DAN THE ANIMAL.

 

Novak will end him unfortunately. That is if her gets that far.

 

Kyle and Gavin's faviourate Konta gone already, along with Boulter and Norrie. Looks like we are back to being utter shite at Tennis, it was nice while it lasted.

 

Well done to Dart though that's a big result for her.

Heading towards a 3rd round meeting with Djokovic though, so sadly I think it ends there for Dan.

The only way he is heading is home.

 

Downed in straights by BTEC Nishikori.

Just checked.

 

He is actually playing in a Rennes Challenger this week, first tournament he has played since 2017.

So he is., And it appears he’s lost today, I’m gonna say that’s purely because you looked him up to see what he was doing.

What a guy  

[Manwell Pablo]

Simon did it as well later on

Now Gauff has beaten Osaka.

 

What a day of Tennis.

 

The draw has opened up for Gauff to at least make the Semis, Kenin or Zhang next will be tough though.

Nick wraps up a thriller just in time for the football, good lad

Fed saves seven match points to take his quarter-final to a deciding set.

 

Amazing stuff.

[Izzy]

Fed is a freak. What a player

[spacemunky]

I'm no expert, but this kid Federer looks like the real deal.

[rachhere]

I saw the score at 530 and got up to watch anticipating a five set thriller. Amazing stuff from the Fed

If he keeps working on his game I think he's got a chance of being decent.

Doesn't look like he's got the legs and i think he'll be done within a few years.

Amazing from Thiem! If Fed can't get past Djokovic then I hope we can get a new champ. 

[kingfox]

Everyone thought a Barty vs Halep final, we end up getting Kenin vs Muguruza  

 

Muguruza vs Halep though was fvcking outstanding.

 

Onto Novak vs Roger now, Roger supposedly has his thigh heavily strapped 

[Jimothy]

C'mon Thiem!!

[Lionator]

Tennis needs Thiem to win this.

Really does.

 

8 of the last 12 womens Grand Slam winners have been first time winners. In that time Osaka is the only one to win more than once, so we've had 11 different winners in 12 slams.

 

In the last 12 male slams, 0 no new winners, 3 different players.
