Kyrgios will be loving this .

Play a half fit Nadal or a player in Fritz he will be favourable to beat and been through this match .

Norrie vs Kyrgios final?  

[Finnegan]

Fritz absolutely shagged this tiebreak.

I can't imagine he's played many 5-setters against someone like Nadal!

[PhillippaT]

Nice try Fritz! What a match, though!

TBF, that's half the problem, I think some players think they've lost before the match ends against these big players. As soon as Nadal got it to a 5th set, I think Fritz had doubts, rather than push for a win himself. That was totally winnable today.

 

Kyrgios won't have that problem, he 100% believes he can beat Nadal and doesn't care about his reputation.

Nadal is an absolute warrior

Maybe spinach is getting expensive, and they can only supply it at really short notice

 Indeed!

It’s the no sign at all of swallowing for me…. God I hate this ****

Good to see Sania Mirza in the mixed doubles this evening

[Super_horns]

Will Nadal risk more injury harm for the semi final  ?

 

Guess he proved he can cope as he did today !

 

But Kyrigos is going to be a different player ready to pounce on any aliments.

I think he'll play through it, not much to lose really as he'll have a couple of months until the US Open to recover.

[Lionator]

Bit boring but even a half fit Nadal and Djokovic will be too good for the Aussie thug and Norrie. 

[StanSP]

What a shot

Imagine that shot in the US they'd give her a standing ovation, polite round of applause from the Wimbledon crowd.

****s sake mate, if he’s taking illegal substances he’s not going to do it live on centre court.

Saw him walk off the practice court today, walking like John Wayne at the minute.

Bit like Heard snorting a line in a court room though isn't it... so unbelievable that no one would question it.

 

It's clearly some sort of inhaler powder, whether it's illegal or just questionable like blood doping... it's still performance enhancing/restoring.

I mean you’d be right but as we’ve seen already people question everything in this day and age 😂 so would be counter productive.

 

Possibly something that may have helped him but eating a banana helps you, as long as it’s legal, no problem.

Fair enough.

Think i'm just getting a little tired of the shared miraculous recoveries of those two at the minute. 

 

A new winner would be a welcome relief this year, especially given the year or so Novak has had off the court

[Super_horns]

Well done Rybakina.

 

Deserved to win - played well and Halep serve was poor.

 

Jabeur and Maria was a good match between close friends.
