Lots of hate for Berdych but all tennis players lose from time to time. It's not like Pospisil is a terrible player or anything.

Right now Berdych is ranked 5 and this year has lost to Nadal, Federer, and Wawrinka all ranked above him and hasnt played Novak. Then the players ranked under him are Ferrer, Dimi, Nish, Isner, Gulbis, Tsonga, Agut, Dolg, and Cilic who he has beaten this year. All the other players in the top 20, he hasnt played this year (Del Potro, Raonic, Murray, Gasquet, Fog, Robredo).

So going of that, he deserves to be the 5th ranked player and the hate is not actually justified by his results as he has beaten everyone under him in the top 20.

how many BAD losses has berdick had this year? still impressed he beat the players ranked below him

To be honest, he's just run into players playing insane and not really bad losses. His win % this year has been the best of his career.

His last loss was to Cilic at Wimbledon who was playing insane and pushed Novak to 5 sets and prior to that Lopez who too was playing insane. Then other losses was to Gulbis in Paris who bet Federer and pushed Novak. Dimi in Rome who made the semis before losing to Nadal. Nadal in Madrid. Berlocq in a final when Berlocq was playing insane. Garcia-Lopez in Monte-Carlo who almost bet Novak. Nadal in a walk over semi. Agut at Indian Wells which was his true only bad loss although Agut is ranked 16 so not actually bad. Fed in a final. Waw at Aus Open. Nish in a final.

So looking at that. All his losses have been in finals mostly with a few semifinals. Only true bad loss was first round to Agut who is ranked 16.

Wow Venus just missed a wide open shot for the set, now chokes the 2 break points. Im sick

[FlipsideRM]

Breaks her for the set! Lets go

[FlipsideRM]

Venus breaks at love, now serving for the match! What a point to break there


Now venus about to give the break right back lol

[FlipsideRM]

Oh my Venus gets broken serving for match, shit like this always happens to me. This might be going to a 3rd

[FlipsideRM]

Venus blows double break point for the match. If she ends up losing this match it'll be one of the worst beats I've ever taken

[Simon Gruber]

if Venus loses this match and doesn't retire, I might have to step in...

[FlipsideRM]

Venus is tired as hell, if this goes to a 3rd I think even Azarenka with a beat up leg can take her

[FlipsideRM]

Venus up 3-0 and now serving, let's see how she blows this

[Simon Gruber]

Lets start August off right!

8/1:

Dominic Thiem -152 vs Granollers

Riding the young gun in his home country with fan support until the wheels fall off. Similar to Vesely, he just beat Granollers a month ago in a close 3 setter. This time around he's the home town kid, and with all the delays I just don't think Granollers will have the motivation that Thiem does to move on.

Granollers won last year - 250 points is a lot of someone like him. Vesely was just disgusting today. I'm taking Granollers small. GL

I love Thiem here. He made the quarter finals last year and he's a far superior player now in my eyes. Granollers was actually in decent form last year when winning Kitzbuhel, not so quite the same this time around. The over might be a decent look as well, but going to stick with Thiem moneyline for now

[Simon Gruber]

thinking about hammering Gasquet as soon as the overnight lines get posted. He's breezed through the first 2 rounds and Nishikori looks beatable.

[professionalAD]

on thiem too bro, lets rolllllllll

Sushi kid is not in top form yet, neither is Gascan but I agree, Gascan will win
