Yunchaokete Bu vs Learner Tien July 27, 2024 (Chicago Men's Challenger)

10 that's surprising 45k titles 40 what has set learner apart during this stretch if maybe this is one of the first few times you so just like that boot reps in the [Music] great 15 love [Music] he's 22 years of age he's also at a career high 14 [Applause] you know thinking back and I mentioned that six love 42 the last couple of weeks Bloomfield Hills and then here in Chicago where Buu had looked comfortable cruising including one against Paul jub it was up 63 three love 31 two breaks so I think three love and and then all of a sudden just had an absolute as this match progresses tenant love two Ken has Eric the [Music] that match against a May was a very high against May was a very high quality matchup I didn't get to see the win over Benjamin bonsi it's it's always interesting you know they're they're going to be especially in social media age you know the positive comments also 15 yep um and and I you know listen those are the biggest gifts that he has been blessed with the heart rate has to stay pretty low as well game so 10 on the scoreboard but damage has been done already Buu with an early break leaded to one watching live streaming Lee 2 and Luke savl in a match tiebreak over M Kyer and Benjamin sigin 103 in that match tie break gab the Alo the other winner and now bu y Cho serving 2-1 15 all you know I'm going to find a spare ball from off the court bring it with me court side and then if I catch the ball just a little switch definitely have seen that happening at baseball a lot over the last couple years those those play people who will stand out there and just a tip if you happen to be going to a tennis tournament anytime in the near future 30 all beautiful yeah so comfortable on that move out to his right and that balance on that backhand Wing [Music] is absolutely so T back into this match sh [Applause] [Applause] [Music] 305 40 15 Game T so nice turnar around here 10 gets us to 32 we are perfect yeah so listen for for Buu right it's [Applause] there are obviously a lot of great things that Buu brings to the table but net play is not one of them he nearly costed himself the match yesterday with his inability to F he nearly costed himself the match yesterday with his inability to finish at the net and grer knew it one of those match points I mean just a sitting overhead from nearly on top of the net 40 just kind of have to accept that and work to get a little bit better week in week out 405 out game boo three 0 love 15 you know I I I thinking back and I didn't have time like interesting that in a moment like that um Boo's not giving 10 a ton of [Music] well [Applause] done if that has been the the backand yeah that's where he's had the biggest issues through the week especially in that Mayo matchup it was a ton of heavy heavy forehand to that side testing it Buu one for two so far in his break chances effective slider to deuce [Applause] dude oh Advantage team game 10 yeah tried to scoot out into that ad Corner take let's go yesterday what they were doing to draw the ire of grer was very loud cheering when grer made errors which as 10 finds the right contact point there with that backand it's not 15 to him they weren't speaking during points it just was annoying and it definitely seems toned down today 15 [Applause] 30 30 all again there as as this match is progressing and you do a see again when when Buu has a pretty comfortable swing he's going to go heavier on that forehand just treat it like a righty Lefty matchup 40 30 [Applause] [Applause] G love 15 three doubles for 10 already and that score line of three and one was below 50% through much of that match yesterday and certainly makes things incredibly challenging for him that is not [Applause] 1530 oh that's how you should exploit a guy who's struggling with the serve strugg with One Wing that backhand side boo [Music] 15 it's too good from the Sho strings that four that's that backhand that c him and I said Dio but certainly meant Buu who has bagged a late break himself but serving for the Senate [Music] 54 most interesting even though he loses that second Ser point [Applause] that set up nicely [Music] oh Buu had some real issues with a couple of line calls yesterday [Applause] good leave yeah composure so crucial learner 10 boys and girls moment but that's what exactly has to be done right applaud your opponent for the quality and then bring like I said you know after that love 15 moment the the big spots [Applause] he doesn't have the transition game man it's don't get me wrong but that's one you just angle off into you know into the corner he just is not confident with it yet OU yep yeah don't dude he keeps getting free points out to that Deuce Corner despite game in first set boo I actually agree with that Eric you know a couple weeks ago was a s a break lead for Le so T has certainly in Bloomfield Hills to mention all five matches went to three and he actually lost the so listen that's and that's one where he shouldn't he just I mean that one you have you have to learn your wa Dude Love [Applause] game 10 could have been a disaster there first game what he spends most of his spare time doing is actually watching U roing videos on YouTube [Applause] yelling at the fans who are walking around and they think it's got to be somebody else I wonder who they're yelling at right now 40 love hey [Applause] 40 [Applause] 15 now things get a little bit tighter here love to g boo yeah think that's a pretty comfortable swing's going to be 23 24 in terms of the immediate future you know his learner going to play in kamazo 15 [Applause] low there are a couple components to that that decision right number one got a wild card a discretionary one locked up he also is in the lead for the usda's US Open Wild Card Challenge so in my opinion that shouldn't be part of the decision-making component there is something to be said okay and so it will be an interesting decision over the next couple of weeks but if he [Music] does Boo one two 15 love rare to see either player grabbing Ace here on the day to see either player grab an ace here on the day frankly rare to see either player make a first serve 15 all [Applause] 305 40 15 I think bu was checking to see if Tien was going to concede the point G move to all proceeding along pretty quickly here to that's the high backend error that we have seen throughout this [Applause] week this might be the biggest moment of the match h oh no yeah this love 40 one of the few times it has was against this opponent in Bloomfield Hills [Applause] 1540 yes sir Alex mikkelson just a point starter the big fellow who is watching now after turning off the rowing stream from the Olympics 10 four straight points and a game point now out game that is a gantic hold out of learner so listen one thing we got at their Peak and right now Buu he's had this moment here this opportunity over the last hour so [Applause] with 10 that serve percentage lower the backand has been a question has missed forehand a little bit you know if you if you will off from where he has been over the last couple of months and and bu really hasn't really been able to take advantage of it in the way that he would want obviously the break chance is there he's up AET don't get me wrong [Applause] 40 15 game boo three on all change please second ECE of this set three games all five excuse me four on the day now for 15 love great wonderful shot but I think listen I I criticize boo that backand almost got away from him again just caught the Bas 30 old and for the day as well 40 great work game 10 yeah digging in learner 10 so thank you to the two of them I know I think I think those of us who have been watching the moment where tin puts in a charge love 30 come on right [Applause] IES has a game point game [Applause] Bo so I I do find myself thinking and I lot Learners hasn't been able to make the adjustment that kind of sorts that out 15 all [Applause] [Music] yeah 30 Old by a couple of inches great shot I mean how gutsy is that right game 10 yep yep yep [Music] shift and and he just comes back that next Point puts his head down puts the blinders on and has done a very good job of of keeping himself level [Music] 30 30 old I went through the middle once again yeah almost [Music] game boo great chances in [Music] [Music] this very wide into the dece corner to open up that forhand line yeah it's been impressive speaking of angles 50 all [Applause] w [Applause] what a break lucky one 14 30 40 g bo boo bags a late break and he will [Applause] [Applause] 30 a sneaky stuff there from Buu just playing some cat and mouse in t 2 40 15
