The Tennis Thread

The legs are gone on Maximus unfortunately. Old age waits for no man.

I’ve him backed at 13/8 so I’m hoping he has one more kick in those old legs :crossed_fingers:

Rafa loves the Melbourne crowd. Really feeding off their energy now.

Nadal has got a second set tie-break at the very least.

If Medvedev stays switched on, he’ll win. He does doze off a lot though.

I like the Russian. He’s lightly built compared to a lot of players and doesn’t appear to have much muscle mass. He’s a competitor.

If it’s a quick tie-break, I might just about squeeze it in. I’ve saved myself a few minutes getting togged out at home.

If this was Tsitsipas in the final it would be all over now and nadal would be on 21.

Fuck

Nadal just didn’t go for the jugular there. Too conservative.

I’m off.

Long way back for Nadal now from 2 sets down.

The crowd are disgracing themselves again. This is shocking.

2-0 medvedev.

Can’t see Nadal coming back from this. He gave everything in that set and still lost it.

He died with his boots on. You can’t ask for anymore. One more slam in May hopefully.

Think Nadal knows the writing is on the wall here.

Come on Rafa !!

Medvedev is getting thick here.

Sensational tennis from both players.

Get in!!! :es::es::es:

Come on!!

That’s some tasher on the umpire.
