Even worse! how is he still only 36, it seems like he's been around bloody forever

He's still never won the calendar slam, and it's a golden year with the olympics. He can't win all 5...can he...

Won’t be able to watch either of the men‘s semifinals. I am of course rooting for Daniil and Jannik. A Novaxx-Zverev final scenario is a nightmare.

 

[Yel]

It's bit past midnight here and I really should go to sleep, but can't with this .

Finish him sinner!

 

[londongirl2001]

I‘m about to go to work, but the live score is killing me Novaxx absolutely has it in him to turn this around, but I really hope Jannik can close this in four.

I hate waking early up but husband woke me at 7:15 after the third set and it’s been so worth it!

 

[Yel]

Praise beans for that! Good morning to everyone in Europe waking up to this!

 

[veronica71]

Wow!!! My little one’s been sick in the night but that’s cheered me up!!!

What happened in those first two sets???

 

[Pivot]

Yessss Jannik!!! So happy!

 

[veronica71]

Oh he’s lovely isn’t he - never heard him talk before. He’s got some Sebastian Vettel about him

 

[coconochanel]

Haha come on Sinner, Well done!

 

[londongirl2001]

Omg YES Jannik!!!! I really need to watch those highlights later amazing
Now Daniil, you have one job *prayer circle*

 

[Suzesnooze]

Brilliant and his third win over Djokovic in 9 weeks, so the future looks promising!

Gutted to have missed that match, have been asleep for I think every Sinner match but have been able to watch about 4 Zverev matches in a row

Sinners been looking unplayable recently, can see him being world number 1 at some point this year

 

[ButtonDownTheHutches]

Oooooooh, this has made my day!!!!

Hope Medvedev can pull it out of the bag

My husband watched it in bed beside me with the ipad muted. If I stirred I'd ask for a score update.

Nominating Jannik as patron Saint of this thread.

 

[SaLou]

This is good news to wake up to!

 

[Heidi88]

I woke up at in the middle of the night and checked the score. Jannik had taken the first set! I was so happy to wake up and see he had won. Hoping Medvedev beats Zverev.

Medvedev forehand is like a slightly less extreme Gulbis style. Looks really goofy but I enjoy it.

Back on serve in DM vs AZ.

Alcaraz has always said that he sees Jannik as his strongest opponent in his age group, he knew all along!

But seriously, what a run during this AO for him, losing just one set, and it took the world number 1 to do that.

I feel you jinxed this, and I love it
