Tiafoe looked like a future number 1 tbh

ok you're going to have to explain this one. I keep tuning into his matches in the hope of seeing what the Future Of US Tennis hype is about and every time I see horrible, clunky movement and horrible, clunky technique. The wind-up on his FH makes me wince. And so many errors. It's like watching the male Bouchard. He's currently struggling against Challenger-level nonentity Kravchuk.

k3vin k., Saturday, 1 April 2017 00:47 (nine years ago)

not that theres been a ton of opportunities but nick is a lil too content to play rallies / doesnt go for winners enough maybe

johnny crunch, Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:05 (nine years ago)

he almost reminds me of monfils a little with his questionable showmanship skills and general demeanor. though kyrgios is way angrier

k3vin k., Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:07 (nine years ago)

i can see that

johnny crunch, Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:08 (nine years ago)

johnny crunch, Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:25 (nine years ago)

this chair umpire has kind of an obnoxious voice

k3vin k., Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:27 (nine years ago)

great hold

johnny crunch, Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:42 (nine years ago)

kyrgios just spun what was probably a <70 mph second serve in

k3vin k., Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:57 (nine years ago)

k3vin k., Saturday, 1 April 2017 01:59 (nine years ago)

johnny crunch, Sunday, 2 April 2017 19:16 (nine years ago)

if someone predicted that on jan 1, youd assume he reinjured himself rd 1 aussie prob

johnny crunch, Sunday, 2 April 2017 19:17 (nine years ago)

This is getting ridiculous now. A Slam and two ATP1000s. World #4 from nine tournament results.

Michael Jones, Sunday, 2 April 2017 19:17 (nine years ago)

Gutted I missed Fed/Kyrgios.

35yo Federer swanning back to dominate the ATP is getting written up ever so slightly differently to 35yo Serena dominating the WTA. (As for the return of the Fedal rivalry as a whole, fucking spare me - the quality of the men's final was no better than Konta/Wozniacki, ie not great.) (I am enjoying the way the only thing to come out of Nadal's resurgence is Federer clawing back the h2h.)
