Novak is wearing him out. Lazy drop shot there and Novak gave the stare down after the second break or the set. This kid has about 4-6 games left before he gets thrashed by the Goat.

Yep. Brooksby hit a two handed slice. Kid is wearing out.

Look at his serve velocity. Sinking ship. Only thing keeping it interests Djokovic is uncharacteristically sloppy tonight.

Only chance he has is to take a poop break at the end of this set and see if he can get some rest.

I think joker will win but his next 2 matches will be more difficult. Zverev match will be especially tough.

That's his biggest test. I think he will handle Medvedev easily if he gets by Zverev. I don't think Medvedev has handled any pressure situations yet, where as Djoko

The drunks at the top of Arthur Ashe really add to it. Love the night sessions.

Saw Sampras at a night session and saw Nadal and you could see Will Ferrel there behind the baseline. Drunks were shouting out lines from Old School during change overs. Amazing sporting night and so New York.

If Medvedev has any class he will give the second place trophy to Zverev. What a match.

Crowd was awful booing him during his serve which I thought caused the double fault.

Tip of the cap to Medvedev he was the best tonight and he deserves the championship. Would be crazy if the next gen takes over and the Big Three all end tied at 20.

I thought it was weird I hadn't seen a replay challenge early on in the tournament. Then I figured out they didn't have linesmen and were using the robots!

But players can still challenge calls. Saw a couple double hit replays that were messed up.

Yeah they replaced humans with the ‘Chase Close Call’ cam. Glad we replaced humans just so we could have one of the worlds richest banks sponsor the close calls.

Your robot umps were screwing up left and right in Cincinnati. During the Alcaraz Djokovic final a robot blurted out “out” while the point was still in play. LOL. A human (the chair ump) made them redo the point. Didn’t see this kind of bs at Wimbledon or Roland Garros.
