Djokovic is playing really well and Medvedev just looks directionless.

Medvedev looks rattled and confused. This could be over quickly.

Admittedly not watched a great deal of tennis recently but this Medvedev seems like a right dickhead. Thinks it's cool to be a bad boy but just looks like a little prick. Kygrios vibes.

He took it to 5 against Nadal when 2 sets and a break down in the USO final but this match feels gone.

Feels like no one including himself mentally prepared Medvedev for this match, almost as if he expected to just show up and Djokovic of all people will just roll over for him, in an AO final.

The body language throughout this set and the last couple games of the 2nd has been a disgrace.

Excellent performance from Djokovic. The first set was good to watch but Medvedev crumbled after that.

As good as his form has been and a decent head to head record, beating the big 3 in slam finals is an extremely tough ask.

That was so good from Djokovic, elevated his level for this and Medvedev couldn't cope.

18th grand slam and passes Federer for most weeks at no.1. At least he compensates a bit for that US Open incident and Wimbledon being cancelled last year, I think he can take one of those this year too if he plays like this

Djokovic was excellent and Medvedev really wasn’t. Grist to the mill.

Still can't believe how all bookies put 50:50 odd on Novak :lol:

17 GS in his prime vs 0 GS is 50:50 :lol:

Anti-vaxxers I'd assume. Seemed to especially boo when the vaccines were mentioned.
Was thinking that, but didn't think there'd be as many as that. cnuts

Disappointed for Medevev, but Novak was superb. Totally deserve this.

Can people not have differences of opinions any more? I'm sick of ant and pro sentiments. Why can't they both co exist? You don't know what the people have gone through there. Should we all lose our voices because it doesn't fit the narrative?

I think Medvedev was just neutralised by Novak. It's one of Novak's best performances for me. Truly great.

Meh, I'm not getting into this. But anti-vax people is more than just "not knowing what they've been through". I can 100% understand people being frustrated with lockdown and showing that frustration, but this is more than that. The speaker only expressed hope that the vaccines mean we can go back to normal life soon, and they started to boo. So ok, maybe not cnuts if we want to be specific. But idiots for sure

Why would anyone want to boo a comment about things going back to normal with a vaccine? Genuinely don’t understand.

Just that? No cramps at least?
:lol:

Mrs Smoker you always get to the heart of the matter :lol:

I don't think cramps would have stopped him today. He was so damn good.

By the way, do you know when Roger returns? I miss the old man.

Roger, the greatest tennis player of all time, is returning March 8, year of 2021. Preparations are made for the glorious return of Leader.


It's Qatar Open, only ATP 250, might even win it.

If you're in the UK, it will be Amazon Prime. They have the rights to all of the ATP and WTA tour matches, alongside the US Open.

Oh thanks mate! :) Thankfully I've got Amazon Prime, so I'm looking forward to this.
