Members Faulkner Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 If Sascha vultures a Slam in the absence of the Big 3, lord help us. Please register in order to view this content I hope Medvedev and Thiem don’t rip each other to shreds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 This is what worries me too. Sascha is full of sh!t and doesn't deserve to win it IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 I think Thiem will take it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) That’s my guess too on form, but you never know. I would honestly prefer Shapovalov, PCB, or even De Minaur win the title over Zverev. At least they, as Grand Slam champions, would be absurd in a funny “Oh that’s so 2020!” way. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Sascha beat a top player in a truly quality match. Edited September 9, 2020 by Faulkner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Gotta say, Naomi looks great. Rennae’s question to Naomi didn’t sit well with me. Like “Let me guess! Who’s gonna be on your mask next?!?!” It’s almost as if she was viewing the names of these deceased black victims of injustice like fashion labels.

Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Naomi is fascinating. Sometimes she goes into that little girl mode but other times she’s INCREDIBLY poised and well-spoken and thoughtful. Like it’s a sharpness that is rare.

Members Soapsuds Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 Shapo after just one set has gotten on my nerves. Him vying for a semi appearance is laughable. He is so not ready. Of course Kenin won a major...so anything is possible 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) He’s so not ready, even though I see progress. He can be a great shotmaker but then it’s just stupidity. PCB has missed some opportunities. Still I’d take Denis for the title over Zverev. Because you could laugh off a Shapo title. Zverev actually has a resume, even though he’s been one of the luckiest sons of bitches to hold a racquet.

Members Soapsuds Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Yes to all of this. If he were playing a top 8 player tonight..he'd be down two sets to none. He can't win with this kind of sh!t playing. Edited September 9, 2020 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 I think if he were playing a more dialed-in PCB, Denis would be down two sets to none. Pablo’s better than this. All this “replay the point” nonsense when there’s a bad call. Just use Hawkeye, folks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 Denis is -10 in this set. He almost hit a linesman too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 The screaming is bugging me too. But admittedly Kvitova’s pterodactyl screech bothers me as well, and she seems otherwise lovely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 I was about to post how I am hating his continued screaming. At least Kvitova got game! I actually love her screaming..lol Gawd Shapo has 36 errors in the match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 I just find it jarring. Shelby Rogers also messes with me, so I had to turn off her match with Petra. Serena’s “C’mons” don’t bug me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) The come ons that bother me are Kevin Anderson. He never use to do it in his career but now now he does.
