That tie breaker was kind of sloppy.


drvilvp

sealed the victory with an ace. what a clean performance. RUBYYYY WE LOVE YOU!!! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes_rainbow)


Coneman_Joe

It would be kinda clutch if Rublev won the tournament.


Milly_Hagen

That's be awesome. If it's a Rublev v Sinner final I won't know what to do. My two faves, neither with a masters 1000 title


Earnmuse_is_amanrag

Man, Court 3 is playing pretty fast


Coneman_Joe

Rublev easy semi finals.


Earnmuse_is_amanrag

Rublev's second serve is getting absolutely bullied


Nazgul417

How do I pick the winner 😭 Bweh and Lebwehcka are like my two favorite people


absurditas

Okay... Jiri taking this opportunity to have a good old chat with his coach.


Coneman_Joe

Lehecka is just another Shapovalov, hits some great shots once in a while, misses half of them.


Strict-Marsupial6141

I think he's going to break a racquet or smash his racquet, he looks so angry ! Rublev can defend everything Leheckas throwing at him


Marchesk

There's the Anisimova/Noskova match. I thought they had moved it to noon Sat.


Marchesk

Giorgi is seeing and hitting the ball so well! How is she only #46?


DrKersh

is it me or has pegula really dropped her level lately?


erickaixinji

no, giorgi is playing super good


erickaixinji

bro can the mods not create the next day match thread when today’s matches are still happening?


notlol20

I think it's automatic but yeah, too early for that.

What if we just... never leave here?

Coneman_Joe

Crack-fueled match.


Coneman_Joe

Lol wwho was saying Indian Wells had good music?


Advanced-Branch-5113

What are those faces lehecka was making lol


Strict-Marsupial6141

since no one is answering, the one where rubweh will bweh him


Psychological_Bug676

I’ve been waiting for hours to watch Andrey play. IW will pay for making a sleep deprived Victorian era child looking man play this late into the night


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Andrey looks like a child soldier from the movie Come and See


Psychological_Bug676

That movie is a masterpiece


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Also I just realized you were saying that YOU look like a Victorian era child and not andrey oops lol


Psychological_Bug676

Noooo I meant Andrey 😭😭


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

One of my favorites, i love a movie that viscerally horrifies me physically and emotionally


Psychological_Bug676

It’s one of those movies that completely shatters you because it’s so good but you’d never want to watch it again. Another one for me was Lilya 4 ever


MarbleEmperor

What were the fireworks for? I don't think the US has a national celebration in March?

St Patrick's day maybe idk lol

OddsTipsAndPicks

Good chance the winner of Rublev Lehecka takes the quarter.


rubbish_bin030121

If Rublev wins, I will say tiafoe takes the quarter


Strict-Marsupial6141

Looking ahead would you say we can have two upsets tomorrow with Gasquet and Sinner, or Kokkinakis over Carlitos? what do you think Oddtips


Advanced-Branch-5113

Them and tiafoe pretty much


absurditas

Medvedev politely giving the pens back after signing autographs, too cute.


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

God what a horrendous draw for Rublev. Drawing Lehechka 2nd round is just cruel


OddsTipsAndPicks

Tough early but wide open after that

Strict-Marsupial6141

D: h2h's can swing, okay we have a 50/50 darn it harry


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Hey man im not gonna fight you on this I’ll even bet 8 earth gems and my toothbrush that Rublev indeed does pull through

Darn. I was never rich enough anyway. I only fell a billion dollars short.


Advanced-Branch-5113

Tiafoe looking locked in. His quarter is wide open so great opportunity for him to go far


WarEagle615

Why do tennis players take just one bite of a banana rather than eating half or a whole banana in between?


RedDevil50

Too much sugar at once if you have one whole one at a time. Also I think they only get so many.


[deleted]

How are you watching in india? Voot doesn't show it, and i have no clue where to watch. Please help


spiderpool123

Facing the same exact issue. Online it says that Viacom 18 is the broadcaster, except there's no live stream on Voot. Is it streaming on Jio or something?? If someone knows, please reply!


[deleted]

It is not streaming in jio anywhere, i have jiotv in fact.


spiderpool123

Nobody gives a shit about tennis in our country, my friend :// it's sad but it's true. I was quite happy the last year or two coz Master's were readily available to watch and now this --__--


Gamer_moment15

Its still with voot but they haven't renewed the license or something, they don't give af Hope Sony or hotstar take it, ffs even ligue 1 is being streamed


Coneman_Joe

Half the seeds in the bottom draw have fallen already.


Strict-Marsupial6141

You guys think Rublev will hold on for the night?


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Yes. I think this surface suits him the best out of anyone in this tournament besides maybe Carlos but that’s even debatable


Therealbradman

Holy shit that was some high level tennis. Brandon was out of his mind, tough draw, because he was playing some outrageous tennis. Unfortunately for him, so was Meddy. Or maybe I’m just a little stoned lol, because my jaw was in the floor every other point


liveforeachmoon

Yup. šŸ”„


joppa_rd

Finally the proper smash on mp


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Really solid win for Meddy. Bnak shouldnt be disappointed in his performance


Nazgul417

That match did *NOT* play like 6-4, 6-3. That score line is a shame for how good that match was


RedDevil50

I think it's fair enough. Nakashima had a ton of break points and couldn't get a single one.


sand2603

15 in a row! Not a great performance but good enough


simplecitydress

woohooOooOoo


Lachie07

15 in a row!


absurditas

Omg ruthless netcord!


tallconfusedgirl12

Brandon, absolutely nothing to be ashamed of my guyšŸ‘Œ


Metazz

That was a cruel net cord there...


Strict-Marsupial6141

No no nooo Brandon nooo, net cord :(


sand2603

Clutch hold from Med!


Darius0995

Berrettini is definitely still not 100% fit. Movement was way off and was struggling to run around his forehand- also opting to hit it when unbalanced and in weird positions.


absurditas

Why does Meddy keep smashing down the T? It's not working...


kKunoichi

This side of the draw sure got, uh, interesting?


Coneman_Joe

Anna Karenina retired?


totallynotabot_95

Hello Tolstoy šŸ‘‹


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

In an alternate universe Medvedev is the Russian Mr Beast


BlueBone313

These smashes bro


drvilvp

abysmal year for Berrettini, early exits in the 3 tournaments he was able to play so far. He's going to have dig deep and find solutions because can he really afford to wait until grass season to put in great results befitting of his rankings? come on matteo, you're better than this


absurditas

The Netflix curse is powerful.


Advanced-Branch-5113

Taro Daniel playing some great tennis last 2 weeks


Strict-Marsupial6141

That was great by Taro, seems like he's climbing up the ranks


Coneman_Joe

Bye bye seeds.


ExcuseYou-What

the way pliskova is literally lounging cross-legged in her chair during kalinskaya's mto is sending me like it looks like she fully expects a retirement soon. not a single care in the world lmao.


SendaiVirusEnjoyer

Nakashima fits the typical mold of American tennis players. Good player, good technique, decent serve but nothing really special that sets him apart. He cannot break down top players with this playstyle. EDIT: Just wanted to add that there is nothing wrong with this and I like him as a player. I just don't think he can take his game to the next level and that is fine as well. Definitely a good top 50 player.


Advanced-Branch-5113

Very good backhand


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

You’re getting downvotes but you’re right to an extent, and this is coming from a huge bnak fan. The thing is though he’s only 21 and has years to build upon this already really solid foundation


SendaiVirusEnjoyer

For sure, I hope he continues to grow. If he can develop some of his tools more he can definitely make some deep runs in the future.


erickaixinji

Taro Daniel should be proud of himself, having wins over Ruud and Berrettini within two weeks is pretty impressive


SendaiVirusEnjoyer

He has quite a few good wins, he has beaten Murray and Rune as well in the past year.


nimbus2105

So what’s up with berrettini? Is he in his flop era as the kids say?


Tricky_Forehand

Well done Taro Daniel!


erickaixinji

damn u can tell matteo’s pissed, didn’t even shake the umpire’s hand


absurditas

I have to say, Nakashima definitely brought his mental game today. Good stuff.


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

This match is fucking lit I love both of these guys and they’re playing at such a high level despite the scoreline maybe suggesting Brandon isn’t


gayforthiem

What happened in the berrettini match? Why didn’t he shake the umps hand?


A-dab

Taro wins!


rubbish_bin030121

Berrettini's last two loss: Rune, Japanese Rune Taro is the last asian man stand!!!


Nazgul417

Japanese Rune šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


rubbish_bin030121

imtiNation

Nah Meddy is taking the piss. He could end this set whenever he wants, he is just having fun


BlueBone313

Nah wtf was thatšŸ˜‚


Tricky-Author-8226

Brandon omg


KSAN05

Maybe it's just me but I love watching slow court tennis when it's on clay, but when hard courts are ridiculously sluggish like IW(or Acapulco) the tennis seems way more boring on average for some reason.


RedDevil50

Completely agree. This just doesn't feel like players can play at their peak level on this surface.


SendaiVirusEnjoyer

Completely agree, fast hard court is just better in every way.


absurditas

Is Berrettini self-destructing?


Kiragagash

Ngl Matteo wasn't playing bad at all, but I mean I don't know the technical term, but I feel like he is losing his clutchness in the important points. But then again just my opinion. Also Taro was playing pretty good that set very little UEs!!


[deleted]

Nazgul417

I’ve done that a time or two šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


LonelySouls14

I always find it funny when I see Medvedev backpedal to the baseline from the net.


BlueBone313

What’s with these central smashes


Tricky-Author-8226

Meddy running back from the net is hilarious


AngryMrBungle

Who can stop Meddy Daddy


gayforthiem

LMAO


imtiNation

Meddy's smashes have not worked this set. Important points and weak smashes.


R3dd3v3l

Medvedev have no one cheering for him


RedDevil50

Assuming he wins, his match vs Ivashka is going to be horribly attended


Coneman_Joe

Just like no one would cheer for Brandon in Russia.


Nazgul417

Home favorite + underdog, such is the way of things


OwenRey

Aaaaand there’s the MTO for Anna 😭


DrBadassPhD

There’s a 50% chance Berrettini wins this. It either happens or it doesn’t


Nazgul417

One does not simply win the match after bageling Taro Daniel


Coneman_Joe

Brandon's coach giving Apostolos a run for his money in helicoptering.


Metazz

Just woke up, wtf is going on with Matteo?!


uma100

My feed sounds like they put a microphone in the Brandon’s box, I can hear everything his coach says


Capivara_19

What’s he saying?


uma100

ā€œRight here..vamos, step in, show him you’re here, take your timeā€ told him to make Med run to the net, ā€œkeep him runningā€


RedDevil50

Nothing really interesting tbh, haven't heard any tactics.


RedDevil50

What a hold from Med. Might be the match, Nakashima must be gutted to not win that game.


amead5

How did Matteo bagel Taro? He can’t even find a BP


imtiNation

Meddy down love 40. Literally said fuck no aint getting broken.


_michael_klump_

ā€œAll the tentacles in playā€ lmao


tallconfusedgirl12

There’s no reason to jump for hitting a drop shot other than being a menace


Capivara_19

Disguise? šŸ˜‚


Reddiajjk2o2i1o

Beauty of a drop shot from Medvedev.


Reddiajjk2o2i1o

Not looking good for Rinky and Kubler. Down 5-1 in the first.


BlueBone313

This surface is ass


Nazgul417

NOOO DADVEDEV

Goatashima. Let's go.


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

LETS GO BRANDON


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Bnak is stone cold i love it lol


Coneman_Joe

Let's go Brandon!


Reddiajjk2o2i1o

Medvedev looks like a Werewolf extra from a werewolf film.


ExcuseYou-What

it is actually so sad how poor berrettini's masters record is. just three times through to the quarterfinals or better. and many, many absences. it's unfortunate, yes, but also really poor.


rubbish_bin030121

What a return from Taro!!


Explodingcamel

I think the real problem with Berrettini atm is that his forehand, which is supposed to carry him, is just not giving him the free points he needs.


tallconfusedgirl12

Did anyone just peep Matteo staring at Taro in shock during the changeover šŸ’€šŸ˜­


Throwaway92394292

Why Matteo plays a drop shot instead of ripping a forehand is beyond me


OwenRey

Anna hurt her toe/foot in game 1 of set 2. Favoring it a lot right now. Same injury that knocked her out of Guadalajara last year


A-dab

What a point from Taro to win that game


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Yeah that was crazy


Tricky_Forehand

Oh man! Where the hell was Daniel looking at that overhead "smash"?!


TheSpadeWizard

Daniil tryna match Max Purcell's 15 match win streak rn


TheSpadeWizard

Lol in all seriousness would like to see a full list of the times that a player has been able to win 15 consecutive matches at the ATP level. Meddy is most likely about to achieve it here, before this Felix went 16 or so last season on the indoor courts, season before that Ruud won 3 straight titles so I think he probably got 15, before that you'd have to go to Murray in 2011 who won 3 straight titles and obviously Djokovic's streak earlier that year and all the Big 3 streaks. Also Meddy I think went another 20 straight to end 2020 and before the Australian Open final. And Delpo I believe got 20 randomly too but before he peaked in like 2008, and Rafa ofc last year 20-0 to start 2022. Want to see a full list, these are some examples ik off hand from recent years


Reddiajjk2o2i1o

Medvedev can hit shots ridiculously low and just over the net from way behind the baseline. Dudes a freak of nature. Either that or proof that an Octopus can indeed be the best player in the world.


venan99oo

Meddy rules


lightningxcookie

This tournament is having chaotic US Open energy

liveforeachmoon

Good?


Crusteh_

Is there something different about Medvedev’s forehand? It looks like there’s more on it than usual, penetrates deeper in the court


SendaiVirusEnjoyer

This match might be over, that is just how good Med has been the last few weeks.


absurditas

Time for an underam serve?


Horned_chicken_wing

Sometimes I cannot believe that PlíŔkovÔ was ever #1 in the world.

Let me guess - unforced errors?


Reddiajjk2o2i1o

Let's go Brandon. Hold here.


PlayboiCartiBallsak6

Welp this is gonna be a short one. This guy is a freak of nature


rubbish_bin030121

Even Taro can bully Berretini's BH lol

Taro on a roll, great recovery from the second set, hope he keeps it up
