Having to temper my friends expectations at how monumental of an upset it would be to win this match.
However, held serve with ease game 2. That drop shot was nasty. Had an ace, too.

Watching the run up to the match, looks like he's really stepped into the big leagues now. Hoping for the best. Went to several of his matches at Pitts. Seems like a great guy (and great tennis player)
Also, never thought I’d hear ole John McEnroe name dropping Mississippi State in a center court, grand slam event.
State is certainly getting some run. Bet Matt is up watching and a proud "pop"
Someone rocking a M-State tshirt in the Borges coaching box.
Fowler and McEnroe’s audio is a bit ahead of the action on my TV. They know the outcome of the point about a second ahead of the video.
Shoulda tied my question to he Fowler/McEnroe comment too…I’m watching, but it’s def not those two commenting.
If you’re watching the alternate stream on ESPN app, the. It’s not Fowler/McEnroe.
I just switched to the alternate stream bc ESPN2 switch primary programming to another match.
If Nuno coulda broken back there, we probably would have gotten it back as the primary match.

Winning a set against this guy is a hell of an accomplishment. Winning it 7-5 after being down a break at 5-2, is incredible.
I missed prematch, did he say he was from Yazoo city HS or state?**
I can’t believe they were wearing the banner M. Don’t they listen to the fashion aficionados on Thunder and Lightning?**
I wonder if anyone working for ESPN in Australia besides Fowler would know enough to drop a Starkville reference.
He lost in 4 sets. Great showing this year. His payout was $375,000
He may have played an exhibition in Jackson, but we've never had a tour level pro tournament. He would be very familiar with Jackson tennis legend Slew Hester, who was president of the USTA and the driving force behind building the current US Open facility back in the 1970s.
MC’s tennis coach is from the Jackson/Clinton area, and he was GM of McEnroe Tennis Academy before the MC job
