Next gen slowly falling apart… Medvedev could not hurt tien. He in a free fall and clear decline

 

Bit of an overreaction

 

Med had to Learn the hard way


BRUTAL

 

Tien was less of a pussy than Medvedev and won. That easy putaway volley in the TB that he was too scared to put any pace or angle on lmao so bad

 

yea this. serves Med well for doing absolutely nothing and let a youngster attack him.


Tien was just incredible, one to remember really. Our commentatora were saying he was dead

 

That wasn't tennis, Ladies and Gentlemen. That was geometry class!!! Good stuff

 

Tomic losing to Tien 50 times last year doesn’t look as bad now hehe

 

Tragic.

Simon has completely ruined Medvedev’s game. He looks old, slow and is a pusher. Everything that once made him a great and consistent player is now gone.

I love him, but I hope he retires and doesn’t stick around to collect R2 paychecks. This might be his last season in the top 20, after that he won’t even be top 50.

 

a bit too dramatic, also Med has always been a pusher

 

Only one word to describe this match: EPIC!!!

 

I've told some guys on here before. Meddy is DONE. He's trash. Time to hang up the boots. He's 28 years old on paper, but in reality he's playing like he's 45.

 

What a masterclass match...

Gobsmscked by tien

Maturity, on fire from a teenager, first GS, ranked 100+

 

Medvedev is disrespectful to tennis, so good bye, won't be missed.

 

NextGen Fraud Diva with a fugly game that acts as if he's won 25 GS or something. Frankly, good riddance. He can close the door after his friend Tsitsigram has left with him. Party is ova for those two clowns.

 

I have no words, Tien is absolutely phenomenal. Outlasting Medvedev in a 4 hours and 48 minutes match.

 

humanity won with this one
i think with regards to the overall performance, this was pretty shoddy--certainly in large parts it was shaky. the guy's usually more steady. the thing that impressed me the most is that he was able to recover, one way or another, mentally and physically (fitness should, of course, only get better with time). there were a lot of great points scattered, throughout

 

Tien is fantastic. He totally deserved the win for being more aggressive. Medvedev's pushing and grunting was annoying. Very impressive that such a young guy, with no notable experience at this level or playing this late into the night or playing this long, actually was able to hang in there. The serve could be improved, but that FH is already world class.

Boy am I glad I got to see Tien train in person at the Vegas CH before this

 

all aboard the hype-train, cooncoonchoochoo

 

RIP bullshit russian. Go join your friend/rival the small kid who doesn't know how to fight

 

he is the NEW GOAT

 

The rain delay at 2:29 local time

Medvedev saved one match point in 3rd set tiebreak.
The way he raised his level in the last possible moment was outstanding.

His groundstrokes are just miles away from Sinner or Alcaraz, but serve, mentality, defense and strategy holding together a house of cards which was folding today.

Tien played good, very good in times. The composure was excellent for a young player. Hr is brave, has great tactics and will be the strongest left-handed player in the future.

Next up for Tien is Moutet. This will be fun.

 

At this rate, Zverev might outlast his next gen peers by a bit..

 

Great match from Leylah Fernandez Tien

 

Wow. Tien played a great match. As I said yesterday there is simply too many talented kids coming for a lot of these guys to stay in the top 10 beyond this year.

 

Amazing from Tien. Guy doesn't even look that athletic yet he was able to sustain high level for almost 5 hours. Most of points that he won from 5:6* 0:15 down were sick winners. Deserved victory.

Also, it's funny seeing Medvedev hitting ball from the middle of court and then running back towards baseline.

Well, when you watch his volleys, it almost makes sense.

He hit one such a terrible volley in the super TB...

 

Great win for Tien. And a possible path to the QF, if he still has energy left:
Moutet next, and then it would be the winner of Sonego-Maroszan

 

Learner out chessed Medvedev. Brilliant match and Medvedev was playing much better today. The match could have gone either way but Tien showed a bit more grit when it counted. His body must be hurting and hope he can recover quickly from this battle.

 

Tien tanked the 4th set because he had to pee really bad. 😭

 

Tien said he wanted to finish the fourth set quickly because he had to pee

 

I got stuck into Petkovic for a garbage post match interview & now John Fitzgerald isn't exactly asking the most thought provoking questions either.

Nobody does it better than Jim Courier at the Australian Open.

 

What a fight!
After losing set 4 the way he did, I thought it was done.
But Tien kept fighting and fighting. Inspiring. Very uncommon for a 19 year old.

The youngsters are really coming and exposing the whole generation of players born from 1990 to 2000.

 

They don’t call them generation useless for nothing.
