Tennis: US Open 2017

[Hadoop]

Heckova match. Hoping Venus goes all the way.

 

[CupofOil]

WOW, what a classic. Best match (men or women) that I've seen in years which is saying a lot considering all the recent classics even in this tournament alone. Just amazing that Venus can play at that level at 37 beating Kvitova who was playing her A game. Would love to see an All American semi and Venus to go all the way.

Who wins tonight Sammy or Kevin?

Sam. Kevin is the very worst closer in the game right now, one of the worst in history regardless of gender. This is the sort of match where Anderson eventually always screws up.

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

There is a good chance that we will have three American black women in the semifinals of the US Open. How cool is that?

It's amazing to see; remarkable really. The future is in good hands on the women's side.

Who wins tonight Sammy or Kevin?

Sam; 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, 6-7(3), 6-3

 

[kihei]

I wouldn't use the word "phlegmatic" to describe many professional tennis players but it sure fits Sam like a glove.

 

[kihei]

Anderson has gotten to the US Open quarterfinals once before. In the three other Slams he has only gotten to the fourth round, but he has done it three times in each tournament. The more I think about that, the more hilarious it gets. His tournament ends here, tonight.

Sam; 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, 6-7(3), 6-3

I hope you're wrong and this ends in 3. zzzzzz...

I hope you're wrong and this ends in 3. zzzzzz...

I've already resorted to throwing it on as background noise.

 

[kihei]

Good. Let him win another set just to make it interesting.

 

[La Masse]

Two mediocre players going at it

 

[MsMeow]

Look at all the empty seats.

Kihei are u going to see the Riggs/King movie?

 

[ColePens]

Was that Erik Karlsson?

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

Oh wonderful. The mindless and idiotic "U-S-A! U-S-A!" chants have begun.

C'mon people. It's not hard to do better than that.

 

[kihei]

There's my Kevin. Double faults into the net on game point with a 4-3 lead.

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

Anderson's brain just short circuited.

 

[kihei]

Look at all the empty seats.

Kihei are u going to see the Riggs/King movie?

When it comes out in theatres, not at TIFF, which actually has two other tennis movies this year, Love Means Nothing, a documentary on tennis coach Nick Bollettieri and Borg/McEnroe which looks godawful. Shia LaBouef as McEnroe. Yuck.

 

[ColePens]

Omg what a shot by Sam.

 

[ColePens]

That shot... changed the nature of this breaker.

 

[kihei]

Ha, ha, Kevin missed that easy forehand by eight feet.

 

[kihei]

Hhhmmmmm

 

[Know Your Enemy]

lol these guys

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

This is hilarious.

 

[Know Your Enemy]

AHAHAHAHA. This is good comedy

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

That is pathetic. 3 put away opportunities. LMFAO...
