Bags takes the TB 7-4
He just needed that refreshing fried cheese snack. Now he's a new man. Khachanov better watch out...guess he didn't have a chance to see the Cilic match.

Can't blame him for loving the fried cheese.

What's wrong with Paire? And I agree with GSM...not sure you're counting on Schwartzman on grass. Vesely is likely more dangerous, anyway.

He's a basketcase. I don't mind him but I'd rather see a young gun progress in the draw and in general. I'm still waiting for someone below 30 to show us anything.

The Saganaki isn't the only thing on fire, here comes the fierce Marcos B-)

That will be done by Alex in 3R. ;)

OK, I hear that, but I haven't given up on him yet. Khachanov, speaking of, is another one you can't rely on, though I guess he's still pretty young.

You haven't given up on Paire? In what way do you think he will feature?

I watched Rafa's match completely. Even though he won in straight sets, it was very clear that he is struggling quite a bit. But, he has the fight in him, even if not the game. He is ready for taking, but only by someone with courage and big heart, apart from game.

Trivia Question: Rafa has lost only one match after leading by two sets to 0. Can you name that match? If you are not a Nadalite, you get bonus points.

Fog at 2015 USO. A glorious night.

And Fed at 2005 Miami. Did you only mean at majors?

You have to specify if you mean GS or not. Because he did lose another match after being up 2 sets to love and it wasn't a GS match

In Majors, then Darth gets the prize. Wait a minute, when Verdy beat him, was he up 2 sets there too?

I expect to see him solid up to his abilities and not so on again-off again. Not a major winner, but solid threat.
