Well done Jo Konta beating Louisa Chirico 6-3 6-0
RE: Tennis Discussion Thread - mikedafc - 01-09-2015 16:17
^Plays either Witthoeft or Mugaruza in next round
Up to provisional around 84 in world rankings after this win
RE: Tennis Discussion Thread - Mellow - 01-09-2015 18:32
Brave performance by Laura Robson but beaten by the Russian Elena Vesnina 3-6 6-3 7-5
Laura ran out of steam in the last set after holding a 4-0 lead.

Andy Murray saw off Australian Nick Kyrgios to reach the second round. He came through 7-5 6-3 4-6 6-1
RE: Tennis Discussion Thread - setter1000 - 02-09-2015 07:57
No surprises there
As I stated in my previous post Krygios is vastly over rated.
If he were a musician he would be called a one hit wonder. In boxing terms he can't compete with Murray's style.

^ Krygios is very talented but a lot of time he plays very low percentage shots prefering to play a flashy crowd pleasing shot than the right shot for the situation
RE: Tennis Discussion Thread - setter1000 - 03-09-2015 11:04
^^^^^^^^
never doubted his talent but playing the right shot is the main point of tennis. Game management in my opinion is more indicative of someone's true ability than the ability to hit great shots. Unless he changes his mentality he will be at best a 'every dog has his day' player.
Look at Carlton Cole the footballer. He has size, strength, speed, athleticism, the ability to go past players and can score goals with either foot. He has all tools to be a great player but is a journeyman footballer at best, because his game management is questionable and he is erratic. Krygios is tennis answer to Carlton Cole in my opinion.
