I like both groups. Quality of the teams seems very close and form of the day will make the difference. I think Pavic/Soares will get through their group, group 'Mike Bryan' anything could happen.

Koolhof/Mektic were playing superb tennis. Had like 7 or 8 breakpoints before they broke. Then got broken with a Koolhof double fault when serving for the set. Some great rallies already.

Germans were very clutch to take the first set. Koolhof was the weak link when things got tight. Bad serving, two double faults on important moments.

 

[timmieboy04]

Yeah I agree, Koolhof had the best start but his level dropped after the rebreak.

Another double fault to get broken. it's typical Koolhof. Happens too often

 

[POTUS Haase]

Koolhof with another double fault at 2-2 in the tiebreak. Its embarrassing.

 

[POTUS Haase]

Koolhof/Mektic win! Mektic carried the team by serving absolutely incredible.

According to ATP official site,Marci is taller than Horacio and as high as Pavic.So how did this picture even happen😂Marci even replied to ATP official Instagram himself😂

Obviously Marcelo can have a good talk with Mektic about this part of their partner now😖

Kubot was being Kubot again.After losing his serve by DFs at 3-4,I can see in order to prevent DF,his 2nd serve became incredibly weak,lost serve at 5-2 2nd set,and at MTB,lost a smash at Marcelo's serve,then Ram/Salisbury hit two return aces at Kubot's weak 2nd serve...

And the commentator of that match said this directly when he saw Kubot's first DF:'Kubot always makes some DFs at every match'...And when he lost his serve by DF,he said 'ohh..'shows he believe that was gonna happen sooner or later😪

Well,of course Kubot's return is still very good.So,let me see what will happen next match...

I watched this match as well. Kubot was returning like a beast in set 2, but his serve is so so vulnerable..

Exactly.Now as a giraffe fan,every time I saw him serve like this,I always thank him for not like this at Wimbledon final 2017 set 5 8-8 0-40...

 

[POTUS Haase]

Koolhof'Mektic just too good today. Especially Koolhof was truly playing his best tennis, returning everything.

 

[CooCooCachoo]

Yep, Koolhof and Mektic looking good.

 

[cll_1993]

See,personality really matters.If it's 4 years ago,they must already split.And if it's Kubelo at 4 years ago,winning Rogers&Cincy back to back,they couldn't have split.So...I don't know...Back to then I really hate Ivan,but now I really hope Marcelo can make the same decision as him...

Hello guys, i'm new on this forum and i have some interesting news for you from Kubot/Melo camp. They are actually break up. Melo in 2021 is going to play with Rojer(what happened with Tecau?), but don't know much about Kubot plan. Honestly i don't think Melo/Rojer is good option beacause they are not the best returning players on the tour and also they're choice on return is deuce side. We'll see what's gonna happened with Kubot.

Can you tell me what your source is,please?

 

[kegesz]

Yes, for sure. Info is from https://twitter.com/TomaszLorek3 He is commentator on polish tv and he said it today during match Pavic/Soares - Granollers/Zeballos.

 

[cll_1993]

Thank you,OK,well...I need time to digest it...Still recovering from Marci's match just now...Knowing my another fav is going to have a new partner definitely shock me at this time...

 

[cll_1993]

Marci's volley is actually a little too bad today.Hope he can find his volley next match.
