Has to be a new winner at least.
Thiem and Medvedev have already been to the hill so favour them.

I know both players are in a different spot than before, but that final would really worry me.

Re: tennis thread- Sponsored by Queer Cunts
Even though i dont like the queen of scream, to go through all the shite she has been through and then be on track for a masters and a slam back to back AND to finally beat your arch nemesis in a slam after a decade of trying is very commendable.

Very harsh to lose a Final in a Tiebreak.
I wish they would have kept the Advantage set for the Final only.

I stopped watching when the manchild german was 2-1 up in the 3rd. Excellent work by Thiem.

I get they need a limit for earlier rounds but it would be great to have a limitless 5th Set in the final of all 4 Slams.

I'm a traditionalist, but not much stays the same these days. I'm convinced the early rounds of Grand Slams will go to Best of 3 sets soon, too.
