Seems to be the same lines people for every single match. One of 'em's a Cupid - she can call me "out" any time! :heart: :smooch

Are we talking short blond hair?;)

Yeah, she's blonde :heart: ;)

If he an keep this up, he'll win. I'd love to see him break del Potro again and take this first set, as a three-set match gives more opportunity for him to lose it again.

He's playing really well now. Even if he loses this set, he'll be hard for del Potro to beat if he can keep this up.

I wonder if Mirka secretly hates watching Roger play. What stress she must feel.

Its interesting watching del Potro. Before this game he looked like he was on auto pilot, like he was facing a player outside the top 10. Now he has that focus that reminds me of how he looks when he plays Novak - always looking exhausted but somehow making amazing shots.

I always feel sorry for Mirka. She's like Nadal's dad - the suffering is explicit in the face.

Good match so far, in spots. I hope it's a long classic. An epic. And very long. Very very very long....

Probably, it's got to be tough dealing with him after some of the really bad losses he never used to have.

Even though Roger lost the first set, I approve of the way he played.
He really played well. Also, in stats he is doing better than Del Potro on
every aspect (except what counts).

But that would bore Nadal and he might want to get up and get a sandwich and you know, there goes the other finger, so it is better this match is short...;)
