No doubt Kyrgious is uber talented. Potentially more so than Medvedev.
The main difference is workrate. Stamina meets concentration.
Right now NK is a party trick where as DM is looking like the next big thing.

PS: Medvedev nailed the crowd. The IQ comments were perfect.

Nick’s got great natural talent, but it can only get you so far if you don’t work at it. I read an interview with Roger years ago where he spoke about when he first started working with Roche. Tony said he wouldn’t be ready until he could confidently say that he could play 7 5 set games over 2 weeks. Nick will never get that level of commitment. He seems to be happy to be a sideshow, and he clearly makes a good living out of it. The pack of morons that follow him around probably haven’t worked that out.

Hey a lot of people still support Esserdern too so that's ok.

Sounded like the dheads were back watching the Kyrios / Kok doubles match earlier.

Our Ash is on TV now, sheesh Camila Giorgi, how did I not know who she was

She’s also a lingerie model. Trent is in Ash’s circle in the audience.

Yes, she wouldn't have to beg me too much

I've still only got eyes for Ash though.

Jim Courier is getting a bit ahead of himself, he's talking about who Ash is going to play next.

Jimbo, Ash has got to win this match first !!!!

To be fair to Jim, they’ve penciled Ash V Osaka in since the draw came out.

Really want Tiger Ash to win, but it would be a shame not seeing Giorgi on TV

Yeah, Giorgi's cute but I thought she was better than this. Lost 1st set easily.

 

[TigerForce]

Still get the feel that these Women's games at 3 sets max is a bit disappointing.

Also disappointed in Ash wearing black and white colours.

She’s inconsistent. Sometimes when you’re up against a top player you can only play as well as they let you. Ash is right on top of her game at the moment.

Amanda Anisimova is another one with exceptional talent. Good tennis player too.

Who started this fist pump virus in tennis? Bloody hell it's annoying.

Rafa's in a slump against this skinny Russian bloke who somehow has a strong serve and forehand.

Interesting match, Rafa dominated set 12 and 4, but dropped confidence as Karen smashed the sweet spot in set 3

I'm glad that there isn't a match between Giorgi and Anismova. Wouldn't know which way to turn

 

[TigerForce]

Now there's a real player: Alex de Minaur now progressed to the final 16.

This is how I'd watch Giorgi and Anismova.

That French bloke Mannarino playing with an uncovered noggin in this hot sun......is a worry.
