Not sure how Zverev lost momentum in the third set but it was not all about Thiem winning, it was also about Zverev not taking his chances, Zverev served for the championship and both players also broke each other in that all important fifth set.

Well done to both players

Even though Zverev lost the momentum, at the same time Thiem didn't lose hope and showed commitment that he could come back from behind and win. I think Zverev was not able to handle the big match pressure of the final. He only had to won a single set out of the last three but couldn't manage to do so.

Nice win and nice comeback for Thiem, he deserved the victory! Lets hope, he can take some next steps and also win the French Open (against Nadal).

If I am correct, there was only 1 positive Covid case in the US Open, which is very good. This shows that with good organisation and with the correct safety measures, you can safely organize big events.

I think this what separates the big 3 from the rest of the young guns right now. The big 3 (Djokovic, Nadal and Federer), really know how to dig deeper when it needed, and they don't melt under the pressure that's why they've become so successful.

Alexander Zverev won the semi final match coming from behind and in the final Dominic Thiem replicated the same and won the tournament. After the first two sets i did not expect Dominic Thiem to win the match but he was able to someone regain his composure and his will to win in the absence of the big three it was the perfect circumstance.

@ eaLiTy your prediction of Alexander Zverev getting exhausted coming into to the final was spot on as he lost the next three sets and may be due to exhaustion.

Thiem wins 2-6 4-6 6-4 6-3 7-6 (8-6)

What a match to come from 2 sets down to win the tournament 3-2 on a tie breaker. Congratulations to Thiem who will probably replace Djokovic as world #1 at the French Open. Zverev should have won it in straight sets but lost the mental battle, even in the tie breaker he had chances but failed to capitalise and Thiem won it.

And it looks like Thiem is getting closer or at least discovered it himself with this gruelling match against Zverev. Congratulations to Thiem for winning this years Covid-19 plague US Open 2020. And Kudos to the ITF for making sure everyone involved is safe.

Yes credit to her, she was played off the court in the first set and lost it 6 games to 1 but fought back after having her serve broken to find herself 2 games down in the second set. Well done to Azarenka for getting this far after all she has been through.

Next up, Thiem vs Zverev starts in 25 minutes time Grin

The magnificent return of Osaka and a great victory.
This young girl is really not afraid of anything and has the quality and psyche needed to become the greatest tennis player.
For a long time no girl has dominated women’s tennis but Osaka can change that.
The time of Serena and her domination has obviously passed.

I wanted to open a dedicated thread for the US Open to keep posts on-topic rather than post have one thread dedicated to all of tennis which was started 5 years ago way back in 2015.

I think the comments posted in this thread have been good, it has good to have a discussion around the US Open in this thread.

Quote from: casperBGD on September 08, 2020, 06:24:37 AM

why did you open new topic for US Open, and from the quarter-final, there is a topic for tennis, where US Open was discussed?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/tennis-league-all-thread-1200104

there is not much comments there daily, but i do not see why do you expect that there will be more if you call your thread US Open 2020?

Today Osake will play against Azarenka for the title and I am slightly leaning towards Azarenka. I think it will be a closer match, than the bookies expect, so I placed a bet at over 2.5 sets (@2.3).

Victoria Azarenka is a big underdog and i like the odds and there is no doubt that Naomi Osaka dropped a round from the early rounds and the theme for Naomi Osak in the tournament was dropping the second match and i wont be surprised if Victoria Azarenka becomes the champion and her theme was to drop the first round and then win the next two convincingly, over 2.5 sets is a good bet.

Alexander Zverev played a match of his lifetime in the semi finals after dropping the first two games i thought he surrendered the match and then to come back and win was incredible but coming against the inform Dominic Thiem he might struggle and he will be exhausted with the number of hours Zverev spent in this tournament and i am picking Dominic Thiem to win.

I agree, Thiem is the one who has regularly progressed further than any other player outside of Federer, Nadal and Djokovic.

I think Azarenka will definitely give it her best, she might even upset the odds and win but Osaka is definitely favourite even though Azarenka battled past S Williams.

Thiem has the best chances to win, but I hope that Zverev will win. I placed a bet on him to win the US Open (@33) Grin

. Of all the young talents out there, Thiem has made the most progression given his results at the grand slams. If he would be able to win the French Open against Nadal, than maybe the era of the big 3 is over ?!

My prediction is the same as most people, I will choose Dominic Thiem to win the final match against Alexander Zverev.
When compared from the data, Thiem's winning percentage is far superior to Zverev and Thiem's ranking is also above Zverev.
Moreover, Thiem is older than Zverev, therefore Thiem should be more experienced. So it is very likely that Thiem will be the winner.
This will makes Thiem the first Austrian tennis player to win US OPEN, if it manages to beat Zverev.

On paper it was easy win for Thiem who won all 3 sets in under 3 hours, and Medvedev compared him with top level players like Djokovic, Federer and Nadal.
This was Thiem 3rd time win against Medvedev.

WTA Osaka - Azarenka
All odds are on Naomi Osaka side also won and last two h2h matches against Azarenka.
Osaka win again for me here.

Thiem and Zverev are best friends on and off the tour. it will be an emotional rollercoaster for them both but Thiem will probably win this match and claim his first Grand Slam. To be fair Thiem certainly deserves it because he has been knocking on the door a long time now.

Here is Thiem recent Grand Slam record and the reason why I think he will win the US Open:

2016: French Open semi-final (lost to Djokovic)
2017: French Open semi-final (lost to Nadal)
2018: French Open finalist (lost to Nadal)
2019: French Open finalist (lost to Nadal)
2020: Australian Open finalist (lost to Djokovic)
2020: US Open finalist

Thiem has already beaten Djokovic and Nadal at Grand Slams and is finally at the age of 27 on his way to becoming a multiple Grand Slam winner. His record at the French Open shows he will be second favourite behind Nadal to win it and he already made the Australian Open final in 2020.

@JollyGood Zverev vs Thiem is the dream finale for this tournament, and I believe that this match will be really long, because both will badly want to win this tournament, and they won’t give up till the very end. Also I agree with your prediction as I too believe that Thiem has an excellent chance of winning this tournament, but then again we should not underestimate Zverev too because he definitely has the potential to defeat Thiem.

did not expected that, Zverev to play five sets, and Thiem to play only three
but when you have a deep look on the stats and on the match, Zverev was not that present in first two sets, so he actually beat Busta in three sets, from 0:2 to 3:2, and Thiem had a much harder task with two tie-breaks, that are certainly brought additional self-confidence for both of them

it will be an interesting final, both have similar chances IMO, but i will put something on Alex, and see where this is going to go

OP updated - congratulations to the US Open finalists:

Zverev vs Thiem

I would say Osaka and Thiem would be eventual winners.
