2018 Wimbledon Championships - Men

The Greek in trouble. Down an early break in the decider 2-0

Nadal to break Kukushkin at 5-4 and steal the set he should've lost 6-2. LOL story of dull's career.

 

[Carol]

If Feli would have been more dedicated and sacrificed instead to have a lot of fun he would have been much better player and also would have a bazillion QFs and SFs but everyone chooses what ever they want

 

[DarthFed]

Nads is always good at stepping on the throat of the weaklings. Once he held at 3-3 the set was over.

2 mp's for Bemelman's

Nadal wins the first in far from convincing fashion. Literally no aspect of his game is clicking and he looks very shaky and unsure in his approach. Those high sliced returns are awful. Also, I've said this a 1000 times, but Nadal can't bend down on his backhand side on grass the way he used to, and that's why he slices the ball so much, and it explains his results. Or, if you're a Fed fan, "Rafa always sucked in the first week."

Shocked Juicic had so much trouble with Pella but surely it ends in this TB

Iznah answers w/ 4 straight aces to hold 5-5

And Kukushkin completes the age old sad story.

Rafa does suck in first week. He struggled back when he could move a lot better. If the ball bounces fast and low why should Rafa excel on the surface? His huge swings and topspin work against him on a proper grass court. Fact is it is bouncing way higher than it should and that's yielded a million breaks through the first two rounds.

Pella at 5-2 in TB? Wow

 

[kskate2]

Cough drop facing 4 sp's in TB

If you weren't such a blind dullstan you would've realised that it is not a shocker that dull is awful on grass.He has always been awful on it cause his 1D game doesn't match up.

Pella and Cilic going to 5.

Except he always won those matches. So how much was he "sucking" really? Nowadays, he always loses them. Big difference. You think he's still the same grass court player but he just happens to lose all those matches he was winning? This makes zero sense.

 

[DarthFed]

Wow it's going 5

5 Wimbledon finals... what a scrub on grass he is...

 

[kskate2]

Bimelman's dumps serve and now Iznah will serve for it

 

[brokenshoelace]

Just once I'd like to hear a Nadal on grass discussion that actually touches on the nuances in his game and how it's changed (to the worse) over the years, rather than "oh yeah, this is completely normal, he always sucked, but somehow reached 5 consecutive finals."

...or not. Also, I see Tiafoe won! Tsitsipas back on serve. Go, Stefanos.
