Sock should go full Bryan bros and quit singles and stick to doubles.

That's the thing I don't understand. We all hate servebots, but the Shapo style is sort of the same concept, except from the baseline. Not sure why everyone calls that talent, but nobody treats serving the same way.

I feel like we just don't see it a ton on the men's side. But, WTA is filled with mindless ball bashers with one gear that drive me nuts, like Sharapova and Bouchard.

Sock breaks to stay in it.

I feel like Sock goes inside in way too often and gets so far out of position.

How is it that Sock, the 18th ranked player in the world, cannot hit a backhand?

Yeah, it's a problem when he is always running around the backhand but he doesn't move all that well.

There's two decent returns via the backhand.

I guess I can't kill Sock for this. This guy is balling.

OK, I'll complain about one thing. The run-around he tried down 3-5 was absolutely ridiculous.

He just ran around a ball that almost hit the line, and obviously left the court wide open

What an absolutely terrible play by Sock at 3-5 in the tiebreaker.

I saw Milos Monday on court 5 up close. shite was crazy. He smacks the ball. Would be a good match for Ashe.

I’m about to throw out a really bold prediction. I’m hung up on deciding just how bold I want to go with it. I know it’s the internet and it doesn’t matter, but I take pride in my predictions, and I want to own up to it later if I’m wrong.

I am a huge Nadal fanboy, but I'm not sure anyone looks better in a muscle shirt than him in history. He is jacked af and tan af
