2017 Australian Open Day 6: Saturday, Jan 21 - Order of Play

[Carol]

I really look forward to seeing Milos destroy Rafa.

Ahhhhh, ohhhhhh, why you hate Nadal so much? :nono :ras::lolz:

 

[herios]

Grigor and Richard start just now, at midnight in Melbourne

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

I must say this, I find Girgor's game really addictive. A good looking player for sure.

I really look forward to seeing Milos destroy Rafa.

Ahhhhh, ohhhhhh, why you hate Nadal so much? :nono :ras::lolz:

your idol beat the arrogant old Swiss so many times....it's a good reason to hate him !!!

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Checking out the Richard-Grigor game a bit before going to work and I have already seen enough beautiful backhands to last me the whole day...

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

Dimitrov looking really great. 6-3 1-0 with a break of serve.

He and other Federer fans have said this already many times. That is not the reason we dislike him. It's his style of play we don't like. I'd rather watch Federer blast winners from every part of the court defeating top opponents in 90 minutes than watch an error filled slug fest of endless retrieving that's 4 hours long. Might as well just watch athletics if you like watching people run for hours.

Hey, and I don't like too much how Roger plays even that the last match played very well against an useless player like Berdych is but not for that reason I hate him as more than el Dude instists on it . I rather two thousand times to watch Rafa when he is playing and serving well

Berdych is useless? Forgotten last year's result already? He didn't play badly at all and actually had fantastic serving stats and good ufe/winner ratio. Federer was just incredible and made him look bad. Also, I've already said I don't mind watching Nadal when he's playing well but he was not playing well today. There were practically no trademark down the line forehands and lots of moon balling and general slop. He did hit a few nice serves though. I've enjoyed watching many matches where he was playing very well. This was not one of those days and both guys stunk for large parts of the match. Zverev got cramps and could barely move and yet still Nadal wasn't winning points with winners and engaging in the usual dogfights and waiting for his opponent to miss which he ultimately did.

Based on that criteria, you should like Milos' game too, because his matches are filled with games loaded with one two punch points.

Yeah, I quite like watching the new Raonic 2.0 alright. He's improved tons. Just wish he wouldn't stick his tongue out. Annoyed me about Sampras too.

:snicker
True. The tongue sticking is annoying all right. For Sampras was a routine at every serve, Milos does it randomly.

 

[Carol]

And talking about easier or difficult draw.....what a path of roses Muzz has in his way, who will be his first tough opponent?

 

[Front242]

^ Watched the highlights of the WTF match beaten Raonic and Murray 'cos I didn't see it live and he played absolutely the best I've ever seen. Murray won it by a mere 2 points in the end. A heartbreaking loss for Raonic but he knows he can hang with the best of them now and he easily could have won that match.

Grigor 2.0 looks better and better. Play boy might lust mature this year.

Kei or Roger clearly.

The bookies are anticipating now a Murray - Raonic final with Novak out

 

[Puppet Master]

I truly felt like watching Fed play out there. Fantastic stuff from Grigor. Gasquet can't even touch him. Poetry in motion. He is barely making unforced errors and yet hitting an abundance of winners. Impeccable. He has a very good chance of reaching the semis now. His only obstacle is Goffin/Thiem. I don't see how any of them could win in their current forms.

Yeah, sounds about right to me although hopefully Federer v Raonic

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

Grigor was great today. Clutch throughout the match. He clearly overpowered Gasquet in every way. His backhand is beautiful. Happy to see him get back to winning ways. He has reached the round of 16.
