This tie break has been so good.

 

[Jono]

Wow that is brilliant from Pliskova. This could be it!

 

[_Ed_]

Whoa.

 

[Jono]

double fault to end it

 

[Jono]

That's so good from Pliskova to weather that.

Kerber is #1 now right?

 

[Jono]

Yep she is.

Wonder if it will affect her at all vs. Woz tonight

 

[Niall]

Good stuff that from Pliskova, Serena's legs at times seemed to fail her, but Pliskova was more clutch when needed.

A nice fresh final to look forward to.

 

[Anil]

kerber vs pliskova it is...

 

[Cabinet96]

He's probably better placed than he has ever been. His form since Wimbledon has been elite.

Ominous thing for Gael is that Djokovic was actually playing quite badly before their game in Canada and still won 6-3 6-2.

 

[Jono]

Yeah his game doesn't suit Monfils.

No doubt he's a massive underdog. But if he's ever going to win a slam match against Novak in his career to date its probably this one.

Well, yeah.

 

[Cabinet96]

What an absolute dog of a set.

 

[Niall]

Utterly dire performance from Monfils so far, Youzhny put up more of an effort than this

 

[Niall]

Ahoy, a match is about to break out, Monfils a break up in the third.

 

[Cabinet96]

Cluster **** of a match bar some good rallies in the 3rd set.

 

[Niall]

Crappy enough match, Novak was dragged down to Monfils level in the third set.

 

[Jono]

Nishi well on top but Stan breaks back in the second.

You feel that Nishi needs to win in 3 or 4 to have a chance to best Novak

 

[Jono]

Wow Stanimal that is a great fight back from a set and break down.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Djokovic-Monfils was such a woeful match.

 

[Jono]

McEnroe decidrs that Kyrgios isn't enough. Sprays the **** out of Monfils too.

Monfils was asked the question about it and answered gracefully in the presser. Both nk and Monfils have too much respect for mcenroe and his legacy to respond criticising him.
