Anderson przed Tsitsipasem? Przybijające pod każdym względem

Siedmiu zawodników zdaje się na dobrej drodze do Londynie, ale tego ósmego za nic nie potrafię wytypować. Może Delpo, może Cilic, może Thiem, może Stan, ekstrawagancko Stan/Monfils, nie mam pojęcia.

[DUN I LOVE]

Będę zaskoczony jak ktoś z grona Stan/Palito/Monf załapie się do tego turnieju.

[Mario]

Zdecydowanie. Co do Delpo, to nie chcę się wypowiadać, bo tu nie chodzi o to, żeby głosić jakieś katastroficzne wizje, ale Monfils i Wawrinka...

Nie od dziś wiadomo, że w tenisa (poza Australian Open) gra się od marca, a to, że ktoś tam poszalał w lutym w tych fajnych kurnikach nie ma większego znaczenia. Zacznie się poważne granie, przyjdzie jakaś kontuzja (w przypadku Gaela raczej liczba mnoga), później przez 3 miesiące szukanie formy i jak któryś będzie w top 15 race przed USO, będę w wielkim szoku.

[Kiefer]

Będę zaskoczony jak ktoś z grona Stan/Palito/Monf załapie się do tego turnieju.

Ja Stanem nie będę w ogóle zaskoczony, jedyny znak zapytania to czy będzie przez cały sezon zdrowy, moim zdaniem, bo potencjałem biję na głowę pewnie 99,9% touru. Del Potro wątpię, to raczej będzie kiepski rok dla niego po którym może to jeszcze nastąpi jakiś powrót jak w 2013 i 2016 albo już nie, mimo wszystko dwa lata solidnego grania to i tak dużo jak na niego.

[DUN I LOVE]

Od kiedy Stan się połamał (po RG17), czyli przez prawie 2 lata nie zagrał nic, co by go wprowadziło do Top-8. Finał ATP500 to zrobił ostatnio cudowny kanadyjski dzieciak. Musi coś zacząć grać Szwajcar, coś więcej niż kilka ładnych bh i odpalenie słabego Dimuga czy chimerycznego Nishikoriego. Czas pokaże.

Zworka brakuje w czubie, ale niebawem powinien dołączyć. Jak dla mnie to jest 6 pewniaków do kwalifikacji: Djoković, Nadal, Tsitsipas, Federer, Thiem, A Zverev.

Fans Believe Thiem Will Qualify For Nitto ATP Finals

Spoiler:

Dominic Thiem arrived at the BNP Paribas Open with a 3-4 record to start the season and left with his first ATP Masters 1000 title. Not only did the win launch him from No. 90 to No. 5 in the ATP Race To London, but fans also seem to think the Austrian is on his way to qualifying for the Nitto ATP Finals for the fourth straight year.
Fans have been provided with an opportunity to pick the eight players they believe will qualify for this year’s season finale. Based on his inspired run in Indian Wells and victory over Roger Federer in the final, Thiem is currently the seventh hottest pick, with 43.2 per cent believing he’ll appear at the O2 in London.
Pick the eight players you think will qualify for the 2019 Nitto ATP Finals and you could win the ultimate trip for two to London to attend this year’s season finale.
Perhaps surprisingly, the opening-round exit that Stefanos Tsitsipas had in Indian Wells did nothing to impact fan perceptions of whether he will qualify for the season-ending championship. In fact, more fans believe he will make it there. The Greek player jumped over Kei Nishikori as the fifth hottest pick with 57.9 per cent of fans selecting him, up from 51.2 per cent two weeks ago. He seeks to become the first player to compete at the Next Gen ATP Finals and then make the Nitto ATP Finals the next year.
Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Alexander Zverev continue to hold the top four spots, in the order listed, and remain overwhelming fan favourites' to appear at The O2 from 10-17 November.

British tennis suffers blow as ATP Finals 2020 likely to be the last staged in London

Spoiler:

British tennis is on the verge of losing one of its biggest assets, as the Association of Tennis Professionals prepares to shift the ATP Finals out of London after a 12-year stay. Barring a late change of heart, the 2020 event will be the last staged at the O2 Arena.

After a nine-month tender process, The Daily Telegraph understands that ATP executives are likely to rule out another extension – which would be the fourth – to the hosting agreement for the O2. Turin is the favourite to win the new five-year deal; Tokyo is also seen as a strong contender.

The loss would not have a direct financial impact on the British game, as all proceeds go to the ATP. But the visibility of this event has been huge, with both the BBC and Sky Sports running live TV coverage. The finals have demonstrated to a British audience that there is more to tennis than Wimbledon.

The tournament has been played in 14 different cities since its inception in 1970, and the pressure for change had been building. Novak Djokovic, who is now the head of the ATP player council, has been calling for a move since 2014. His restlessness was only held at bay by London’s profitability. The finals brought in 15 per cent of the ATP’s revenues, which stood at $144 million (£110 million) in the last financial year.

Italian sources have reported that Turin’s mayor, Chiara Appendino, may offer an annual guarantee of €15 million over the five years of the contract.


Meanwhile, on court here, a tetchy Djokovic delivered a spectacular racket smash, and suffered four straight breaks of serve, in the course of an unconvincing 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 win over Philipp Kohlschreiber. The world No 1 later ascribed his struggle to “rust”.
