There are a few upsets on the cards right now with Zverev, Dimitrov already 2 sets to 1 down and Benoit Paire serving for a similar lead over Nishikori.
Will this be the tourn when current gen do something? I have a feeling.
Just for stats
1980-1988- GOLDEN gen (Big 4 et al)
1989-1992- Generation useless (Goffin, Nishikori, Dimitrov, Roanic)
1992-1995- Current Gen (Thiem, Edmund)
1996-Current- Next gen (Zvereve, Shapo)
Shout out for Chardy. 2 sets up last night when play was suspended. Had to live with a Berdych come back to 2 sets all but then regrouped to win the 5th.
Zverev went on to lose the opening set 6-2
Yes. Pleased for Chardy. Not a huge fan of Berdych either so all good.
Paire is a prat so, again, all fine.
And I've always been a mega Sascha fan. So life is great :)
