Antaeus7 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) Maria Sakkari fells to Italy's Martina Trevisan 6-1, 6-7 (6-8), 3-6 Falling behind 3-0 in the second set, came back nicely to take a 6-5 lead only to let this slip away and fall into a tiebreaker. First time this year, she lost the tiebreaker. Fell behind 3-0 again in the third set, never she was able to comeback again. This is why you start off strong and final off afterwards.

Antaeus7 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Tsitsipas advanced thanks to an injury to Bedene, he had to retire in the 3rd set. Next he faces Bulgaria's Dimitrov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paokarag4 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Tsitsipas disposes of Dimitrov in straight sets 6-3, 7-6 and 6-2. This is only the 2nd time in his career he's reached a Grand Slam Quarter Final (after the Aus Open'19) Next up for him is the Russian 13th seed Rublev, who beat Tsitispas last week in the Hamburg open final. Stefanos was in that match and served for the match at one point so he's in with a good chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antaeus7 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) Tsitsipas got his revenge and swept Rublev out of the competition 7-5, 6-2, 6-3. On to the semifinals where he could face Djokovic unless baring a upset from Carreno Busta. Edited October 7, 2020 by Molon Lave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Tsitsipas played very well today. He'll need all that and more when he faces Djokovic in the semis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Djokovic clearly superior to Tsitsipas in their semifinal game. Tsitsipas comes close to win sets but just can't finish it off. On several occasions he's been leading 40-0 in points to only to lose the game. Down 2 sets. Looks like Djokovic will easily prevail in 3 sets.

Blackhawk Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Spoke too quick. Tsitsipas fought back and tied the game 2:2 sets. The deciding set about to start. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antaeus7 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 This is what I was hoping for. A 5 set thriller. If this goes down to a tie-breaker, I can see Tsitsipas pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antaeus7 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 The situation with Osaka in the French Open is very disturbing. She isn't entitled to be at the media if she has issues with her mental health. What hypocrites WTA/ATP are for not putting athletes first when it comes to their health. She was forced to withdraw from the tournament. I love Osaka so much, very humble, sweet, and down to Earth.

This is his chance to show that he can dethrone his long time arch nemesis. I think if he beats him, the path to the finals is achievable.
