Fast

I'm not going to spend 3 hours here, you probably know the end of the story...

Yes, Jannik is playing less well. Physically, it's a bit lacking. He admitted to having the diarrhea. And despite what he says in an interview, he is perfectly aware for me that his level is not at its best, but that the important thing is to improve. But even at 80% of his level, Jannik has everything to beat the young Learner Tien in two sets. The American will be playing his first main tour final. He is defensive by nature, sets himself a little far from his line, and curls his forehand a lot with his wrist to round off his forehand trajectories and gain time in his defense. Here in Beijing, he has worked on his forward game given the conditions. But in attack, he will have difficulty hurting Jannik who moves too well. And anyway, Learner will have few opportunities to attack. He will be attacked from start to finish, and unfortunately, his defensive quality will not be enough. He is too far away. The only thing we can say in his favor is his left-handed serve on the advantage side, because we know that it bothers Father Sinner. But he's less powerful than Shapo or Atmane, and I'm afraid that leaves Jannik too much time to organize. In short, not much to add here. Let's see the odds on Jannik's side, but I have very little hope...
