Rafa takes the first. Seems like Nick has a knee issue, according to commies.

Kyrgios will always play great shots. It's how he builds on them is the question. So far, down a break.
Clearly, Rafa is too good for him. Kyrgios is a showman.

That was a helluva wacky point, won by Nick.

OK, into a 3rd, and Kyrgios is getting seen by the trainer. Clearly, Rafa is not the only one who ever needs a MTO. ;)

Not sure what just happened, but Nadal frustrated with the crowd, and Kyrgios kind of backs him up, and gets the warning for the verbal obscenity.

For a guy who pretends that he doesn't care about tennis, he laid it on the line for that point.

Underhanded serve and he gets Rafa on it. The commies called that one an hour ago. So many chances to break for Rafa there gone begging. 1/10 on BPs.

Rafa has lost too many opportunities, definitely it's not because his game but his head which is even worse same like in the AO final.

He also needs to pressure Nick's serve more. Move in on the 2nd, man!

If it comes down to TB or serve, Rafa is going to lose this match, even though he's been the better player.

Kyrgios cares a lot more than he shows what he has done in the first set acting like he was injured is what always does when he is losing, he is a real idiot!

I don't know how many times Rafa has been 0-40 when Kyrgios was serving and he couldn't broke, bah!

He's not an idiot. He's talented, and really hard to pigeon-hole.

I don't like Rafa's chances in this TB.

The ever-casual Kyrgios on MP down.

MPs blown, and Kyrgios gets it. Was the crowd booing Nick? That I don't get.
