5-2 Nadkamke LOL!

I heard that. Hilarious blooper for the first day of the new year. :laydownlaughing

 

[Front242]

Nasty netcord but he was the far better player that set and well deserved.

 

[kskate2]

Kamke takes the breaker 7-3 on a bouncy netcord. Onto the final frame.

Meanwhile, Ernie is up 3-0 in the decider over Kubot.

 

[Front242]

Kind of Federer-esque forehands there. Nice.

 

[Front242]

Great crosscourt backhand from Kamke. One of his best shots but his forehand is also very potent.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Kind of Federer-esque forehands there. Nice.

The kind that ends up in the tramlines or the kind that goes for a clean winner?

 

[Front242]

Fantastic FH by Kamke.

 

[brokenshoelace]

HOLY $HIT! Nadal just hit an ace up the T! My god the luck...

Haha The latter thankfully. Best display of the former that I can remember was RG semi against Djokovic in 2012. He (Federer) was missing by MILES.

[Front242]

Just great play there by Kamke.

 

[kskate2]

Thank goodness you two are here to keep things lively just when it was getting dull.

 

[Front242]

Outstanding by Kamke.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Rafa floating his slice a bit too much. Kamke playing with admirable aggression on key points. His shot selection and point construction are spot on.

Livescorehunter wasn't actually showing any tennis streams for me at all but clicked on the streamhunter link there and thankfully this showed up. Entertaining match. Will probably watch Brands and Ferrer next too if it's a good match.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Nadal finally realizing he's allowed to attack the second serve.

 

[Front242]

WOW! Nice.
