Yes, a finished Finn, at least in this tournament.So, is Emil finnish?
That kind of scoreline is highly indicative of a second set tank. Probably not that severe, just a case of not trying as hard as he could once he was down 3-0 or 4-0. If that was the case I don't blame him.Inspiring indeed. Didn't see it coming at all.
Benchetrit seems to be the one who gave Dzumhur some fits at the USO R1 last season (and then proceeded to lose the match rather quickly in the end), but since getting fits for every tiny thing is just part of Dzumhur's on-court routine anyway, there isn't much to take from that, I guess. So, yeah, this is surprising.
That WTA-esque scoreline suggests he was mentally strong enough to throw the kitchen sink across the net in the third. I wish I could see the match.
That's certainly possible, but then it requires a certain amount of mental toughness to reset yourself mentally that way. "Tanking" is not actually that easy, as many players tend to turn it off and then fail to restart the fire on their cylinders, simply fading away into the sunset in the end.That kind of scoreline is highly indicative of a second set tank.

Why is it hard to believe that two over-hyped ball bashers struggle with players with variety?Hard to believe this. It seems that players which can kill the tempo by slicing are problematic to both Ruusuvuori and Sinner.
Exactly this, pretty much all these types of players look like Patrick Star when facing players with variety.Why is it hard to believe that two over-hyped ball bashers struggle with players with variety?
That's high quality tennis, thanks for the highlights.From these Highlights, I'm not that impressed with the Finn.
