ATP Final final: Thiem v. Tsitsipas

[Bonaca]

Tsitsipussy clearly the better player so far. Couldn’t convert break points yet, Austrian peasant always escapes.

6:5 Greek, pretty tight. Both had BP, good level.

 

[Bonaca]

More Winners and less UFE from the Greek, Vienna won the set .

Tsitsipas moves with the elegance of a B-movie Frankenstein.

Sean Connery " I will take Tits I Pass " for $200 Alex...

On a more serious note, I am happy there were 3 single handed backhanders in the semis, and 2 in the finals.

 

[tented]

The Greek up a double break in the second. An odd beginning of the set for Thiem after winning the first.

 

[tented]

Tsitsipas quickly up 5-2 in the 2nd

 

[Moxie]

Well, at least I'll get to watch the decider.

 

[Bonaca]

Greek much better, 15:40.
Now send this peasant home.

 

[atttomole]

It looks the Austrian is running out of petrol. He has the physicality, but I am not sure about his stamina.

 

[Bonaca]

This time he will hopefully not escape.
Too weak , Greek makes the game too quick for him.

 

[atttomole]

Tsitsipas is now running around the backhand, going for the forehand, and it is paying off.

 

[atttomole]

Thiem is taking a page out of Nadal's book with his court coverage.

 

[10isfan]

Go, Thiem. I picked him to be the next non big 3 number 1

 

[atttomole]

Both finalists lost in 1R at both Wimbledon and US Open this year

That is why many people are cautious when assessing these two.

Cheap clone of him.

 

[atttomole]

Cheap clone of him.

He is a poor man's Rafa Nadal. Just like Messi is a poor man's Diego Maradona.
