  1. I think @AO please don't add winner on title, it takes away the fun.
    Why are you ignoring our plea.
    Guys start messaging then to stop putting winners title.

  2. Incredible play, the game just gets more & more amazing in some people’s hands. These two makeup a few of those hands. .

  3. might be the best hard court match I have ever seen Casper play. Just amazing stuff here

  4. Ruud looks dangerous. I think he's got a shot at a deep run here. He barely let Bellucci set a foot in the match. He is definitely more of a threat than overrated Bublik to Sinner and Alcaraz.
