Fantastic race. What a moment for Gasly! Thrilled for him given he was demoted by Red Bull not so long ago.
And hopefully somebody new can win the French Open in October. Hail the next generation. Thanks Fed, Rafa, Djoko, Andy, Stan.Time for the game to move on!
Perhaps this incident saved him from being beaten in a normal way. It is all hypothetical now but I had a feeling at the start that someone new would triumph in NY. It is arguably the most Open of the Opens as Del Potro, Stan, Murray and Cilic have managed wins here during this period of dominace by Fed, Rafa and Djoko that eluded them elsewhere or in the case of Stan and Murray, saw only the briefest of interruption to the seamless dominance.
I would accept a charity donation, but wouldn’t want anything else other than an apology if I wasn’t hurt.
Djokovic has come out to defend the line judge against abuse and death threats. What is wrong with these people!
Good luck to the remaining participants in the Women's and Men's singles and doubles. Time for Thiem to deliver but the last 8 is full of talent so any of them could win without being "intimidated" by Nadal, Federer or Djokovic, Facing these 3 must be akin to facing Anderson and Broad on a seaming wicket.
She was hit in the throat which can be fatal if the vagus is stimulated. There is also the element of shock which can stun. Imagine if you were in a pub and someone threw a glass at you and knocked you over....bet you’d take that well.
