Novak has always been incredibly insecure. Can never handle the crowd rooting for someone else. Needs to be the popular guy everyone loves.

He had a reason to complain this time TBF they were carrying on during the point.

 

[BobbyMorri]

Poppy did well to keep the first set tight, despite playing poorly.

Needs to ride this momentium and get in front, cause it will turn around again.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Problem with this is its five sets.

No doubt he can beat him over three….

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

The way Novak threw the towel lols

 

[YeoShuey]

Must be nice for Popyrin to not be first rounded and losing to Stricker in a Grand Slam as usual

 

[Munich]

Have we seen this story way too many times? I think so.

Yep. It's just a huge tease which I refuse to fall for.

 

[Munich]

The question is whether he can recover from it.

Thiem had a wrist injury years ago and has not been the same since. It is hard to tell how it will go and at Novak’s age, it would be even more difficult to say.

Thiem's wrist is 100% fine.

His issues are all mental.

MTO for a cramp this is a farce

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Hopefully it's just cramp for Pop

 

[Munich]

Who's taken the MTO?

 

[YeoShuey]

Who's taken the MTO?

Popyrin.

 

[My Tilly]

Come on Thompson!

 

[My Tilly]

3 golden opportunities to win the set now

 

[LukeParkerno1]

So injured… yeah right

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Lol Novak

 

[YeoShuey]

Tsitsipas is struggling to serve the game out.

We’re on deuce 7 now I believe.

EDIT: and he aces to win the set. Tiebreaker.

 

[My Tilly]

Tsitsipas is struggling to serve the game out.

We’re on deuce 6 I believe.

Lost his ace. Massive opportunity here for Thompson. If he can take this set, he will win the game in my opinion.

lol and having just said that, the Greek nails an ace to take this to another tei-breaker

 

[YeoShuey]

Lost his ace. Massive opportunity here for Thompson. If he can take this set, he will win the game in my opinion

Yeah. Tiebreaker. I am not feeling confident about this.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Calf seems to be ok for Pop

 

[mattpolo8]

feck. imagine if poppi and thommo come back and win these. would be the greatest night in australian tennis ever.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Thompson isn't clutch enough

 

[YeoShuey]

Tsitsipas with the mini break

Tennis star slams 'disturbing' behaviour from drunk fans at Australian Open

Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova says she was screamed and meowed at by spectators at Melbourne Park's 'party court'

inews.co.uk

It was super loud, like in the restaurant basically, people talking and eating and drinking. I don’t know if they even watched the match,” Pavlyuchenkova told i.

“There were a couple of guys, I think they got drunk and they started to scream and meow [at me], I think maybe because I have this tattoo on my leg [which reads meow] or just because of course they had some drinks and so it was really disturbing.”

She added: “It was not nice to be honest. I was really annoyed at the start of the match. I have no problem playing on the outside courts, but this one was special in terms of the noise and also the court.”

Shock horror, the party court needs some work.

 

[Munich]

So injured… yeah right
