2015 Australian Open Quarterfinals: Djokovic v. Raonic

[Kieran]

Funny jumpy stuff from Novak a few times on the forehand. But there's the break, as in, this goose is cooked...

 

[brokenshoelace]

Yeah, so it's safe to say I'll never watch a Raonic match unless it's against Nadal, ever.

 

[Kieran]

Both Raonic and Djoker have modelled their hair on Action Man, but only one of them is stiff as a toy doll out there. I know, it's unfair to keep hounding Milos but...ah what the heck. He's ugly to watch...

 

[Mile]

Djoker going strong. If Moe didnt get 1st set its literally over. No way he could do it in 5 sets.

So rematch of halffinals from 2014 ?

I agree, Milo usually is agly to watch. I'm thinking more and more about these young generation who of them is going to be the best or worth to watch, they are already around 25 yeas old and.....how many GS and MS have won? none :huh:

Exactly. They're middle-aged men now. I'm not convinced by the "late-peak" theory: I think it's just giving these slow moving bums an excuse. Of course, ordinary players can peak aged 29, but if there's a true great player among these lads, I haven't yet seen them...

I taped this and started watching but Kieran just killed it for me. MIlos double faulted on his first serve! From that point on, I knew there was no chance for him...Darn!

Novak played composed and solid tennis, Milos played too passive and did nothing to scare Novak at any point. He should have taken big cuts on Novak's second serves, risk it a bit. Better than sending softies his way. Milos has a long way to go.

I wish folks were not so hard on MIlos. Obviously you do not have to like his game but I bet you anything you only force yourself to watch him when he plays against your favorite player, who is going to be a top player that will expose Milos like crazy. But the guy has improved and keeps on improving. Today his strategy was wrong and it was a bad day at the office. But remember Birisbane final? The kid is getting there, slowly.

Really nice lob over Raonic's head by Novak... Nalbandianesque in it's precision.

Highest compliment that can be given to a tennis shot.

Yes, but aesthetics don't mean ANYTHING. It is solely about results.
