Beyond fantastic to have Andy back in the singles. Back in January didn't dare dream it could be a possibility. Obviously can't keep a good man down. Couldn't care less who he faces, like lovetennis says just ecstatic he's in the draw :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
I'm surprised you can't all hear my squeal of delight!

Andy will play Richard Gasquet in R1 at Cincy!
Quite a blast from the past as matches go, and Muzzah leads their H2H 8-3.
He's playing singles and doubles. I hope he has a good run in both of them.

They haven't had easy draws, have they?
Perhaps not, but the field is very strong, most matches would be tough. But spare a thought for Stefanos...his draw is a nightmare: Struff, Medvedev, Federer, Djoko, maybe Nadal!!

What a way to come back....singles and doubles! So happy :maggie:
Go Andy :knight:
Wow he's not doing things by half is he? Whilst I understand he may be hedging his bets by entering both, it has to be a sign of how good he's feeling physically.

Agreed, Mrs P - a great sign that he's feeling good. I bet that with the US open looming he's trying to build himself up to best of 5. He's said all along that he won't rush his return so fantastic that he feels genuinely able to push himself :yahoo:

What's with these mustard coloured shorts they're (nearly) all wearing? They end up wet - it looks dreadful!
Today's OOP (https://www.atptour.com/en/scores/current/cincinnati/422/daily-schedule).
What's with these mustard coloured shorts they're (nearly) all wearing? They end up wet - it looks dreadful!
Agree. They're like something out of Dad's Army. Where's Nike's style police? - Missing as usual.

And last night both Khachanov and NK were wearing white shirts with those vile coloured shorts. Btw: NK acted like a complete ****head. Honestly, he needs to get a ***** grip. He really wears my patience. The man is sooo naturally talented yet behaves worse than a spoiled toddler. I want to like him so much and he just irritates me no end.

Roger being outplayed by Rublev - another new talent.

Roger taken out by Rublev in straights. Not a huge fan of Rublev tho'. He reminds me of Davydenko; he always looks so intense and miserable and makes such a noise on court.

Nike's gear is so consistently awful I actually think there's a Nike designer somewhere laughing his/her socks off, thinking I'll design this really awful stuff and see if they'll wear it. And of course they do wear it because they're being paid to.

I'm watching Denis/Boppy vs Cabal/Farah and three of them are wearing green shirts and white shorts. They really need to have more than two designs!

Is it just me or has Andy had work done to his teeth? They look very white and very straight. Anyone else notice it?

Yes, he has had his teeth done. I read it somewhere.

His teeth were done shortly after his hip op. Now that Andy has pulled out of US Open I won't feel so bad being away the first week in Italy!
I've heard he could play against his brother at about 8pm (20.00pm) today. The BBC were right about him playing next week.

On ATP site now says Andy and Lopez not before 4.30 pm.

I am away too. In the US but Florida not NYC. I was hoping to catch some matches on the TV but won't feel as bad about it now.

28m (https://twitter.com/russellcfuller/status/1162401571201835010)Andy says it sucks; Jamie says it’s not a natural thing to do. But at about 8pm UK time tonight, the Murray brothers will face off in Cincinnati..
Sallydaisy
16-08-2019, 17:16
Aah, I think it must mean 4.30pm in Cincy so 9.30pm in the UK which is what Hawkeye posted in t'other thread.

I've no idea how the 8pm time quoted fits into that.

The prior doubles QF to the Murrays is about to start (Cabal/Farah v Kontinen /Peers) so if they don't overrun their slot it'll be Andy/Feli v Jamie /Neal not before 9.30pm UK time.

Meddybear d DjokerNole for a place in the Final against Goffin.
:thumbup:
Match point to Medvedev...3-6, 6-3, 6-3 !!!
:thumbup: ....
Hopefully Goffin gets the win, but Meddy is so on the ball!
Wow! Medvedev was amazing. Such serving, esp 2nd serves. So good to have a final between 2 players who have not yet won a masters 1000. And also a match where the outcome is not a foregone conclusion.
Well done, Medvedev - it's great to see two first timers in a Masters final. :thumbup: I'd like to see Goffin win but Medvedev has lost two finals in the last two weeks, so maybe it's his time to shine. :shrug:
oop for Sunday - https://www.atptour.com/en/scores/current/cincinnati/422/daily-schedule
Final of Medvedev vs Goffin not before 9.00 pm - could overrun if women's final goes on over 2 hours (including time for trophy presentation).

Best of luck to little Goffin this evening - heart hopes he can muster all his elegance and shotmaking to get the win, but head says Medvedev will be just a bit too powerful. We shall see, but nice that one way or another we'll see a new winner get a masters :thumbup:

Your head was absolutely right Anna! I'm sorry David didn't do it, but I kind of like Daniil too. He's 'growing' on me! Lovely speeches from both of them.

Ugh all those empty seats!!! That was hard to see. Happy for Meddy but tbh I find his play kinda dull.
