Ghostsof1915 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 This must be a sign of the end of the world. First a Canadian Girl wins the US Open. Now we have a team that reached the Davis Cup Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 Hard fought match by Felix...can hold his head high and with pride. Next up Shap versus Nadal. What a feat to get here...let's go, Denis! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Marchand Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 A shame that Shapo's insane forehand winner on championship point was ultimately for naught, but he has nothing to be ashamed of. Denis and Vasek deserve nothing but praise for answering the call for Canada the entire week. Felix was put in a tough spot but did the best he could. Hope to see them all healthy next year.

RUPERTKBD Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Yep. Disappointing to lose, but making it to the final is a huge accomplishment, especially when you consider about half of the wins came at the hands of a guy ranked 150th in the world... Well done lads... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Marchand Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Bianca Andreescu was named the winner of the Lou Marsh Award for top Canadian athlete (male or female) of 2019. Congrats to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 What an amazing showing by Shap (vs Djokovic) yesterday. He lost but, my God, he could have easily won it too. Anyone see it? He's got a really bright future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Repeatedly interupted his serves with noise. It got bad enough that the chair umpire basically had to tell the crowd off. Shapovalov has been steadily improving his composure and shot selection since the middle of last year and especially since Mikhail Youzhny became his coach. I won't be surprised if he cracks the top ten this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where's Wellwood Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I could see Shapo being top 10 by March. Though I think definitely by July/August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunch of clowns with zero respect...I thought the umpire tried to address it and his wording was direct and intended to shame them. But they were too stupid. Thing is, I didn't think I really liked Djokovich but he seemed genuinely ticked off by it. That moved him into the other side for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Disappointing news today, as Bianca has withdrawn from the Australian Open. Her knee rehab isn't far enough along to allow her to play. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/sports/tennis/andreescu-withdraws-from-australian-open-with-knee-injury/ar-BBYQRQ9?li=AAggNb9 As disappointing as it is to miss a major, she's got her entire career ahead of her and there's no point taking chances....

WilliG Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) sad news. I love to watch tennis and Andreescu is one of my fav tennis players. I always check tennis results on xscores where I can click on any flag to open a new window with the tennis games of the selected country only. That's convy.

Ghostsof1915 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Maybe Andreescu has been the best thing for Bouchard. I know it's early in the AO. But I've never seen her look so driven and focused. Now she knows she's got to bring it. Then again the Australian Open has been one of her best tourneys.

Genie is kind of like house money now.....most of us have pretty much given up on her, so if she does well, it's a pleasant surprise.... ...much like Vasek in the Davis Cup....
