saved myself 30 minutes.

What did you end up doing once the match ended?

 

[FreoRicci]

This is Kyrgios when he wants to care and play. Shelton second serve is exactly how Kyrgios plays.
Pity doesn’t give a shit

 

[FreoRicci]

Yeah GTFO of the top 10 De Minaur. Not even close to these two’s level. It’s embarrassing how trash he is

Arrrrgh. Why bring him into it.

bit harsh

 

[JackNah_8]

His body is starting to fail him. Fed, Nadal and Murray all happened to tnem

It’s not surprising the booing happened, probably influencers who gave never watched tennis, that pissed off their face. That what the aus open has become

I don't recall AO tennis fans booing years ago. It's a different crowd that attend nowadays.

 

[Mr Meow]

Arrrrgh. Why bring him into it.

Every bit of thrilling tennis we see must in some way get us angry about an irrelevant Australian player. You know that.

 

[Xtreme]

Shelton has legs that would do do well in the Tour De France!

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

Shelton's game has upset Sinner, well done to him

Starting to? He’s 36 FFS. Still holding his own against Alcaraz who is supposed to be the next coming.

It’s petulant now.
I used to think it was USA, then French as the worst crowds. AO is certainly up there now

 

[Mr Meow]

Come on Shelton, you've gotta close this set to have a chance buddy.

 

[JackNah_8]

We used to be a decent crowd but coming close to the US open crowd.

AO has created a party atmosphere to attract high crowd numbers

 

[Drummond]

Cmon Ben hold please! He’s super tight in this game. Expected..

 

[Pee Tear Griffin]

Cmon Jannik, please break back

 

[Pee Tear Griffin]

yesssss lets gooooo

 

[Snarls Barkley]

That’s tough. Played so well but couldn’t finish the big moments. Think if Sinner steals this set he’ll win it pretty quickly in 3

 

[Mr Meow]

This is the issue for the youngster. Tightening up and losing his range when he has to be ruthless.

 

[Drummond]

lol disaster. Absolute mental collapse.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Much better from Sinner

Rubbish set but jag it

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Shelton has lost the plot since being broken in that last game to TBer

 

[carlton_99]

Real tough - just couldn't get the serve he needed on the most important point.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Enjoying this tiebreaker

 

[BobbyMorri]

Mate, he has made the quarter-final in the last 4 slams!!!!

It is embarrassing how little you appreciate that fact.
