Just curious - would Agut who I don't believe has ever taken a set off Fed, and Gasquet, who hasn't taken a set off Fed in 6 years, be what you consider "tougher opponents" for Fed?

Carol was correct, a 53 mins final..i say she was spot on from what I read on line, Fed dismantled Sasha..what else do you want her to do rank the players by their grasscourt experience

Who have you considered a tough opponent for Roger in Halle?

Who do you consider was tough for Rafa at RG? See how silly this is? Maybe the case for both is they're far superior to any others on that surface.

Oh please, don't compare RG with Halle, that's ridiculous and out of context

Suit yourself. Barcelona then.

Fed wins his 9th in Halle. Now they're talking about La Décima next year. I think it should be "Der Zehnte." See you next year!

This is where you go from the sublime to the ridiculous..rafa had to defeat Stan who has won more grand slam titles the past 2-3 years other than Novak..come on Front, admit your transgressions and errors by apologizes to Carol and move on..there's no shame in admitting Carol is correct..she maybe farther to the political tennis left than your views,but she does know her tennis, Nuff Said

The biggest threat that Roger had at Halle was that Haas was on the opposite,side of the draw

Not a hope, AP. You call moaning about Federer and fans all the time knowing stuff about tennis? My point was correct as Stan played like crap in the final. Likewise Zverev can do a lot better but was poor. Roger was also very good today. Stan gave Rafa less trouble than Thiem who was shite that day. Both guys are good on paper but played very bad matches. Hence me correctly saying who challenged him at RG.

According to the experts and tennis players which has a lot more knowledge than you and me Rafael Nadal played in RG the perfect game against everyone consequently Wawrinka had not any clue to defend and to attack due to the way that his opponent was playing . To say that Stan played like crap is the most unacceptable and ridiculous thing that you can say even that you use to say very often and comparing him with Zverev has played today ( definitely like crap) is even more ridiculous. And I'm going more far , today Roger would have lost vs Lopez for sure!

Nope..it was Rafa who had so many levels to elevate his tennis game on clay over any player alive with maybe the lone exception of Novak. He would have dusted him also. However you want to diminish Rafa accomplishments by implying Stan was somewhat derelict in that clay court final which is cheap of you. You didn't give Lopez a chance today but I told you that Lopez has the,goods on grass. To be a great person or a good poster, you have to learn to humble yourself at times.

Show us these experts please and spare us the "unacceptable" nonsense. You know well Stan played badly, you're just too damn annoying to admit it. Roger losing to Lopez is the most hilarious thing I've read in ages. Go annoy someone who cares. Also, I said Zverev played badly today. Duh. Whenever a nobody beats Nadal you always claim they'd also have beaten Federer as they played the most amazing anyone has ever played. It gets old. There are such things as match ups, you know. Davydenko says hi btw.

One less guy to worry about in Wimbledon now. That bad loss will do nothing for Zverev's confidence.

I give you credit..you never bought into the whole notion that Sasha had a chance to win the title.

When did I ever not give Lopez a chance v Cilic? Did you even read my posts? As usual, in the same way as Carol, it seems the answer is no. "Sure, Lopez is a fine grass court player no doubt about it. Cilic has put up a lot more of a fight against the top players like Djokovic and Federer at Wimbledon though and just needs to channel that version of himself and he'll win." To be a good or great poster you have to actually read what people type.

I didn't think he'd win but I thought he'd win more than 4 games, yes.

It's clear that you are too damn annoying to admit that Nadal played a perfect game as a Master that he is on clay so please stop to talk nonsense, you are spitting high and you know what happens.....

I read your posts and that's why I respond to you. Cilic today wanted to win yes or yes, and he put the same fight that he did against Novak and Federer but the best player won. To be a great poster you should be more fair and to have more logic

You selectively forgot to post your prior post whereas you said Cilic should eat Lopez for breakfast :hunting:

Nothing selective about it but you clearly didn't read this one properly either.

"Cilic should eat him for breakfast. Whether he will or not is another thing though."
