Liverpool in Istanbul is surely the greatest comeback ever?? giggetygiggetygooooNope. What makes it the greatest sporting comeback ever? Surely you've seen better and on bigger stages / against top opponents

The Aussie Open should play that retirement video for the craic.
This was incredible.
Cyborg after R1, Immortal after R2. Contemporary players should really have a look at themselves and then at Him to understand dedication, resilience and willpower.
Great defence, but Kokkinakis didn’t exactly cover himself in glory with those smashes.

He's lost his last three against RBA as well.Just looked to see if he had a big server who might play short points and give him some chance. Nope - it’s RBA next! A shame as that part of the draw is wide open and Murray would be favourite in a one-off match against any of them players he would face before the SF.
I wonder how much more he would have won without possibly the 3 greatest players ever alongside him.He's amazing, i genuinely think hes underrated in tennis because he was unfortunate enough to be around with the others.
Exceptionally good player and proving it still.
Woods is a good one. The tennis ones are equivalences for me, but furry muff. 99 United OK. Hence one of all time.
I hope he can stay fit this year and try to get a decent ranking by Wimbledon. I don’t know how likely it is that he can pull that back to being seeded? Feel like it’s always going to be an uphill battle otherwise.

I’d no idea they played so late. Is this normal for the Australian open and is it to suit european audience?
Yeh im just learning this too. Absolutely crazy to finish at that time.
If he stays fit and in current form, it should be doable for him to be seeded by Wimbledon. He doesn’t have any big points to defend and a couple of decent runs in some hard court tournaments will push him up the rankings. In the very unlikely event he was to win his next two matches here, for example, he’d be right on the edge of being seeded.
If he’s fully fit (as much as one with a bionic back can be) then he’s in with a shout of going deep on the grass. As you say, a good ranking will help.
Just seen Khachanov is two sets up vs Tiafoe. I'd always expect the top guys to beat Khachanov but he's a bit of a litmus test for some of the up and coming players. A bit less consistent than Rublev, they have obvious limitations but very solid players that beat who they should be more often than not.Three class matchups today.
Hurkacz vs Shapo
Khachanov vs Tiafoe
Korda vs Medvedev
