Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2022 Members Share Posted September 9, 2022 I guess Sabalenka’s newfound nerves of steel had to fray at some point. Jabeur vs. Swiatek, it is. The top 2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted September 9, 2022 Members Share Posted September 9, 2022 Garcia has been playing lights out all summer and then nothing last night. I was looking forward to that match and it gave the least. Sabalenka did what was expected of her Please register in order to view this content Super excited about Tiafoe/Alcatraz tonight tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted September 9, 2022 Members Share Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) Ruud being #1 is mind boggling. It's ridiculous! I hope he doesn't win although once again ESPN would be eating crow. I have a soft spot for Karen but can he pull it off? I doubt it. Alcaraz... Has he run out of gas? I think him winning and becoming #1 is too soon but if I had to choose I'd choose him to win it all. Tiafoe just flush him. Never could stand his game. He has the worst mechanics when hitting all his shots. Edited September 9, 2022 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 9, 2022 Members Share Posted September 9, 2022 He’s at least playing like he really wants it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted September 10, 2022 Members Share Posted September 10, 2022 When does ESPN talk to the loser on court? ESPN is laying it thick for Tiafoe !! There goes Tiafoe says Patrick. Will Patrick and Co. lick Rudd ass if he wins the tournament? They all said he'd lose first round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted September 10, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted September 10, 2022 Yeah, Patrick mentioning Tiafoe had a lot pack up and then waited for him to leave was awkward. LOL Anyway, what a fantastic match! So many amazing shots! Tiafoe lost his mojo in the third, then both traded breaks in the 4th and Tiafoe keeps his tie-break streak alive. I thought Alcarez might run out of gas now that they were headed to a 5th but the 19 year old pulled through. This young guy has the potential to be a superstar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fevuh Posted September 10, 2022 Members Share Posted September 10, 2022 It was….awkward and weird to me. The waiting for packing up thing. And exactly how much stuff do you bring to a match? There were like 25 towels everywhere. I choked when someone said Alcaraz ? One of them? Has new shoes for every set or something??? Ridiculous 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 10, 2022 Members Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Given how much ground Carlitos covers, I can see why he might need fresh pairs of shoes every set LOL.

Administrator Toups Posted September 10, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted September 10, 2022 Have you seen those guys sweat? They need all the towels and extra shirts that can fit in their bag. LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 10, 2022 Members Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Yikes!! I blame the tennis media for not promoting its sport like it should be. Instead they pimp their favorites and the rest are after thoughts. They did it with Casper this year. US Open women’s semis hit low Airing opposite the NFL Kickoff Game and breaking news coverage, Thursday’s US Open women’s semifinals (Ons Jabeur-Carolina Garcia and Iga Swiatek-Aryna Sabalenka) averaged 1.17 million viewers on ESPN — the smallest audience for the round since the current scheduling format began in 2015 and the third-lowest primetime audience of this year’s tournament. In the week since Serena Williams’ final match, the most-watched US Open windows were Tuesday’s quarterfinal night session at 1.79 million (Garcia-Coco Gauff and Karen Khachanov-Nick Kyrgios) and Monday’s day session at 1.72 million (featuring Frances Tiafoe-Rafael Nadal). Those telecasts rank as the third and fifth-most watched of the tournament thus far. The women's final is a snoozefest so far. I'm falling asleep watching it! I expect new low ratings numbers for this boring final. Edited September 10, 2022 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 10, 2022 Members Share Posted September 10, 2022 Aside from moments, like the times she’s broken Iga, Ons feels rather defeated so far. But Iga really lifts her level for finals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
