Australian Kyrgios began well but lost his way after he became frustrated by a line call in the first set in Beijing.

I gave slightly more chance to Rafa to win this match. I was wrong and I was right. Rafa won but really kicked Kirgyos ass.Australian Kyrgios began well but lost his way after he became frustrated by a line call in the first set in Beijing.

As you say, Krgios mental condition is the reason why he still isn't top 5 player. He has all the quality to be even number one but he can snap in a moment and that exactly what happened today.
Anyway, a season from dream continues for Nadal. Congrats to Rafa, he deserved everything that happened to him this year, one of his best seasons in career, constantly good through whole the year.

Goffin looking really strong against Mannarino in Tokyo but Mannarino is a good player but since Goffin is so good in defence I guess he will be able to win this finals although he might take 3 sets . I just love how he plays , one of the best all-round player we have .
here are the semifinals of the 2 Asian Tournaments atp500:
Beijing Tournament:
Nadal vs Dimitrov
Kyrgios vs A.Zverev
Tokyo Tournament:
Cilic vs Mannarino
Goffin vs Scwartzman
My favorites are Nadal and Cilic
Nadal will play against Kyrgios in the finale in China, I expect great battle of those two guys and give slight advantage to Nadal.Beijing Tournament:
Nadal vs Dimitrov
Kyrgios vs A.Zverev
Tokyo Tournament:
Cilic vs Mannarino
Goffin vs Scwartzman
My favorites are Nadal and Cilic
Cilic on the other side played disappointed match at its very end. Manarino took brake for 5-3 lead in second set but Cilic made re-break. I thought that we will see another tie-break but Manarino surprised and won second set with another break. Marin collapse totally and lost third set with zero. So strange for Grand Slam Champion.
I don`t know what to expect fro Japan finale but if I had to decide I would give slightly bigger chance to Goffin.

Great win of the very young Rublev (19 years old) against the expert Berdich.
With this victory he will improve his ranking (at least 35 th) and if he comes to the final he will enter for the first time in his career in top 30!
Among the players under 20, the best 3 this year were: A.Zverev, Shapovalov and Rublev himself.
I would rate Rublev more than Shapovalov , no doubts both are great talent but Rublev seems more matured when it comes to big matches and his game is awesome With this victory he will improve his ranking (at least 35 th) and if he comes to the final he will enter for the first time in his career in top 30!

For today I really like the Murray/Soares 2-0 vs Paire/Ramos. The ML is @1.20 and the 2-0 is @ 1.57.
For me, the Murray and Soares is one of the best couple in Tennis, they play against two tennis players that have never played together before.
I believe the Murray/Soares couple are obligated to win this game, I dont see a surprise with Paire/Ramos here.
Murray/Soares are playing to access the Masters in ondon this year, and they cannot lose a game like this. Ramos have been playing really bad this year too.
So Murray and Soares win 6-1,7-5. Pretty easy win for those who put money on it. Both really good tennis players that should have won easy and did. For me, the Murray and Soares is one of the best couple in Tennis, they play against two tennis players that have never played together before.

British tennis player Dan Evans has been banned for one year after testing positive for cocaine, which he explained had accidentally mixed with his medication in a washbag.
To be honest, that won't affect tennis community much. So, I don't care much though.
