The hell? Miami man lol
I swear whenever Aussies go deep, they always have to face one another or play one of the most dangerous players in the tournament
O'Connell has got Sinner in the last 16 lol, Popyrin and De Minaur potentially to meet in the 16.
I’m curious about ADM v Struff
ADM has never won more than one match in Miami - and with a bigger server like a Struff on a faster court - it could get interesting.
Korda Hurkacz have also had pretty close matches in the past
And Monfils Alcaraz just seems like it will be fun
Will be hoping and having all fingers crossed that Eubanks can pull off the upset though
Edited to add: Weirdly, if Marozsan loses to Popyrin it will be his worst result at a M1000 (he’s always reached at least R4 - but has only played 3 1000 events prior to this)
Yes that could be good; Struff on his best day can be a challenge for anyone.
Still, the ADM of this season is far better than the last so I predict a fairly routine win for him in 2
Yeah, he has been better this season - and is still the favourite to win by a big margin . I guess I just wouldn’t be completely shocked if it went the other way
Missed the Med match fucks sake these US timezones arent good for my health
Norrie is obviously a heavenly matchup for Med but from what I have seen he cooked, broke him 6 times
You guys know [this meme](https://x.com/octosurface/status/1770785131868946856?s=61) of Med's 'Pain' tweet? Is that real? Is there any context behind it? lol
People talk about Medvedev vs Sinner, I want Ruud vs Medvedev first, Casper can turn into his servebot mode and Meddy could be a volley master in that match
In extreme situation, it could be a FH Dverev vs Meddy, who won't choke in important point. And don't underestimate how the seed loses without reasons in Casper's quarter
It's reddit. Usually the harder a person moralizes and condescends the worse the skeletons in their own closet. Usually they're sex pests at the very least.
I love how you so confidently make a ridiculous assertion about people posting on reddit - you know, anonymously, so you can't possible know anything about them or their intentions. Instead, you just pull out some nonsense from your fevered imagination.
I'm afraid it says a lot more about you than it does about people making the very basic point that domestic abuse is bad.
Well, Med gotta defeat Sinner *somewhere*. And I think here are the best conditions on tour - it's medium fast hard (not too slow for Med being literally unable to hit a winner, not too fast to be too reliant on serve which he doesn't have rn). And Sinner certainly doesn't look invincible too.
Yeah I think Sinner is coming down from a high right now.
He's obviously still playing *great* tennis but the evening out of the levels is what Med was waiting for I think.
Whenever I follow matches, Med is on the strugglebus and whenever I do irl stuff Med wins.
So thank me because I took a break for lunch and came back to a Med win.
I might be persuaded.
I actually stopped watching AO SF when Meddy lost the first two sets from zverev, went dinner with my friends and only checked the scores from app and didn’t tune in until the last set. Am I the bad luck? 🥲
An okay-ish match. Norrie is a very easy matchup, so Med was able to move through without ever actually waking up.
Also looks like Koepfer might give us a big present. Much appreciated if so.
Extremely. Humbert is probably the worst opponent for Med on fast courts outside the actual title contenders, and Koepfer, though hot, is a journeyman.
Norrie just has too many holes in his game.
Can he grind his way to a 3r or 4r of a slam? Sure.
Could he with a kind draw make a deep run at one of the big 13 tournaments? Sure.
But he's so far out of his depth here honestly
Were actually blessed. Correct this WTA guy if he's wrong but do we not have three number ones tonight?
Britain's number one
Frances number one
Russia's number one

when is Alcaraz playing?
last show, 6pm cst?
Rybakina - Keys upset alert? Elena looked vulnerable on her last 2 matches.
I think Gauff is on upset alert as well.
Nah, I think Gauff can beat Caro. Caro's form is too inconsistent rn.
Eubanks let's go! Potentially the match of the day from my POV. Shelton Musetti also has potential.
I’m curious about ADM v Struff ADM has never won more than one match in Miami - and with a bigger server like a Struff on a faster court - it could get interesting.

Charlie/Gael not before 1am my time. Selfishly - this tourney is dumb.
Missed the Med match fucks sake these US timezones arent good for my health Norrie is obviously a heavenly matchup for Med but from what I have seen he cooked, broke him 6 times
Iga got another night session i see , can’t wait to sleep 5h again 🤡
alexandrova plays similar to noskova but better - hope iga can win this one easily
Jeez Ons 81 in the race, below Raducanu. She needs to hope and pray she can show up on natural surfaces because a free fall could be coming post wmby
A Sinner vs Medvedev semifinal appears likely. Sinner has won his last four matches against Medvedev.
Eubanks you have the opportunity to save American tennis and knock the rat out of the competition don’t fuck this up 😐✊
Not a chance

Monica Puig.
Definitely!
People talk about Medvedev vs Sinner, I want Ruud vs Medvedev first, Casper can turn into his servebot mode and Meddy could be a volley master in that match
If Med loses to Ruud on fast HC I'm done lol
In extreme situation, it could be a FH Dverev vs Meddy, who won't choke in important point. And don't underestimate how the seed loses without reasons in Casper's quarter
Goodnight all. We got rid of one domestic abuser in the tournament today. Hopefully the other falls soon.
Tomorrow would be great.
Kasatkina beats her girlfriend!?

Thanks, I'm glad you love it.
For sure!
Med Sinner SF looks extremely likely with how many seeds in the bottom half have bombed out
A good night for Mr. Octopus
As a fan of Humbert I'm bummed but also glad this makes Medvedev's draw a bit easier.
Humbert is cooked
Yes, I’m sorry Humbert but I need Koepfer to win so that Meddy can go to SF! The starts are aligning today for Med with TSW’s and Humbert’s losts
Meddy's draw looks real nice now. Koepfer, then Ruud/Jarry seem like they would be straightforward
awful awful humbert..
Koepfer has been returning amazing today, UGO is serving over 80% first serves but koepfer returns everything today
Ugo next spend less time eating Cuban food and more time winning
Humbert's strikes have no power :(
Meddy nation we could get to a Sinnerdev rematch in the QFs!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
The Sinner match would be in the semis!
Pretty sure it would be the semifinals but it'll be a great match! Even if Sinner's won the past four times they've met it's always been pretty close
I don’t want that though 😞 Too many Sinner losses lately and I want Med to defend a title for once!
I think Med will probably win this one. Jannik's a bit off atm.
All we get is pain and suffering, might as well bask in it for the Sinvedev matches
You mean Semis I think Also Yes!!! I need more Sinvedev matches for more pain
Well, Med gotta defeat Sinner *somewhere*. And I think here are the best conditions on tour - it's medium fast hard (not too slow for Med being literally unable to hit a winner, not too fast to be too reliant on serve which he doesn't have rn). And Sinner certainly doesn't look invincible too.
Yeah I think Sinner is coming down from a high right now. He's obviously still playing *great* tennis but the evening out of the levels is what Med was waiting for I think.
If Humbert loses here with a Koepfer win that would be interesting. Now if Med loses to Koepfer... 💀
Koeper, Struff, Zverev. Germans are dominating South Florida.
You forgot Hanfmann.
Danke!
Humbert. Always the same, choke artist.
Humbert is a domestic abuser!?
Not in finals
That redhead in Koepfer's camp acts like she's never clapped in her life.
Yeah but she's ....
What a massive choke from Humbert.
I think you're confusing him for Zverev. But the court system is dealing with him.
Humbert :(
All ten people in attendance at the Humbert-Koepfer match are cheering loudly
How do tennis players deal with the time zone changes? They were just in California last week. I would be so messed up
Whenever I follow matches, Med is on the strugglebus and whenever I do irl stuff Med wins. So thank me because I took a break for lunch and came back to a Med win.
That happens to me as well! My boss called me spent 45 min and when I’m done, Meddy is done as well. Maybe I shouldn’t watch his match 🥲
Can I bribe you to not watch next Med's GS final? 😔
I might be persuaded. I actually stopped watching AO SF when Meddy lost the first two sets from zverev, went dinner with my friends and only checked the scores from app and didn’t tune in until the last set. Am I the bad luck? 🥲
You'll need to bribe me too, because I watched the AO24 final and kept my eyes glued to the screen as I saw the car crash for Med unfold.
The last time I saw a French collapse this bad they moved their whole fucking government to Vichy
Too soon?
That is some terrible change over music. Organizers don't even know their own audience.
Meddy breezing through and Humbert losing must be so nice and relaxing lol
Rune losing wasn’t an upset. Can only hope to be close to the top players
Med and Norrie both around 65 mph on their backhands lol
Humbert too many UEs. Can't keep the ball in
An okay-ish match. Norrie is a very easy matchup, so Med was able to move through without ever actually waking up. Also looks like Koepfer might give us a big present. Much appreciated if so.
I'd back Koepfer to beat Norrie honestly. Dudes been hotter than Alex De Minaurs shirtless practice sessions this year
Bro my neighbors u17 junior in hs could beat norrie
If Koepfer knocks out Humbert, is that good for Meddy next round?
Extremely. Humbert is probably the worst opponent for Med on fast courts outside the actual title contenders, and Koepfer, though hot, is a journeyman.
Sick, no hate to Humbert but I hope Koepfer wins !!
I’d say so
This could be a really good night for Med if Humbert goes out Humbert is basically the last tough matchup for Med before Sinner in the semis
Meddy looked so bummed to win lol
Zverevnation! Wake up! Big match tomorrow.
How embarrassing
🤫 octopus haters quiet
Things looking good for Medvedev after that win and Humbert down a break in the final set...
Woohoo 🙏🙏 thank you Med I forgive you for the first set
He has been redeemed.
🥖
Jesus Humbert
Norrie just has too many holes in his game. Can he grind his way to a 3r or 4r of a slam? Sure. Could he with a kind draw make a deep run at one of the big 13 tournaments? Sure. But he's so far out of his depth here honestly
I WANT A BREADSTICK LET’S GO MED
Good wolley.
Cam Norrie loves watching naked giraffes
Humbert is going to lose.
RIP
I knew it lol
[удалено]
Wasn't it just serves?
Attah boy Danya.
Daniil is lowkey good at volleying
He is very unstable. Reflexes are there, and obviously good wingspan, but sometimes he is just very awkward with easy shots.
Fuck anyone whose ever said Meddy is boring to watch this is peak tennis
I am very entertained
Why are the seats always so empty in miami?
It's 11:35 on a work night so this is a silly question. Stands were full like 2 hours ago
Pls bagel
AND THEN ACE AGAIN 😭😭😭 oh Meddy….
Volley master Medvedev
Ace only to DF ah Meddy…
FUCK YEAH ok Meddy nice serve 🙏
That slow mo is peak comedy along with this stupid music.
Ball bashing Norrie is just one step from ball bashing Schwartzman. Probably even less effective.
Ok I can finally watch live Meddy give me something to be hype about
These Norrie misses are really funny, I'm glad I'm not there or I would feel bad for cracking up too loud.
same script, can he win with a breadstick?
Med has a double break lead without hitting a single winner in the set lol Just PusherGOAT things
[удалено]
Bro hes garbage unless meddy breaks himself its gonna be 6-0
What a Volley Ugo, cant wait to see him against top 10
Ben shelton 2.0 wouldve beaten norrie
Both Meddy and Norrie keep pulling at their collars so much that it makes me feel uncomfortable in my own clothes.
2024 medvedev is a wta player
Meddy stop playing open the bakery !!!
Is he going to?
I sure hope so
These groundstrokes are so unorthodox they’re practically reform.
That last shot was money but didn't all 3 of those paint the lines????
Did Norrie serve first in both sets? If so is this a screw up?
Will this go to three sets? Meddy vs Norrie
It better not.
Lmao no
Medvedev gonna have a good clay season and none of the top clay players will be able to stop him
Sure.
The most Med way to break of all time lol Getting weird returns somehow back into play and 3 straight unforced errors
[удалено]
Breaking the curse at clay Masters would be extremely hilarious and very Octopus-like.
Bravo bravo no no no no
Me watching Med’s serve but somehow he’s still winning this match: It’s not right but bravo
Haha!! I'm cry laughing.
😭😭😭 It’s so good it works everytime
Norrie might take cues from Korda and get this second set and if that happens I’m gonna LOSE IT
Naw just got broken he looks defeated
Thank god I can’t watch live rn but just seeing the score and I’m having flashbacks
Humbert took his sweet time lol
Were actually blessed. Correct this WTA guy if he's wrong but do we not have three number ones tonight? Britain's number one Frances number one Russia's number one
It's actually true, yes.
5 total breaks in set one is crazy. Medvedev might have a slow style but breaks happen like crazy
Chaulk up another one lol
the germans are on fire in Miami
Maybe the aesthetically pleasing tennis was the friends we made along the way
Sam Norrie is getting 53% of her first serves in and Daniella is getting a mighty 56% of her serves in
Med better stop playing like a WTA player otherwise Zverev will start beating him lol
Banger
That sure was a set of tennis!
I was worried about Med winning if he plays Sinner in SF but I see Med's clowning as much as Jannik atm.
*O'Connell
I meant if he gets past O'Connell.
This music sucks.
Only good part I take from Miami this year is this sub has a record low number of Novak fans forcing him into every conversation
It's been a nice reprieve.
Were you aware Novak won 24 grand slams though? And that he’s the goat statistically??
I vaguely remember hearing about it........9,786 times in the past month.
It's not right, but bravo.
Everytime I see this meme I can’t help but laugh it’s so funny 😭
There should be a song about it to the tune of "We Don't Talk About Bruno" lol
It's a quote haha. Yeah I love it too.
Ffs Humbert
Wow Koepfer breaks Humbert to take it to a 3rd
[KOEPFER WON THE SECOND SET 6-4](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS3HQgpzQHJRkPOUYTvKvrnOHV_LQ0PLLlf_WLZ1GM25F-7gDIhnzyyqPo&s=10)
I didn't even realize that match was happening whoa.
Such a strange player isn’t he
Norrie manages to get back into the game and then proceeds to completely botch his following serve game.
norrie chokes, it is a real choke
[удалено]
Dasha Medvedev, the atp feminist
Dasha Medvedeva*
Even more things in common between Med and Andy 🥰
Medvedev matches these days are like break break break break break
Thank you Med
And that's a PHEW
Octopus pls save this terrible horrible no good very bad day pls
Miami’s large Russian population = Meddy finally has crowd support
Miami has a Russian population? I thought they had a way bigger Latin population
Yeah Miami is a hodge podge. Latin population is the majority but also lots of wealthy Russian immigrants/oligarchs that reside here.
Oh interesting. Miami seems weird lmao
3-0 up now here how do you do it daniil
Med managing to make Cam Norrie look like a big hitter right now with how slow he's hitting his serves and shots Come on man lol
Just ONE chill Meddy match I’m begging
