Nadal winner tented

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Nole is 2/2 breaks, Rafa is 0/1

 

[tented]

Great serve.

 

[brokenshoelace]

So I had cable issues. Cant say Im surprised with the result. Novak playing too good?

 

[tented]

YEs, Broken. Amazingly good.

 

[brokenshoelace]

How come? I thought Nadal was serving at 71%!!!!!!

 

[nehmeth]

Rafa upping his level finally

 

[nehmeth]

good to see

 

[Front242]

nice from Nadal

 

[tented]

I guess youre being facetious, but at this point Rafa could serve 100% and not hit through Novak.

 

[brokenshoelace]

I am, of course.

 

[Tennis Miller]

if Rafa doesnt win Miami, we know from history that this means he will have a terrible clay court season. Not.

 

[tented]

Rafa will get time violation soon.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Nadal almost never beats Novak on hards "out of the blue." Hed have to be in great form leading up to the match.

 

[kskate2]

he holds 2-1

 

[nehmeth]

This slow gritty court is Novaks wheelhouse. Clay is Rafas

 

[brokenshoelace]

Which made this match very easy to predict, at least for me.

 

[brokenshoelace]

So if Nadal is playing just "fine" or "good" leading up to the match, hell lose. Novak is just better on cement.
