Ugh, Mugray in full swing.

 

[John Dunbar]

this set is clayray's gift to djokovic. do not waver in your beliefs, brothers and sisters of the faith.

 

[miserable]

Mugray showing up earlier than i thought.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Murray's first serve has gone.

 

[Niraj]

Awful set

 

[Steve.1981]

I knew putting on The Witcher was a good idea. I check back in and Novak's serving for the set at 5-1. He's too damn good.

 

[Diprosalic]

temporary setback. I STILL BELIEVE

 

[Oare]

Would somebody please be kind enough to shed some light upon these abstruse abbreviations everyone's using all of a sudden?
I've tried Google, but all I can find are messages on tennis forums where those seem to be understood by everyone.

CYGS (is it something like "Consecutive Years Grand Slam"? If yes, does it stand for "two grand slams two consecutive years in a row" or "one grand slam spanning over two consecutive years"?)
NCYGS ("Non-consecutive Years Grand Slam?")
GCGS ("? Career Grand Slam?")

Thanks!

cygs is calendar year grand slam, all fours slams in one season. gcgs is golden career grand slam, all four slams and olympic gold in singles during a career. ncygs is non-calendar year grand slam, all four slams in a row but not during the same season.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Career Grand Slam (win each of the four majors at least once in your career)
Golden Career Grand Slam (the above, plus the Olympic Gold)
Calendar Year Grand Slam (win Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, US Open, in that order, starting with the Australian Open)
Non-Calendar Year Grand Slam (win the above four in order, but you can start at any point, e.g. if Djokovic won he'd have Wimbledon-US-AO-RG)

Theoretically you could also have Golden Calendar Year Grand Slam and Golden Non-Calendar Year Grand Slam as well, but nobody has ever done either of those.

Wow, that was quick.
Thank you!

 

[Carl2291]

Holy shit what a set from Djok.

 

[clemenx]

It's so damn confusing to hear a crowd cheering for Djokovic.

I'm at work and everytime I hear the crowd cheer I think it's a Murray point but noooo. Nole did something awesome.

 

[Kensuke]

Djokovic just upped his level in set 2. Murray couldn't keep up. Let's see if Murray can match in in set 3, but I'm not optimistic.

Steffi Graf won all the slams + Olympics in the same year (1988)

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Steffi Graf won all the slams + Olympics in the same year (1988)

on the women's side, yes.

 

[John Dunbar]

Steffi Graf won all the slams + Olympics in the same year (1988)

that's because steffi is an angel.

 

[Niraj]

Not looking too good for Murray

 

[TheChamp]

Clayray has lost this I think, his serve has just gone

 

[zero_suit]

Murray noooo

 

[clemenx]

Oh noooo. That's heartbreaking.

 

[miserable]

well, there it is

 

[ReplacementPelican]

That was all kinds of awful from Murray, Jesus.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Clayray died for our sins.

 

[MrS]

B O T T L E R

Murray is garbage

Long live Djok

 

[Pepiope]

Wow Murray...

 

[JetSetRadio]

Participating is more important than winning.

 

[Uzzy]

Clayray died for our sins.

RIP in peace, May 2016 - June 2016

 

[John Dunbar]

but the prophecy... the scriptures...

 

[TheAutomator]

Clayray playing dumb so Djokovic underestimates him and he comes back

 

[Sax Russel]

Have we started to accept the inevitable?

 

[John Dunbar]

Have we started to accept the inevitable?

christians have been wrong for good two thousand years now, what's couple more hours for the church of clayray.

 

[Ricker]

Crowd calling outs now lol...

 

[oti]

Let's hope for rain.

 

[Deadman]

The weakest era

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Murray really needs to rediscover his first serve. :/

 

[Slaythe]

Get rekt murray.

Go Djoko !

 

[Kensuke]

Wow, Murray is totally gone. He seems tired already. I guess the rest of his matches have taken its toll.

 

[jelly]

Balls.

 

[TheAutomator]

That was world class.

 

[Sax Russel]

Wow, Murray is totally gone. He seems tired already. I guess the rest of his matches have taken its toll.

Does seem a bit unfair that they let the top seed have two weeks of practice hitting while everyone else had to play real matches.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

That shot was sheer class from Novak!

 

[John Dunbar]

darkness sweeping across the land. it's a chill wind blowing.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Novak's depth of shot is incredible. Every shot is within half a metre of the baseline.

 

[John Dunbar]

i never really liked tennis anyway. clown sport, glad it is dead.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Burn the band, oti, burn it!

 

[Brinbe]

Nole cranked it up to 11, goddamn. Blitzing Murray now.

 

[oti]

Burn the band, oti, burn it!

It is framed on my wall though.

 

[John Dunbar]

your lack of dedication to the cause is most worrying.
