have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Sunday, 28 August 2016 14:56 (nine years ago)

when i went last year for the final weekend i saw the men's wheelchair final, which was AMAZING. haven't seen early-round play so i'm not sure how deep the sport is, but definitely watch that japanese dude if you can

Poor Little Rich Girl CoCo Vandeweghe on Naomi Osaka: "The fact that she's won matches at slams surprises me." And that is why you will not be missed, CoCo. Thrilled that Osaka sent her on her merry way in r1.

johnny crunch, Monday, 29 August 2016 22:21 (nine years ago)

Zheng Saisai has a charmingly ugly game

johnny crunch, Thursday, 1 September 2016 02:41 (nine years ago)

forgot to mention how hideous the nike mandated fluorescent gear for this season is, gddamn

johnny crunch, Thursday, 1 September 2016 21:02 (nine years ago)

Serena's dress is great though!

cerealbar, Thursday, 1 September 2016 21:53 (nine years ago)

yea agree

johnny crunch, Thursday, 1 September 2016 23:27 (nine years ago)

super impressed with Naomi Broady earlier, went toe to toe with Aga in the first set

cerealbar, Friday, 2 September 2016 00:08 (nine years ago)

really enjoying these Roddick periscope commentaries https://twitter.com/andyroddick/status/771495764799295488

cerealbar, Friday, 2 September 2016 00:08 (nine years ago)

damn i didnt get to see any of it but was hoping tipsy would advance

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 00:29 (nine years ago)

this delpo/stevie johnson match cld be p good

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 00:54 (nine years ago)

damn stevie w the sick running forehand xcourt off delpos forehand

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 02:00 (nine years ago)

looking like a karlovic/jared donaldson matchup to get to the 4th rd o_O

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 03:10 (nine years ago)

baghdatis/ryan harrison winner similarly gets 4th rd

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 03:17 (nine years ago)

theres kindof a soft middle of the mens tour rn

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 03:20 (nine years ago)

5th set tiebreak simon/lorenzi

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 03:31 (nine years ago)

evans/zverev is on ct 4, a really small ct that must be sick to watch irl

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 03:43 (nine years ago)

IVO

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 03:54 (nine years ago)

another late nite foggy match, going 5

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 04:03 (nine years ago)

i love both fab and ferrer btw hard to know who im rooting for

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 04:09 (nine years ago)

both these guys are so tuff

johnny crunch, Friday, 2 September 2016 04:51 (nine years ago)

its hard for me to believe sock handled cilic as easily as the scoreline appears

johnny crunch, Saturday, 3 September 2016 01:33 (nine years ago)

One point shy of three British men in the last 16. I'm not sure that's happened in the Open era - maybe during the ATP boycott (Wimb '73) or maybe Chris Wilkinson strung three wins together in the Tim'n'Greg years.

Just watched highlights of Venus on Eurosport website; she won one and two and almost every point in the highlight reel was one she lost. Bit too Euro.

Djokovic goes into Edmund match with 30min competitive court-time in the last five days. I'm not sure what this means. Rusty? Rested? Probably wins in three anyhow.

Michael Jones, Sunday, 4 September 2016 12:12 (nine years ago)

insane monf/baghdad pt rn

johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 September 2016 15:22 (nine years ago)

god i fucking love monfils

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Sunday, 4 September 2016 16:56 (nine years ago)

i like this latvian girl

johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 September 2016 17:02 (nine years ago)

hadn't paid too much attention to her story before now but liked her post-match interview. Konta had a shocker today

cerealbar, Sunday, 4 September 2016 17:12 (nine years ago)

cant believe woz is back in this good form

johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 September 2016 18:04 (nine years ago)

damn pouille

johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 September 2016 19:50 (nine years ago)

this rafa/luca pooey match has been sick

johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 September 2016 22:09 (nine years ago)

yup great stuff

cerealbar, Sunday, 4 September 2016 22:58 (nine years ago)

3 frenchmen in the qtrs!

johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 September 2016 23:31 (nine years ago)

watching Venus- Pliskova through my fingers. that net chord to give Pliskova the break was brutal

cerealbar, Monday, 5 September 2016 19:32 (nine years ago)

and Venus saves 3 MPs to take it to a tie break

cerealbar, Monday, 5 September 2016 19:33 (nine years ago)

feel like now Pliskova's started reaching slam quarter finals she'll never stop

cerealbar, Monday, 5 September 2016 19:56 (nine years ago)

WS the chair ump for karlovic/nishikori

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Monday, 5 September 2016 21:22 (nine years ago)

i was hoping ivo could stay w nishi a lil more

johnny crunch, Monday, 5 September 2016 21:35 (nine years ago)

i just watched the jimmy connors 1991 30 for 30 while high, highly recommended

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Monday, 5 September 2016 22:54 (nine years ago)

good insights from johnny mac on dimitrov's footwork

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Monday, 5 September 2016 23:44 (nine years ago)

oh man what defense from murray

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Monday, 5 September 2016 23:45 (nine years ago)

murray's on another level right now, dimitrov doesn't stand a chance

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 6 September 2016 00:03 (nine years ago)

yea grigor isnt playing terribly, murray just looks super tough rn

johnny crunch, Tuesday, 6 September 2016 01:08 (nine years ago)

he does do that a lot, but he's been pretty focused this set! i mean the general roller coaster nature of the set, the bizarre decision to serve and volley on SECOND SERVES against the best returner of all time, the drop shots, the court coverage, the crazy angles...this is what makes him so exciting to watch

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:13 (nine years ago)

i'm pulling for him

jason waterfalls (gbx), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:13 (nine years ago)

also, i am now noticing for the first time something that dfw pointed out in one of his tennis essays: the pros really do have hypertrophic serving/favored arms!

jason waterfalls (gbx), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:14 (nine years ago)

oh yeah they're huge, any semi-serious player will have hypertrophic forearm muscles but the pros, if you ever see them in person, are alien-like

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:16 (nine years ago)

monfils is such a ham

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:23 (nine years ago)

what in the heck

jason waterfalls (gbx), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:27 (nine years ago)

uh oh, novak calling the trainer now

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:40 (nine years ago)

mcenroe is still bagging on monfils!

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Friday, 9 September 2016 21:57 (nine years ago)

there's no quit in this young man

mookieproof, Saturday, 10 September 2016 00:42 (nine years ago)

has been a battle

johnny crunch, Saturday, 10 September 2016 00:53 (nine years ago)

does stan have a zit on his nose y/n

mookieproof, Saturday, 10 September 2016 00:56 (nine years ago)

mercy roof closing for the a/c

johnny crunch, Saturday, 10 September 2016 00:57 (nine years ago)

stan impresses me often

johnny crunch, Saturday, 10 September 2016 01:09 (nine years ago)

12 straight points

mookieproof, Saturday, 10 September 2016 01:15 (nine years ago)

i meant 10, but still

mookieproof, Saturday, 10 September 2016 01:16 (nine years ago)

stan/novak is the most boring semi result :(

have you ever even read The Drudge Report? Have you gone on Stormfron (k3vin k.), Saturday, 10 September 2016 04:39 (nine years ago)

who doesn't think kerber will win the third set 6-1 or something

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 21:47 (nine years ago)

I don't

mookieproof, Saturday, 10 September 2016 21:50 (nine years ago)

hmm you're right

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 21:55 (nine years ago)

was some wishful thinking tbh, pliskova has a really, really dull game

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:00 (nine years ago)

the fuck are these unforced errors

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:03 (nine years ago)

this is more like it, brilliant hold

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:16 (nine years ago)

and there's the collapse. took longer than i thought, but the way pliskova celebrated getting to 4-4 as if she'd won the whole thing...didn't get another point

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:28 (nine years ago)

broken at love is a tough way to lose

mookieproof, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:29 (nine years ago)

good job by herb

johnny crunch, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:39 (nine years ago)

lmao kerb*

johnny crunch, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:39 (nine years ago)

stan/novak is the most boring semi result :(

makes for the best final though

johnny crunch, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:39 (nine years ago)

that prize money! jesus

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:42 (nine years ago)

yeah that was genuinely surprising to me -- i am learning so much

jason waterfalls (gbx), Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:43 (nine years ago)

she and whoever wins tomorrow should keep 300k and split the rest amongst the tour

imago, Saturday, 10 September 2016 22:45 (nine years ago)

i turn this on for one minute and it's the best point ever lol

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 21:18 (nine years ago)

oh my, wawrinka stepped up there

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 21:44 (nine years ago)

this is kind of a great final

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 22:08 (nine years ago)

wawrinka is playing some GOAT tennis y/n

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 22:32 (nine years ago)

this stan fellow is pretty good

mookieproof, Sunday, 11 September 2016 22:39 (nine years ago)

lol jinx

mookieproof, Sunday, 11 September 2016 22:46 (nine years ago)

this is an incredible match, so much so that it's kind of exhausting

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:00 (nine years ago)

yea i only just tuned in but this is a heavyweight fight

johnny crunch, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:16 (nine years ago)

probably gonna dream about stan's down-the-line backhands 2nite

mookieproof, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:28 (nine years ago)

another one

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:30 (nine years ago)

Amazing that Stan has only beaten Nole 4 times in 23 attempts but causes him SO MUCH trouble at the Slams.

Michael Jones, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:30 (nine years ago)

and another one

imago, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:31 (nine years ago)

Nole still ahead on points - he built up quite the lead with that first set of love-holds and fistful of b-ps on Stan's serve.

Michael Jones, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:34 (nine years ago)

Stan finally up 122-120 in that category.

Michael Jones, Sunday, 11 September 2016 23:39 (nine years ago)

god i wish i could watch this

jason waterfalls (gbx), Monday, 12 September 2016 00:03 (nine years ago)

Well, well.

Win Wimbledon next year and that's a Career Slam in 3.5 years.

Michael Jones, Monday, 12 September 2016 00:20 (nine years ago)

unbelievable level

imago, Monday, 12 September 2016 00:23 (nine years ago)

stans amazing

johnny crunch, Monday, 12 September 2016 00:26 (nine years ago)

11 final wins in a row for Stan is the maddest thing. gotta say, to counteract all the hate he gets, Djokovic is consistently a v gracious loser

cerealbar, Monday, 12 September 2016 00:26 (nine years ago)

And Dan Evans had a match point against this guy. Dan Evans.

Michael Jones, Monday, 12 September 2016 00:31 (nine years ago)
