Always the same, making a Hollywood shot and missing an easy forehand afterwards.

- Start date
Looks like Medvedev will do this. It's taken him two hours, but now 2-0 up.
Dimitrov has a chance if he stops making stupid mistakes. Longer this match goes on it should favour him.
Yeah Medvedev should go all out to do this in straights - I'd worry about his fitness the longer it goes and each game is pretty gruelling so far
Going to plan for him now!
Dimitrovs had the right tactics but shit execution.
Medvedev looks class
Think the final will be similar to Toronto, if Nadal makes it.
Dimitrov did well giving Medvedev the low ball but couldn’t finish the final ball.

This and
This
I mean i have predicted a win for Medvedev but i was 100% sure that Dimitrov would win at least one set.
So now Berrettini vs Nadal....the weather is currently terrible here in NYC so hopefully they are playing a few hours that all spectators are coming safe home.
Ffs, first set and my nerves are already shot. This Berrettini dude is playing pretty good. Some mad drop shots.
What a rally! Get in Rafa!
Now break him!
Now break him!
Yessssss!!!
Nadal couldn’t get a first serve in that tie break. Berrettini threw that away.
feck feck feck if Berrettini would have won the 1st after 70 minutes then the match would go in the right direction......but that will be now tough for Berrettini's head.
Nadal really really got away with that tie break. He really should have won that set long before that though.
0/8 now on break points Rafa. However well the Italian is serving, Nadal's just not doing anything on these break points.
Finally takes his TENTH break point. Serving for 5-3.
Rafa 6-4 in the second. Still not playing well but Atleast he's 2 sets up.
Medvedev won't be easy for Rafa
I reckon now the 3rd set and the match will be over in 30 minutes.
Looks like the italian has given up.
This is wrapped up now.
Medvedev will be a tough one.

What a year for Nadal if he wins the final.
It didn't feel like the greatest performance from Nadal, however he had plenty of opportunities on the Berrettini first serve.
He served well today too, didn't face any break points and only went to deuce once on his service.

It will be. But if someone asked Nadal before the tournament if he had a choice between Djokovic, Federer and Medvedev in the final he would have easily said Medvedev.
I would have never thought that both semi-finals would be over after three sets.
Hopefully Medvedev can win it all. Seems a character!!!
It'll go down as one of his best if he wins the USO. Two Masters titles, AO final, RG, Wimbledon SF and an USO title would be an unbelievable season.
He's honestly just played maybe 2 good sets since R3. He wasn't great vs Chung, he had 1.5 amazing sets vs Cilic, poor vs Diego and one brilliant set today. He's just gotten through without ever reaching his best over 3 sets. Will have to really step it up vs Medvedev.
As for Berretini, you could see why he's the 74th best returner on court. He was woeful on returns. Not creating a single BP just isn't good enough.
Oh yes. Pretty much anyone apart from Federer or Djokovic is a great opponent for Rafa. He's a favorite and should win but Medvedev has been playing some very very good stuff.
Dimitrov really should have won one set and even Berretini had those 2 SP's to take the first. The scorelines are a bit deceptive.
What a wasteful tie-break from Berrettini, very frustrating, like I was watching Federer.
When Medvedev wins, I hope he'll thank both Putin and Trump, for another nice troll of the crowd.

Berrettini definitely should have won that tiebreaker, but equally Nadal should have wrapped that set up beforehand. He had, what 6 break points?
Berretini just hit way too many big first serves down BP. Though Rafa should have atleast broken on 1 of the 6 chances.
Murray and Mattek-Sands have defended the mixed doubles 
Murray has now 7 Grand Slam doubles titles.
Mattek-Sands has now 9 Grand Slam doubles titles.....amazing story after her terrible knee injury at Wimbledon 2017.

Surely Serena must win this one and finally tie Court.
Come on Andreescu.
This please.
Surely Serena won't choke again. Andreescu is very fired up. Not gonna be easy. First already looks like a lost cause.
The quality of the match and atmosphere at the Arthur Ashe Stadium feels like male tennis
I think it is safe to say that the womens game is in safe hands with so many talented youngsters out there, compared to the mens.
Is this not on tv? All I can find it on is German Eurosport.
