The Draw:

 

[don_fabio]

I am not a fan of Andy Murray's oncourt presence, but I must say I'm really cheering for his comeback. Maybe is too much to ask, but would be fun to see him win this tournament.

I did pick Andy to win it, in my bracket.

Wawrinka won a super-tight one over Feli Lopez today, I see. 6-7(4), 6-4, 7-6(4). And Tsonga lost to Simon, though I had him in the final, too.

The battle of the one-handed backhands. I hope @mrzz saw it.

I was pleased for him, as I know he's a new one folks are looking at, but was bummed he took out Tiafoe.

Sinner vs Wawrinka rematch (1R US Open 2019)

 

[Moxie]

Murray beat Copil today in 3, to make his first ATP SF in over two years, according to commies. He served for it in the 2nd, then lost in TB. Broke late in 3rd then served it out.

murray keeps on winning sinner is 100 in live rank charts.

Murray was up a set and a break; gave it all back dropping the TB he led in before getting his act together to close out the match in 3! :whistle:

Humbert / Sir Andy looks promising, hope the Scottish warrior can clinch the title

 

[herios]

Sinner's run ends. Stan beats him and makes the final.

Well he's going to have to work for it! Murray had early break opportunities, but couldn't cash in! Dropping the 1st set isn't helping him!

 

[Bonaca]

Murray is far away from what he once was. Never will be.
Never liked his attitude on court, but feel a bit sorry for him. Was a hell of a player and was part of some classics against the 3 best ever!
During this era, his success is pretty remarkable .
