Roland Garros / French Open 2025 [Men] - Grand Slam

[Moxie]

Agree, Cerundolo and Etchevery are the ones who disappointed me the most and destroyed my draw. Baez was also 2 sets up and still lost.

Definitely tought Etchevery could pull an upset or at least make it hard for Tsitsipas.

Destroyed my draw, too! We were all wondering why he even went to Geneva last week. Was that so hard to see? Side note on Argentines: I keep pulling for Comesaña, but he betrays me. Etcheverry was a disappointment, too, though I saw little of that match. I thought that was a tough 1st round draw for the Greek.

I will be getting up early for Medvedev v. Norrie.

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

Carlos Alcaraz is going to win his 5th grand slam.

 

[Front242]

Hopefully not. Anyone please but Alcaraz and Sinner.

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

Hopefully not. Anyone please but Alcaraz and Sinner.

why tho?

Alcaraz is one of the most interesting players on tour atm

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

Hopefully not. Anyone please but Alcaraz and Sinner.

I am more like anyone but Nole. Having said that, Nole has some fair chances of making it rn.

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

Tbh as a person brought up with values like humility, grace, and character I don't enjoy Novak Djokovic or the energy he carries.

 

[kskate2]

Meddy crashed and burned against Norrie of all folk.

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

He may be a great player but not for one moment could I align his energy with the goodness of the Universe. Besides, I don't enjoy people who use negative inspiration to push themselves.

Meddy crashed and burned against Norrie of all folk.

Norrie's been playing well, and Medvedev hasn't. I don't think that's a shock. That's why I got up so early. And it DID go 5.

 

[Moxie]

Fonseca up 2 sets to love on Hubie!

Only in the last month or so. Prior to that he struggled mightily. Look at his ranking.

Fonseca up 2 sets to love on Hubie!

Yes, I think he's still suffering a hangover from that choke job in Geneva. Looks baffled and has no answers for Fonz

 

[PhiEaglesfan712]

I mean, Medvedev has never been a good player on clay. I'm not surprised he lost his first match at the French Open. I mean, even when he was at his best, he lost early at the FO more often than not. Quite frankly, I would have been more surprised if Medvedev made a deep run.

 

[kskate2]

I agree to an extent, but he did serve for the match today and really imploded.

 

[El Dude]

Just watching the third set of Fonseca-Hurkacz. Fonzie looks great - very dominant, like an elite player who has that quality specific to elites that the match is on his racket. He looks the best I've seen him since early in the year - maybe better. He's using the whole court, hitting all kinds of shots. His game looks more varied than before, but I could be imagining things.

Hubbie got served an early exit. Another victim of overplaying just before the GS. Good confidence booster for Fonseca, I think he needed it.
