Gig Orange Tennis player in the quarterfinal

[Otis07]

tonight in the Australian Open....Not only a VFL but went to high school in Gallatin...The Big Orange are everywhere....I guess I should mention his name Tennys Sandgren

 

[Behr]

Gig'em.

 

[k-town_king]

Does he play for the TAM Vols?

 

[Otis07]

I wondered what the gig em meant...I assumed that was an Aussie thing

hunting frogs. I am serious.

 

[golfballs]

Betting odds are currently giving him a 25% chance in tonight's match... so a decent underdog

 

[Jax_Vol]

Parents obviously should have named him Golf Sandgren

 

[Roustabout]

Bo Gig Orange

 

[golfballs]

Go Vols!

Looks a little shaky early

 

[golfballs]

Apparently he’s been hounded about his politics by the media.

 

[golfballs]

This Korean guy is good

Of course he had to come to the United States to get his skill

 

[golfballs]

Finally a double fault. This guys serves have been on point

 

[golfballs]

Great win in that game! Cmon get one back here on service

 

[golfballs]

Finally a lead!

 

[golfballs]

There’s a woman in the crowd with a Tennessee flag!

 

[golfballs]

Second set to tie break. Tenny needs this bad after being up like he was

 

[golfballs]

The Australian commentor astutely noted that it is cold in Tennessee this time of year

 

[golfballs]

This crowd is very pro-Korean.

 

[golfballs]

Damnit. That is brutal

 

[golfballs]

Seriously? Nobody else here watching pulling for a former Vol?

 

[Coach Punk]

I did. The Korean guy just beat Djokovic and is going to be a good one. So will Tennys when he gets a long game and gets better footwork.

I'll pull for the guy, but I'm not watching tennis

Apparently Tennys is not like by his peers.

He believes in Pizzagate and also made a minor negative tweet towards a Williams sister during one of her matches.

He has erased all his tweets. Stay strong Tennys, don't let them get to you.

He is liked by his peers that actually know him. Check out Jarmere Jenkins (Serena's hired practice partner and former minor tour player) deleted tweet for an example:

“This should not be a story. I can personally vouch @TennysSandgren is neither a racist or a bad guy. While we certainly differ on numerous ideological fronts Tennys is still a solid guy. I’ve known him since i was 11.”

Well that is good. Media and others like Williams trying to write a narrative on him.
