[Music] cool right okay guys listen I I do apologize for that uh it doesn't look the best it obviously should fit the screen a little bit better but you can see the score you can hear me I hope and um let's just get on with the match cuz that's what you're here for that's what 15 of you are here for wow it's a good little turnout let let's get on with it so I will just start uh calling the score I'll get into to the the two players a little bit when we have our first change our next change over I should say we're now serving ex serving 430 with Bergs holding serve in the very first game so this is a second round match win the Salem open very serving 43 first serve going down the middle to B 4and down the middle Cross Court the 4and burs up the middle uh very backand backhand cross from burgs opening up the four inside out from burs backand down the middle burgs cross with the forand forand crosscourt from Ed backhand cross burs and puts for into the N next game to very one all so quite a quite a high profile match for winon Salem here we've got ET the ATP World number 34 against Bergs the ATP number 85 however Bergs in my humble opinion iion really really good up and cominging player who I think is underachieved in his career so far he's 25 but he's really got the potential to be going far above his ranking that he has right now it's one allberg serving with a big serve 6'2 goes down the middle with an ace straight away Boom showing what he can do with that serve question marks sometimes about the accur accurac accuracy of his serve but I'm not sure you can question the the pace that he can generate that that the all parts of this game 15 love going down the middle T but it's out second [Music] serve forand inside out from Bergs back hand down the middle burgs forand cross score eter and that is into the net from eter burgs 30 love up per serving 30 left now down the middle oh and it's just out second serve and it's into the that double fall 35 going to the T turn down the middle and burs his big forehand to the left goes out wild rush and that's what you what you can unfortunately expect with burgs as much as he has Brilliance as much as he has a lot of talent the ability to hit really big shots to command the point he can also be Rush with those shots and uh he prone to errors so it's 30 all Burg serving down the middle ER getting it back Bergs with a big forehand Up Down the Line ET cross backand Bergs hitting that forehand inside in Berg with a forand Inside Out nowra defending with his backhand Bergs with the forand cross core rra going down the line with the forand Bergs now defending with the backhand ex very slic backand Burg's forand inside in and that's brilliantly done just giving himself very just giving Bergs that extra little bit of time and um and that's what he needed put it down the line and uh very unable to get that one back 4030 G yosip hello hello 4030 for Bergs hits the net second serve goes down the T with the 400 rur to the net and it's game to burgs 2-1 so what we've got here guys we've got ET a very accomplished tall level player now um he's made great strides in the last couple of years established himself self in the top 50 and at 250 level he's a dangerous player that's going to be hoping to challenge the titles um and then you've got the likes of zizu bgs broke onto the scene with his run beating kachanov in Anor in 2020 and since then he's had a couple of standout wins he absolutely has the ability to play to beat players um with a much better ranking than him however it is just that consistency from Bergs um I would think surface wise etra is certainly going to be wanting that sort of high bounc in clayt fast clay court because he's aggressive um and he could deal with that high bounce with being six of five and obviously having grown up on Clay Bergs can deal with the high bounce having a very spinny forehand and it being quite a long takeback um of a forehand he needs a bit of time to set it up in the similar way that someone like Jack Draper might need it however um he can deal with low balls I feel a lot better than he's got a flat back hand and he's got a booming serve which lends itself to faster services and the fact that Bergs has won a Challenger in ille on grass just tells me that while I think Bergs is very comfortable on clay and Clay might be his best surface I think in this context he's quite happy playing Cher on an outdoor hard court um I I think he probably slightly more suited to Bergs than it is to etra having said that etra is absolutely not just a clay CT player he's had good results on hardc courts as well but I slightly give the edge to Bergs in terms of the surface however eder's got a lot more tall level experience and is much higher ranked so that makes for quite an interesting match I think very serving now one two he's missed the Ball Toss there goes out wide burs down the middle eter going inside out Bergs slice back and into the net Ed coming into volley he doesn't need to 15 love well it's good to be here a little bit earlier guys yesterday I was doing the M Mei match and everything all the matches just took a lot longer yesterday I was starting this an hour and a half later so uh yeah it's nice to nice to be doing a little bit earlier be getting a slightly earlier bedtime which be nice um but yeah it's 15 Love T very now goes out wide big booming serve and Bergs unable to control it that has been a weakness I think for erer for his height he's got quite a poor serve still absolutely a weapon but you would hope it would be if you're six foot five and a professional tennis player but that that was a really fast serve showing it off well there 30 love now forer now why bugs returns it down the okay it's out extra very serve that is goes down the middle bgs returning out wi with the forand running for to get the forehand but sprays it long good wide deep ball from Bergs there hello y tip yes indeed well we can talk a little bit about the cner situation in just a moment well during the next break of course the focus is of course on the ET Bergs match here 3015 goes down the T burs returning it to the back end and tree coming to the net playing the backand ground stroke down the line really accomplished there nice and safe and we get to 415 this is an encounter I think that has the is not they both got good serves not they're not serve bots so there's definitely chances to break but if they're both serving well it's going to be largely dictated by serve both of them very competent 45 now down the middle burs okay it's just out and now it's 4015 second serbs putting into the net to all now so where are we now to b s down the middle gets it back high up into the court forand cross from burgs forand cross from burs again forand Cross Court from AER and it's out 15 love to burgs I think for Bergs and the the key thing here is it's not it's not quite as black as white here as all first serve amazing second serve bad can attack it there's a little bit more Nuance to when it comes to the server zizu bgs and we'll get into that just after this point 15 love bad Ball Toss there trying again I'm not sure if there's a bit of wind there at the moment misses second serve down the middle great second serve backhand cross caught from Bergs but is it just out was is shot out no it was actually's shot that was out 30y love first Ser is out down the middle backhand return from backhand cross from backhand crosscore from burgs backand crosscore from a backand crosscore from burgs forand inside out from and burgs is back and goes into the net 315 what I mean by that is Bergs has got quite a fast second serve he puts a lot of spin on it so it's no by no means a second first serve so to speak um but it's pretty fast more than average but it's not accurate so if you can block it back you've got a chance to get a good return in goes out wide with the first serve forehand drop shot there Tre comes comes forward but just oh and bur he was going out but Bergs volleys Away really nicely yeah as I was saying guys so if you're the kind of returner that needs a bit of time and benefits from that extra time then you're going to struggle with the burg second serve if you're the kind of returner that likes to take the ball early and play quick shots you can probably handle burgs is quite well if you read it correctly anyway 415 Berg serving out wide eter with the forehand that goes long and we are at 32 yeah so actually you know what I'll just take this chance now guys bear with me I'm going to go for a short break we'll be back very soon for e [Music] right we are back well I am back you've already been there presumably um well unfortunately I'm probably going to talk a little bit about the teis between these two however I think my uh my break has meant we haven't got a lot of time I'll mention bits and pieces when I can but if not we'll have plenty of changeovers where I can talk more H very serving two three goes out wide Bergs going down the middle with the forehand very forehand crosscourt bgs forehand crosscourt Deep Boy Bergs going inside out now Ed very cross backand BS cross Inside Out forehand burgs backhand down the line and it goes into the net yeah Yip so burgs like I said given a little bit of background to him but primarily a challenger Tour player but in the last few months especially has uh dipped his what's the expression like he's put his head above the water going into the tour level he's ranked 85 so kind of a tour player a low rank tour level player 15 Love Now h s down the middle really good first serve or is it no it's out my bad so we're looking at a second serve here for hraber in theet double fault yeah Bergs obviously has stepped up being in the top 100 of course he doesn't have to go through qualies anymore as he did for many years and uh I'm sure he'll be very grateful playing in Winston salum rather than the US Open qualifying that's for sure but yet to really establish himself as a a proper tall level player he's definitely prone to coming out of the top 100 at some point 50 N goes out wide a very really good serve Ace fantastic yeah Cincinnati Bergs lost in qualifying lost in the first round of Hamburg lost in the first round of Wimbledon to Arthur kzo really close match there didn't make it to the main draw of Queens so just from those results there you can kind of start to see that um he's kind of getting to the tour level but not as much as he would like I'm sure so it's 3015 now for retraer andur with the big 4and after the surf zberg defending with the back hand slid that D going down the line he misses and it's dir all yeah so with burgs he got to the third round of the French Open beating tabilo in the first round and marer losing to demitro in four having qualified so that's a really good effort um it's probably one of his standout results this year and it's definitely a respectable result but certainly there's a lot more to come from zizu bgs I feel like I said bit of underperforming I think 30 all now goes down the middle burs with the back hand into the net he's annoyed with that one was on his racket he just needed to block it back and couldn't quite manage it so it's 4030 now to ET and um whilst et's first serve is good Bergs will be hoping to make some inroads on it because he tends to have quite a high first percentage so that makes obviously it a lot more pressurized and difficult if you're not getting to see as many second serves exra very serving now down the middle but misses second serve B taking a big four off the second serve oh that is as perfect example as you could ever hope to see of what sort of pace zizu bgs can can generate with that forehand when he has that time to wind up to really set it up to load it up and when he unleashes it can be as good as that and that is just huge a giant enormous return inside in and now it is juice out wide Bergs with the forehand goes deep with the forehand Inside Out Bergs with the backhand Moon board to the middle and into the net there from Ed very so burgs has a break point out first of the match into the net second serve and go the Z backand he tries to run around the backand hit a big forehand return but that was ambitious you'd have to have incredibly quick feet to get yourself properly into position for a shot like that and somewhat unsurprisingly he doesn't manage it so we're back to [Music] juice why serve crosscourt from zeu bgs backhand crosscourt from zeu bgs inside out fromer forehand from zeu burgs forand from forand from burgs scrambling forand coming to the net from oh no doesn't come to the net burgs forand going to his backand forehand going to the backand again from Bergs and just you feel there while Berg's strength might be in his forand more than his volleys you just feel at that point is a good good example of where he's sort of going to be U he's going to make or break in this match and that is how he comes forward how often um because I think he really did have a chance to come forward there and finish off the point and he chose be a little bit sensitive to stay back and it cost him in the end that era eventually coming his Advantage now R serving down the middle burgs with a 4 return down the middle B and then burgs back hand crosscourt back hand crosscourt Bergs going down the line but he misses just wide three yeah so kic beating bz what was the score there wow 63 64 I mean listen it's tough because I mean form wise that's terrible from buyers amazing from corich um but we know that coric is a top there's a top top player in there and one that can do really well on us hard court so not a complete surprise anyway Berg serving three goes out wide and then coming down the middle burgs with a big forand cross core looping xay down the line with the forand slice from burgs X slicing into the net and 15 love a good return there from uh from met neutralized bgs's fairly fairly decent serve quite well and now it's 30 love down down the middle bags and then bags with the cross core very put into the net fory love now it's good service game from Bergs get getting through these first three points fairly quickly he'll want to be on top take control get the rallies shorter as I would imagine's got the bigger lungs compared to the two of them 40 love down the middle T really good return from metere volley from Bergs and uh missed the backand crosscourt interesting really good serve actually an amazing return for met and put Bergs in a bit of trouble um but unable to capitalize on the Final Shots weird that final shot was uh considerably easier than the return he hit you would have thought and yeah with how it is is the way it is and um yeah 43 now top five uh hello yeah Yos I mean car being a top five player I don't agree um his serve is decent his backhand is really underrated and fantastic actually like I I I don't know what it is like every time I watch him play and I see that it's going to his backand I just have this confidence in the same way I do with nisha's backhand dare I say PE maybe not these days he's really on the way out but back in the day pe's backhand was I just had that confidence watching it and I have the same with corage I think he's is really really good but his mentality not good like he's his his mental strength not good volle's not sure he's got good movement good good Pace but yeah I think realistically coret should be is he should be in you know between 20 and 30 ranked I think I think he's got the potential to be top 20 but not much more than that I don't see him ever getting higher than 15 yeah absolutely like that is a bit of a surprise to me yeah he's he just needs to get in that Rhythm and he's not in it at the moment and there's a lot of good players around to be honest like the competition these days is is pretty tough and I don't know how much corage has got in the tank to really get back up to that high high level he's not that old he's definitely got time but um anyway sorry let's get back to it shall I think I've missed the first point no down the middle backhand cross cour from man very BS putting the back end into the next 15 love into the net second serve into the middle burs hitting the backand cross score edra very Inside Out forehand backhand cross score from burs and it's long bit of a unforced error there and it's the sort of shot that it's not the end of the world you know it happens but if you want to break someone youve got to be making shots like that you know if you're missing you want to at least be missing because you've made a good shot selection and you just quite haven't executed it 30 love down the middle and it's out it's a double fault there from at very out second [Music] Ser go down to the really good oh my goodness fantastic second serve what second serve goodness me that count us out the double vult for sure really well done there it's 415 down the middle boom but is out so a second serve the middle BS backand crosscourt slice from met very Bergs with a big forand inside out but it just misses and it's game for all so sure so burs to Ser now four all goes down the middle big four hand down the middle then forehand inside out from exra backhand cross score exra down the line with the forehand beforeand crosscourt from burgs saes out let's see so 36 minutes 8 games 18 minutes four games 9 minutes two games it's been fairly relatively quick match so far burgs now love 15 serving goes down the middle with a forand return back on Cross Court from B s slice from forehand inside out from and then back and Cross Court slice down the middle Bergs with a forehand down the line backand BS comes in and is that a great pass what a pass that is backand from eter really solid there there's something about 's game that and actually I I definitely fell into the Trap of under overlooking him and under raing him but I think what's so effective maybe not quite that flashy but what's effective about his game is he plays powerfully but with a lot of margin for eror Berg serving now at love 30 out wide and it's out second serve goes out wide with thr forehand backhand from from Bergs and then burgs voling finishing it off at the net and it goes out yeah 1530 so with hitting with a lot of he what's interesting is when I when you hear people say oh he hits with a lot of spin that either makes you think of someone like Nadal or it makes you think of a pusher like caras Baya for example a lot of spin but not a lot of pace 's got this nice little happy medium where he gets a lot of spin but he still has that pace about it there's penetration to the spin BS serve down the middle burgs forehand Cross Court into the net and the racket goes and you can understand it um that's one of his biggest strengths and it's just let him down and and as a result he's looking down the barrel of two break points now back serving first serve into the net at wide Bergs with a backhand crosscourt very slic backand crosscourt burgs backand crosscourt Ed very backand crosscourt burgs inside out inside in forehand wow that is just gorgeous to watch moving around the backhand hit his preferred forehand and really whipping around the ball twisting of the waist to power that ball into the corner it's a it's a risky shot it's an ambitious shot but that's the game of zizu bgs and it absolutely comes off this time 3040 celebrate point to face goes out and that's out oh but is in no big forand Inside Out etra scrambling back hand slice and then rra bring it back in with the backand cross SC back slic backand from Metra Bergs going inside out slic backand from met Bergs going inside out again was just out was it from burs I think no it was out from I didn't quite see that well no matter it is Juiced now B serving out wide backhand crosscourt from burgs backand slice crosscourt from backand Cross Court from burgs with the forehand inside out in with the forehand inside out again backhand cross from Bergs into the net both players really favoring their forehand ET very though really using his slice to good effect here um and it must be a little bit frustrating for Bergs because what he's got iner seemingly at the moment is a guy that's very solid that's moving well defending well but also the ability to punish him with aggression when he needs to his break point third one now from R out wide serve from Bergs and then Bergs with the forand crosscourt Bergs with the forand opening up inside out slic backand Bergs with the forehand down the middle ET with the forehand down the middle Bergs forehand to the BET backhand Bergs with a slice ET now coming forward with the forehand and that backhand is out from Bergs and he sends the ball out of the stadium it's a break for chairy and he will serve for it bit of complaining from burs to his team it must be frustrating you know as much as I stand by what I said you know aesthetically I'm personally a much bigger fan of Bergs I think his serve very aesthetic and very powerful his forehand as he proved in this game you know when it's on it's just fantastic it's like I think it's got to be it's got I think it's got potential be one of the best aggressive forand out there when it's on I think it's that good particularly um on slower surfaces where people might struggle to create pace and I think I think burgs can create lots of pace even without a lot of momentum on the ball however what we're seeing is you know obviously the Catch 22 is you got to play aggressively to get past AER because he's moving well and he's got good defensive capabilities but you know Bergs is an error prone player he's got to manage that and try and keep the ball in but obviously you keep the ball in the rally goes on longer the longer the rally goes on the more you favor at TR it's that classic Catch 22 and it's why so many attacking players lose to more defensively minded players and actually that's even a little bit unfair to because he's more than that that's actually what makes him such a good Prospect um rra to me is the archetypal example of a player that will almost always beats those ranked below him because he's just good he's a very good allrounder with I don't see many weaknesses to his game perhaps not his net his net play perhaps isn't the best but aside from that not many weaknesses I do see him struggling in general with top players you know who can just bully him around or defend better you know against his forehand and whatnot but you know against a guy like Burg I think is definitely the clear favorite serving now going into the B body BS with the forand forand to the Bergs backand forand to the Bergs backand from met backand crosscourt backand crosscourt forand down the line from Bergs and again he's trying he's giving that aggression he's giving it all he can but it's just not quite coming off for him enough at the moment that is the problem now for Bergs does Bergs have the ability to beat ET absolutely but only if he's on a really good day like a really good day which obviously could happen but at the moment it's not 1550 love it's out so second serve going out wide Berg's backhand deep ET with the forehand back Berg's backhand crosscourt ET with backand crosscourt BS going down the line and it's just it's is just soaking up this any sort of pace that Bergs is uh producing right now unless it's a change of direction or it's extremely accurate just general fast shots that are not well placed could definitely hurt some players on the tour but not atra at the moment he's soaking it up really well absorbing that power and he's serving now 30 love into the net second serve Bergs has got to try something else or just up the level because it's not working at the moment it's RAC serving down the middle forehand to the middle Bergs hitting inside out and there you go big big forehand really well done from burgs there that shows it absolutely he can can do it but can he do it enough the answer at the moment is no and um yeah he's got to show those flashes are Brilliance make them not he's got to make sure they're not just flashes he's got to make it more consistent and he's got to he's got to annoy erro with how good he's playing and he's not quite doing that yet and into the net another second so Tre won't be too happy about this Bergs surely wanting to step around his back hand here and hit his for let's see backhand crosscore with the backand down the middle burgs backand and then a backand cross cour from burgs Ed backand and then burs with a for hand to the back edge with the four and then the slic back hand from burgs with the forehand to Bergs backand crosscore crosscourt from forehand down the line from Bergs hits the racket into the floor as he misses again couple of times there he's tried to get it down the line either with the forehand down down the line inside in or with the back hand down the line and he's just missing it wide notice now obviously you're going to make mistakes sometimes when you go for it but that's quite a few times in a row now he's missed it in the same spot and that's maybe something to think about for his technique something to think about at the end of this set which could well be for S down the middle it's Al and that's that's the first set from at really good let's go to gosp with in Yip which means Yip in Serbian or Croatian uh I've been watching T since 80s takes a lot yeah absolutely I mean how many players do we know that are wildly talented Murray I mean Murray is a champion to an extent for sure but you know how many slams everyone knows everyone says it how many slams would he have won if it was if he was born 10 years earlier you know um although as Nadal says if if if doesn't exist I love that quote but yeah it's um does take hell of a lot you're tuned in sorry guys it's earlier than yesterday but still quite late for me have you guys doing hope you're all good doing what you're doing in your own lives um yes nice to be here with you got any questions hit me up go for it um yeah it's been a really it's been a fun set so far um it's a shame not to see Bergs quite showing his potential um ET very just been really really solid really efficient and uh really professional it's called to be said um Bergs with flashes of Brilliance with the flare but not enough and um and let's see how long did that set take 46 minutes yeah so sort of it's been longer 64s but wasn't a pushover set and like Burg is not a pushover in that set by any means aside from that last game he look pretty solid on serve and um certainly he's still got the ability to win this match burgs absolutely he's just got to make some changes I think otherwise I think it will be a straight set win for et so BS now I think preparing to serve bur serving at LEL goes down the middle at Dre uh that's just out from Burg so we'll have a second serve again interesting to see what B B starts with a second serve here returning it really well in the first set return with the back hand down the middle B forand down the middle forand down the middle burgs Inside Out Back forehand back hand the line for down the line burgs back hand down the line and now Bergs hitting a back for crosscourt Shan they almost seemed a little bit rushed but but he did have a little bit I think he had enough time there to do what he wanted to do just didn't quite come off for for zizu bgs there and it's La 15 second serve down the middle Bergs forehand oh that was a good decent return down the middle from atra very B Bergs nesting the four hand and there's just something a little bit off about his rhythm right now he's missing four hands where you got to ask yourself is he even trying to hit them that hard like not sure but they're still missing which is a worrying sign for Bergs first goes down the middle B turns it down the middle burgs attacking with the forand Bergs attacking forehand crosscourt TR forand crosscourt Bergs forand down the line it's in the net again that's three four hands in the net in a row are we witnessing something of an implosion here from burgs quite possibly it must be frustrating I can just see it so clearly you know Bergs is hitting he's not hitting you know he's not hitting Wonder four hands that are so incredibly fast but he's hitting strong for hands and ET is just absorbing them so easily he's just putting it straight back and it's really quite impressive to see not particularly attractive or spacular but very impressive B serving love 40 out wide misses second serve now and you worry that is uh going to return this with ease and possibly put pressure on burgs here returning crosscourt burgs coming into the net tries to half Vol and it goes that's four shots four unforced erors in a row where Bergs puts into the net and he slams his racket into the net clearly frustrated um no surprise really didn't have to hit a winner in that in that service game hello Mr Max how are we doing welcome welcome um well I hope you enjoy the rest of the match I'm not sure how much longer it's going to it's going to be though if it carries on the way it is I mean so tight and evenly contested and you know hard to pick between them but in the last two games my goodness it's just gone it's just gone uh et's way completely hello peaches how we doing I know saying hi to matx but I'm also saying hi to you cool so rra getting ready to serve now one love first goes wide turn that's just out go down the middle burs hits it forand down the line for back Cross Court burs backand cross cour Ed forand out inside out burs back cross cour Ed backand crosscourt burgs forand Inside Out Ed back hand down the line four hand down the line four cross from four hand cross from burgs four hand cross from metere four hand the line from burgs back and cross court from and I think it's just missed so BL 15 Cy burgs interesting different kind of point there extended and actually this time at TR trying to force the issue and hit the winner and didn't quite work out for it so 15 goes down the middle great shot Ace from no it's all good peaches don't you worry it's nice to have you here um as well as everybody else who is present with me enjoy my top of the range commentary of course um yes 15 or now another Ace would be very nice for that's for sure it down oh it's just out so double F he has suffered what is this his fourth double F now the match third so not that much but still more more than he would like I mean obviously you you would like zero wouldn't you 1530 goes down the te burgs it was out sorry said it mentally but not out loud out so second serve H Fury going down the middle burs back cross score backand down the line BS forand down the middle for hand down the line back and cross cour from burgs back and cross from back and cross cour from burgs and it's out so 30y all and bur got to be disappointed there given a little little window of opening and unable to take it so it's 30 all serve out wide and returned from burgs gets us to 4030 no soar is ranked peaches Ed is ranked way too high at 34 to be as part of the qualies and Bergs is now ranked 85 so he does get in there to the main draw straight away and then sorry guys just missing it so exra inside in forand BS forand cross forand into the net and we're to juice so despite that little run a bad for from Bergs he's he's hanging in there and he's making play and now is faltering a little bit jeez down the middle the backand crosscourt Bergs backand crosscourt backand down the middle Bergs forehand inside out down the middle and then forand cross down the line down the middle from burs forand inside out from backand Cross Court from burs inside out from backand cross courau from Bergs backand cross courau from forand down the line from and then backhand forehand inside out from met back hand down the line from Bergs and it's gone long Wild and the braacket goes and yeah Berg is unhappy here and you can understand why not condoning the racket smashing at all but it's uh it's a very frustrating time to be zizu bgs at the moment that's for sure and the serve going out wide and burgs down the middle burs coming to the net passing him down the line what a beautiful pass that is really good um not not a horrendous approach from Bergs but weak enough that he gave TR a bit of time to set up and Laser It Down the Line still with a good amount of margin Ferrera good amount of spin but confidently down the line seals the game Bergs now it's difficult although TR is not jovic you know and Bergs can be playing better it's hard to know what to say to Bergs at this moment in time because you know what where are the weaknesses in etary at the moment Berg serving down the middle Bergs returning with the back end Bergs hitting Cross Court forand Bergs forand crosscore even more powerful goes into the net really nice well work Point good use to the forand there from burgs I just worry these first serves are not he's not getting any free points really from his serve um so 15 love into the net goes out wide H very backhand crosscourt return and it hits a net and in Ed is unable to chase it down really lucky for burgs there I just wonder now I think I mean the more critical thing of course is to break because it doesn't matter how well Berg serves now if he doesn't break he's lost the match um but I just wonder he's got to be a bit more ambitious I think either with the probably with the aiming really into the net there because it's all well and good having Pace on the serve and against some players it will work well but it's definitely not working well against he's just absorbing all of it and he's not getting any good fre points second serve out wide Berg to the forand crosscore forand crosscore Berg to the forehand crosscourt it's 1530 sorry 305 sorry guys jumped ahead now so it's 4015 to bugs goes down the middle perfu returns down the middle bus with the forand crosscore and it's just oh four SI down the middle with the 4and drop shot really well done really good stuff there from and again he's you know neutralized the ball he done really well though very not going to lie I wouldn't want to be if I was supporting a particular player I wouldn't be too happy with very coming up against him in the draw he looks like a pretty formidable competitive competitor at the moment 4030 so down the middle bugs four hand inside in it's out from xary game burgs just going to take a short break guys we'll be back with you in just a minute e e okay guys back let's get to it shall we ET very certainly going to want to finish this in straight sets it's a kind of thing where obviously he wants to be fresh for the US Open but you'd probably take winning the title here and then coming maybe into the second round of the US Open you know 2-1 serving out wide Bergs getting to with the forehand backhand crosscore from backhand crosscore from burgs slic down the middle from forand inside out from Bergs backand cross quar Bergs trying to dominate with the forand again it's gone into the net few times that's happened maybe just got to lift it a little bit and push it a bit higher because it's gone into b a few times now yeah as I was saying you know it's not very sexy thing to say but you know 250 points is Big it's a big thing for someone like ET very and I think it' be just as valuable okay 15 love going into the net second serve now and then Bergs with a big four hand return it backand down the middle V BS four hand Inside Out bet Tre backand backand on the line from burgs backand across Court from Bergs and he just goes out love to Ed very 30 love down the middle oh it's just into the net goes out wide burs forand down the middle rray backhand down the middle slic from burgs down the middle forand inside out from burgs from back cross from burgs back and cross back hand down the middle from burgs for hand Inside Out Bergs hitting the back hand into the net and it is 40 love and I mean and just not quite seeing that talent that I think we know Bergs possesses it's not for him to be winning against gu like I should be there shouldn't be it there should be more signs of talent that there are of errors and that's not happening at the moment serving out again has he got the best first EP definitely could be better for anyway it's 45 second serve the BB forehand it's and B forehand down the middle but down crosscourt from rra and then oh it's just long from met it's 45 a rare 4and Arrow from Metra but he is in a position to be able to do that sort of thing at the moment God you have to drink a lot of water doing this I'm going have to go and fill it up at the next change over because I have run out 415 from M fery now hoping to get this game wrapped up goes out wide burgs down the line forehand crosscore slice from burgs inside out forand slice from bur coming into the net really good forand volley to finish fantastic and it's 31 well deserved that game and um yeah Burg's got to start making some stuff happen turning stuff around making a real impact otherwise it won't be more than 20 25 minutes before he is out what ber need here is accurate first serves that give him three points or at least points or at least puts him in a position where he can finish the point really quickly and needs to get through this game quickly and put the pressure right back on ET very let's see if he can do that one three serving out wide as out not the best start but does have a good second serve let's see what he does with his second serve he goes out wide but and then the forand cross cour down the line from Bergs really good strong and the jump smash at the net from Bergs really good one of those fantastic points that he has played and you know if you put you get a highlight re of burgs his best points in this match he looks brilliant and then you realize score and you think okay he's not doing this enough so it's a good start though that's what he needs more of that and you never know what can happen goes out wide with the serve goes down the middle Ed cross score Ed with the forehand down the line burs back hand cross core back hand Cross or it's gone into the net so 30 love to burgs unusual unforced error from at there it's got to be said B in the driving seat this game even more so if he can win the next Point Let's see first goes down the middle returns it deep and Bs hits a net cord and tries to hit big fall and fails I just I feel bad saying this because he's just won the point and he's 40 L up in the game the zberg serve maybe I was I've convinced myself that it's better than it's better than it actually is but I am surprised at the lack of accuracy it really isn't accurate at all it's going sort of in the middle of the Box you know 40 love going down in the middle up really good backhand down the line return forand crosscourt down the line from Metra and forehand uh and then but say in the point down the line forehand really excellent forand winner brilliant 40 love and now it's game just what um not really with the serve but with his ground strokes Berg showing real quality there and getting through the game and I would love to stay and chat more but I need to fill up my water bottle so I will chat more if I have time once I'm back and fill my water bottle up guys for cool right folks back I am got a little second to talk about the match before we get back into it um yeah won his last service going very easily and so for that reason it is good to see Bergs bounce back and uh and really stamp his author his authority on his service game and actually that's why this one is um quite a big service game because ja's got to reestablish his his momentum he lost it in that last game obviously he he wasn't serving so it's understandable but he'll want to reestablish his momentum otherwise Bergs will be back in the match so let's see three2 goes out wide Bergs forand out wide down the line from Ed down the middle from Bergs forehand down the line from etere forehand down the line again backhand crosscourt forand inside out from etere backand down the line attempt from burs goes into the net disappointing I don't think it was a bad shot selection but again just the execution not quite what he wants from Bergs going out wide really good serve from M very strong 30 Dove yeah so kind of how how do I describe this Mr sha I'll tell you in a second 30 love down the middle and it's out from Bergs 40 love yeah so I have been in my life a bit of a night owl and I kind of I can adapt my schedule to whatever really so I've sort of altered my sleep schedule so that I'm going to bed very late but I don't mind really as long as I get enough sleep I don't really mind if I go to bed at 4:00 a.m. and wake up at 11: my time table at the moment allows for that so I don't really mind I like the night time 40 love V serving goes down the middle Bergs forehand Inside Out fgs forehand trying to move it inside in but again hitting the net a lot of these shots going in the net as opposed to long and uh all of that good work in the previous game of Bergs service game just goes to show that as long as Bergs doesn't make any roads on the edge very serve he is doomed to eventually lose so yes so Berg's got to get back on it with the momentum try and win this game if he doesn't B if Bergs loses serve here based on how um based on how tr's been serving I think we could be looking at the end oh okay hang on sorry guys just happened with my TV stream so we can see it's 15 love to bgs H yeah guys we got an error here ah please accept my apologies I will try and rectify this as soon as possible just been a problem with the um with the match stream that I've been watching h for okay back sorry about back so Berg saving a break point here or trying to First out could be pivotal this second serve goes down the middle with the back hand down the line but misses so we go to chose down the line down the middle bur with the big forand cross cor down the line Bergs forehand volley backhand volley from from Bergs but not good enough doesn't put him away Ander passes him with the forehand really good movement there from at but you got to say Bergs just you either got to punch the volleys away with some Pace or you've got to have amazing touch and direct it really well slice it put it short Etc and burgs S was just placing in the middle there and it got really it was asking to be hit BS now serving out wide big serve out wide that's an ace back to juice only a second Ace the match which does surprise me I've got to be honest but it shouldn't when you look at his accuracy his serve speed is that surprising yes but the accuracy's absolutely not been there in this match goes down the middle another base though hey there you go not a lot of accuracy Ser his accuracy in this match just like that he pulls pulls out back toback Aces like I've said before a lot more of that is required wide and that zuber's forehand again going into the net it's odd it's completely the error is completely unforced but hey it is what it is back to juice now out wide for hand down the line from Berg slice for a met goes into the net it's Advantage to burgs okay serving out wide it's out game point for him and it's out back juice so second double fault already in this game two Aces and one double fault so tr's hand has really been taken out here it's w been about what Berg has been doing juice now B going out wide very returning with his forehand down the middle Bergs forand drop short fery getting up to it with his forand dropping to it again and Bergs finishing off with the forehand backand a Ed fer trying to block it back but to no avail into the net and it is another game point for burgs advantage to burgs going to the back kind of back cross from burgs back and cross from back and cross from burgs back and cross from for hand Inside Out NE cord goes in back and cross back and cross from B slice down the middle from forand inside out from burs going to the net ready to do the smash smashes bet gets it back smash but volley away from Bergs is enough and it's game and Bergs [Music] survives and uh some quite negative body language there from from Berg seems to be almost saying to himself how are you even making it this ult for yourself you should be powering through your service games a bit easier you know he um always saying to himself you should be doing better than what you are I think clearly to be fair now I think about it you know I think if Bergs is really playing well I think he'd definitely have a chance to beat that very because Bergs is not playing good at all H several forehand errors backhand as well but particularly bad the forehand errors since that is uh his his strongest side in my opinion um and he's still only one breakdown you know he still won four games in the first set if he was if he had won I think the first set was uh 61 and it was Now 51 then there's a case to be made that you know eter is just far too good and whatnot and Burg is just having a horror show but Bergs has been off and is still within a chance of catching up having said that of course it's now just two service holds from metery and he's and he's got the match so he's not far away so um B's got to do something about that and do something about it pretty quickly do apologize for this yawning guys I uh I'll be looking forward to my bed quite soon I would imagine well let's see ifar can finish this match off down the middle backand cross score from backend cross score from burgs back and crosscore burgs back and crosscore Inside Out forehand back and crosscore from burgs back and crosscore from forehand inside in from burgs foran down the line from pet backhand moonball from uh burgs backand crosscore from burgs backand Cross score from backand down the middle from Bergs backand forand down the line forand down the line from backand down the line etere scrambling now backand slice from Metra and that is you got to say welld deserved point from Bergs really worked hard there longer rally putting in the hard yards and he does on this occasion get his reward which is one point needs another three to win the game and then the match is really on butar how's he going to react to this that's could to be an important thing down the middle Inside Out Bergs inside out back and cross squ burgs down the line and it's long goodness me okay love 30 this game really is on javer in in a bit of bit of trouble now for the first time in I don't know how long ja's got some real problems to think about and uh yeah he's now making the erors last two points love 30 down the middle burgs returning down the line with the forehand burs fought back and crosscourt very forand inside in back inside out forehand Inside Out forehand from burgs back Ang down the line burgs with the forehand HR down the middle burgs with the slice and it's just out it's a shame because I was just about to say it almost just feels a lot more solid from Bergs you're no longer thinking oh he's going to make an error earlier on in the point he's he's getting into the point he's working he's playing with the margin of error and he's trying to match it very in that regard and was doing a decent draw with the back end slice just wide though so it's 1530 into the net second sir back and cross court from Bergs forehand to forehand wow big unleashes the big forehand and it's 1540 and that's very work to do here if he's going to stop himself getting broken that's for sure needs a big first serve here and gets it goes out wide and back and crosscourt Bergs back and crosscourt taking command it's very defending he inside out from Bergs Bergs forand down the line burgs forehand cross cour very cross forehand Bergs down the line with the forehand Ro defending with the back and slice burgs comes to the net try and and he gets lobbed oh no it's out and Bergs is broken wow who would have seen this coming when uh Bergs was break point down in or two games ago who would have seen that coming but and it's a big butt here I believe V you got to be really really careful here because ET just got this feeling that could bounce straight back and break straight back if Bergs doesn't keep his Focus he got to ride this wave and just s settled himself and try and hold here and stabilize what he's just done out with the first serve second serve to the four hand of very down the line really good return back hand from and then forand crosscourt from Bergs forand down the line back cross cour back on Cross Court from met is out just interesting the the the the momentum is just shifting a little bit now and Ander who was so incredibly solid and dependable in the first set and a half is now just seemingly a little bit more error prone not quite as solid as he was 15 love down the T but it's out well it's hitting the net actually so we will have a second serve the back hand of very crosscore Bergs down the line CH forehand crosscourt CH forehand crosscore Bergs forand down the middle CH backhand down the line very crosscourt Bergs forehand crosscourt cross and then drop shot from Bergs but it's picked off forbury running forwards and that's 15 all yeah well worked point from both just a poor drop shot from Bergs whicher chased down and was able to hit a clean winner off and if six foot five guy however well moves which is good for his height if someone six foot five can uh chase down your drop shot and hit a clean winner off it it's probably not the best drop shot so 0 first serve for burgs goes wide TR keeps in play down the middle burgs with a big four h inside out comes to the net smashes and wins the point very effectively there P 15 Big Four forehand Inside Out backhand Cross Court inside in forehand forand Cross Court from good defending for now attacking coming forward doesn't need to back hand goes into the net and it's 30 all big Point here massive effectively juice and uh very is two points from serving for the set equally Bergs two points from being a game away from the set equivalent of six points let's say goes out wide with the first serve coming in for the ser and volley and that's really well done from Bergs accomplished good quality volley was a fairly easy volley and when you'd expect him to make with how much space was available but still he had to do it and he did and that brings up game point goes out wide with the back and return down the middle burs with the forand aggressive looking to pass down the line doesn't quite make it and it's game to Bergs just like that Bergs has turned this set around a little bit being 42 down looking negative and yet here he is cool we'll just take a short break guys um yes short break we'll be back with you in just a minute for the resumption of play e e e okay guys we're back forand down the line cross court backand from Bergs and it's out from eter so sorry little bit of the delay there love 15 very is not 15 down and just like that burgs is three points from the set of course it's just one game one point into the game so still early on but um let's see it's very serving down the middle and returned so it's 50 and all sing down the middle bgs returning for down the middle for hand Cross Court burgs for cross for hand down the line burgs backand cross score forehand inside in forand inside in burgs the forehand crosscore edray with forehand down the line EDB the forehand forehand down to the down the line backhand going to the net and suddenly is looking tentative and looking a bit nervous he's not quite got that swag I got that that confidence in his solidity that he did have um at in the first set really and the first part of the second set the the last 15 or so minutes from at being a bit shaky to say the least I don't think it's unfair to say that at all it's very serving and it's just out 30 all 30 big Point here goes out wide Bergs really good return very backand down the middle Bergs for back hand down the middle Bergs backand down the middle V Inside Out Bergs backand cross cour Bergs forand cross score down the line Bergs back on Cross score forehand Inside Out Bergs back on crosscore back on crosscourt slice back on crosscourt slice back on crosscourt and then Bergs the forand down the middle Ed forand inside in burgs forand down the line backand crosscourt backand crosscourt from burgs backand crosscourt from M back down the line from burgs forand crosscourt from M backand down down the line and is's out from Bergs what a point what a long lung busting Point full of intensity that goes away of Ed he will be very pleased about that that would have been a tough one to lose had he lost it obviously Berg's disappointed there no that he couldn't get over the line and it is 4030 it's very serving the net very serving forand into the net from burgs and that is a gritty tough game that xray has got through and he gets it to five all and this is a long old set it's already 52 minutes long quite a battle BG serving now to at least take it to a tie break down the middle out is it no no it was an ace goodness me what a serve I couldn't quite tell there really good serve down the te from Bergs 15 love now let's see if he can replicate it not quite but very good comes forward to the net attacking with the forehand and now forand back and then the smash really good aggressive tennis all set up by much more well I don't want to sound all arrogant but I did slightly call it much much more accuracy in that surf now considerably more serving now goes down the T it's out second serve goes down the middle backand down the middle drop shot from burgs no not the worst shot selection but straight into the net it's not going to it's not going to cut it straight out and um now 315 down the middle very forand inside out and it is out 45 Bergs serving at 45 that wide down the middle burgs down the middle his backand with forand Cross Court forand Cross Court from forand cross cour from burgs forand cross cour from forand Cross Court from burs really good attacking play and he comes to the net really Dynamic punches away that backhand volley and there's that God I wish we had a replay on it that was such a good watch that he got low he really put his whole body through that forehand that injected that extra bit of pace and then with the confidence of that he ran forward to the net and finished it off confidently and competently at the net and that's really the key to him playing well I think that's what we haven't seen enough of that's what we need to see more of just that Dynamic aspect he's a very high energy player burgs when he's playing well likes to get the crowd on his side likes a big match and so while you can't expect to be playing in big stadiums at the ranking of you know 150 OD or whatever or whatever he's been earlier on in his career I think zizu Bergs the reason part of the reason I say he's underrated is that and this is good and bad I think he's the prime candidate of a type of player who could score a big upset on a big court against top player at Ground slam he's definitely got that ability he's got that Showmanship he's got that energy the problem is I also see him being exactly the kind of player to you know beat alcaraz on on Center Court or whatever if somewhere and then lose to someone ranked 30 which is obviously still a very good player TR is ranked 34 but like I can see him not following up a huge win that's just what Berg strikes me as a little bit and look sometimes the other play's just too good you know burgs absolutely couldn't get beaten by the world number 30 three or whatever if the world number 33 is playing well there's no doubt about that but anyway we'll park that for a minute apologies actually very nice serving to stay in the set okay down the middle serve forand cross score forand cross courau from burgs forand down the middle from forehand down the middle from Bergs backhand cross courau from burgs forand inside out from forand inside out from burgs backhand cross cour from backhand Cross Court from burgs backand Cross Court from forand inside out from burs coming into the net now doesn't need to wins the point great aggressive forehand there just like that it's 15 burgs a point in the head out wide with the forehand forand cross from B inside out from the forand back hand down the line for burgs Back forand Down the Line very which is out burgs now has a 30 love lead and not quite sure how this has happened really it's just uh I want to say that Burgers level has gone up it has a little bit but a lot of it is this dip in uh mentality in this form from met very unfortunately I don't want to say it but this is uh is the way I say it I see it sorry out wide from M forehand back crosscore and it's out wow wow wow love 40 just like that chav somewhat imploding here it's funny I was interested uh interestingly I made the same comment about you know Bergs ear on when he was losing the thought of implosion but this is quite the implosion from from M but that turn that return that serve sorry doesn't get returned so we continue on 1540 two more chances for burgs guys down the middle down the middle burgs down the middle as well Ed very Inside Out burgs backand crosscore Ed inside out burgs the for hand inside in coming to the net smashes that's just out I think so yeah that's got to be hugely disappointing for burgs to have a a smash on set point and miss it it's got to be tough to take he's got one more but then it's to juice where it's anyone's game 30 40 down the middle Bergs almost striking his rack here and very unhappy that he couldn't control the serve but it was well placed not the fastest but well placed and a lot of players would struggle to get a serve like that back in so it's juice just like that and uh very very much wanting to get this to a tie break going out wide it's out so we'll go for a second serve going down the middle burs cross cour Bergs back and crosscore very back and crosscourt Bergs back and crosscourt Bergs back and Cross Court very slice back hand down the middle burgs forand crosscourt very forand crosscourt burgs forand down the crosscourt crosscourt forand crosscourt excellent winner from Bergs brings up set point and in terms of my tiredness guys I'm not sure who I want to win here do I want ET Cher to make it through to the tie break and then obviously he's close to winning or do I just want burgers to kill it now and just get the third set started ASAP let me know what you fancy do happening tricky one so set point for burgs now TR serving out wide coming into the net with a forehand burgs back hand down the line and he misses and it's the second set to Bergs one set all guys I'll be back in just a couple of minutes look forward to seeing you that e e e e e Bri oh so did that yeah two long sets there especially the second so if this one could be a little bit quicker either way that would be much appreciated guys e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e so that's one love now e very sering now at love one down the middle it misses down the middle B with a for hand down the middle slicing with a forehand into the net and it's a love 15 opportunity for burgs and on behal of some of you who are residing in Europe or Africa at the moment whoever takes in who takes the lead I'm supporting them because crosscourt is out from ater he losing this Bergs 30 love up now purely for the basis of um yeah I think uh I'm wanting Bergs to put this match and me to bed right now it's another late one two hours and five minutes into this match it's R coming into the net and finishing off nicely 1530 e e e e e e hello to everybody coming on from Facebook now could see a couple of people from there and I just gone back and it's game now H FY has held and uh it's one all let me know what you guys think how do we think the match is going to finish up what we think I really can't call it depends which Bergs comes out set two or set one Bergs and vice versa for V out wide from Bergs forand going down the line V defending burgs and that's just out so 15 love two burgs four crosscourt from burs goes out and it's 0 very keenly contested match I think it's been a while since we've just seen a love game where it just one person's team rolling through it it seems to be every point is very keenly contested and could go either way very close indeed 15 all oh was out wide BS coming into the net forehand H very with the back hand down the line fergs with the forehand crosscourt and he just goes into the net and he'll be disappointed with that really will be had it on a plate there just needed to redirect it didn't need a huge amount of pace on it really just needed to put it in the right part of the core and unfortunately burgs fails to do that he's down 1530 needs uh needs a good serve here to get him a quick recovery Point here I believe but we shall see if he's capable first Ser goes out wide backhand from CH backand Cross Court from Bergs really good aggressive and Ja puts it into the net very close this match for sure and we're back to essentially juice uh he's going down the middle but missing cross score burs coming into the net with a slice back hand down the line from AAR going down the line hits the net cord Bergs with the forehand ere on the ground keeps it out oh just about scrap through that point the zizu bgs be very happy with that big Point as well to bgs now with a game point 4030 there's out second serve he's out wide Cross Court from met four hand inside out from met backand down the line from burgs four hand down the line from met backhand and that's out from meter Bergs holds really big hold there looks towards his team that is two one to burgs for for so we are back after the break etra very serving one two what's becoming a marathon thre setter already two hours and 11 minutes and we're only three games into the uh third set so looking to hold serve here while burgs just changing his racket I believe different tension burs is looking now to get the Breakthrough and take charge of this match let's see who's going to come out on top down the line bgs with the backham return inside out from it's just long from Burg so 15 love ttb serving second serve burs cross cour slice backand cross cour burgs Inside Out forehand backand cross cour BS back and cross score for hand Inside Out b back and cross score very and it's just long from that backand cross CR SC from Berg so it's 30 live to very back cross SC the back and crosscourt really lovely clean winner there haven't seen too many of those from the backand side but uh yeah burgs would definitely take that one really beautiful that must be really satisfying when the ground stroke is so good that he doesn't even need to volley very serving down the middle bugs returning well B very coming forward though in Hinds side the return from Bergs was a little bit short and allowed CH to come in and pounce and approach the net and he didn't even need to volley so uh really well played there from mberry tring down the middle and that's a lovely Ace down the team we're on two to all now quick game could do with a couple more of those and it's two now b s that why with the serve really good coming to the net voles it away very accomplished very well done from zizu bgs B goes down the middle backand cross core backand crosscourt burgs for hand down the line BS finishing up at the net really accomplished there 30 love going down the middle good powerful serve bags and it's out I'm return serve there easy bags 4 going out wide with the serve forehand big down the line and that is just what the doctor ordered for zuu bgs really quick game getting through that powerful attacking and it's quite a statement it's surely going to put bit of worry into a CH in the you know doesn't hold here and burgs gives a similar service game as he's just done there then in the of an eye it could be 52 having said that we know's got a good serve if he keeps it tight with the ground strokes and has a good first Ser percentage there's no reason he can't hold and make it through all however I am going to be slightly biased and say I do hope that Bergs makes the Breakthrough here and goes on to win because I'm I'm getting a little bit tired guys I can't lie it is a late one for sure all okay break over HRA very serving now 2 three wide B putting the into the net 15 love and the return is out as well 30 love out V very goes out wide and misses so that second of missing GES BS the point and it's 315 so is out so onto a second set now going down the middle bur is back on Cross Court back on Cross score burgs full hand on the line buty hitting it out burs getting the point there and it's 30 all another big Point here Bergs having a a half chance on uh tr's last service game he's definitely getting into the a lot more than than he was earlier in the match but the key thing is he needs to take it and needs to take that chance that half chance that he's got here two points away now from burgs it's very hitting the seres down the middle and it's out it's very important Big Shot 4 30 goes just crawls over the net so I believe that is a let first serve now for very down the middle burgs hits it down the middle Ed very forand cross burgs scrambling forand cross SC for down the line ber scrambling comes backand at the net Bergs tries to pass him volley from and he puts it away nicely game it's very guess it's three actually I'm looking at the stats here guys interestingly first percentage is pretty similar for both out of Aces similar for both two extra double FS R very four compared to two and actually the second serve of zzu Bergs is a good 11% better off than uh so terms of the stats Bergs is it's close but Bergs is slightly ahead which tells me burs hitting the serve down the middle coming forward with the forehand cross score really good big forand there fantastic but that tells me that in the first in the first set it was really really tight barely anything in it second set zizu bgs does confidently win it I mean let's have a look 52% points one for in the first set second set 52 for Berg so bang on and now in this third set yeah Bergs is ahead it does make sense he has steamrolled through his service games and continues to that's now 30 love for him um well everything's firing on all cylinders really um eder's first Ser also firing on all selers this set but the second Ser is definitely letting him down which is giving Bergs these half chances to no avail yet 30 love now for burgs is this going to be another comfortable hold looking at that so far BS going down the middle to the T smash oh and it's returned from mver it's a tough one for burgs this smash returned again from M but goes into the net this time and burgs will be very happy to see the end of that point 40 love now 40 love BS going down the te coming to the next seven volley the backand volley go straight into the net bit of a scrappy Scrappy volley there that's for sure from Bugs goes down the middle fur the forehand inside out bgs back and cross score watch very forhead inside in coming to the net and that's really good attacking tennis I think that might be the first second serve point that Bergs has lost this set let's see it is pretty impenetrable apart from that so big Point here for B she going to try and kill off the game 4030 puts out wide comes to the net big smash slam dunk oh but gets it back another smash from bergton is out oh you're joking that's got a sting he almost smashed it too far down and although it was a powerful Smash It smashed almost bouncing in the service box which meant it didn't get that depth that it just bounc way into the crowd it actually stayed short enough that trar especially being six fo five could jump and get a racket on it and that was enough and the deepest match was harder and he missed it and it's now juice B serving oh and now that's the second serve although the second serve has been working well in this set it's it's a turning for it where it starts to break down we shall see goes down the middle burs with a big forehand down the line BS big forand Inside Out going cross court from foran inside in Bergs recovering with the forand coming to the net TR oh and he splits that into the net you're joking that is wow that's quite some Miss from at TR worked the point really well and he was just wasn't even that close to the net he was just stood on the service line and when you know when you're here and you're still on the service line um service box line you put it into the net that's got to be disappointing gain point for burgs who'll want to take advantage of that for sure down the middle burs with the big forand Inside Out slice return from forand inside out from Bergs staying very deep back here Bergs but it's just long for rra and I would say Bergs slightly got away with that with that big forand he really should have followed it up and come to the next try to finish it off stayed back hit a weaker slower forehand but luckily hch Berry missing that one and it is 43 just going to put a fleece on guys actually sorry I was just saying it was actually a little bit colder I've got the windows wide open to be fair but it's because I like sleeping in a cold room it's very good for you um I'm going to grease on Sunday so I'm going to enjoy sleeping in a cold room while I can because uh I'm not going to have that in gree that's for sure um I will have access to air conditioning but it's not good to have that on all night as far as I'm aware so oh my hair's sticking up a little bit there isn't it goodness me oh lovely right 10 of you watching live hello there good to have you here you're coming in at the right time now this is let's getting to the crunch well it is now the crunch time this is now the point where if you lose serve the other person will Ser for the match so important times retra very got to stay focused 34 goes out wide it's just out second serve it's got to be maximum focus of both players now really important times goes down the middle burgs forand down the middle exra back and cross score burgs with the backand slide exra forand inside out ber in four hand inside out really big oh what a lovely shot that is just what he needed just what he needed 15 so interesting with this match I just just shows you how things can change in a tennis match and you should always keep plugging away and trying because first set and a half of this I just didn't see how Bergs is going to get through etf's defenses but that's absolutely changed for sure so it's La 15 forf needs this point now goes out wide Bergs with the backhand block return Bergs backand down line Bergs with the forehand passing at at the net really good CH should really have done more of the voles having said that I don't think anyone's going to claim that voling is exra very's strong point and what you got to give credit to to very is he's a very calm figure he's remaining calm composed doesn't look panicked even if he feels it on the inside and that's a good way to be it's l 30 now down the middle really good serve actually not a bad really good attempt at the return B got racket on it even though it was really fast and the length was perfect really deep but just wide it's a shame because if that had gone if that had snuck on the line then would have been an awkward third ball for rer for sure 153 it's just out so second serve Bergs if POS is going to want to capitalize run around hit a big forehand here that'll be the goal and does oh my goodness oh my listen I'm I'm sorry if I appear arrogant when I say this uh but I absolutely called that bag on there that's exactly what we just saw from burgs ran around big Inside Out forehand that is what you love to see that's what you can expect to see when Zuzu bgs is playing well and now he has two break points can he make the most of it and get crosscourt from burgs back can down the line oh and coming to the net now with a jump smash oh and he puts it into the net no he got too excited there I don't think there was the need to sort of leap as he smashed it I think he should have been a bit more composed could even have let the the ball bounce and then smash it what a shame what a dynamic brilliantly played attacking point that he just finishes off so poorly wow he might Point may come back to haunt him but he does have another break point can he finish it off here goes out wide very and now he smashes and quite the opposite cuts a very composed figure smashing that ball away and you just got to you just feel for zizu Bergs that was that was the moment it could still come in this game but mentally zberg has got to he's got to really focus here and try his best to recover because that was a a big big chance anyway we move on it is juice goes down the middle Bergs good back hand return backand Cross Court from rver forehand down the line from Bergs forehand Cross Court from Bergs Ed forand crosscourt Ed Bergs forehand coming to the net Ed trying to go for the L but this time Bergers doesn't need to worry about the smash possibly with a side of relief he doesn't have to worry about it and he's now got another break point so burgs great Point very serving burgs backand block return EX pack with the forand backhand Cross Court with burgs back and Cross Court forand the middle forand backand Cross Court with Bergs backand cross with backand cross with burgs backand cross cour with forand inside out from Bergs backand cross from as and it goes into the net and that is it well no that's not it for the match but Bergs breaks big big moment and now he's serving for the match this would be I think one of the one of the best wins of the year really but still a game to go things absolutely could go wrong but Bergs has done so well to fight back to get to this point you do wish he sort of hope that he can uh get it over the line here and finish things off needs some good serves here some accurate serves would be great here we go goes out wide and that's out great start straight away quick Point 15 love doesn't exped doesn't expend any energy in that first point really three more to go for burgs down the T and that's out 30 love good stuff from Bergs could be doing a little bit better with these returns and I think has been doing better with these returns earlier in the match but matters not it's thirsty love to bgs goes out wide HF deep return back on crosscourt from Bergs forehanded inside out from Bergs Down the lineer backand Cross Court fires it through great backand crosscourt winner it was asking to be hit spinny was that forehand and uh yeah no big surprises that that's how the point ended given the second to last shot let's just say that still 315 Bergs two points away from the win go down the te but it's out we'll have to contend with the second serve here down the T BS with a big four line inside out very back and cross score burs back and crosscore Ed back and crosscore burgs back and crosscore Ed back and crosscore burgs back and crosscore Ed forand Inside Out Bergs back hand crosscore forand inside out back hand crosscore from Bergs back and crosscore slice down the middle Travi trying to come in but puts the four dumps the foran into the net and you just were not seeing that in the first set and a half met very that level certainly has dipped Berg's taking advantages now got himself two match points for one of the biggest wins of the year for him 405 goes down the middle gets the ball back back hand cross quarter from burgs back and cross cour from met back slice from Bergs four hand inside out from met back and cross court from Bergs slice down the middle Bergs back inside out and then backand down the line for Metra very really good there two fantastic backhand winners in this game so despite a slightly poor returning the back have been excellent in this game from Metra saves a match point Bergs looking a little bit gassed out there you would think he would try and uh get the points finished a bit quicker now serving and it's out sadly second serve now can he finish it off back and cross court from Bergs forand inside out and it's out Bergs takes the win and he looks relieved and tired more than elated I don't think Bergs will be particularly amazed with his performance there but a really solid battling grinding win there from Bergs head Cher I mean the argument could be made perhaps he lost his will perhaps he lost his Focus towards the end of the match the US Open is of course next week in eter whilst he is not Contender for the title he's um he's at a ranking now where contradicting slightly what I said earlier on where I said that a title here would be really big it would be really big but Grand Slams you know they're even bigger and obviously there's more potential of Greater prize money if you get to quarterfinals and that's more than winning a 250 title so yeah perhaps not such a bad thing for eter being out here a little bit earlier allows him to get to Flushing Meadows a little bit earlier and uh properly prepare for the US Open for Bergs he'll be thrilled with this and let's see who is Bergs going to play next not sure but he's into the quarterfinals and um yeah with the draw being not the strongest and Berg's finishing off the sixth seed there you'd back him to to get through against someone else really anyway guys that is the end of the match that is the end of the stream from me it's been a pleasure having you here thank you to each and every person that tuned in whether you tuned in at the very beginning or just at the end there um really appreciate it apologies for the uh technical diffic difficulty at the beginning the screen not looking quite right obviously um it is something that I am going to work on try and rectify for the next stream because yeah you want it to be looking a little bit better than it is um but anyway nevertheless it is what it is hope you've enjoyed the match as much as I have it's a real long one um but yeah that's all from me I'm going to leave a little bit of closing music and uh I will catch you on another stream soon thank you very much everybody [Music] oh [Music]
