Faulkner Report post Posted June 5, 2018 Novak out, but he sure fought to the death in the tiebreak. Cecchinato is having a Puig-like run. Everything is working for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DramatistDreamer Report post Posted June 6, 2018 Is it possible that the rain delay might benefit Schwartman as well as it will Rafa? Yeah, probbably not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faulkner Report post Posted June 6, 2018 It’s crazy how good and competitive Halep/Kerber matches can be. I just wonder if Simona will have anything left in the tank for Garbiñe, who just has that sort of “I’m going to win my third Grand Slam title and try me at your own peril” game face on.

Everyone knows he was saved by rain once again. Yeah. It just seems like Rafa lucks out more often than not, especially when he steps on a clay court. Cakewalk draws. Favorable weather. Well-timed interruptions. But still Schwartzman suddenly became Thomaz Bellucci after that rain delay. A lot of foolish mistakes that can’t be blamed on Rafa. There was one ball that was clearly sailing out, but he took it in the air and shanked what should have been an easy volley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChitHappens Report post Posted June 7, 2018 Mugu had such a creampuff draw, and this goes back to Kasatkina's coach with these youngins. When Queen has an easy draw, she adjusts for when it gets tougher. Garbine didn't do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Queen has an easy draw, she adjusts for when it gets tougher. Garbine didn't do that. I figured Garbiñe would be able to up her level since she’s won two GS titles. But I was more surprised at Halep because we’ve seen get a tough win and then just go off the rails. Or get a dominant first set and then fall apart, which was what she appeared to do against Mugu today. But she broke back and then fought through it. She still has to beat Sloane (most likely), who is a tough big-match player and manage any letdowns, as Sloane is so solid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
