Novak looks bamboozled out there, really uncomfortable and off balance on a lot of his shots.

Yeah... It doesn't help that he's playing a clone of himself. Sinner learnt lot from those two wins late last year.

Nole doesn't have the same rally tolerance he had before.

Sinner has one of the hardest forehands on tour, that's going to impact the rally tolerance. He's really improved his serve over the last year or so as well.

I've never seen Novak make this many unforced errors. Just regular rally balls are ending up in the net or sprayed wide.

Sinner needs to hold to win set 2 6-2 and take a 2 sets to love lead.

Edit: 6-1 6-2 and I don't think any magic potion can save Novak today.

I have a feeling Novak wins this set then it's even money on who wins from here.

They're saying that someone has fainted in the crowd - 5-5 and Novak serving at deuce in set 3.

Sinner playing his worst tennis of the day in this 3rd set tie-break is terrible timing.

Edit: Novak saves a match point and ends up winning the tie-break. We need a 4th set.

Based on Sinners form not surprised at all he won that match tonight. Even put my money where my mouth is. I expect Zverev to beat Daniil as well. Sasha is Healthy and the backhand is ridiculous.

Zverev losing from two sets to love up is just chef's kiss beautiful.

Hopefully Sinner can outlast Gumby in the final.

I hope Medvedev can finally win an AO title on Sunday, he's been so close the last few years I think he deserves it.

Also if the next big rivalry is Alcaraz vs Sinner we are in for some amazing tennis.

My condolences. Even $25 a seat would be far too much money to see that abomination.
