I didn’t realize these two have faced off this often. Picked the Greek to win in 4.

Karen is playing great tennis,and he is playing better than Titipus

He‘s 0-5 against the Greek. While he may be playing well, it seems Stefanos has been able to figure out a way to win up to this point. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was an upset, but I’d like to see Tsitsipas get another shot at a title.

 

[tented]

I’ll give Karen one set. Feeling generous …

 

[tented]

Playing long points in the first 2 games, feeling each other out.

 

[tented]

Tsitsipas breaks to go up 3-1.

 

[tented]

And we’re back on serve: 3-2 …

He is "the Young Greek" named so brilliantly by Miss Margaret, jajaja

 

[tented]

Great point at 4-4, 15-30.

EDIT: Tsitsipas breaks and will serve for 2nd set.

I just woke up, time for my pick the Young Greek to break and send silent double K to the locker room

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Someone has to save tennis it might as well be The Young Greek

 

[Moxie]

Wow...I've paid so little attention to the schedule, thinking that I wouldn't really get to watch anymore, due to ESPN, I didn't even realize the match was already on. Set points for Stephanos to take the 2nd set.

 

[tented]

The Greek up 2 sets to love.

 

[nehmeth]

That one point on Karen’s serve, Tsi returned three overheads and then won the point. That was incredible.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I still dont think The Poo has done anything to improve The Young Greeks serve
Is he playing well enough to cause any concern for Novak?

That may have broken his will.

I think he is like Rafa, saving himself for a better opponent like the Great Serbian Slayer
