ICTJohnboy Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 5 minutes ago, Lex said: Would be something else if the youngster recovers from that first set to beat the goat in a grand slam semi, but stranger things have happened. Novak beats guys like this with such devastating routine that you just come to expect it. Shapovalov just lost a game there by stopping and challenging a ball that was on the line mid rally. Madness, looks like his head is going. He even suggested Hawkeye got that one wrong! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Five break points for Shapovalov in the second set so far, lost all five and it’s on serve at 3-3. He’s playing out his skin but he just can’t get it over the line. Can see him looking at his box like wtf more can I do here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadal saved 15 of 18 against Murray in the French Open semi in 2011. John Isner has converted one of about 50 break points in his career vs Andy Murray. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Naturally, Djokovic wins his first break point after the Canadian fails to win any of his first five. Another double fault on a clutch point. Serb now serving for the second set at 6-5 up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 And Novak wins it 7-5 to go two sets up.The youngster is getting a lesson in match play from the master here. Must be maddening to have played so well and be two sets down. Lost the head a bit at the umpire there but it was the right call. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
