I was talking about the draw as a whole, not just Gasquet as a first opponent. Top players all over his potential route. Even still, I think Gasquet is tough enough at this stage. No idea why you think he’s as good as could have been hoped for, as there were plenty of easier ones in the first round draw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His movement isn’t on the same level as it used to be also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Did you see him play at the Canadian Masters? Plus everything you said attributed to Gasquet can also be said of Murray. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Andy Murray has also announced he’ll play Zhuhai at the end of September.And also Beijing the week after. Obviously must be feeling fairly good at the moment if he is committing to these events. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 It will be interesting to see what he does about the US Open. Wildcards will be announced at the start of next week. He can get a main draw one if he wants - but might take one into qualifying to get more matches. Although he may just skip and play doubles.Interesting times that’s for sure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajwffc Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 he has said in an interview that Australia (France more likely) would be the earliest he would enter a Grands Slam singles tournament 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 He also said at Washington he would only play the US Open if he played Cinci. So it’s certainly not improbable. I think we are starting to see the beginning of the end for Serena, her body broke down again and was forced to retire after three games. Now a doubt for the US Open. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Why is this not on btsport? They've got tennis from Cincinnati. Thought it was? Haven't got BT Sport.I thought BT Sport only had the Women's events? Their deal was with the LTA I thought, not sure what happens with co-sanctioned events. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 BT has the rights to the WTA events only. All ATP events are on Amazon Prime. All tournaments will be on Prime from next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
