Bit annoyed that yet again Matteo’s match is on late so I won’t get to watch him sweating playing.

That’s great that you got Wimbledon tickets fizzy and Chessie!

It’s really tough for Arthur that’s he’s having to play in the day session, and against an opponent who had a walkover in the previous round! I was hoping he would win simply because I feel like he has a better chance against Djok in terms of his play style. But I’m aware that’s a pretty sad reason to support someone!

Ice most of my reasons for wanting players to win have been based on 'will they be able to beat Djok' to be honest.

It all feels like it's leading up to him winning his first tournament 'proper' in over a year or so (apart from the Olympics).

I miss Jannik, who seems to be the only player who has been able to beat him consistently recently.

Well done Jakub.

Raahh · 27/03/2025 18:29

Well done Jakub, though Arthur didn't have anything left in the tank.

Can't help feeling still that Sascha, of any in the last round would have been the better bet against Beelzebub.

I had to google 305. It’s the area code for Miami

Maybe Seb will do us a favour

IceandIndigo · 27/03/2025 18:32

I don’t know Raahh, Sascha has really gone off the boil since the loss at the AO. At least these young guys don’t have any mental baggage. But I am preparing myself for Djok to lift the trophy, honestly.

Raahh · 27/03/2025 18:32

Come on Seb!

Thanks for the explanation Jane - Naomi and Lee were no help!

Well done Jakub - a step too far for Arthur

I’m also sad about the lack of Matteo in the earlier matches - haven’t seen him at all this tournament

It's so depressing.

I liked Djok free tournaments.

Few cities have a love affair with their area code as strong as Miami does with 305. It's shouted out in various rap songs. Pitbull calls himself "Mr. 305." Tattoos with the numbers are common, and Dade lifers love to say that they're "305 'til I die."

JaneJeffer · 27/03/2025 18:34

That’s from Google obvs. This new app makes it hard to do stuff.

Fizzywinegum · 27/03/2025 18:35

Jakub’s hair is still bad - it’s slightly disguised when he’s got his cap on!

JaneJeffer · 27/03/2025 18:36

Martina is delighted

0161 doesn't have much of a ring to it <ring, geddit>

305 made me think of a Peugeot. I thought maybe he was expecting to be given a vintage hatchback.

I don’t think I want to watch Aryna screeching

Raahh · 27/03/2025 18:52

Nope, me neither, much as I love watching Jasmine.

OP posts:
Raahh · 27/03/2025 20:25

Just seen that Aryna won- seemed fairly straighforward. Sad for Jasmine though.

Fizzywinegum · 27/03/2025 20:41

Ugh don’t think I can bear to watch Djok - I’ll just keep an eye on the score - come on Seb!

IceandIndigo · 27/03/2025 20:49

Well done Aryna. Come on Seb!

Happy 40th birthday to Stan Wawrinka! Bear I wonder if this will be his last year on tour?
