[kskate2]

he looks disinterested in being out there

Carlos can do that to opponents. Just ask Novak in SF in 3rd set.

 

[don_fabio]

can Carlos sustain this level in the 4th?

 

[kskate2]

alright, I gotta step out soon. I'll check on the chat when I get to my destination. I'm trusting ya'll not to misbehave unsupervised. @don_fabio I'm talking to you specifically. LOL

We'll self-moderate!

 

[don_fabio]

what a volley from Sinner to save a BP

 

[Moxie]

Well, now it's REALLY getting fun!

 

[don_fabio]

These 2 just warmed up.

 

[Moxie]

I think you're right, Don!

After three sets, interestingly that neither champion has good service percentages going with Sinner at 52 percent and Carlos not much better at 55%.

They're aware of the danger of the other, and they cut it closer. They have to.

 

[don_fabio]

1st serves are low percentages, but probably some of it is due to risks taken.

 

[Vince Evert]

Sinner service - he's having to defend on every service game.

 

[don_fabio]

Now Carlos 1st serve is working like a charm when he needed it.

Let me just say: it hasn't rained a drop, and now the sun is out. Any basic weather forecast would tell them that. They should have played with the roof off. Not that it matters, except the principle of the thing.

 

[Vince Evert]

when they're going in Alcaraz has a decisive margin of 84% of points won to Sinner's 62% but that can all change, right

Good on you Mox, i guess what you're alluding to is that we'd have a better final standard had they played without the roof.
