Medvedev just a little too good for Milos today as he takes it 6-4 7-6(4)

Nadal was in deep trouble, down love-40 on his service game (already down a break in set 2 after losing the first set), manages to hold serve, and then breaks Zverev the very next game.

Zverev breaks right back and then closes it out beating Rafa 6-4 7-5. Medvedev vs. Zverev for all the marbles on Sunday.

I hope Medvedev takes those marbles and absolutely destroys him.

####ing Zverev, shouldn't even be on tour right now. At least I don't have to wake up for the final tomorrow.

Rafa had a shaky tournament at best, don't think he will be a big factor in the ATP Finals this year. Oh well, I've accepted the fact indoor hardcourt is not his surface.

ESPN Classic is replaying the Raonic vs Federer 2016 Wimbledon semis. Makes me nostalgic for crowds and the energy they bring to sports. Raonic was playing unreal tennis that day, such a shame he got a red hot Murray in the finals. Also interesting that Shapo won the boys title that year at Wimbledon.

Murray played Milos 7 times in 2016 and won all 7 matches.

Zverev takes the opening set 7-5 (breaks Medvedev in the 12th game).

Wow, Zverev got down two breaks in that 3rd set and then went into Tomic tank mode (including a double fault on championship point). Medvedev takes the title in Paris 5-7 6-4 6-1

Good.

Zverev shouldn't have been playing.

The ATP needs to look itself in the mirror.

Totally agree and not only Zverev but Basilashvili was arrested for domestic assault and is awaiting trial but still free to play on tour.

It's a long read, but Ben Rothenberg details Olga Sharypova's time with Sascha Zverev and let's just say it's pretty disturbing.

#1 seed Denis Shapovalov
#2 seed Felix Auger-Aliassime

Pretty cool.

Vasek rallied from being down 4-love in the 3rd set tie-breaker as well...He faces Struff next.

Wow - 19 year old Jonas Forejtek from the Czech Republic gets his first ATP tour win over Marin Cilic 6-3 6-2

Shapo looks like he needs/wants a break from tennis. Very uninspired in that first set as he drops it 6-2 to Albot.
