TENNIS - Asian Swing

[JaneJeffer]

Sorry for boring title

Daniil is doing well- although I made the mistake of going in the kitchen and Sky switched channels to the Carlos match. I'd quite like to watch the nd of this end , thanks.

ooh- Rick Astley.

That was funny .

I think Carlos is morphing into a baddy from a Spaghetti Western. In sportswear.

Carlos' team are all dressing the same now too, just like Jannik's.

Perhaps they’re confused about when Movember starts.

It adds fuel to @JaneJeffer 's jobshare theory.

Well done Daniil, very comprehensive win.

Dalibor has had a good week though.

Daniil vs Stef R16 incoming (grabs popcorn).

Ice that should be good, especially since Stef seems to be playing really well.

Here’s hoping for some bullshit Russian and you better shut your fuck up

Apparently, Carlos had a bet with his team that they would all grow moustaches if he won the Japan Open. Interesting to see at what stages of growth they all get to. Obviously, Carlos would take about 2 days for a full on tache, given how quickly his hair grows

Carlos is having a rant

I've never seen Carlos quite so animated.

Yes, Carlos can probably grow a full beard in a a couple of weeks .

ooh.

Good first set there from Zizou. Carlos needs to clean things up. I think he was complaining about the balls?

This is a looooong toilet break from Zizou.

Oh dear Carlos.

Carlos is very off his game today- but all credit to Bergs for not showing any nerves and playing really well. With soggy shoes

I suppose the come back was expected- and they did set up the 'Bergs chokes on big points ' thing.

Well done Zizou.

Hopefully Carlos will shave the moustache now.

Well done Zizou- he served really well.

Carlos was not 100%, but Bergs did well.

Well done Zizou. Carlos is such a gent

Will the tache be binned now?

He really is. He's still in recovery mode, in many respects- they mentioned Delpo and Domi Thiem during the match. It is always a worry that an injury like he had could be career ending.

But Zizou did very well.
