Grigor Dimitrov v Aslan Karatsev Extended Highlights | Australian Open 2023 First Round

Awesome sauce Grigor 👌 😎 🙌 👏 👍

Can't stop staring at Aslan's legs lol

Григор уже немолод, даже лысина проглядывает. Но теннис его по-прежнему высокий классом. Всё держал под контролем ни разу не упустив свою подачу.

Karatsev seems to lost his willingness to grind

What is that white flag next to Karatsev? Where is he from?

grigor is not consistent but I love watching him play

WTF. THey didn't put up Karatsev's flag in the Display box.

Thank god Dimitrov is still around. One of the most pleasing game styles on tour ever. I wish him consistency and mental edge in his future matches. Go Dimi!

Yeah, Dimitrov won the match but almost all of the highlights were from Karatsev, way to go with the highlights AO

what racket is dimi using here?

Every player should have right to play under her/his country's flag.
ATP/Tennis Australia, do not mix sport with politics. Wars are run by politicians not sportsmen/sportswomen.
Why during the invasion of Iraq, 20 year bombing of Afghanistan not to mention the genocidal Vietnam war US, Australian, UK... athletes were allowed to compete under their national flag? Are Israeli olympians responsible for the policy of their government towards Palestinians?

All wars are equal, but some wars are more equal than others.

Dimitrov switched to a Blade from Pro Staff !

Who said Federer was retired?

Браво!

So many brutal 1st round match-ups in this GS !!!

thick calves, lots of hot air inside.

Karatsev has a huge talent for 🎾.
Pity that he has low selfconfidence now.

terrible highlights, slowmos i dont care about and all the time shwoing their faces and stuff, cant you just show points???!!

I'd love to see Dimi go deep in this tournament, once again.
Consistency and confidence are his two weak areas; if he can deal with those, I predict he'll get to the fourth round, at least.

Karatsev was pretty good, but Dimitrov was on fire.

Karatsev has lost his clothing sponsor 😕 Poor guy has had a rotten year. Hopefully he can keep this level of play up, he should be able to get some good results this year then.

seriously blur out the Russian flag..

What is Grigor wearing

Why does Grigor’s game and movement always seem so manic? 😬

Excellent performance from Dimi today!

Good job Grigor

man, karatsev really fell off, he needs to find his level

I did not like this match at all- I don't like it when two of my favorite players have to play each other in the 1st round!!! Basically I've lost one of my favorites real early! 🤬

ESPN sucks.

Those 2 are not relevant. Nike at it again with that feminized LGBTQ subliminal programming outfit on the men. Nike is into social engineering.Good luck with that!

Well Done Dimitrov, Karatsev like they others players from Rusia, is so hard to play with them.

He plays like Federer, but he has Nadal's hair

Hopefully baby Fed does better

Karatsev hits hard and deep and can blow an opponent off the court when he's playing well but it didn't happen against the athletic Dimitrov.

Let’s go bro happy for ya!

grigor looks promising especially if he continues with the confidence in his backhand

Karatsev is such a Fraud!

Well done Grigor, 👏👏👏

Love Dimitrov's outfit.
