So happy for her ❤️❤️
men just never know when to shut up
Why is the women’s doubles schedule so dumb? If Venus had won she would have played 3 days in a row in a 15 day tournament …
Iga loses a set, Iga goes to take a massive poop. Every single set she’s ever lost
Swiatek took a couple of steps back in these last 2 points and suddenly getting balls back
Anisimova the better player in this first set but whilst they both look stressed af, you wouldn’t bet against Iga being the one to focus on the big points
I know Anisimova has the best BHDTL in the world but you can hit it cross court lol.
Muchova Osaka is a match up that’s happened at the last 3 hard court slams… rivalries
That slider to Swiatek’s forehand is gonna get Amanda all the points on both sides
he was very poor at the tail end of sets tonight. FAA steps up but Demon blinked hard
Anisimova and when to go line off her forehand… basically the entire match
Everyone goes on about how De Minaur’s serve has massively improved and like yes it has speed wise but he literally cannot slice it. Like he can only bash it and sort of kick it. It has to be one of the worst ever serves technically that’s been in the top 10.
Okay that tiebreak made me feel… somethings. Definitely his game suddenly had an identity - he was gonna win or lose it a certain way
I’m not watching FAA and thinking like he’s gonna keep this form up. like it feels very one random tournament peak
well it’s more he just wants to flatten it out but he’s such a wannabe big babe 😂
The answer to their trivia question is Sam Querrey…
I appreciate that De Minaur is trying to win his matches playing like a WTA big babe. Like take that ball at the top of the bounce hun
Courier so on the money with his tactics. Felix has a huge topspin forehand. stand back and lift the ball on those second serves. Push De minuar back cause then he is gonna hit short with his flat shots
Fritz is a Ferrer. Stop trying to make Ferrer happen guys
but then wins one that matters and the match.
3 tap out backhand errors from Novak. Surprising
oh look, djokovic starts blocking first serve returns to get into potentially fritz last service games … no more roulette. Fritz finally winning some long rallies when it matters
I understand why Djokovic is keeping points short and willing to say, atm gamble on first serve returns… I don’t understand why Fritz is not making this more physical.
Wouldn’t call this match high quality from either guy. Gonna have to show me a lot more to convince either of them playing Carlos is worth my time. I mean tuning in for whatever bull gamesmanship Djokovic would bring aside
kay Novak an emergency dog wee has got me up, and I see you’re tanking a set now Fritz has broken you. Like can I have more pls? Insomnia has brought me to you
I’ve never heard Siniakova talk before… damn that’s .. a sound
Venus swerving the interview request from Pam Shriver
Venus is not miles off the world no 1s in doubles at 45. Bit too late in this match probably… but remarkable she is right there tbh.
Venus realising the only way to win this is by knocking out Siniakova with a tennis ball. Valid
The i formation is driving them crazy. Gotta through up some lobs to take that away from them
Venus and Fernandez are gonna get schooled tonight just to reiterate doubles players > singles players message from mixed doubles ( I know Venus is both but like fr)
so obviously it’s about to be no Czechs and Swiatek
No All the czechs are going down 😭😭😭 Muchova is like the last standing and least healthy even over a withdrawing Marketa
What injury is djokovic gonna make up on Friday to get past this 😂😂
What exactly is Evolve doing for Sabalenka? We know they're trying to keep Kyrgios relevant. But how does this benefit their client Sabalenka, an actual active player, and oh yes, the world #1?
Genuinely shocked i’m hearing non Wimbledon tennis being discussed. They must be players
And now sexism about Raducanu, bye
People are talking about mixed doubles on my bus. Well Raducanu and Alcaraz dating now… they’re cutting through
wow i really didn’t think my mood could get much worse today
omg has he flaked on her? i’m watching it on the move and i may have zoned out of the audio
and she confuses Siniakova with Vondrosouva …
Barbie K has Pegula right where she wants her 😂
omg there’s a gif already
Pegula is being very aggressive. I feel like this court is fast enough to kind of bring her game up
Lindsay Davenport seems to think Poland and Czechia are same place
Omfg barbara fan is back. mutes
Can’t wait for the semis of the USopen, 3 Czechs and Anisimova
Sabalenka is cooked if Osaka becomes a slam contender cause like she can’t even get over the line half the time anyway
Perfect example there in the last game of the different forehands. The box calling out for her to keep loading on her legs
and then the rotation on the shot too, she finds that easier on the inside in, or the cross court. but on the neutral forehands it’s not really there
lol the commentators were like Gauff’s serve is fine her forehand is the problem today and then she double faulted her way out of the set
Everyone goes on about the grip with Coco’s forehand but the weight transfer off the back leg comes too early when she’s hitting a neutral forehand. When she’s stretched she places weight on that back foot naturally
Osaka’s defensive skills a bit reminiscent of Sharapova working on it on the clay… like she could never do this last time
aha i’m from the UK that’s outrageous costs 😂
Is the USopen just too expensive? they’re showing pics of the grounds and like it’s a bank holiday and barely anywhere is full…
This men’s match is making me want best of 3
If you add on Courier’s analysis of how his toss means he can basically on hit slice first serves on both sides but he’s only making 44% of them. Like you’re hitting the same serve but not making it? What?
I really don’t understand Rublev’s approach to tennis. Like being consistent makes sense but like no variety? no surprise? nothing to call on in a big moment? like it’s so fundamental to tennis. Like even if you use it twice per match, having that off kick serve / drop shot whatever …
Also need whoever wins this to beat De Minaur cause nobody needs to see the pigeoning from Sinner in a grand slam semi final
Ok FAA with first blood so we’re supporting him cause who cares about men when there’s Osaka Gauff?
Who are the two moody looking model girls in FAA’s box? is he dating both of them 😂
Having a person call lets in such a loud stadium… tennis
It would be cool if therapy and Safin can make Rublev’s ceiling go up
Oh was so hyped for FAA Rublev but now i’ve seen their h2h… might be a lot of pressure on Rublev somehow
I feel like the doubles is a defence mechanism. well i still hate a great week in the doubles, so no worries. Like it must feel a hell of a lot better than losing early in a low level singles tournament
Keir Starmer has appointed as his new Comms Director Tim Allan who was a board member of the hate group Sex Matters. It's no longer even pretending to adhere to its Manifesto promise to "remove indignities for trans people who deserve recognition and acceptance."
If I get reincarnated, I want it to be as a female Czech tennis player
Marketa finds herself 15-40 down while serving for the match and hits 3 straight aces and 1 unreturnable ... are you serious
also, Rybakina has only lost to eventual champions during this summer's hardcourt swing....
I don’t think i’ve ever seen someone lose from 8 match points up and not think she did much wrong. Not her day but Townsend showed up her entire game this week and it’s so good
of course she hits another line on match point. God she must have made a deal with some kind of devil this week, probs that guy in the crowd
Omg the people next to shouty guy hate him. They have not had a good 3 hours.
I am a bit over this guy screaming for Babs
The camera catching the staff around the court negatively reacting to Barbie K’s latest insane winner ahahah
Have to say feel like the crowd has been quite shit
Have to say i find it a bit extra that the players sit down like 6 metres from the fridge and then ask the ball boys for drinks like they’re in a restaurant.
when Barbie K is doing it to her on the deuce on second serve constantly
If Barbie K didn’t net 60% of her cross court backhands…
I’m confused why Taylor isn’t going wide in the ad
Vibration dampener drama again…
I didn’t love where Taylor was serving on those match points but i haven’t seen anyone rob match points like that consecutively ever. How many lines did Barbie K hit on match points? like at least 6/8
Taylor wasn’t even covering that wide serve. Like you’re advertising where to serve
she heard me!
Barbie K might be moving well laterally rn but i’m not convinced she’s getting up to the drop shot…
like legit she has missed so many CC bh set point and now she saves match point with line and drop volley there too😂
The off backhand and BHDTL on huge points from Barbie K when she literally canneeee make a CC BH. you can’t make it up
AND their parents!
we need to boo these vulture kids way more man. we gotta shame them
Have to say am crazy impressed how Barbie K has just kept swinging through her matches cause the errors have been wild, but so far when she needs it… it drops in and looks super safe
Barbie K’s leg is so fucked i might have to watch Boulter play doubles 🤢
Barbie K is spraying but Townsend is serving so nicely
I wanna see Barbie K or Townsend against Sabalenka in the semis ( Pegula isn’t real )
Wrap it up Lehecka, we need to see tennis royalty in Townsend and Barbie K
2005 - Alexander Zverev (Wimbledon, US Open 2025) is the first ATP top-three ranked player to lose in the opening week at consecutive GS events since Rafael Nadal (Wimbledon, US Open) in 2005. Crash. #USOpen
did he bin Medvedev? it’s not clear
shoelaces …
Sinner is such a djokovic, finding bollocks when he’s losing. Always ill, injured and now he’s complaining about the ad boards
Nothing better exemplifies how little Nike cares about tennis these days. Your world #1 with a massive butt crack sweat stain. Nike said you'll take whatever piece of shit we give you.
Sinner’s double faults get him the set but have to say impressed Shapovalov’s head is on straight still
