you know btw why Thiem did win this time around?

because he choked less?

If only they’d stuck with Hawkeye Live from the Cincinnati tournament , Djokovic would be collecting the big cheque.

perhaps if Sasha lose all them jewellery around his neck he too can win a slam sometime

so Murray sat up until 1.30 AM to be on standby, and now he's not gonna get that call from Dominic.

Murray will call him to let him know he only won because he played a mug in the final, Murray played REAL MEN

Thiem's has had 4.5 years to mentally toughen up.....Sascha will be way better than Thiem in 4.5 years !

Pancho Gonzalez the legend

That's so racist from the BBC

Eurosport just played a long version of Tsitsipas' French weirdos moment. With subtitles and everything.

I have heard of Pancho

Analysis - BBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller

An astonishing Grand Slam final - which had moments of sheer genius, and others which felt like intruding on private grief.

For the first two sets, Thiem was listless and horribly off key; Zverev often excelling in his first Grand Slam final.

The final set produced the best tennis of the match, but also moments of unbearable stress and pressure. Both served for the title, and in the tie-break Zverev's two double faults made the difference, after Thiem looked to have a case of terminal cramp.

Perhaps we underestimated just how stressful it would be to win a Grand Slam in the absence of Djokovic, Federer and Nadal. Without any of them as opponents in the final, neither could pretend they had nothing to lose.

It will be a crushing disappointment to Zverev, but he has reached a semi-final and a final in this year's two majors, with still so much room to improve.

Thiem, meanwhile, is likely to become an even more formidable Grand Slam foe for Djokovic and Nadal.

He will think anything is possible right now, but surely even this extraordinary athlete will need more than 13 days to get ready for another tilt at a major title at the French Open in Paris.
