Thiem rips another glorious backhand winner down the line.
The commentator (still anonymous to me) says it's a very modern backhand finish. The old way was to follow through so you point towards the ball, he says. Now they all flail away with open chest to get maximum speed, he says.
I say this is due to the racquet technology, which has made the game totally foreign.
Mary Carillo and Taylor Dent are the commentators.
Makes sense. Previously, Taylor was talking about his father (an Australian tennis player) in an anecdote about John McEnroe (who is Mary's friend and co-winner of a Grand Slam title!).
Thiem vs Zverev. Will be happy to see either player win it, but considering Thiem has already played in three losing finals, I'd like to see him finally breakthrough.
Whoever wins will be the first current player in their 20s to win a slam tournament, and it will be a first new slam winner since 2014 when Marin Cilic defeated Kei Nishikori at the US Open.
Osaka vs Azarenka. Head says Osaka wins, but heart says Azarenka wins to cap off a great comeback story.
Yep Osaka won in a good match and it was good it went to 2 sets but Osaka had a very good run in the us open and credit also to victoria too getting to the final.
Got Thiem to win in 4 close sets.
French Open is next in 3 weeks time so not a huge time frame between comps.
