    About 7-3. The final three points looked pretty good for Z. On to the
    Carreno match.

    Oh, oh. Carreno is a double break down in the fifth. He's busted.

    The way these old-timers are losing two sets to love leads, I think it's
    time to call the 2026 RG the "20 is the new 40" slam.

    Jodar tried to give his final service game away but didn't succeed. He's
    still in the jaws of victory.

    Am I impressed with Jodar? Don't know. He's good but how good? Carreno
    isn't exactly the yardstick for greatness. Is Jodar exciting? Hmmm.

    Maybe I'll know more next year.

    They're not playing enough.


    For example, if he aims for reduced schedule, fine, but I feel Djokovic sho= uld have skipped Indian Wells and Miami and not clay.

    But he didn't, he went to Indian Wells, why?and the later skipped Monte Car=
    lo and everything until Rome, where he lost in first match.

    At least play full clay swing, clay serves some purpose for FO, Indian Well=
    s doesn't.

    Had he done it even with mediocre success and not trying too hard he would = have been in better match fitness form and surely would have had more zipto=
    close out 2-0 lead vs Fonseca.




    --=20

    5-1 for Z in the third. Surely, this match can't turn around?

    No such luck for De Jong. A comprehensive rout. Z is looking like a
    champ. But ...

    In its own way, this is shaping to be an interesting slam.
