Just as well this was not on prime time.

 

[RCAB]

Get fkd.

I was sure he'd call a MTO.

Not full on sook & retire.

Did you ever consider that the medical time out he took against Alcaraz was actually legitimate?

 

[Chism]

Lol what a pea heart.

 

[Mr Meow]

I guess a lot of you look stupid for saying he wasn't injured...

Don't worry, they'll be queuing up to admit they were wrong. Any second now...

Unsurprisingly, they will switch straight to "oh he gave up, what a sook". It's amazing how stupid people can be.

 

[Plugger35]

Wow

Novak loses the first set and throws in the towel, you would feel ripped off if you paid good money to go and watch this match.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

He retired that makes things easy…

 

[Drummond]

Is he still faking injury you friggen clowns.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

He’d get the benefit of the doubt if he hadn’t done it before.

 

[Mr Meow]

Zverev showing 1000x the class of those who have mocked Djokovic and his fitness.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

I didn’t even notice he was injured all of a sudden he retires I was surprised…

 

[Bungeye]

I think it's in Novak's best interest to take the break and regroup. It's a very smart tactic that even Zverev is completely unaware of.

Very smart from Djokovic, he has to think long term.

 

[RCAB]

Bizarre

What's bizarre? Player is injured and leaves. Bizzare are the comments here

 

[JackNah_8]

Weird ending

 

[Drummond]

Love Zverev. So much. Lovely words.

 

[carlton_99]

If Ben Shelton can pull something crazy out tonight I give him a very good chance against Zverev if he plays like this in the final. Would be an incredible story

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Did you ever consider that the medical time out he took against Alcaraz was actually legitimate?

I didn't say it wasn't legitimate the other night.

I expected him to have a MTO today when he was looking disinterested/lethargic at the end of the tiebreaker.

Not retire.

It was bizarre

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Well Said Zvere

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

Love Zverev. So much. Lovely words.

Isn't he a domestic abuser?

 

[SC_Power]

The thing is, all the Novak haters on here will still hold to their claim that he’s not really injured.

 

[ABAB]

Wow

Novak loses the first set and throws in the towel, you would feel ripped off if you paid good money to go and watch this match.

Well, he might have known if he got through then there wouldn't have been a Final......

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

It was bizarre

Exactly. The commentators were surprised & thought it was bizarre.

Zverev has just said he was also surprised.

 

[RCAB]

I didn’t even notice he was injured all of a sudden he retires I was surprised…

I just found out today, I have gall stones, and I've been walking around like I'm fine. They're ****ing painful.

I hope we get a miracle tonight. Not that I don't like Sinner - I have followed his rise closely and was happy to see him break the class ceiling - but it would really throw a spanner in the works for the final.

Yeh I don't have any strong feelings either way on Sinner. But really like Shelton so would like to see him make a final - especially in Aus.
