Bublik called Simner AI generated.

Have you SEEN those Icelandic last names? Terrible.

The languages derived from West Norse are fascinating.  As are the Native American and Inuit languages.  I don't see an issue with polysynthetic languages.

What's the problem?  Greenlandic people take pride in their long words.

They better change that after they become part of America

They shouldn't be part of Denmark or the United States.

The pop Sinner gets on the ball is ridiculous.  It sounds different.  And the crazy thing is his shots have a low margin for error with his spin and height over the net.

Ok, commie

Venus Williams plays with a Canadian in doubles? So much for the "US" Open! 😡

Lindsey Davenport was better

Lindsey Davenport was better

Davenport could absolutely throttle the ball.  But was not exactly a prime-time mover.

[MuggsyB]

Sinner went FULL MEDIEVAL today.  He's sort of a bigger Djokovic?  That's obviously a problem. 

[Shaka Shart]

We shouldn't body shame here, as proud Americans

[MuggsyB]

Does Fritz have any chance vs Djokovic?  0-10 isn't good.  Maybe he's due. 

[MuggsyB]

5 unforced errors in your 1st service game isn't helpful. 

[MuggsyB]

Abysmal start from Fritz. 

[MuggsyB]

Fritz has elevated his game in the 2nd set but cannot convert a break point. 

[Shaka Shart]

Hey Sh**head better late than never to win a couple break points when you're not up against it

[MuggsyB]

This just got more interesting.

I don't feel sorry for Fritz - he's rich, and obviously a great tennis player.

But he simply can't beat two guys who are younger and much better than he is ... and he also can't beat an old coot, either.

Dude had so. Many. Break chances. Straight up didn't convert.

[MuggsyB]

Didn't get to see it but a tremendous win for Anisimova over Iga today.  Not easy to take out someone after losing 6-0, 6-0 in the Wimby Final.  Especially someone as accomplished as Swiatek. 

[MU82]

Osaka with such a compelling life story. Impossible not to root for her.

She played so much better against Muchova, who unlike Gauff didn't just hand it to her.

[MuggsyB]

Sinner is absolutely bludgeoning dudes.  I still think Alcaraz" best is probably better, but Sinner is significantly more consistent.  He's also vastly improved his vertical speed.  His court coverage at about 6'4 is pretty ridiculous.

Anisimova can unload from both wings.  Especially her backhand.  That match should be a good one.  Osaka is the better mover but can she dictate points vs Amanda's power?  Osaka has the better 2nd serve.
