Fed ain't doing shyt. Low-key if Nadal gets the juice he could win this. Might have to put some money on

 

[FloorGeneral]

Can't believe Novak lost this early. What the hell is going on with him? This result is not normal.

 

[Black Bolt]

GOAT a set up vs Safarova. Groundstrokes shaky, thankfully brought her serve with her

 

[Arrogance.]

He's still the King of Melbourne to me dammit

We talmbout Murray, but Stanimal benefits from this too.

Massively, all depends on who peaks the best over the next coming week between him, Murray and Nadal. A winner outside those three would be a real shock.

The Muzza era has begun but I can see someone like Nishikori winning this or even Dimitrov or Zevrev

Maybe Novak wasn't on the Juice and he just got old. You get old in Tennis fast, especially the way he plays.

Somebody like Raonic, Kai (who will lose then claim he has a lingering injury as usual), Theim, etc better realize a chance to win their maiden slam just improved and go take advantage of it because none of em are winning the FO.

My choice for a 1st time slam winner??? Tsonga. Would LOVE em to get the AO of Nadal, Fed, or Stan don't win. He really deserves to hoist a title. Him or Ferrer

He ain't been the same since the French

Still my dude though

 

[Spyro]

That was the best I've seen Nadal in 2-3 years, with Novak out he could genuinely win this brehs

Good shout on Kei both on his chances and physical shortcomings, I do like his game tho, definitely a contender. It'll be too soon for Thiem imo, the topboys still handle him relatively easily, he's got next for sure.

I'd absolutely love for Tsonga to win this, he'd need a perfect storm of events but where there's hope. Shame he didn't beat Novak here many years ago, the way he dealt with Rafa in the Semi Ferrer & his dry ass game can kick rocks
