Wow, just wow, I thought that Zverev will get this one, anyways, nothing to be ashamed of his performance, he just feel short as Thiem is more tough mentally and was able to come back after 2 sets down.

Congrats to Thiem, we have a new champion not name Federer, Nadal and Djokovic in the US Open, and to Osaka as well.

Edit:

Just to recap, many players have pulled out in this years US Open because of the pandemic scare.

Mladenovic and Babos (top seed women's double) has been withdrawn from the tournament because of close contact with someone who is positive of the corona virus.

Djokovic accidentally hitting a line judge and was disqualified

Thiem's awkward moments (Red Bull) incident.

@Kemarit Zverev played like a true champion and he should be very proud of his performance, but I feel that Thiem played slightly better and it was also evident that he badly wanted to win it, and that’s why he constantly hung in the match and managed to win it. Also now these two need to step up against Roger, Nadal and Djokovic, because if they fail to beat them, then people will never give them the respect they deserve.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the fourth grand slam final for Thiem, and finally won one Grand Slam title, let will see about next Grand Slam French Open, can He reach another final Grand Slam since He is good in clay.
Osaka has good stats in Grand Slam final, which has three finals Grand Slam and all the finals won by her.

This is what we wanted to see an epic battle between two up and comers in the sport. Thiem has all the momentum after coming back from losing the first two sets, I think with Thiem its his nerves early on in big matches but once he settles into his game he is hard to stop which we are now seeing. Zverev is fighting back after Thiem took the first game in the fifth set for now Zverev to break back. This is going to be an epic fifth set, I can just feel it.

So obviously, I will still be rooting for him against Thiem, looking for another 5 set and the first one to blink, will lose.

Zverev is up 2 sets to 1 and going into 4th set now, Thiem leading 0-1 and Zverev serving. Hold your horses mate, it's living up to its expectation but obviously Zverev is leading and the 4th set is must win situation for Thiem, he will fight this out for sure.

Now match is very interesting Zverev won first 2 sets but now Thiem is in total control won third set now in fourth both fighting hard for every point look like we can go in fifth and final set if Thiem play like this in remaining match leading by 4 - 3 very epic match right now.

Anyone taking Zverev to win tonight?

Thiem was my favorite as soon as Đoković was disqualified, but the odds with a boost are 4.20 on Zverev.

It's a final, I'm taking this for sure. Thiem is a better player and is in better form, but these odds are just silly. Even handicap is placed at 5,5.

My friend is betting on Zverev while i am going with Thiem who is favorite. In the last match Zverev lost the two initial sets and i am sure he can afford to do the same in this final match. Odds are good for both of these players.

^ Yes, it is expected, and actually we have been calling it for years now. We need fresh blood to pump up the tennis scene and stay away from the big 3. However, we want them healthy playing their best and see how the young generations are going to react to them.

If not for the pandemic, I'm sure it could either be Nadal or Djokovic in the finals, not downplaying Thiem, Zverev and Medvedev and others. But the pandemic has benefited them someway. So I do hope that the future of tennis will rest on the hands of this 3 and other rank players.

I didn't get to watch the Women's final but from the looks of the stats it was a good final going to three sets. Osaka fought back strong after going down 6-1 in the first set. Its always good to see players come back like what Azarenka has been able to do and now I hope she can continue on with this form, congrats to Osaka on winning her second US Open title.

Now we move onto the Men's final which after Djokovic was out, most of us were hoping for this final between Zverev and Thiem. Lets hope that it will be an epic final between the two as just think its the first Grand Slam final without the big three in many years, I can't even remember the last Grand Slam final where there was no Federer, Nadal and Djokovic.

Last time when we have Grand Slam Final without big three its nearly around 2003 or 2002 because after this we have never any final without these big 3 giants now hopefully we will have many without them as Federer is going out and age factor is also creating problems for him Djokovic is still good but Nadal is not in for some time may be this gape create some serious problems for him Thiem and Zverev and Medvedev these can bring some good change in coming years.

If Djokovic was not disqualified, then probably we will still see 1 of the 3 in the finals, unfortunately it is a big disappointment for Djokovic as he didn't lost in the tennis ground. We are hoping to see other names in a final for more than 10 years, however, with the circumstance surrounding today, the pandemic, Federer and Nadal are out and then Djokovic disqualification, I think this US Open 2020 is an exception.

Anyhow, will be thrilled to see Thiem vs Zverev today, and I will go with the favourite in Thiem here.

It was expected that this would happen one day, that someone other than Federer, Nadal or Djokovic finally wins the GS.
Too bad it happened this way when due to health problems and coronavirus Federer and Nadal didn't even come at all and Djokovic was disqualified.
However, Nadaj will still be the favorite to win the GS in Paris and Djokovic the favorite to win all the other GS.
Thiem, Medvedev and Zverev are certainly the future of tennis but I’m not sure their time has already come.

Damn, @Trofo, just shows how odds are changing every minute and gamblers can smell a victory from afar. But still nice if you get @3 something, but still more juicy if it is @7. hehehehe.

Osaka managed to win US open with a great comeback against Azarenka. I was watching the second set and it was really like she flipped the switch and added that bit of extra power and accuracy to her ground strokes. I saw that while she was 2:0 down in second set and placed a bet for her to win. When i started placing the bet odds were @7.5 and they dropped [email protected] before my bet finally got accepted. I guess a lot of people had the same idea as me and then came the break of Azarenka serve. Nice odds anyway but those original odds were so much better, if only I was few seconds faster

What do you guys think of A. Zverev?, I'm keeping a close eye on him in this tournament and it seems he is really doing good, much more relax than I've ever seen him (I do hope that I didn't jinx Alex here).

Quote from: Kemarit on September 05, 2020, 09:19:52 PM

I will be rooting for Zverev now since Stefanos is gone

I intentionally didn't post here because I don't want to jinx Zverev, LOL, because I have a bet on him reaching the finals and winning the US Open. So I'm excited that he finally made it against Busta, it was a nail biting match, he was down 0-2 and out of nowhere, fought back and win the semis.

So obviously, I will still be rooting for him against Thiem, looking for another 5 set and the first one to blink, will lose.

It's time for the ladies to shine, currently, Osaka and Azarenka fighting it out. 1-1, third set, 5-3 for Osaka, but it looks like Naomi will have this one in the bag as she is serving for the match.

Edit: Naomi Osaka is the women's US Open 2020, congrats.

Tomorrow or later (whichever timezone you have), we will see the men's side, Thiem vs Zverev.

Ver good win for Osaka she done good job in last two sets after losing first set very badly she deserve this title now time for big match just 21 hours left for new US Open champion for me Thiem is going to win this match without any serious trouble.

Azarenka reached final, did not saw that coming, somehow expected Serena to won the masters
will be interesting to see final between Azarenka and Osaka, quotes are on Osaka side, but would not count-out Azarenka at all after win over Serena

Yes, expecting Serena to win this year's US Open, but Azarenka, losing the first set and then coming back to win? Probably this is the last time that we are going to see Serena in my opinion. Naomi hold 2 to 1 head to head, but it doesn't matter though, this is a good finals for the womens side and I wouldn't be surprised if Azarenka put another comeback win.

Azarenka fight back very strongly in final 2 sets her win against Mertens was really shocking for me as I was not expecting from her win like this she completely outclass her with just 6 -1 and 6 - 0 this is turning point for her hopefully she could be very good in final as well and we will able to have very entertaining final for this years Grand Slam US Open.

Who wouldn't have thought that the US Open is this much as exciting? Of course, I'm hoping for a Serena finals appearance, but nothing to take away from Osaka vs Azarenka, this is still a very entertaining match for this year. In the mens side, Thiem will the favourite, Zverev is also playing very aggressively and strong in this tournament, but he will be very tired on the way he beat Busta, so I do hope he can rest a bit. But I think Thiem will also bring his A-game and win this years US Open. At least it's not the big 3 anymore although, Federer is injured, Nadal opted not to play and Djokovic... we know what happens to him.

Zverev clawing back after 2 sets down to Busta and now leading the 5th and final set, what a comeback, 2-1 up now. They are like entering the 3 hour mark of the match. It looks like Busta was slowing down and Zverev getting his second wind in the match. Still a lot of tennis though and unpredictable, but Zverev has a good chance to win and goes to the finals.

Edit: @vella85 somewhat beat me to it, but I'm watching it currently.
