Re: '23 USO Day 8 OoP & Discussion
Why show live tennis when we can listen to James Blake blather on or watch Zverev on the practice courts?

Had 40-15 on her serve and made 3 mistakes. MP Zheng. Ons played aggressiely and saved it, then bent over like she was going to throw up. Then hit a great drop shot.

Yep. She's got the AD right now and holds. Qinwen will try and serve it out.meganfernandez wrote: ↑Mon Sep 04, 2023 10:02 pmHad 40-15 on her serve and made 3 mistakes. MP Zheng. Ons played aggressiely and saved it, then bent over like she was going to throw up. Then hit a great drop shot.

Zheng serves it out and advances, despite wearing orange shoes with her pink dress.

Jabeur's legs just didn't have any energy today, and she was coughing a lot between points.

Re: '23 USO Day 8 OoP & Discussion
Zverev had a fan removed for using "the most famous Hitler phrase." I didn't hear it, don't know it, and probably wouldn't want to type it anyway.
Edit: Now I think I know it, but don't want to type it.

In a match that is becoming a classic, due to the physicality. What an idiot.
I can't see either guy recovering in time to meet Alcaraz. This has been brutal.

First serve speed will be down, and Alcaraz will be pulling out all the drop shot - lob combos that he can.
