The Tennis Thread - from Jan 2020 (Part 2)

Will Stef and Karen go on at two thirt?

No. The other pair dominated the speeches, and the woman in particular went on for far too long, almost 5 min.

What are Australian chances in the men’s doubles?

Just jokin and jerking @bigallan s chain.

When I don’t have one, except in your imagination.

Im sure you have long removed it.

Hope the urinal cakes get a good wash every now and again though!

(In good humour)

50/50 they are there.
I watched a match where they were smashed off the park 1st set lost 6-1, I gave up hope and turned it over but then clawed their way back.

Doubles is generally pretty even with momentum swings. They seem to have good chemistry together.

They are playing the number 8 seed which means something, but they just beat the number 1 seeds in the semi final. So should be up and about.

I dont think they have a massive weapon like Kyrgios serve for free points, but more like De minaur, will try and get everything back. Must be strong mentally to come back and win the matches they have.

IIRC they have both been through US College tennis systems, where doubles are fostered.

Go Stefanos!

Nole

Stefanos gets the early break to lead 3 - 1.

Khachanov breaks back.

Cmon Tsip

tsissy needs to learn how to fist pump

Tsitsipas breaks Khachinov for the second time.

What a rubbish service game.

Khachanov breaks straight back. Set back on serve.
Stefanos leads 5 - 4.

Tsitsipas is a mental midget. Doesnt have the killer instinct like Fed/ Nadal/ Djokovic had/ do

Oh boy

5 sets
