For a change, they both hit a couple of great shots there.

So much for Novak winning in two... :) Not a pretty first set from either guy, but Rafa stepped up to hold his serve.

The way Nadal wins sets and matches against other top players is just such nonsense. Cheese

Unfortunately, I missed all but the last couple of games, so I'm not sure what happened, but I am surprised. Very surprised. But pleasantly so.

RB, since it's all about me, I'm still not relaxed, but we're half way there. ;) :snigger

You spared yourself unnecessary angst.

Well the gnat did what he does best and weaseled himself out of another game he had no business winning.

That was all Novak's undoing there.

Careful now. Moxie and Tented are going to raise your warning level for uttering rational thoughts.

Actually, Moxie said "Wow, Novak really let Rafa off the hook there."


Only problem with that is this is far from the only match where this has been the case. See last year's US Open.

Mostly trading errors with a few good point interspersed.

Cali, quit watching Rafa matches. It's that simple. Give us all a break, and just stop.
