Only saw the last game, what the hell was going on there?

 

[cmchelsea]

Not a huge surprise. Querrey is one of the more dangerous unseeded players and Coric wasn't in great form.

 

[Budadiii]

Anyone?

Querrey GOAT'ing or Coric somehow still without any form?

coric was a disaster. sam played and served well but borna playing even decent would have at least challenged him more. the game in the 3rd to get broken in the 3rd to allow sam to serve or it was tragic

Coric just isn't progressing at all...literally no progress has been made in 2 years now(you can even argue he has regressed). He is being passed by his peers every month. I feel bad for his fans. 5 years ago, he was considered to be a very promising upstart....now he looks to be no more than a glorified journeyman. His name doesn't even come up as top of his generation anymore. I hope he finds the spark somewhere soon.


Grats to Querrey...it'll be interesting to see what type of damage he can do here.

 

[Servebots=GOAT]

Excellent result, bravo querrey for taking out the talentless pusher.

Strong Era.

Congrats to Querrey, played very well today and showed no rust at all in his first competitive match of the year. I expect him to meet Berrettini in R3, where I hope the Italian gets revenge for their last (and only) meeting (IW '19).

2020 is shaping up to be a terrible year for Coric, even more disappointing than last season. No doubt injury and parting ways with Piatti didn't help, but he looks completely helpless and rudderless right now in a way I've never seen him before. Whatever improvements Stepanek is trying to make to Coric's game are yet to make themselves evident.

What you're saying makes no sense.

2018 was by far his best ever season, he made major progress.

And since then? It's been a lot of dissapointment. When's the last time someone has brought up his name in the list of promising or top NextGen?

Do you not see what you said / what I quoted?

 

[zicofirol]

This is surprising because of how bad has looked recently.

 

[HollowTip]

I don't know if his back problems are bothering him or if he is just back to the constant yapping and complaining mode, which he kinda restarted at Umag vs Caruso last year. Before that Coric had things pretty much under control imo. His attitude is of a player who deserves more all the time and something unfair is happening to him...but in this world you gotta go out and take it, you gotta fight for your name and Ws every day, can't live with the "talent" tag forever.

 

[Djoker]

Coric is overrated, no questions about it. Always has been, always will be.

 

[enlightenedth]

"Oh, he lacks confidence, oh, he might be injured, oh, back problems, oh oh oh."
How much time until you guys realize that Coric IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH? Average player at best. And to think that even I thought he might win this match. Jesus Christ.

 

[AskTheQuestion]

Good result.
This means good serve and volley players can still compete against decent baseliners on this surface.

Borna ?‍♀ ?‍♀ ?‍♀

 

[Coolio_Jack]

Coric is definitely lost out there, has no idea where he is at with his game, where he wants to be and how to get there.

Those of us who know him bit better, years ago kept telling that his stuborness might ruin his career and it certainly looks like its happening.

Way to go, Sam! Keep going!
