It seems that medvedev is going to win the los cobos tournament he is really looking in top shape that semi final win against kecmanovic was well deserved he dominated that game especially the second set, he had 12 aces and he only lost one serve all game long, he will face norrie in the final but since it is a hard court i think medvedev will win comfortably.
The match gonna start in few hours. I don't think this going to be an easy win for Medvedev. Norrie have reached the final winning against one of the young player Felix Augur. Reaching the finals Medvedev have once again confirmed his position. Medvedev leads the track on head to head, with a win in the Shanghai Masters 6-3 6-1

Somehow it is unfortunate that Kyrgios behaves very unprofessionally very often. I think that comes at the expense of his level. Okay, he recently made it to a Wimbledon final, but someone with his talent should have won a Grand Slam tournament at least once. But that's in his personality. He used to be seen as one of the greatest talents and the potential number 1 in the world but I don't think that will happen anymore. I wonder if he will ever win a Grand Slam again. There are a lot of people who don't like him but he is loved by the vast majority of the public because he always entertains the crowd during the matches.
Right, we have debated that here in this thread, there are a lot of what if on Nick. He has the talent indeed, but he wasted so many opportunities and could have won at least 1 Grand Slam already if not for his attitude inside and outside of the court.
Nevertheless that is his personality, maybe it is true that he doesn't care about this career. Or maybe it is now that he realized as he mature that he has to at least accept the fact that winning is achievable and that he can be a great player.

And 3 sets it was! first two sets were very close, both tie breaks but it looks like Tiafoe
fell away in the third set.
Mikael Ymer us playing fantastic and after beating Korda! is into a semi final to face Nick.
The other semi is Rublev1 v Nishioka.
I would like to think it will be a Kyrgios v Rublev final.

And as others have predicted, Kyrgios won in 3 sets against Tiafoe, didn't see the match but it will be interesting how Tiafoe feel in the 3rd set, or it is really Nick playing very well?
Yeah, possible that it could be Rublev vs Kyrgios in the mens finals.
Another disappointing run for Emma Raducanu as she lost to No 60 Liudmilla Samsonova, 7-6, 6-1.

Nick is leading Opelka, 7-6, 2-1 before the match has been suspended. Not the only one though, 2 other matches as well because of the lightning.
Kyrgios won the match against Paul. He was very focused in this match as well. Just like last year he wants to get to the final in Washington again. If he keeps playing like this, I think it is realistic. The first set was decided in a tiebreak as predicted from Kemarit. I will be curious to see when it starts again and if Kyrgios are still focused.
Could be but you can't still discount that fact that he has a tremendous year, he reached the Wimbledon finals and face Djokovic, although he lost that is a top 10 players. We could have witnessed a great fight between him and Nadal, unfortunately, Rafa is injured. But he beat Tsitsipas along the way, another top player, but you can argue that he is more of a clay court player, but still. Could be tricky match against Tiafoe @aoluain said, but maybe, just maybe could go down in 3 sets for Nick.

Nick kyrgios performance look really solid he has beating easily some good players in hard courts such as tommy paul and opelka, i think that if he manage to beat tiafoe he will win the tournament easily which i think will likely happen he has been really good recently first by reaching wimbeldon and now by make in it to the semi final easily.
Paul Kyrgios won by leaving behind has won Kyrgios is expected to be very strong going into the finals as looking back over the past few days one can definitely see that his game has changed a lot. The game has changed so much that you can definitely predict the final because Paul has come forward and definitely the final match I think they will be in.

Yea he seems to have carried his performance from Wimbledon. I havent seen
any of his matches or even the highlights. Has he been carrying on with his complaining
and giving out as well?
Up next for him is Tiafoe in the quarter finals, could be a tricky match.
I cant believe I have been betting on Nick, he is making Satoshi's for me! I dont
know how to bet on his quarter final.
Right, not sure what happen to Nick but it was a complete U-turn as he is really performing great that we have never seen from him in the last 2-3 years.
Well if he is making satoshis for us then why break it? I will probably go and continue to bet on him until his winning streak ends. And maybe he can go and continue into the finals because of the momentum from Wimbledon showing.

Alex De Minaur as 11 seed was upset Nishioka of Japan. And Rune destroys Paire in 2 easy sets.
Another upset is Hurcacz, he is the number 2 seed but he was badly beaten by E. Ruusuvuori.
Lots of good matches to watch later, Kyrgios vs Opelka is one, Rublev vs Cressy.
In the ladies side, top seed Pegula was ousted by Gavrilova, 5-7, 4-6.

Match between Kyrgios and Opelka will be pretty intresting due to both players have an amazing serve,it might be boring until we see a tie break but it will be nice to see what can happen. Rune also finally wins and breaks his losing streak,he destroyed Paire and this might be the boost he needed.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Rune losing streak, I think we have discussed it so finally he won a match and it's just unfortunate that it will be against Paire (although he is only on a bad form lately and very inconsistent)
At the ATP tournament in Washington Kyrgios has played against Paul. Kyrgios was very focused and won the match. 19 hours later it is his turn again and he will play against Opelka. I expect Kyrgios to win that match as well. Opelka is not playing so well at the moment.

It is tough going over there in the 35° heat yesterday. We watch the match between
Halep and Kalinskaya. Both players had medical time outs but Halep retired after being
broken in the second set, another top seed exits.

It is really amazing what the tennis players achieve in these temperatures. But that does not just apply to tennis but to every sport. Even as a spectator you are sweating all the time and do not really want to move. For the athletes mental fitness is very important in such cases.
Right and this is where it separates the best of them, top 3, + Murray, they can still play under this worst conditions. But others usually falters and can't adjust their style of play in heat.
Wasn't able to check what's going on with the Halep match, but I read that she retired or something. Raducanu though won her match, and maybe those ladies top seed are falling because of the weather as well, same with some of the men's seeded players.

Kyrgios is going very well, I was going to bet on him against Paul but didnt in the end.
I think today he will also be too much against Opelka. I'm going to go with a small bet on him.
