    wow
    I have never seen something like that in all my years watching tennis.

    The most favourite to win the Slam too..
    What a ridiculous and stupid way to get disqualified.

    Into the fifth. I’ll be surprised if Thiem doesn’t win. Zverev hasn’t looked great since the second.

    Both players so tight down the stretch

    This Open is showing the true strength of the old guard. Its not just physical its mental .

    We’ve been spoiled with Nadal and Djoko. Holy crap that match was ugly. Dudes were so timid.

    Sunday is a big match for djokos career. If he didn’t get ejected at the US Open he would likely be playing to tie Nadals career slam count.

    I still think he passes the other 2 before it’s all said and done.

    Nadal will win the French until he is 50. The young talent in tennis is pretty terrible.

    I'm a big Federer fan, but am sitting here cheering Rafa on.
    History in the making.

    He may have a few more French open titles in him. But I don’t see him winning on any other surface.

    There are some solid young players that just need to get over the hump mentally and they’ll start beating the big 3 consistently.

    Not even close. The big three have destroyed all the youngsters with ease. The only they win is if the big three get injured. Even Murray destroyed the youngsters. The big 3 are just that good. They would destroy everyone prior including Sampras.

    Am I watching a rerun or is the stadium full of computer generated cheering fans?
