I guess Zverev was up 4-1 and love-30 on Djoker's serve in set 3 and somehow found a way to drop that set. In my opinion, it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Naomi vs. Serena on Wednesday (could be early Thursday morning) is definitely a popcorn match.

Djokovic won: That's bad
It was against Zverev: That's good

It reminds me of a Fresh Prince episode where Will needed extra money for a dance. He gently took Uncle Phil's hand and winced in pain, "I got cramps."

The funny thing is Djoker is great for tennis - He brings both fans of his as well as people who hate-watch his matches. I mean, I posted the racquet smashing gif above but does anybody expect him at this point to change his on-court behavior? Put it this way, I'll take beating up racquets over beating up ex-girlfriends any day of the week.

/Now news has come out this week that Zverev's pregnant ex-girlfriend doesn't want him to have anything to do with the raising of their child. That's a pretty strong indictment of the type of person Zverev is.

This is good news, the fake crowd applause was quite annoying...

Rublev vs. Medvedev - Danill has won all three previous matches at the ATP level, but I'm thinking Andrey gets the win tonight.

Also, I think Greek Yogurt will get curdled tonight.

Normally, we agree on match outcomes, but I think Danill wins tonight and takes the whole tournament.

Well done on the pun

It's a little bit of a reach, I'll admit, but I think the speed of the court will give Rublev just enough of an edge to pull out the win.

What happened to Barty, she was cruising and now Muchova is up a break in set 3? What a turnaround.

It looked like Barty rolled her ankle at the end of the first set.
