As I said yesterday, Tsitsipas on hard is exactly the type of opponent you hope to get in an ATP1000 tournament final.
Čorić was playing well throughout the tournament and really does deserve this, it is his first tournament win since 2018.

should put close eye on him at US open

I think he'll jump like 100 places with these points which should earn him automatic qualification to US Open. A tournament win at the right time Grin

Not just qualification, he is now top 30 and that is enough for him to be seeded. Meaning he should have 3 "easy" matches before needing to play another one of seeded players.

Watched the match and Coric was good, but it was Tsitsipas breakdown that granted him the title. When both played their best tennis Tsitsipas was better but Coric kept his levels through whole match whlie Tsitsi was full of ups and downs.

congrats to Coric, did bot believed in him, but he earned this title, kicked-out Nadal, and few other top players, with Tsitsi last night
did not looked that way in the beginning, but he stormed through tie-break and saved three break points in his first serve in second set, that eventually leaved Tsitsi broken down

should put close eye on him at US open

Brilliant from Coric, In his first service game of the first set he got broken, he couldnt hit
a winner ans Tsitsipas was exceptional, it looked like he was reading Coric's play but
Coric came back into it and blasted his way through the tie break. I went to bed after
that and hoped he could win the second too.

Cant believe he did so easily 2-6.

Did anyone have Coric to win in any way?

Wow, huge win for Coric, I never expect him to win the tournament. And during the firs set I was able to caught the score at 4-1 Tsisitipas. And then when I came back, it's 6-6 and I said that Coric is going to win this set and maybe the tournament.

There are really a lot of surprises for this year, at least it was a good year as there are a lot of players winner 250, 1000 masters and there is no single dominant player that we have seen so far.

Amazing to see Coric win a Masters event. Tsitsipas played pretty well but Coric looked fresh throughout the match, not dropping his level. Isn't it very rare for a player rated over 100-150 to win a Masters event? Well, Coric always had the skills to be in top 20. He was ranked 12th in the world, not too long ago. Good to see him back in form.

What happened to tsitsipas in today final he was doing good on the first set against coric and he was leading 4 2 after managing to break coric serve and then his performance started going down he lost his serve and lost 7 0 in the tie breaks not to mention the second set that was a disaster, either way coric did well today he seem in a great shape a totally deserved win.

Tsitsipas gave hard fight, and he looks so tired. It was same as the set against Medvedev, but things didn't worked out this time. If I'm not wrong, Coric have pre-planned the match after the defeat of Medvedev. In the past we used to see only certain players in the finals. Now those scenario have changed. In the doubles semifinal Tsitsipas and Rune have given a walkover which according to me seemsto be out of injury or being tired don't let him perform.

Tsitsipas wasn't into it at all. A 2-0 win by Coric is shocking. Odds must be like 8x?

Anyways, he deserve to lose

Check this out : https://www.reddit.com/r/tennis/comments/wubdbt/interestingly_tsitsipas_is_on_toilet_break/

He was getting coached again by his daddy during the break(which is not legal if the player is off court).

Coric's recent climb is magnificent, from #159 to #29 is amazing. Proud of him Cheesy

he gave up in the second half, Tsitsipas got three chances to break in the first game of the 2nd set but failed, we could have seen something different if he succeeded, but when Coric kept putting pressure on Tsitsipas serve while winning his easily, it destroyed the hope and motivation for Tsitsipas to comeback, great tournament and run for Coric, well deserved.

Tsitsipas is an uninhibited and unpredictable player. Was still seen as the future number 1 in the world. He does have the talent, but at times seems to be very impatient. Of course, that could have everything to do with his age. He has not yet won a grand slam but was in the final of Roland Garros in 2021. As long as Nadal continues to play tennis, he can forget about Roland Garros for the time being. But Alcaraz also scores high on Gravel. I wonder how they will both do at the US open. And Djokovic can cry at home in front of the TV. Or should he be present as a spectator? Roll Eyes

Well he was really great in the past two years, but seems to not passed when facing tough opponents like Djokovic, Nadal or even Medvedev, and he is best known to be a clay court player, and yeah very inconsistent in his year.

The game has started already, Tsitsipas has the lead in the first set. Let's see if this is the tournament that he can win against Boric. Boric though is a tough cookie to break. In the women's it was Caroline Garcia defeating Kvitova for the title.

We can of course argue that age might play a role, and when we look at Murray it was a bit similar. Murray lost four grand slam finals before he won the US Open I think, but it's not like Tsitsipas is 19 anymore. Murray was 25 when he won his first final and I think given that he already played a good number of big finals, it is also about time for him. Otherwise he might turn into this guy who loses finals forever and ever. What catches eye though is that the finals he won were usually against weaker players while most of the finals he lost were against the big three guys. Even when it seemed to be close against Djokovic in Roland Garros, it actually wasn't. Djokovic turned it around with ease more or less even when he was down 0 - 2.
Tsitsipas needs to find a much more dominant game against the strongest guys in the world. My assumption is that Nadal and Djokovic will still be around in three years from now. Djokovic for sure and Nadal might choose the tournaments he is going to play very wisely.

Čorić really does have a great shot at the title. I expected Medvedev to win against Tsitsipas - on hard I feel he's a much tougher opponent.

They played 2 times against each other, Tsitsipas won on clay (Čorić forfeted during the 1st set) while Čorić has a win in 2020 US Open.

Although Tsitsipas has a much higher ranking, I like Čorić's chances today.

Would have been all over that ML on Coric if I knew his physical levels. He hasn't played this many matches in a row in last 5 years probably. Could be fatigue setting in but otherwise Tsitsipas at hard surface is probably very ok draw for ATP 1000 series final. Especially after already winning against Nadal, FAA and Norie. Should be a good match and I plan to watch it tonight.

WTA: Kvitova vs Garcia finals will be some attacking masterpiece. Both players just go all out attacking while have decent defensive skills as well. Garcia will be looking to get to the net more often to shorten the rallies as Kvitova is very comfortable from the baseline and would probably be better at it. Should be interesting affair. I'd give it to Kvitova to win but Garcia has surprised us all until now.

Coric really made a fantastic result in this tournament:

''Coric reached his first ATP Masters 1000 final since shoulder surgery last year, outplaying Norrie throughout as he won 6-3 6-4 in just over 90 minutes.''
''Both semi-finals were delayed by rain and Coric added: "At the beginning I was not there, I was not feeling the ball very well. Then I did find my rhythm. I started to serve better, I started to play much better and I think that was the key to the match."
''Coric, who beat Rafael Nadal earlier in the tournament, will now face a third career meeting with world number seven Tsitsipas and could improve his ranking to as high as 29th with victory.''

Source: https://www.bbc.com/sport/tennis/62622489

All of us here in Croatia, his fans, ask ourselves the same question: "How did Coric suddenly start playing so well and winning after being nowhere for so long?" Grin

This situation almost reminds me of Ivanisevic's performance in Wimbledon 2001 and his unexpected winning of that GS.
We all know that Coric was a great talent in world tennis and a former twelfth player in the world, but after a shoulder injury he was nowhere to be seen for a long time and no one expected great results from him.
A truly great and unexpected return to the top of world tennis.

Coric playing very well. For the odds, I feel its worth taking a shot at him. Medvedev vs Tsitsipas, for the odds and it being a 3 setter. I don't see great value betting on Medvedev as they are almost equally talented. Medvedev is just a bit more consistent and mental fitness.

The odds will have variation based on the first set winning. For now the match is gonna start in another 30 minutes and it is good to go on live betting after the first set. On the head to head stats, Medvedev have won 7 times and Tsitsipas have won 2 times. Last time both have met at this year's Australian Open in which Medvedev have marked his win by the fourth set.

As suspected, both my picks worked out. I was just objectively picking the one that seemed value. Both "upsets" by the sportsbook makers but they surprisingly didn't consider recent form to be of much value, I suppose.

VERY WELL DONE!!

while your 2 bets came through, the favourites lost. Amazing.

Was watching the match for the first set and then for the second and thought Daniil had it wrapped up nearly giving Tsitsipas a bagel going up 5-0 at one point.
But then didn't watch the third as I thought he had it under control.
As you had said the favorites lost and Coric is on to the finals to meet up with Tsitsipas.
Unbelievable set of events to end up with these two in the final at Cinnci.
