Re: October 2018 Challengers

What's more disappointing is he lost after being a break up in both the second and the third sets. He was 4-1 up in the third when I stopped following.

Re: Leander Paes thread...

I disagree with PKB sir. Why would he withdraw a couple of days prior to the Asian Games? He evidently signed up for wildcard at Winston Salem, so obviously it was a premeditated decision. Him withdrawing a day before the games was awful. It's unfair to not criticise him simply because he is a legen...

Re: Tennis Asian Games 2018, Indonesia - Jakarta Palembang 2018

Might be slightly off topic, but Paes is playing at Winston Salem. I don't know what to make of it, but it doesn't look very good.

And yet people will say it's justified because he's a legend.

Paes is a legend no doubt. But he's just taking this sheen of his achievements by doing all this. For shame. Extremely unprofessional and arrogant.

Re: Kazakh/Uzbek Challengers, June 2018

Saki Setkic tied at 1 set all. Saki won the first set on a tiebreak, after missing 10 BP opportunities. He was a break up in the second, but lost serve twice to lose it 4-6. C'mon Saki!

Anyone knows what Saki's schedule looks like next?

Re: Wimbledon 2018

While I'm barely an expert, I felt that Yuki makes a lot of errors on shots which are not either inside out forehands or cross court backhands. He was majorly shanking his cross court forehands and down the line backhands. This has seem like the trend whenever I've watched him. Mental side is an asp...

Re: Wimbledon 2018

Straight set losses for all 3 in QR1 itself; that should calm down expectations for a while. What a terrible performance. I agree. A few of us tend to become a bit like Sr Lankan cricket commentators sometimes. While the current set of players are among the best we've had in a long time, I think we...

Re: Wimbledon 2018

I'm a huge fan of Prajnesh, but it needs to be kept in mind that Stuttgart was his first ever grass tournament. While he has played well thus far, he's played a clay court game on grass court. This was always going to be a challenge against someone like Kamke. Hopefully he improves his grass court g...

Re: Kazakh/Uzbek Challengers, June 2018

4-3 in the second, on serve. Saki has upped his game. Milojevic is continuing to play well. But Saki breaks Milojevic at 6-5 and wins the second set 7-5. His third 3 setter in a weak. I hope his body holds up. He gets broken the first game and is down 0-1 in the third. Went for an I'll advised serve...

Re: Kazakh/Uzbek Challengers, June 2018

Saki's making too many unforced errors. Milojevic is also playing some good tennis. He loses the first set 4-6. C'mon Saki. Time to step up!

Re: Kazakh/Uzbek Challengers, June 2018

Saki's match has begun. He's down a break early. 2-3 with Milojevic to serve, who is serving rather well.

Re: Kazakh/Uzbek Challengers, June 2018

He's going to be playing his 10th and 11th matches this week tomorrow. That's insane especially for someone on a comeback trial
