How is Rafa looking guys/gals?

Very good, for playing a guy who gives little rhythm. Good strategy on serve, which is to keep his first serve pct. high. If you're only able to look at scores and stats, look at his serve numbers.

Rafa looks like an idiot playing so far back giving Opelka free reign of the court with those weak returns from the backdrop!

Just think Blackjack whenever you think about Nadal.. the number 21 will help while you are watching history

How is Rafa looking guys/gals?

Average! Reilly is accommodating as #ell with a ton of UFE's & is pressing! It's one ugly match from what little I'm seeing of it!

uh oh bP

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

uh oh bP

Hmmmmmmmmmm.that was not in the script today Rafa

 

[Moxie]

Sloppy service game from Rafa cost him, but Opelka not having an easy time of his consolidator.

 

[Moxie]

Rafa has gone way off the boil right now.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Wake Up Rafa...phew he finally held serve
Lets Break back I have to go out soon

Did you see the serve that Riley served at BP, it was wind aided.. Last time I seen a wind gush like that was RG a few years ago.. Its like playing in the early Spring on by lake Michigan.. a pure nightmare for the returner

Actually, I think it had loads of spin on it, if it's the one I'm thinking of.

[MargaretMcAleer]

I wish the dude would stop serving aces!

 

[the AntiPusher]

these guys are reading our posts now they are talking about serving from a tree.. copycats

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Come on Rafa how many BPs do you need?

 

[Moxie]

Back on serve!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Praise the Lord....Rafa broke back now dont do another sloppy service game and hold

Okay I have to go I will check the scores,maybe I should take my lucky rosary beads with me just in case

Isnt AP brilliant at being tennis version of Nostradamus..jajaja .. just kidding even a dead clock can tell the correct time twice a day

Amazing fight to come back in the second set. Hopefully Nadal will finish this match in two sets because he will need all his energy tomorrow against the well rested Kyrgios.
