Re: The Tennis Thread Alcarez is spectacular! And it's always fun to see Djokovic lose a big major match. I can see him winning US Open this time though since he should have more.

Re: The Tennis Thread Massive win from Alcaraz, I thought with Djokovic having serve in the 5th he would not give it away, but Alcaraz pulled it off. 2 slams already and only just turned 20, nobody on the tour right now that can match his talent, he will lose some matches, but looks like he will be no.1 for the foreseeable future.

Re: The Tennis Thread Nice to see Wozniacki is back, and based on the few minutes I saw of Vondrousova match at Canadian open where she hung, it looks like a legit comeback and not just playing a few matches for fun.

Re: The Tennis Thread My pick to win of the final four Keys blew it, but Sabalenka has lost so many similar semifinals that she was due.

Re: The Tennis Thread Nice to see Meddy beat Carlos. I hope he wins it all. It would put him on two US Opens.

Re: The Tennis Thread I'm extremely pleased for Gauff, and it will mean even more that she beat Sabalenka in the final and not just some ambitious qualifier. What a way to win your maiden slam.

Re: The Tennis Thread I thought Gauff was going to be too defensive to beat Sabalenka but it turns out she could get to everything.

Re: The Tennis Thread Well Medvedev blocking the Djokovic/Alcarez mega matchup ended up being pointless. I always thought Djokovic was going to win US Open similar to how Federer lost the big 2008 Wimbledon final to Nadal but got his 5th straight US open later in the year. Now if the pattern continued Alcaraz vs Djokovic would be final at Australian open with Alcaraz winning in 5 sets and dethroning him at his favorite major.

Re: The Tennis Thread Djokovic ended up with a very dominant season instead of passing the torch, probably should be called his 3rd best or so (3 majors and a close finals, very good at the non majors although I believe worse than 2011 and 2015’s). Shouldn’t really be happening at this age, but maybe the other guys other than Alcaraz are just too big of jabronis and even the latter cooled off recently.

Re: The Tennis Thread That was a nice preview of the finals in the non big 3 era, feel bad for Medvedev though.

Re: The Tennis Thread Nadal exits in Round 1 at the French.
The dude won the tournament just two years ago.
He was pretty much humiliated, too. I know he was against Zverev but he couldn't even win a set.
Tennis is lame now Fedal are out. When you gotta root for Djokovic you know times are bad, lol

I guess people won't be cheering for him to win one more over the young guys

Re: The Tennis Thread Poor Medvedev has amazing performance to beat world #1 and still faces nearly impossible odds of having to beat Alcaraz and Djokovic back to back.

Re: The Tennis Thread If I went by the visual I would have thought an Italian 17 year old made the finals but she is somehow 28.
