Sock's forehand 'squash' shots when stretched defensively are so bad.

Keep nattering at Sock guys. Not sure it's helpful as he prepares to serve for the second set.
If players can be given code violations for the actions of their coach, how about for the actions of their team ?

This is a team exhibition, it's hardly a grand slam match. The team encouragements are part of the experience!

Though with that backhand you are liable to leave yourself stretched on the forehand.

Oh, I agree entirely. Not sure that the crowd would entirely approve of Tiafoe's words of encouragement though !

Kyle wins 6-4 5-7 [10-6]

Hope that does help him along the way back ...

Cool, well done Kyle, pretty good for a challenger player

indiana · Tennis legend

Yay re Kyle.

I doubt he will win it but still it is good recognition of how he has significantly improved in a number of areas this year ( including winning! ) and pushed his ranking to new heights.

Thats the next step for Kyle if he is truely to become the undisputed best challenger player of all time. Putting away non seeded players in straight sets, no tie breaks and ideally breaking them twice. Sustaining his rank and pushing on deep into the top 10 is all about arriving in the second week of slams with plenty in the tank ready for an all out attritional battle with the top ten.

To get into the last 8 of slams consistently would be a realistic target over the next couple of years, once you are there, a bit of luck (Kyle works hard enough to have loads ) and anything can happen.
