2018 Wimbledon Quarterfinals: Nadal vs. Del Potro

[atttomole]

Fedal in serious trouble now. Tb wins the third set.

Nadal looks nervous. It’s just not his surface, I think we have to acknowledge that. It’s amazing he won twice here and reached another final if you think of it.

That's what I have been saying all along. He gets nervous particularly against good servers, while his serve is not that good, which puts a lot of pressure on him.

Well guess I'll be throwing my support behind Nole...cause I'm not a fan of any of these trees left in the tourney.

The Brits call them comfort breaks. Haha

Nadal can scrap. Forced Del Po to win the point twice.

There's no gifting going on. DP is bossing the baseline as he should. I think he has confidence especially after seeing Fed get knocked out.

Please! I'm in danger of losing my reputation of being Little Miss Prim & Proper here as you're really tempting me with all this toilet humour. Lol.

Yeah his path is a bit easier now.
Doesn't have to defeat big 3 in a row.

Tb’s wrist is hurting again, ai...

We're not as polite as you. We just call them toilet breaks. Haha!

You think they know what's happened?

 

[Denis]

Huh what’s up with Nadal? Never seen that before, shouting at himself.

 

[El Dude]

Well, I think he really, really wants this tournament. Del Potro can be a very frustrating player.

 

[golds girl]

Is the grass more slippery than usual?

 

[Denis]

Nadal breaks. I’m good with a fifth set, a long one preferably.

 

[DarthFed]

DP will choke this, no worries.

 

[El Dude]

Not looking good for del Potro. Get's broken and might be hurting. I have a hard time seeing him winning a 5th set vs Nadal.

 

[Denis]

He isn’t playing Simon that’s for sure.

 

[Denis]

Nadal is surprisingly aggressive coming into the net on serve.

For sure. CC shows the scoreboard from other courts during the changeovers
