Sinner never says die

Go Tsitsipas, rooting for you

Can Fucosvics break here, or will Sinner hold to get 3rd set. Set point now..

NJ : Go Fucsovics

Sinner serving for the 3rd set, can he make a come back here, looking to close this set first.

What an awesome shot by Sinner

Jannik the Murray copycat

Sinner gets the break to go 4-0 in the 3rd set. Still down two sets.

Tsitsipas is playing, can't wait to root for him. Any Griekspoor fans here?

Fucsovics is up against Sinner. Go Fucsovics ! Glad to see him make his return.

Are there any streams available? Sorry if this has been asked before

Went to bed at the start of the fourth set. Woke up to find out Murray somehow won. Mad. Lad. 🦿

Oh man, I have watched the 5 smash-returns rally soooo many times

Who is this for?

https://www.reddit.com/r/tennis/comments/10g2c58/andy_murray_defending_like_its_2016_again/

Thanks!!!!! Here was me going to be with Murray 2 sets down feeling sad… THAT IS AMAZING

Why is the interviewer getting hate? Did he say anything rude or offensive?

https://youtu.be/ho2\_K5jNvY8?t=64

I’m so excited to watch Alcaraz/Sinner/Rune careers

I'm excited to watch Alcaraz/Sinner ruin careers, too

Jesus. That felt like a finals game

This is realistically the best chance Andy will get at a Grand slam semi. The draw is wide open. I just fear 10 hours of tennis may have taken it out of him for the next round

I mean, Connors did it, so……….but realistically, I think this is more of Agassi’s last US Open when he survives and then loses to Benjamin Becker. 2 5-setters given his physical limitations and RBA, that’s sort of like the nail in the coffin unless you have some magic fairy dust, which Connors proved can happen. But not likely.

it would be so poetic if he beats RBA after RBA beat him right before his resurrection, but you’re right. And there was some poetry in Agassi’s run too, he had to scrap it out against the guy who idolized him and built his game after him. And of course, losing to a dude named B. Becker.

Ok think I’ve recovered enough emotionally to post…. What the fuck. Murray you fucking beast

I’m confused by the scheduling, I think flashscore is saying Murray v RBA in six hours’ time? Surely they mean tomorrow?

Next day, on saturday

Thanks, nearly had a heart attack

Gonna binge watch the terminator movies in honour of Andy.

Why does every single one of medvedevs marches have to be at 3 am I am a college student

Don't you guys stay up late anyway?

Yeah but watching that match means I’ll likely be up until like 4 or 5 when I have class at 12 and a long day ahead

Best time to do it, trust me lol Enjoy it while you can

issue is I have no way of waking myself up in the morning since I have a really hard time getting out of bed if I haven’t slept at least 8-10 hours

omg i need something to alert me when matches go on like this

I know he’s younger but I find this very reminiscent of Connors’ great run in ‘91. Especially that incredible defence on break point.

And the pure love for the sport. There’s no joy, not from a salty Scot. He is miserable on every point, but you know with an artificial hip that his love for the sport and the game is unmatched. I love this guy. He may become my favorite Andy tennis player if he keeps this up, which I never thought was possible.

Wait Connors was older? I didn’t know

38 to 39 I believe during the tournament.

You’re right, I forgot that he turned 39 during the fourth round match against Krickstein

Connors was 39 (EDIT: as npyr pointed out, he was 38 at the start of the tournament, but he turned 39 during his fourth round against Krickstein). Same age Federer was when he made his last Slam SF here in 2020.

If kokkinakis gets called while in serving motion how does Nadal get away with getting down to 0 every time

Nadal

Absolutely buzzing after that match

I'm going to watch it again

Murray is a fucking beast

Kudos to the interns churning out a highlights vid already on youtube

They’re done by AI https://aithority.com/machine-learning/australian-open-and-infosys-take-tennis-to-new-heights/

Lmao extended highlights too

Don’t know what to do with myself now that’s over.

Roberto Bautista Agut up next - he has beaten Mury 3 for 3 since "the hip", including the AO in 2019 in 5 when mury let a 2 set lead slip. **Edit** \- it was Murray who came back from 2 down but lost the fifth 64 64 67 67 62 It will be another battle?

idk but i fear for mury’s energy level - rba will happily grind for 5 hours and idk if mury can do it a third time in a row… he needs rba to have a bad day or a miracle physio / recovery session today

Mury did not let a 2 set lead slip my guy, he came back from 2-0 down but couldn’t finish the job

ok misread the score on the h2h site then 6-2 in the 5th

when people decide to post on this sub do they ever look to see if it was already posted.

No bc that would mean scrolling for 5 hours. It’s a fast moving feed

the netflix curse post was posted like 5 times in the past half hour

So RBA for Murray next. Who had a 5 setter too. And also came back from 2 sets down.

5 sets again then.

And played like half the time.

ESPN is allegedly replaying the match during its daytime rerun coverage in a condensed version.

Yeah I reckon they can cut it down to a tight 4 hours.

Am i missing something?

You said you think all Serbs and Russians are animals to be put down not two minutes ago, what does that make you?

Why didn't Kokkanakis do a Robredo middle finger lol

Really unfortunate to advance to play an unranked opponent... who turns out to be Andy Murray. I always feel bad for the other guy when a legend is very low ranked or unranked, like Berrettini the other day.

You got good drugs are they for sale?

Has Murray been tested for WD40?

💀💀💀

Everyone that stayed back to watch this game may as well sleep at the AO for next days play to

I can’t believe that match finished in the night time… UK time! It’s legitimately dark here.

I watched the end of his first match when I was getting ready for work the other day so it must have been a very long day over there lol.

Is post match conference postponed til they've slept?

Bottom side of the draw wide open now with Fritz and Ruud out, genuinely hoping for a Djokovic vs Murray semi final clash

Noooo I didn’t know Fritz and Ruud our

This was such an amazing match. As a relatively new fan to the sport I am humbled and inspired by both players. Kokk needs to learn how to shut the door, but at 26 I think he has many good games in front of him.

Surprised and delighted at how respectful that crowd was. Cheered incessantly for their countryman, but never cheered at a Murray first serve miss and didn't delay the servers

Aussies love Murray

I went to work at 5-2 in the third set thinking this was all but over, I look up now 2 and a half hours later and Murray did it. Fucking insane

wait a minute.. this match was going on?? I checked live scores and saw 5th set, I thought it must have gotten suspended since it is like 0300 in Melbourne, now I see it is completed.

Yeah it finished past 4am

Yep it just finished about 10 minutes ago. Without any suspensions.

mad lads

I have some bad news to tell you...

Just to put into perspective.. 25 and 24 year old Rafa and Novak had to sit through their trophy presentation after the 5 hour 53 minute AO final 2012.. 35 year old Andy Murray with a metal fucking hip stood through that shitshow of an interview like a champion

True Grit the Movie

Full metal jacket

Maybe this will make Thanassi thirsty for wins and have a great season

Sir Andy 🫡

This match would be in top 3 matches ever played at AO

Murray has the biggest heart of any tennis player EVER. This is not debatable.

Actually love Andy Murray as a person and how he always speaks out for women players

This whole time I’ve been utterly convinced Djokovic will stroll to his 10th Aus open title. What’s changed? Cyborg Murray 2.0. That’s what’s changed. That Aus open title is coming home!

Rune...

One of Mmoh, Wolf, Shelton or Popyrin will reach QFs, the furthest Rublev has made to in a grandslam, while being unseeded.

That pisses me off ngl, he’s basically never had a beatable opponent on the quarters, and then these guys just get to waltz through with basically no one there to stop them

> no one there to stop them Fritz, Zverev, and Schwartzman were there to stop them

Were always gonna be the weakest seeds

You’re lying if you can pick one of those with even 50% confidence, fascinating stuff. I would go Wolf though..

It's hard because they're all pretty inexperienced in slams

I’m buggered like I just played that 5 hour 45 minute marathon

Last time i really watched Murray, his mother was still a ranga.

Honestly, the Big 4 defeating kids left and right with their aging bodies is such a statement. They’re just on a different level. The Next Gen/Next Next Gen/Lost Gen would have been eating dust during their peaks.

Next Gen etc. have nothing on these guys. Guys like Ferrer and Berdych would eat them for breakfast.

Ah yes, the post-match feeling of emptiness

Yeah, dunno what to do now. Can we make it a 7 setter?

I’m literally heading to the Aus Open in around 4 hours. This is insane lmao

Did you watch the whole match?

Yep I did. From start to finish

Coffee. Coffee. Coffee.

No SOY SOY SOY

Yep. Gulping down a double shot as soon as I wake up EDIT: Keep saying “tomorrow”. I forgot it’s the next morning. Like some people are preparing for work right now while I’m here with my mindblown at what I just witnessed

What happened yesterday is today.

I watched the entire match is that normal?

Yes.

No, but MuryGOAT

I commend u 🙏

Omg wt did i miss? I stopped watching at the beginning of the fifth set because I couldnt bear to see Murray losing (and he was next to limping) and he won the set and match?!?!

Yeah missed some great tennis. Murray didn't understand the meaning of quit. I doubt Murray can win the whole thing considering how much tennis he's already played this tournament but wow I hope he does. What a great moment that would be.

He was still signing balls ❤️

He was rubbing his balls, and they jingled, then he thought hey!!! These balls are magical!!!!! Thats not an E

This interviewer was a cringy chap

Everyone punch drunk with tiredness

He’s delirious from it being 4.15AM!

Still can't believe Mmoh beat Zverev. Going to have to endure that service motion if I want to watch Wolf play.

He is hobbling. Remind me of rafa walking but that was atleast after the final.

Those asking who’s interviewing. The name’s John Fucking Fitzgerald. Have some respect for the 9x grand slam doubles slam champ

He should stick to playing

43/51 net points won and then all that defending he had to do in this match and still only make 3 double faults overall and taking it to 5 sets even by being 2-0 down and still winning this match yeah Andy Murray is here to stay folks Oh yeah down 5-2 in the 3rd set and outnumbered in aces by 27 aces as well LOL

At least RBA isn't a serve bot.

Two matches in and Murray’s been on court ten hours and forty minutes..no worries his hip was manufactured by Skynet.

Cyberdyne Systems Model 101

His hip was installed with Autonomous ultra-instinct, which is triggered after 3 hours.

That interviewer had 5 hours 45 to think of that shit

rooting hard for murray and med this AO

Everyone forgot about the Netflix curse in the midst of all this lol. It's too strong.

Stay away from this cursed series

I need MurrayGOAT to finish with the GS record, starting with his one right here

what do you want a Fairytale?

yes

You might need to reign in your expectations.

rein

yes. correct me.. so hot

correct me more daddy

liquorice flavour

I feel like the chats are dying slow but steady.

Andy fucking Murray reminding all of us why it was the Big Four before he was injured.

FFS let the guy rest now

Just give Murygoat the trophy already😭😭😭😭😭 everybody else will have a cakewalk compared to this guy's first two rounds already

Edit; This interviewer may be awful but if that's the price Andy has to pay to finally win the AO then idc let's take that, he must interview Andy after every match 🤣

69 winners for murygoat. 👌Nice.

I believe that was the 2nd longest AO match ever only beaten by the Novak vs Rafa final of 2012.

Mildly optimistic to assume it'll have the same conclusion as wimbledon 2013. nah jk murygoat winning it all

Man is tired AF and he still takes the time to sign tennis balls. This is why we love Murygoat

It’s so late right now sidemen reacts just post a video at 4:18AM

most entertaining second round

Damn! 102 winners from Kokk. 😯

And 37 aces. Miles ahead of Andy's numbers but he still lost

[удалено]

Murray Wimbledon 2013? He won.

oh I thought he meant AO 2013

Are you talking about Wimbledon 2013? As he won, you’re thinking of 2012

This interviewer dude seems like a nice guy but his on-court interviews that I’ve caught have all been so awkward and stilted.

Does anyone have a screenshot of Andy sitting at the 6-5 changeover surrounded by 10+ racquets scattered on the ground? I’d like to frame it

omg what a tonedeaf interviewer

Interviewer STFU

Man after all this work in the first two rounds, playing for 11 hours, you realize you have 5 more to go and your next opponent is someone who’s beaten you in your last three meetings and is much fresher. Reality can be awfully cruel.

Who's he playing next?

Roberto Bautista Agut

Thanks!

tbh RBA played a 5 setter today, but ya he is fresher and this stress just goes on tolling up as more rounds come

RBA’s last three sets were a training exercise tbh

102 winners is crazy

Jesus Christ let the man leave..what is this

Omg this is bad

That was maybe the worst post match interview I've ever seen

It’s past 4am he wants to go bed 👀

Murray was fine and clearly exhausted, what were those questions though lol, let the man sleep.

Disgusting interviewer ruined the whole match

Andy still stopping to sign autographs on the way out, what a guy

Take the hint dude

Let’s go to bed 1 last thing Ffs

He is signing the balls. What a legend.

so its like porn or music this time of the morning?

Piss off andy good night and good piss

Andy needs to be given a bye in the next round after all the hard work he has done after going all such pain and trauma.

Pointless interview
