CINCINNATTI MASTERS AUG. 11th to 18th

[Murat B.]

Good defending from Lopez. His slice is bothering Nishikori a bit too . And an amazing forehand DTL to get match point.

 

[kskate2]

Terrible overhead by Nishi and F-Lo has 2 MP's.

 

[Murat B.]

Finishes off with an ace. Good for Lopez.

 

[Slasher1985]

That 4-4 moment was the deciding point too. Lopez closed the match with an ace too.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Lopez tighten his game up just in the nick of time.. Great win by the 3rd best Lefty Spainard

 

[djmm]

Watching Lopez/Nishi in breaker 4-4. I can hear Azarenka's loud mouth.

LOL!!

 

[zalvar]

Excited for Ferrer vs Harrison and Dimitrov vs Baker today!!

 

[GameSetAndMath]

No revenge match for Murray. Youzhny took out Gulbis.

 

[Riotbeard]

Harrison takes the second set...

 

[Riotbeard]

He breaks to open the 3rd. Where has this ryan harrison been?

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Five of the eight seeds in the range 9-16 are already gone right in the first round.
Only three are still alive. They are Haas and Wawrinka who have won their 1st RD
and Milos who is playing Sock tonight for his 1st Rd match.

 

[Riotbeard]

How does harrison lose the plot this badly without ferrer even doing anything?!

 

[kskate2]

because he's not that good RB

 

[zalvar]

Wowee! Real nice from Ryan

 

[Riotbeard]

because he's not that good RB

Just broke back. I don't agree necessarily. He has a top 10 game (at least potentially) but horrible control of his emotions. Even in the game he broke, he had brilliant points and then super chokes. On match point, he played one of the most clutch sequence of defensive shot you will ever see, then nets and even forehand second serve return.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

ferrer was seving for the match and fratboyface broke him. :laydownlaughing

 

[zalvar]

Now Ferrer is gonna break ..

 

[zalvar]

and Ferrer wins!

 

[ClayDeath]

poor ryan harrison.


this was a good day to beat ferru.

ferru had around 29-30 unforced errors in the first set alone and ryan lost that set anyway.

 

[Murat B.]

Popsicle advances after Simon quits. He got the first set 6-3 but I have not seen a point of that match. I am wondering if Simon retired just as a precaution before the Open.
