It's so tilting that his back was giving him issue in the US, should have just ignored cinni

Roger is just awesome. Rafa just isn't getting close on Rogers service games.

That was a bloodbath. 6-4 6-3 doesn't come close to telling the story. Just a perfect match from start to finish. Served insane, redlining his groundstrokes, everything. He definitely deserves this one.

Cracking start to the final in Basel.

Like womens tennis break then break back. Stupid camera angle though.

Did have a mini break down but then recovered to win it

Great match. Hopefully he plays Paris.

He announced he's out of Paris. Back trouble, I think.

Sock playing Krajinovic in the finals of an M1000.

What a crazy world. Match starting now.

Sock broke twice in the first set to lose 5-7. Not playing very sharp; the first break ended on a double fault. The second on an unforced error.

Second set upcoming.

ETA: this Serb playing with a popped collar is on the cusp of winning an M1000. He already beat Querry and Isner. He's the American nightmare.

Wow. Jack Sock wins a M1000 and makes the ATP finals.

Zverev the Younger won two M1000 titles this year, and beat Novak and Fed in those finals.

Sock gets one without playing anyone better than Verdasco. Counts just the same, but lol.

I see Yevgeny Kafelnikov is in the final 46 of the WSOPE main event. Remember him winning the Aussie Open back in 99. Spin it up Yev!

I always liked Kafelnikov.

In other news, how crazy is it that Mannarino played with just one racquet in his bag from Montreal through Moscow

I'm loving this next gen atp finals action. Flashy entrances, sets up to 4 (tiebreak at 3-3), 25 second shot clock, at 40-40 there's a one-point "tiebreak" instead of deuce - I could get used to this

It's absolutely ****ing crap and an embarrassment to tennis. Might as well be playing with nerf balls in a public park ffs.

It's the format given to the consolation round of 1st rd losers in a public park tourney who play each other so they don't feel like such losers.

It's pretty much a "youth" tourney. It's certainly a nice change of pace given the exact same tourney happens every single week or two.

ATP London finals start now-ish.

Sock/Federer up first.

Feldman's lock of a prediction:
Raja wins 6-2, 6-3.

Was about to post that, about 5 or so minutes until the program starts on TV.

Roger in 2 for me too.

Fed opens with a break and a hold, but we need a second break for the prediction...
