2017 RG Final: Wawrinka vs Nadal

[DarthFed]

That's strange, why have a player's coach on stage with the players

 

[DarthFed]

If I'm Stan I sure as hell don't want to take pictures with him

 

[kskate2]

I don't think they gave Tony a trophy. Maybe he had that made for Rafa

 

[DarthFed]

It's bad enough they give out trophies for 2nd place and make the loser take pictures

 

[Front242]

turned it off after the match. Emotional speeches from both no doubt

 

[Carol]

Ask the RG Organitation who makes the decisions and they probably ask him to give Rafa another Trophy

 

[kskate2]

still not sure what that 2nd trophy was about

 

[Front242]

probably something to do with it being a 10th title

 

[kskate2]

probably. i'm sure we'll hear about it later

 

[golds girl]

it was really extra this yr, with the video montage of all of Rafa's wins including what happened 30mins ago....stan will need extra comforting from his gf

 

[kskate2]

and i'm sure he'll get it

 

[Front242]

haha

I love that huge add from the crowd, I've never seen that before in any tournament

 

[kskate2]

Stan talking to Mac right now

 

[kskate2]

said Rafa robbed him of time

 

[Front242]

well he does need a lot of time to line up his backhand. Same as Gasquet and Thiem

 

[Front242]

Nadal played more aggressive than he has of late

 

[kskate2]

that's what Stan said. Rafa was too aggressive and too good today.

 

[Front242]

actually looked like Nadal was feeding off Stan's pace too. He liked the pace of his shots and didn't need to generate as much of his own. Stan probably should have varied things a bit and go for more body serves
