He wins on Sunday and he can officially be the heir apparent to the Big Three. Watching what Alcaraz can do at the age of 19 on that court is nothing short of amazing. I have never seen a player cover as much ground as he does and do it so effortlessly. It’s kinda cool to watch an athlete transform from phenom into superstar like this.
Ruud can get it though too. Watching him today was pretty fun. Khachanov was completely overmatched and Ruud covers ground pretty fast as well and has a really strong backhand. I hope Sunday is another 5 setter. This US OPEN has been incredible for the sport as a whole.

Tiafoe is in trouble.
His first serve tonight, to be kind, has been subpar. His forehand is also not real good. Those are two things you need to have working to beat this guy.

I stayed out there all day, but I have to be up at 6am so I left in the 2nd set that I was watching on the big screen. If Alcaraz holds on I think I will at least go back on Sunday for the viewing party. The battle to be #1 with Ruud and Alcaraz will be ridiculously entertaining if it happens.

This will be a cool movie. I’ll be there opening night for this. I really enjoyed Knives Out and suspect I’ll like all the movies to come in this franchise. Good on Daniel Craig for doing more movies as Benoit Blanc!
-
That was a really cool post-match interview by Ruud. He really put in perspective that he has battles with his nerves out there just like everyone else and that while he hopes to win he can handle things not going his way. What a great attitude at such a young age.
-
Khachanov gutted that set out. Glad this match is going to at least a 4th set. The crowd has been great this afternoon.
-
Ruud looked really good in the 2nd set. His energy and court coverage are much better than Khachanov. He might get this done quickly if he gets off to a fast start again in the 3rd.
-
Well set point sure made up for the rest of the first set! That was a pretty awesome rally.
-
This first set has been really disjointed with no flow to it. It’s been like watching a couple of drunks fling beer mugs at each other. Here’s hoping the quality of play improves as this goes forward.

Texas has now literally targeted every aspect of the care I provide through my clinic lmao
It's almost like the state is telling this dyke to gtfo
When the government of a state tells you exactly who they are and exactly how difficult they are willing to make your life believe them. I hope you are able to relocate to a state where who you are and what you do for a living are both fully respected.

I have been four times:
2010- first week day grounds pass
2013- first week Arthur Ashe night ticket
2016- second week Arthur Ashe night ticket (Quarterfinal: Del Potro v Wawrinka)
2022- opening night Arthur Ashe (Serena then Nick Kyrgios)
That’s some cool memories right there that you have made. I definitely need to be back next year. I would love to go again this time, but those prices are getting up there.

Man this was such an awesome experience. I definitely need to come back and go to more matches. The energy was really cool throughout and overall it is something I think every sports fan should experience.

Cilic serving to stay alive down 5-2. Let’s see if he can summon up something good to extend this match a little longer.
-
I don’t know how Alcaraz is still bouncing around like this. Man to be young and running on adrenaline at 2am…lol.
-
Well I just went up and right before the store closed I got the bag and a water bottle for my brother. I didn’t like the hats and shirts. I should have picked out a hat for my brother when I was downstairs where they had some really good ones. He’ll like the water bottle.

What swag did you buy?
I got a hat ($34), that burlap beach/grocery bag ($20), and the rubber ducky with the red hat ($10) for my friend’s infant.*
*They live in Spain 🇪🇸, but visited NYC in late June.
Oh that’s cool man! I want to get my brother something since he still plays competitively in tournaments in Texas, but I think all the merchandise places will be closed once this ends. I just couldn’t get up to go look once both guys got dialed in.

The distraction is coming from people randomly shouting Carlos. Cilic has been a pro about it. If this was Sabalenka she would probably have murdered a few fans by now.
-
Nearing 2am and these two are really going at it with the 5th set coming up. So many beautiful winners hit by each guy tonight. This has been well worth the money to be here in-person.

Cilic did an underhand serve. It did not go well and he lost the 3rd set shortly afterwards. 95 percent of the people left are here for Alcaraz. Watching him feed off the crowd with his youthful flair is pretty cool.

Sinner held on, barely.
I think he beats Alcaraz if he wins this match.
Sinner seems to be a bit of a problem for Alcaraz. First things first though because Cilic played a brilliant 2nd set.

This match is getting really good in the 3rd. Both guys showing a lot of emotion.

This is a pretty cool moment for the sport. Both of these guys are going to be really good for a long time. Alcaraz is just on another level amongst his peers right now. I hope the sport markets him and some of the other young men and women to help grow tennis not just here, around the world.
