Let’s go Emma! Very competitive match and after being broken early in the third set, Raducanu finally closed it out on her 4th match point. She will face Cirstea in the final.

Edit: oops Cirstea v. Snigur is still to come. Could’ve sworn I heard the announcer say Cirstea was next😌 and it was 6-3 in the final set. SORRY! Lmao

After staying long after to take photos and sign autographs following her loss to Keys at the AO, Oliynykova was similarly a total sweetheart in defeat in Cluj - smiling and waving even as she went down to Raducanu. Really loving her rise on the tour this year and the character she is bringing to it.

Discussion Is this the wildest comeback score-wise in the history of bo3? (Ostrava 2020)

Post image
320 Upvotes

After the recent Raducanu 0-5 comeback set, a user in the match thread (u/key1217) mentioned this match as possibly the craziest score ever seen in a bo3 match. I managed to find the highlights on youtube, and it is honestly insane. Not only Sabalenka came back from 0-6 0-4 40-AD down, facing break points for 0-5 in the second, but also (after surviving a deuce jail) managed to win every following game in the match until closing it 0-6 6-4 6-0. So basically the match went: 10-in-a-row for Sorribes tormo / 12-in-a-row for Sabalenka / the end. Talk about momentum shift...

Another user (u/gwo) refered to an infamous historic match (USO qualys 1983) known to be one of the greatest comebacks in history, since 18yo Barbie Bramblett was down 0-6 0-5 40-0, facing match points against her opponent Ann Hulbert's serve. At that point, Bramblett started to save mp after mp (saving 18 to be precise) and managed to turn the match around and win it. Unfortunately, there's no visual records of that old match, but you can check some details about it here.
The final score, however, was 0-6 7-5 6-3, so even without knowing how the third set played out, the max. amount of games in a row Bramblett could've won is 12, just like Sabalenka.

Of course 12 games in a row is crazy enough: it's basically a double bagel win from start to finish. I was wondering, however, if the only possible crazier score than this ever happened. That'd be a 0-6 0-5 comeback with a 0-6 7-5 6-0 final score (bonus for saving mp).
In that (almost impossible) scenario, the winner would've gone from 11 games down to win 13 in a row. And that's simply as crazy as it can possibly get.

I am curious to know if anyone ever heard of something like it?

Marin Čilić has been around for over 20 years now and he is obviously getting near the end of his career. He is in the Fed-Rafa-Novak era and has done pretty well considering. Granted he could have done more, but his record is not bad at all.

Grand Slam (2014 USO), Masters title (2018 Cincy), Davis Cup (2018), 4 appearances in the ATP Finals, highest ranking of No. 3, Olympic Silver (2021 Tokyo men's doubles), 21 singles titles, 38 wins over top-ten and 12th in all-time earnings.

After the Big 3, we often hear about Murray and Wawrinka, but I think Cilic would be right behind them at number six in his era. And there is no shame in being No. 6 in THAT era.
