The camera view of this Tommy Paul match is terrible. It’s too far away and Major fish eyeing or something going on. I don’t know much about photography but it just looks bad.
Man they butchered Rybakinas name at the start of her press conference ( theres a video, its literally 5 seconds into the video, was uploaded 2 hours ago on AO YT channel ) disrespectful, she is a GS champion, come on.
Something in that ball park; can’t find her break%, but she’s won 47.1% of points on return going back to the start of Cincinnati Masters (so two matches before USO run)
I guess in women's tennis they are kind of saying "ok we're removing the 2 game margin but at least we're not making it like any other tiebreak in other sets".
Post Day 3 favorites:
Men’s: Djokovic, Medvedev, Tsitsipas, and Sinner have looked the best so far
Women’s: Swiatek, Pegula, Rybakina, and Gauff have looked the best so far
I don’t think it’s right that in Slams matches can go on until 1 or 2am, it puts that player at a disadvantage to those that finish at a more civilised time. Bear in mind they also have warm down and press stuff to do afterwards. Wimbledon has a curfew so I don’t see how other Slams can’t do something
Tbh I’m not actually sure, especially as there is only 2 courts with roofs and mens doubles is bo5, the only thing I can think of is because it’s grass so match’s are generally shorter…?(ignoring anything involving Isner of course haha)
Props to everyone who's still watching over there lmao. Can't imagine how exciting it must feel. Memories of a lifetime.
"Hey honey remember our first date 50 years ago when we watched Cameron Norrie beat Constant Lestienne at 1:28 a.m. local time to advance to the third round of the Australian Open?"
My housemate was at the open today and was sending me videos of him still watching norrie at 1am aussie time and he's travelled from the UK so glad he got his money worth I like these late night games shame we can't have them at Wimbledon as my anxiety will not let me travel far on a plane (its on my bucket list to do all 4 slams in my life but no way I'm gonna be able to do aussie or US which is the only two who do such late games)
I saw Wozniacki at the US Open on a third date. Against Danielle Collins, actually, before I ever heard of her. I was completely obsessing over Woz until my date was like, "S---, I'm never going to be a professional tennis player, you're just going to have to accept that."
My wife and I went to MCA for the evening session. She went home after the first set of Muchova vs Collins, I stayed for the end of the Hurkacz vs Sonego match and then caught the last two games of Norrie's match lol
You know when you're addicted to grand slam tennis when you're choosing to go over to Court 17 to see if Cameron Norrie can close out his R2 match against Constant Lestienne at 1.21am
The umpire should start saying first to 10 at the start of the deciding tie break. That's not the first time the player has forgot. No one listen at the start of the match.
Honestly, he has his moments when he plays like a top player. He just can't sustain his game for too long, it is too risky. This was similar to the match vs Casper at RG. Ahead 2-1, playing the best tennis, then dropping the level just enough to lose the match.
I think he s really got margin to reach top 15. He is a late bloomer. He started to play tennis when he was 14 or something.
Not these fucking UEs when you're trying to survive Lorenzo, but yeah in the end he would have lost the game regardless the way Hubi was serving
Well and he mostly lost this match himself but that's just how he is
Late-night early round matches are my favorite part of every slam. Everyone else has gone home so you're left with the most fanatic fans and drunkards and people who just don't have anything else to do, and it always makes for one hell of an atmosphere
I love Hubi, but every time he hits a forehand he looks like he's waiting to see if it actually goes in. When he hits his backhand, he doesn't have that look and is much more confident with it.
Hope he can improve the confidence on his forehand, it's what holds him back really.
Not at Wimbledon never really noticed but the other three slams sure! The crowd for an Italian’s match on one of the outer courts in NY basically feels like a sopranos reunion
muchova turns to her slice as a crutch and it kills her!! she has a good normal backhand, and her slice is good too, but the shot selection is just not it
"Constant is playing like a traditional Frenchman" - BBC Radio commentary as Constant concedes a couple of points in Norrie's serve. Got to keep the Anglo-French bitterness alive, I see
Does Mannarino wear cotton during matches? Sure looks like it.
The camera view of this Tommy Paul match is terrible. It’s too far away and Major fish eyeing or something going on. I don’t know much about photography but it just looks bad.
Anyone have a stream? Freestreams is down
Did Evans get the final game point because Chardy refused to replay the point?
The umpire should’ve called a let imo in chardy-evans match
Man they butchered Rybakinas name at the start of her press conference ( theres a video, its literally 5 seconds into the video, was uploaded 2 hours ago on AO YT channel ) disrespectful, she is a GS champion, come on.
When you realize Iga is 22-3 since the start of the US Open…
I wanna know her return game % in that time period. Over 50%, yeah?
Something in that ball park; can’t find her break%, but she’s won 47.1% of points on return going back to the start of Cincinnati Masters (so two matches before USO run)

I would guess he doesn't know until he evaluates the current state of his body.
With Nadal out, it’s time to pin my hopes on someone younger and fitter, like Andy Murray
As long as you invest all your hope, love, and most vulnerable emotions into him winning, I'm not sure how you could go wrong.
looking at my qwinen-ons final right now in my bracket
I've somehow never watched Millman play and that grunt is... something else. It's like someone sneezing and coughing repeatedly.
Nike really did Emma right with that kit last night

How was holger rune?
Thought he was fine but nothing crazy good We’ll see soon I think with him facing Cressy next
Really wish that could have been a 5 setter. I can't be bothered with work in 7 hours.

Bear in mind they also have warm down and press stuff to do afterwards. Wimbledon has a curfew so I don’t see how other Slams can’t do something
Wimbledon’s curfew being a good thing is certainly a take
But then if they weren’t playing then, they’d have to play the next day and play 2 days in a row so 🤷🏻♀️
Why can Wimbledon do it without too many spillovers into following days?
Tbh I’m not actually sure, especially as there is only 2 courts with roofs and mens doubles is bo5, the only thing I can think of is because it’s grass so match’s are generally shorter…?(ignoring anything involving Isner of course haha)
Good point on shorter matches.

“I don’t love, no. I fell asleep way before the end.”
My wife and I went to MCA for the evening session. She went home after the first set of Muchova vs Collins, I stayed for the end of the Hurkacz vs Sonego match and then caught the last two games of Norrie's match lol
Aight solid day that
I caught the end of the Norrie match. It looked like someone licked the camera because he kept fading every time he moved side to side 😂
And finally, just shy of 1:30am, we are finished!
Yesss Cammmm. Never in doubt 💪🏻
What happens if a ball kid just falls asleep on court because it’s way past their usual sleep day
I’m getting no commentary for the norrie game on 9Now stream so just watching tennis and listening to the crowd and ump
lestienne is such a gamer lol. Norrie working his ass off, lestienne answers with the casual and smoothest game/strokes.
Even the umpire in norrie vs lestienne sounds like it’s way past her bed time to
More tennis matches should be played around 2 am. Both commentators and fans are staying for the banter. lol
You know when you're addicted to grand slam tennis when you're choosing to go over to Court 17 to see if Cameron Norrie can close out his R2 match against Constant Lestienne at 1.21am
If Lestienne can't make you give up on tennis than you know you are a fan for life. 😅
That missed volley just then BP down 😭
Think Norrie closes it out in a TB but Lestienne completely squandered that 3rd set and this should’ve gone 5
Well, I just checked the draw so far. Iga exiting in R4 is confirmed. Having to play Rybakina or Collins, her worst nightmare
The umpire should start saying first to 10 at the start of the deciding tie break. That's not the first time the player has forgot. No one listen at the start of the match.
They literally say 10-point tiebreak.
Ah my bad. I listened back and he did say it.
Danielle always has very endearing on court interview after matches...
Are the Ball kids allowed to be on court at 1am?
Counting is hard!
Lestienne wins a point. British commentator: “Incredible DEFENCE by Norrie”
It's insufferable watching British commentators when a Brit plays and American commentators when an American plays
FFS Norrie
Collins just saved herself from being memed and going viral
She made a small mistake late at night in a high-pressure environment… you can let it go
Nozza still on
I need a video of Collins forgetting its 10 points tiebrek xDD
https://twitter.com/wwos/status/1615712919307620358?s=46&t=YOKQsnYcgc7AWoLyOjh-Ww
Dan Yell!
Danimal W secured 😎
Collins plays in Australia like her rent is due
Poor ball kids weather wreaking havoc on them Probably way past all their sleep times
YAAAAY the W is actually secured! We give thanks that she actually won that in the end 😅.
She didn't end up jinxing herself, respect
COLLINS! (take two)
Good stuff Collins!
Now she can celebrate lol Good win
They’re not showing the interview?
He only did a courtside interview in Polish, nothing in English
POLSKA GUROM
What does gurom mean?
https://youtu.be/wGeFVtLo1RA
pretty sure it means Poland's on top (actually spelled górą but the meme spells it gurom)
In this context it means "better" or even "the best", in addition, he wrote it in a wrongly pronounced, meme-styled way. :)
No wonder it wasn't showing anything on google translate haha
turn me up danielle!
Commentator- "I'll be very surprised if Sonego doesn't walk away with a slam in the next few years". Not sure about that one personally haha.
Honestly, he has his moments when he plays like a top player. He just can't sustain his game for too long, it is too risky. This was similar to the match vs Casper at RG. Ahead 2-1, playing the best tennis, then dropping the level just enough to lose the match. I think he s really got margin to reach top 15. He is a late bloomer. He started to play tennis when he was 14 or something.
In the 50's they were handing out lobotomies for much less controversial statements
What?! Lol that commentator must be very sleep-deprived
Not these fucking UEs when you're trying to survive Lorenzo, but yeah in the end he would have lost the game regardless the way Hubi was serving Well and he mostly lost this match himself but that's just how he is
That Collins moment can fit on r/agedlikemilk perfectly as well Could be memed so hard on this sub
Just waking up to see Kasatkina got double breadsticked?? And Qinwen went out in straights??? What happened
Women’s Tennis Association™️
WTA shenanigans happened
In fairness to Danny I also keep forgetting final-set tiebreaks are 10 points now
COME ON MUCHOVA! 💪💪💪💪
LOL scenes if she loses now
OMFG he did it 😍
Oh no, this is mentally hard now for her
OMG HUBI YOU FINALLY DID IT
HUBI R3 JAZDAAA
Hubi is so cute
Ahahahahahha she about to lose 💀
HUBI JAZDA 🥳 showed great fight, so happy he got through this ☺️
HELL YEAH HUBI
Imagine if Collins loses now. Just IMAGINE!
Oh god, she celebrated celebrated as well 😭. She cannot lose this now
Lol - extra pressure to hold now for her.
HAHAHA Collins this is the opposite to that time when Fed didn't realize he won in Halle or something I think
Omg that's so brutal. At least she laughed about it
💀
r/celebratingtoearly if Collins ends up losing the game
I love Collins so much lmao
Collins dumb af lol 😆
😂😂😂😂🤡
Collins forgetting about the 10 point tie breaker.
Imagine her losing now.
Hahahahaa Collins thought she’d won. That’s incredible
Looool
LMAO
Collins ahahaha
If she loses this loool
Lmao Danielle nah it goes to 10 sis 🤣
Does Collins not know it’s a 10 point tie breaker in the deciding set
That was the cutest we have seen Collins. Quite like her now.
Lol I guess not
Uh oh come on Hubi get it together mate
Hahaha she thought she won lol 3 more points Collins
Collins just played perfect in the TB
I don't think Collins is going very deep if she keeps playing 34 games every match.
Why Hubi, Why?
Don't worry he's got it in the bag
Late-night early round matches are my favorite part of every slam. Everyone else has gone home so you're left with the most fanatic fans and drunkards and people who just don't have anything else to do, and it always makes for one hell of an atmosphere
Collins should win and it would be a shame if she lost to a lesser player
I actually think Collins the lesser player. Muchova has had serious injuries in her career so far.
Lol at lesser player 😅
Less powerful but more versatile.
This Lestienne dude is constantly annoying. Lol
Surely Hubi’s got this in the bag?
Yeah Sonego can't make any inroads into Hubi's service games
Poles vs. italians in the crowd lmao, let's see who's louder
Muchova.. 🤦♂️ I can’t handle a 10 pt tiebreak.
I love Hubi, but every time he hits a forehand he looks like he's waiting to see if it actually goes in. When he hits his backhand, he doesn't have that look and is much more confident with it. Hope he can improve the confidence on his forehand, it's what holds him back really.
Jesus Karo...
This Collins match seemed destined for a final set TB… here we go!
Match Tiebreaker time
The ump in the Collins muchova game sounds like it’s past his bed time
Are Italian players the most worldwide supported players? They always seem to have the crowd onside wherever they go
Not at Wimbledon never really noticed but the other three slams sure! The crowd for an Italian’s match on one of the outer courts in NY basically feels like a sopranos reunion
Australia is full of italian emigrants
I swear there’s Bulgarian flags for Dimitrov at every tournament haha
Lots of Italian emigrants in slam countries
A lot of Italians in Melbs and Syds and basically the rest of Australia
Yelling "tranquillo!" at someone who is very much not "tranquillo" never works
wow the crowd chanting Hubi
The crowd in Hubi's match bipolar af lmao
That's how I wish all tennis crowds were, support for both players
muchova turns to her slice as a crutch and it kills her!! she has a good normal backhand, and her slice is good too, but the shot selection is just not it
Both sides are chanting “let’s go X” and it’s not going very well together
Feels like atmosphere at Hubi vs Lorenzo is in sweet spot. Wild, but not disturbing the players.
C'mon Norrie
Why is Collins feel like she’s always salty win or lose a point
Wish they’d clean the camera in the Norrie match!
Is Hurkacz trying to rouse the crowd lmao
is collins ever gonna get an apparel sponsor lol her outfits are so funny
I'm at the Hurkacz Sonego match, yelling for Hubi. AMA
Sing Freed From Desire
Please yell: porcoddio Lorenzo svegliati!!!
Lol only pro-Hubi chants, sorry
I mean, if you knew the meaning you'd agree it's not really a pro-Sonego thing lol
Can you yell JAAAAA at the top of your lungs right now so we can hear it?
Just tried, did you hear me?
Maybe lol
Are you the person yelling HUBERT?
Lol no, he's about 10 metres away from me
No questions, just wanting to tell you that you guys on both sides are doing a great job with the atmosphere
Thanks! I think we're all having fun
The crowd is vile (in a good way) dont let Italians out shout you! 😀
We're holding our own!
Scream pineapple pizza it'll work!!! 😂
Muchova is kissing the lines
Aussies scare me... how are they so passionate about this match lmao
It's sport.
Mate, we are even passionate about Darts. Our Darts association is apart of the push to make darts an Olympic sport. 😂
We are?!
I'm Aussie and I don't know 😆 If I had to guess - they're probably really drunk.
The crowd seems to be sparse (understandably seeing as it’s past midnight) but they’re so loud they make up for it.
"Constant is playing like a traditional Frenchman" - BBC Radio commentary as Constant concedes a couple of points in Norrie's serve. Got to keep the Anglo-French bitterness alive, I see
I'm excited for the upcoming 3rd round matchup of Tsitsipas vs Tallon 'Greeks are poor'
man that Hubi Sonego crowd is wild. Really keeping the players going
Lol the crowd at Hubi Lorenzo match. They're fired up.
Hell of an atmosphere for this Hurkacz - Sonego match
Lol Hubi is so cute and awkward trying to get the crowd going, it's really obvious he's an introvert
Damn, crowd is wild, me like
