by skatingfan The day the mixed doubles final should have been played on.

by skatingfan Cliff Drysdale is retiring, and congrats to him, but also thank goodness it's way past time. Commentary, and play-by-play as if it is still the 1980's and people don't have access to the Internet possibly on the same device they're watching the match on is so tiring to listen to.

by ti-amie But he was right in predicting that Pegula was not going to break Sabalenka that last game...

by ti-amie JPeg saves MP #2...

"Why come in to the net when it hasn't worked for you all match..." Drysdale re that ball Pegula put at Sablenka's feet...

by ti-amie Still as anyone would predict Sabalenka wins. Pegula gave her too many chances to win if that makes sense. I just didn't get a sense of urgency from Pegula especially at the business end of the third set.

Anyway Sabalenka wins 4-6 6-3 6-4

by ponchi101 Seemed like a very clean match. Aryna: 43/27, Jessie 21/15 (W/UE). If Aryna can hit only 9 UE's per set, she is hard to beat.
Sorry for Jessie. I guess she and Zverev will have a lot to talk about once they retire. She is slowly climbing up the ranks of BEST PLAYER NEVER TO WIN A SLAM.
(I know, that is pretty much in Dinara's hands, but she reached #1. Consolation prize)

by ti-amie I know we've discussed this elsewhere here but there is something lacking in her game. I think she wants it as much as anyone on tour but when all is said and done there's no there there. I don't think that is something a coach can "teach" you.

by ponchi101 She doesn't have the power. She and Emma will never get that.
I love Navarro's game. The FH is a beauty. The serve is textbook. But she can't put power on the shots and, by that age, that can't be taught.
Jessie is the same. A very polished game with no power. So you can't hit through the opponent.
And both of them are with Yonex, which are control racquets. You will only have power with Yonex if you bring it. Otherwise, forget it.

by ponchi101 Meanwhile, Naomi-Amanda seems to be a monster match. Both served for a set, got broken, but won it in the TB. I don't know who to root for. Whoever loses is going to be really bummed out.

by ponchi101 Worst final I can think of. Either Amanda loses two finals this year, or Aryna loses three.
Don't know who to root against.

by Suliso A lot of respect to Amanda for pulling this one out. Sabalenka will be a favorite, but Anisimova winning wouldn't be super surprising.

by ponchi101 Last time they met, it went Amanda's way. But yes, it was by a whisker.
I say Amanda in three again. The crowd will turn in her favor. That may help her with a couple of points, and that should be enough.
Unless Aryna storms to an early lead.

by mick1303 Last three times someone made the finals of Wimbledon and US Open, she lost both finals - Jabeur and Serena twice.

Though I see them as complete opposites. Pegula maximized her game and overachieved. Zverev, on the other hand...

by ponchi101 Uhm... The level of competition that Zverev faced was way tougher. He had a brief window there in between R/R/N and now J/C. I gather we can agree: that USO final should have been his. And then, the one year in which he was pushing Rafa at RG he had that ankle injury.
I really think that he reached his peak. I don't see what else he can do better. He is simply that: a top notch player that was missing the famous imponderable. And had a bit of bad timing.
I say he did not have Hewitt's luck.

by ponchi101 So much for Djokovic making it interesting.
Time simply brings everybody down. He is the 3rd best player in the world right now. But the other two are too far ahead.

by mick1303 FAA played quite a decent match. Bodes very well going ahead for him.

by ashkor87 wonder why Djokovic insists on coming to the net, he is the worst volleyer among the top players...

He can't stay with Alcaraz from the baseline so he was coming forward to save his legs.

by ponchi101 And I don't think Novak has ever gone out there thinking he can't volley.
Mind you, I agree. He is not AS GOOD AS THE OTHER top players. From there to being inept there is a stretch.
