Aw, Yibbity, yibba! That's all folks! Adios Rafa .

 

[pepsi]

Awesome for tiafoe. Well it's going to be a great last few days to See who wins.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Well that’s Nadal out.

Kyrgios wins this now.

Still Alcatraz at least, and there’s the smaller albiet dangerous players like Cilic (who has been impressive coming through). Alcatraz won’t get a better opportunity for a first Slam

And if Kyrgios is at close to his top he will beat any of them.

Plenty (not you specifically) are carrying on as though this is 2018 Kyrgios. It’s not. He’s a completely different beast now. He’s been arguably the best player in tennis for the past few months and is rightful favourite to lift the trophy.

 

[X_box_X]

Well that’s Nadal out.

Kyrgios wins this now.

I wouldn't rule out Tiafoe now. I've seen many times players taken out a maiden Slam by defeating multiple highly rated players. I can see him beating Alcaraz and Nick as well.

 

[Xtreme]

Poor Rafa

First Serena and now this, what a horrible few days the king and queen goats ousted!

 

[swansdiehard24]

Tiafoe played a great match. I feel sorry for the bloke as he has been called a MUG for a while - has finally lived up to his potential. Looks to me we will have a first time major winner now unless Cilic pulls off a miracle

Wow, you're right.

When was the last time we had all eight Quarter Finalists of a Grand Slam never having won a Grand Slam?

Cilic ain't beating Alcaraz so this will potentially one for the record books. I highly doubt it has occurred this century.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Special Ks go out in a close one.

You would have thought they were playing at Melbourne Park the way the crowd were behind them.

 

[matt_897]

Nick was not happy with Thanasi at the end there. Shoddy net play from Kokk that cost them

The brilliant Ohh Ok tells me it was 2020.

He's right, and that's why he's brilliant.

 

[Surkin]

Casper Ruud will be world number 1 if he makes the final against someone not named Alcaraz. Wow.

 

[BobbyMorri]

When i think of the best player in the world, I think of Casper Ruud.

 

[BrissyLions101]

When i think of the best player in the world, I think of Casper Ruud.

It would be Ruud not to...

 

[matt_897]

When i think of the best player in the world, I think of Casper Ruud.

Lol, post of the tournament

 

[BrissyLions101]

Sinner v Ivashka turning into a tight one. With Nadal out now on that side of the draw, I would back Sinner in against Alcaraz.

 

[JackNah_8]

It would be great to see Sinner or Alcaraz win the US open

 

[2006_Eagles]

Nah, Jack

 

[BobbyMorri]

how. what. how.

This kid.

 

[DNAngel]

You don't get GS titles with talent. You get them with maybe 30% talent, 50% professionalism & 20% hard work.

Obviously, but when have you seen a player with no talent but only hard work win a Major?

 

[DNAngel]

how. what. how.

This kid.

Rick Macci believes that Carlos Alcaraz can be the GOAT .

 

[DNAngel]

Still Alcatraz at least, and there’s the smaller albiet dangerous players like Cilic (who has been impressive coming through). Alcatraz won’t get a better opportunity for a first Slam

I wouldn't underestimate Kyrgios - he is playing insane tennis right now.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Sinner & Ivashka into fifth set now which is probably a good thing for their next opponent.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Sinner manages the win and will be hoping this Cilic-Alcaraz match goes the full distance too.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Sinner manages the win and will be hoping this Cilic-Alcaraz match goes the full distance too.

Do you give Sinner any chance? He is one guy who I am just not sure about. Has a big reputation and some nice wins but I watch him and struggle to see how he will consistently trouble the top guys.
