Mackenzie McDonald managed to win the match by scoring points in the second and third sets quite absolutely, even though in the first set he lost to Jeffrey John Wolf without any heated competition, but in the next set Mackenzie McDonald really looked aggressive.
I thought Mackenzie McDonald would lose this match but it turned out that that assumption was wrong and he proved that losing in the first set was just gift for Jeffrey John Wolf because after that there was no mercy for him.

Tomorrow Mackenzie McDonald will compete against Jannik Sinner who is one of the great young tennis players who has even been ranked as one of the top 8 players in the ATP.
From this match it looks like Mackenzie McDonald will experience difficulties.

Even though Jannik Sinner is the seed in this match, it is also possible that he will lose because there are quite a lot of cases where the seeded player actually loses to player ranked below him.

IMO I dont think Sinner is going to lose today, I think he is mentally strong ATM because
he is performing well and getting the results, he is up to world ranking #4.

The odds for today are Sinner 1.08 - 7.0 McDonald

The interesting match of the day is Tsitsipas v Felix AA the odds are even enough because
of Felix' tournament win at Basel.

Jannik Sinner greatness is no longer in doubt and he won the match but only by very narrow point difference in three sets of games.
It true that now he has risen in rank and is in 4th place all of this achievement is thanks to his hard work who always tries to win every match.

Previously, I said that it was possible that Jannik Sinner would lose because in previous cases several top tennis players actually lost to players who were still far below him.
And in every sporting event there will be surprises, I think you can understand what I am saying.

Tsitsipas won the match and so far Tsitsipas can still be relied on as a favorite.

I can understand what you say about top players losing to lower ranked players but
on this recent case Sinner technically wasnt beaten, he forfeit the match to de Minaur.

Todays semi finals are:

Dimitrov v Tsitsipas - I wouldnt bet on this one, Dimitrov could well beat Tsitsipas
but also Tsitsipas could actually make it to the final.

Djokovic v Rublev - I cant see Djokovic losing this and either playing Tsitsipas or Dimitrov
in the final will mean he will beat either of the two.

lots of news today in Italian newspapers reporting Sinner's retirement from Paris.
there is no doubt that this game schedule can clearly disadvantage some players, but it seems that ATP has no intention of doing anything about it...

Yea there is a lot of talk about the scheduling of the matches and the fact that Sinner v
McDonald had to play so late.

TBH Sinner is probably my favourite player ATM but is withdrawal of the match with de Minaur
is a bit sour. As McDonald said he would have loved to play against de Minaur himself and
it was late for both players.

I find it somewhat interesting that a good sport gambler could start to bets against main/ favored players as Sinners in this case, but with a bad schedule of the match. I had seen something similar in Rome this year between Musetti and Tsitsipas... game played late at night there too...
I think that before ATP decide to take actions there are nice chance Roll Eyes

ahead ...

I'm most curious about Rune's chances against Đoković in their probable QF duel.
At first you'd say he's got no chance, but then again he's one of the rare players with a positive H2H against Novak.

Last time they played on hard it was in the final of this same tournament, where Rune overturned Đoković's 1-0 set lead.

Does anybody feel Rune's got a chance here?

Rune has won once in paris against Djokovic if im not mistaken. Anything is possible but after that first match that Djokovic played i think he looks unbeatable. Plus Djokovic must be motivated even more because Alcaraz got knocked out but i think Rune might cause some problems to Djokovic,but i think Djokovic will win in the end,if they play in the next round against each other

But they recently announced that Nadal will play the Australian Open, but of course it is all dependent on his physical condition. Though in one interview I saw like a week ago, he said he is confident that he will play the next season and that it is probably going to be the last season.

Oh yeah, maybe I read the rumors because often appear on social media which are not entirely true, hopefully, he will really come back and play at AO 2024 and it has also been confirmed that several former AO women's champions will also return to the court such as Naomi Osaka and Angelique Kerber.

ATP Paris Masters, I'm sure no one expected Carlos Alcaraz to defeat Roman Safiulin even if it happened in two straight sets, I was behind watching this match but seeing Alcaraz lose to the qualifier was quite surprising and he has to throw away his dream of taking over the 1st ranking from Djokovic because he stated his target closed this year is to become the number 1st ranking player, and his defeat reduces one competitor for Djokovic in this tournament.
It is also quite surprising to see Djokovic play doubles with his compatriot Miomir Kecmanović because it is a rare thing that Djokovic wants to play doubles in an important Masters tournament because he usually only focuses on singles.

Indeed, Nadal leaving tennis is another big loss after Federer said goodbye. These guys were the ones who made me watch my first tennis games. I never particularly liked it, but then I don't know when, but I saw a match between those two and I was blown away by the precision tennis professionals can apply to the ball with their tennis rackets and these games were so intense that I happened to watch a game that was like 4.5 hours or so. This was what made me think tennis is boring, but then I saw this 4.5 hours 100% precision shots and I was shocked about it.

But Djokovic said in an interview now that he is far from quitting and for as long as he is called the favorite for Grand Slam tournaments, he won't stop playing.

Currently Bublik is playing Dimitrov - it seems Bublik is playing well again, this one could go
either way...

Bublik lost in straight sets to Dimitrov and this was a fairly quick match that finished in only around 1 hour 7 minutes, Dimitrov was playing very well at the moment.

Quote from: aoluain on November 02, 2023, 05:43:59 AM

Tsitsipas plays Zverev later and this definitely could go either way

Zverev vs Tsitsipas looks like it will be a match that lasts 3 sets but it seems like it will still be difficult to predict who will win because sometimes both of them can play really phenomenally but it doesn't rule out the possibility of the opposite making the match end quickly

Quote from: aoluain on November 02, 2023, 05:43:59 AM

Sinner plays de Minaur later too - Sinner is favourite at 1.35 which I agree with, he should win
this one but could be tricky enough too over 3 sets.

Alex de Minaur is quite an agile player who can trouble his opponents because he will always try to catch the ball and hit it well, but he has bad statistics against Sinner, in five meetings he has never won once, but it could be that this will be his first win against Sinner to advance to the quarterfinals, 3 sets possible.

Yes a few surprises so far but there are still some "usual suspects" present in the round of 16
notably, Sinner, Rublev, Zverev and Tsitsipas and to a lesser extent but still notable is Dimitrov
and Hurkacz.

Currently Bublik is playing Dimitrov - it seems Bublik is playing well again, this one could go
either way...

Tsitsipas plays Zverev later and this definitely could go either way

Sinner plays de Minaur later too - Sinner is favourite at 1.35 which I agree with, he should win
this one but could be tricky enough too over 3 sets.

ATP Paris Masters, I'm sure no one expected Carlos Alcaraz to defeat Roman Safiulin even if it happened in two straight sets,

Just as Alcaraz was not expected to be bowled out in his first match, no one thought Ben Shelton would be either. He also was bowled out in the first round. He could only win one set against Davidovich Fokina. But in the second round against Griekspoor he was bowled out.
And unfortunately Fritz is also out. He cannot play in Paris due to an abdominal muscle injury.

So some surprises so far.

Surprising alright to see Alcaraz going out of the tournament in round 2. Maybe
he underestimated Safiullin or maybe he wasnt mentally ready.

Djokovic playing doubles is actually not that surprising, he has done it a few times this year,
I think he uses the doubles as another way to prepare for the singles matches.

I'm not really acquainted with the Tennis League but I'm quite familiar with the names and scores of these players. Jeffrey John Wolf versus Mackenzie McDonald, a fierce competition and only the best will take the lead by accumulating higher points. Watching two inconsistent players meeting each other, who would you place a wager on? Probably its our entire choice to make whatever decisions and thoroughly selects our player with full confidence. They both have their weaknesses and strong spot, it's left for them to employed good tactics among each other.

Surely winning the tie breaker in the first set was important, but I thought that Medvedev won't come back from that as this is sometimes his weakness and he often plays as if he gave up mentally. But this time he won the second set and I thought this could be the turning point in the match as the number of unforced errors went up for Sinner as well and Medvedev made use of his chances. Still though both Sinner and Medvedev aren't the most stable players on the tour, so it was open against after the game was tied in the second set. Yet he deserved the win I think.

The first set when Sinner managed to win through a tie break I thought the same as you that it would not be possible for Medvedev to come back and take the second set, but apparently he was able to but in the third set Sinner took it to become champion.
It's true that Medvedev isn't the most consistent player, but compared to others like Rune, Ruud, and Tsitsipas, he's a pretty consistent player, it's quite rare for him to lose in the early rounds of the tournament, but in the Paris Masters this time I doubt he'll make it far away because the tournament schedule is too close, and Djokovic and Alcaraz have the opportunity to repeat the Cincinnati and US Open finals

Quote from: temple on October 29, 2023, 06:34:52 PM

Medvedev is now already at the Paris Masters, the last exciting tournament of the year. Djokovic and Alcaraz are both there and then in about 2 months we'll know whether Nadal can make it true and play the Australian Open again. Hopefully it's going to happen.

There is no certainty that he will play at the Australian Open, indeed he has returned to training but in several interviews he is not sure about his body condition but because there are still around two months left, there will probably be many changes including finally him being fit to play in the first Grand Slam in 2024

But they recently announced that Nadal will play the Australian Open, but of course it is all dependent on his physical condition. Though in one interview I saw like a week ago, he said he is confident that he will play the next season and that it is probably going to be the last season.

The consistency you mentioned about Medvedev has quite positive consequences for him. Since he almost never fails to get through the early rounds, he consistently collects ATP points and hence is often ranked very highly. I was confused one time when I checked the ATP ranking and despite not winning a lot of tournaments, he is still listed at the top because of his continued performances that get him through the later rounds. But I don't particularly like him as a player because I hate it when he looks as if he hates the game he is playing.

Wolf - Mcdonald
Two inconsistent players of the tour face each other. Wolf is a step ahead with a good serve and more matches at this level lately, but he has had his ups and downs. McDonald is not a big fan of playing on indoor courts, but he is a tenacious player and can at least take the match to the top. Wolf is one step ahead.

Altmaier - Fils
Daneil Altmaier struggles on hard courts. Fils has been effective on indoor hard courts for some time now and he has a suitable opponent. Fils, who recently had a successful tournament in Antwerp and reached the final, is the favorite to win this match.

Sinner has definitely improved this year and noticeably in the second half, he just
might pull off the win and is worth a 2.15 bet.

Congratulations to the win.
But his record in the first half of the year is not that bad. He had difficulties with the tournaments on clay and the first ones on grass. His successes came back in Wimbledon.
By the way, Sinner lost the last tournament on hard surfaces against Medvedev in Miami...

That is truly remarkable. Last year he also won in Basel. After that he did not win a tournament at the ATP Tour. It is great that he won a tournament again after such a long time. Hopefully it will not be the same again from now on for him after he won in Basel last year.

Thank you!

Basel is Felix' lucky tournament. Hopefully he can grow his development for next season
and hopefully win some more tournaments.

The Paris masters are now happening and both Sonner and Medvedev play tomorrow,
but not against each other.

I believe Murray totally lost his composure and smashed his racket after losing against
de Minaur in 3 sets.

Two other interesting results in their own way from today:

Davidovic Fokina beat Shelton
and
Bublik beat Tiafoe

...and so it comes to pass, another final against Medvedev and Sinner. Both players won their
matches yesterday in 2 sets but in fairness they were hard fought battles with tie breaks for both.

So for todays final the odds are close: Medvedev 1.71 v 2.15 Sinner.

Sinner has definitely improved this year and noticeably in the second half, he just
might pull off the win and is worth a 2.15 bet.

Sinner had won the match against Medvedev 7⁹-6⁷ 4-6 6-3 which is real fight. The win of the first set through the tie breaker have made it a winning match for him. With the Vienna title win once again he makes himself a strong contender against Medvedev. Earlier in this month he won against him in the Beijing final. Medvedev at the presentation had mentioned it a tough match and both had met in four tour level finals this year and stands 2-2.

Yes great win by Jannik, he is playing really well lately. His H2H so far with Medvedev is 2 - 6.

I think that will improve with time, both players have beaten each other this year twice
each and I feel while Sinner is improving his game Medvedev has stayed at his current
level for a while now.
