I got home and saw the score and was .

Getting worked by Klizan bruh

But he IS only 17 years old and to make it to the main draw at that age is an accomplishment in itself.

Donald Young on the other hand?

I agree...Klizan is a decent career pro though. Basically a good barometer match for a 17 year old on the big stage.

I didnt see the match either..but scores were

Imma watch the tape at some point and compare it to that last tape I saw and see how much he progressed in the year and a half in between.

That serve better be different

I saw 10 minutes of Tiafoe and just... Wake me when he's 21 or something.

Donald Young... Maybe in a 250 he can turn up, anything else, nah.

Seems like 30's the new 20 in tennis now a days.

yeah cuz the american players either have A) no heart B) no elite skills C) poor in match adjustments D) only one elite skill with everything else trash E) no unique playing style F) minimal playing time outside of hard courts G) too many miles on the tires in their youth

coaches here are the ultimate scam artist salesmen. they fukkin suck and all teach the same half-hearted garbage. even in tournaments all the kids and parents are friends with each other now its an individual sport, play like you hate the other person god damn

all that shyt makes me want to quit coaching. i hate the other coaches/parents/players and im just watching.

need more clay/carpet/har-tru/grass courts here and the USTA needs to die fast

now, more and more of the young euros come here to train..hustling backwards in a big way..the veterans will always have an advantage over these idiots

Don't think he'll lose that one because Hamou is not experienced enough to win a 5 setter imo. And Jerzy only lost the first in a TB.

Bouchard getting that work from Kristi

 

[Liu Kang]

Kristi almost choked. From 5-0 to 5-4 in the second looking extra shaky

And the breh Jack Sock is really interesting. Never saw him play, but he's entertaining and really holding his own against Dimitrov.

Bouchard getting that work from Kristi

why you always hating on my pawg

 

[Liu Kang]

why you always hating on my pawg

Kristi is French
But for real Mladenovic was playing great (until 5-0 in the second when she started choking) and Bouchard was making plenty of errors (until 5-0 in the second obviously). Also Genie made the semis last year and she's out in the first round this one. She's gonna lose a whole lotta points :avb:

And Dimitrov getting that work too . Sock firing bombs left and right while Dimitrov making unforced errors after unforced errors

 

[Dominique Wilkins]

nice win for Sock

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

sock is nice..him and johnson are prob the best americans all around playing. fukk isner

im starting to give up on grigor. a year ago i thought he would have a slam title under his belt in the next few years but now i dont think its likely. i dont think he gives a fukk really..his game isnt well suited for clay and sock is a tough draw so i guess theres that

As much as dimi emulates federer, he's no federer.

There's been rumblings of Roger rasheed not being a good fit for his game, could be true with his form as of late.

And sock is OK. Plays up to his strengths and has some good results in doubles. Very good win for him.
