3rd set between Zindsek and Badosa was good viewing. Both were fighting for their last win of the tournament.

RG should just declare Nadal lifetime winner, and every year the winner can play him afterwards for an extra trophy.

Zverev wins 6-4, 6-1, 6-1.

Another snoozer. But Tsitsipas vs Medvedev starts in half an hour.

Didn’t know that had Medvedev got to the final he’d be #1

It was another straight set affair, but at least it was close. Tsitsipas beats Medvedev 6-3, 7-6, 7-5. Tsitsipas plays Zverev for a spot in the finals.

Tomorrow Nadal plays Schwartzman and Novak has Berrettini.

ALRIGHT, getting up early to watch some Nadal tomorrow.

Medvedev stokes look like something some old guy at the park would be doing. His game just looks weird.

Bloody norra, I seen she broke first game then held. Thought I’ll go do something else.

Put it back on, she lost the set and has been broken.

Is she injured?

Sakkari Currently running around the court doing stretches here and there.

Coco Gauff had 5 set points in the 1st set against Krejčíková who seemed to be struggling with a leg injury. She saves the set points and wins the set 7-6 (6). Then Krejčíková races to a 5-0 lead in the 2nd, then it's 5-1 40-0 but she can't finish the deal, ends up winning the 2nd set 6-3.

Now Swiatek down 4-6 2-4 to Sakkari, getting closer to having 4 first-time grand slam semi-finalists: Pavlyuchenkova v Zidanšek, Krejčíková v Sakkari.

If a couple or even one of them (right across the board) gets ruthless like their male counterparts they could easily rack up 15 to 20 slams.

Surely the women's final will be Sakkari v Pavlyuchenkova.

Sakkari currently at a career high #17 will go #14 with a F and #9 with a W.

Rafa just too good on this court.

Insane to think he’s only lost twice here because of injuries.

Berrettini have any shot vs Novak? Novax dropped the first two sets last round, right, and Berrettini is way better than that guy.

For a bit more than fifteen years every morning Rafa has gotten up and thought about what he needs to do to win Roland Garros this year.
