This Tiafoe, oh, he’s a good boy, a real good boy. Playing that tennis, you know? He’s going up against that Hurkacz fella. Heard they call him Hubie, or something like that. Anyway, that Hurkacz, he’s a tough one, a real tough one. That match, they call it, Tiafoe vs Hurkacz, gonna be a big one, a real big one. I seen it on my phone.
They gonna play on August 17th, 2024. That’s what I heard, anyway. They play in Cincinnati, wherever that is. It’s in the USA, I know that much. They call it ATP Cincinnati 2024. Fancy name for a tennis game, if you ask me. I don’t know much about that ATP. Is that like a club, or a gang or something?
Now, this Tiafoe, he’s fast, real fast. Runs around that court like a chicken with its head cut off. But that Hurkacz, he’s tall, like a beanpole. Hits that ball hard, real hard. I don’t know how Tiafoe is gonna handle those hard hits. Might knock him right over, it might.
- Tiafoe, he’s got that serve, you know?
- Wham! Right across the net.
- But Hurkacz, he can return it, he can.
- Back and forth, back and forth they go.
They played before, these two. Tiafoe and Hurkacz, they got what they call a “head-to-head.” Like two goats butting heads, I reckon. Don’t know who won more, though. Don’t really keep track of those things. Just like to watch them play. But I think Hurkacz won more. I’m pretty sure about that. He’s a tough guy.
This match, this Tiafoe vs Hurkacz one, it’s gonna be on that Grandstand court. Big court, lots of people watching. Hope Tiafoe ain’t nervous. Lots of pressure, you know? Playing in front of all those folks. I’d be nervous, that’s for sure. My hands would be shaking like a leaf.
They say you can follow the Tiafoe vs Hurkacz results. Don’t know how, though. Maybe on the TV, or maybe on that internet thing. I don’t really know how to use that internet. My grandson, he showed me once, but I forgot. It’s all too complicated for me.
Tiafoe, he needs to win this one. Gotta get to that US Open final, they say. Big deal, that US Open. Lots of money in that, I hear. More money than I’ve ever seen, that’s for sure. Enough money to buy a whole farm, maybe two.
That Hurkacz, he won’t make it easy, though. He wants to win too. Everyone wants to win. That’s what makes it a good game, I guess. Keeps you on the edge of your seat, it does.
I remember seeing some other fella, Taylor Fritz, play Tiafoe once. Five sets, they played. Five! That’s a lot of tennis. Fritz won that one, I think. Heard he was gonna play some other fella named Sinner. Don’t know him. But Tiafoe needs to play better than he did against Fritz if he wants to beat Hurkacz.
- That Fritz, he’s a good player too.
- He won in five sets.
- Tiafoe needs to watch out for those.
This Tiafoe vs Hurkacz match, it’s gonna be something, I tell ya. Gonna be a real barn burner. I’ll be watching, that’s for sure. Even if I have to ask my grandson to show me how to use that internet thing again. Gotta see who wins. Gotta see if Tiafoe can make it to that US Open. Or if Hurkacz will stop him.
These young folks and their tennis. Back in my day, we didn’t have time for such things. We were too busy working in the fields. But it’s fun to watch, I’ll give ’em that. Especially when it’s Tiafoe vs Hurkacz. That’s a match worth watching, it is. I hope Tiafoe can run fast enough, and Hurkacz doesn’t hit the ball too hard. That would be bad, real bad. But we’ll see. We’ll see.
Hope they both have fun, though. That’s the important thing. Winning ain’t everything, you know. Just gotta enjoy the game. This Tiafoe vs Hurkacz game, gonna be a good one, a real good one. I can feel it in my bones. My old bones know these things. Yep, a good one for sure.
