It should be a good one between Andy and Milos on Tuesday. I think Milos has a slight advantage playing earlier and getting a straight sets win versus Andy going three tough sets.

Big upset as Krajinovic takes out #2 seed Dominic Thiem 6-2 6-1. That certainly opens things up for Milos in that half of the draw.

Shapo tanked the match yesterday so he didn't have to play Belgium #1 Goffin

Felix was playing tennis that was just not up to par at all. Far too predictable, constantly allowing Sandgren to get up in rallies by refusing to hit off speed or try the odd approach.
Both certainly have some adjustments to make before the open, but my money is certainly on Shapo to go deeper than Felix at this point.

I agree with this for the simple reason that Felix is just a mess as far as his serve is concerned. It's actually pretty amazing that he was as close to winning his match yesterday against Sandgren as he was considering how badly he was serving. In contrast, Shapo seems to have figured out his serve (needs to clean it up a little, but I blame the layoff more than anything else for that).

Djoker just took out Sandgren in straight sets thus Milos and Andy Murray should be on court and starting their match in the next 15-20 minutes.

Oh, and we're a John Isner upset win over Greek Yogurt from a Opelka vs. Isner quarter-final match which would be so 2020 lol

Milos is wearing a compression sleeve for today's match (I didn't see him wearing one earlier this week).

He had it Saturday for his opening match because a little one I was watching with wondered why Milos had "Spiderman skin".
Looking forward to this one!

Well, that was some pretty sloppy tennis from Andy, but Milos will gladly take the break.

Yes ma'am. He didn't even serve all that great in the opening set until that final game. Andy needs to up his level big time.
