Grand Slam US Open 2022 (29 Aug-11 Sept)

[LukeParkerno1]

I dont think he has ever lost in the first round of a slam. He is good on all surfaces. Grass takes some adapting but Todd said on the telecast that he expects him to be a a very good grass court player as he has all the shots needed for that surface already. Just needs to learn and play more.

Nick
Berretini

Sinner
Tiafoe

Not sure about that and it’s purely going off the eye test so far back and relies so much on timing. You may be right and it comes but I have my doubts. No doubt on the clay and especially the US (this surface is his most natural well it looks that way)

Pick your semi-finalists:

Kyrgios v Khachanov
Berretini v Ruud
-
Sinner v Alcaraz
Tiafoe v Rublev

Kyrgios v Berretini

Sinner v Tiafoe

Amazing to think we will have a guaranteed new Slam winner at the end of this tournament.

Considering there's been only 5 other winners outside of the big 3 in the last decade is massive.

Ajla is doing a good job so far

I'm watching the US Open, as I do most other international major sport events on 'other channels' and the US commentators are all suddenly rooting for Ajla (naturally after Pegula and Gauff) talking up her chances to win the womens title - which I found a bit odd, until the wife casually says, 'but she beat Serena didn't she and therefore'.... And I'm like.... 'therefore what..?'
'Well if Tomljanovic wins the US Open, the media byline will be that Serena's career was ended by the eventual champion..!'

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Jabeur is a brick wall. Terrific player.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Ajla looked a bit weary out there and couldn't come back as she had in just about every other match here.

Oh well - a nice pay-packet & some ranking points. And making the second week in 3 out of the last 6 slams is nothing to sneeze at.

Maybe Ons will get her opportunity to win a Grand Slam at the US Open

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Anyone got any streams that work to watch the Kyrgios match?

Another nice practice match for the King before the Ruud match.

 

[BobbyMorri]

Anyone ever won the same singles and doubles Grand Slam event in the same year? Imagine that...

In the same tournament. A lot on the womens side

The telecast just said Yevgeny Kafelnikov was the last player who had done it in the same tournament in the mens. 1996 French Open.

 

[BobbyMorri]

If Garcia wins this game, she will win the tournament.

Pressure. massive pressure holding your serve for the win

Yeh I can see it being more common on the women's side. Fatigue less of a factor I reckon on the singles event.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

If Kyrgios loses he will blame playing doubles.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Didn't sound like he was gonna be blaming anything in the interview walking on to court.

'I feel great. Live and die by the sword."

 

[Bungeye]

Will kygrios stay aggressive from the baseline?

 

[AdelaideGT]

He'll be as aggressive as possible in this set. It's always critical in his mind to win the first.

It's going to be hard to beat her, she was too good today

 

[juss]

Nick looks as flat as I've seen him in a while.

 

[matt_897]

Garcia vs. Jabuer will be a lot of fun hopefully.

Nick is flat tonight, going to have to play well in tiebreaks.

 

[matt_897]

This is exactly why you never ever put expectation on Nick, you have no idea what's coming next

 

[Xtreme]

Nicks gone

Opportunity missed

 

[BringouttheGimp]

The King's injured. Damn.

 

[2006_Eagles]

King Cooked

The one time I dont bet against Kyrgios.......
