It's a shame that Nish II is injured, I like he more that Nishi

I am never a fan of talking down players, using terms mediocre, limited talent and etc which show a lack of respect for those who are actually one in a million level of talent.....a top 30 player is more than that, as there are definitely more than 30 million people who play the sport. Instead of talking low of Kohli, one should praise Nadal for how amazing he is always there fighting until the last point, even though he's been through so much and isn't in great form.

Not always, not always he is fighting until the last point

Rafa joins the ATP's 1000 matches club after his win against Phil K and has the highest % in it.

And what a coincidence that both also played the Rafa's 500 match and he won too

DYJR continues to win..but as always no love from this board..

The Donald usually plays well at the US based tourneys. He doesn't fair so well on the road. That being said, he's a little like the boy who cried wolf. He'll make a little run here or there and then drop off the planet for the rest of the season. I think people are a little tired of his false starts. And to address another point of contention, it was talked about heavily at the time when he beat Muzz, but then he didn't really do much after that so it was another false start.

More importantly he badmouthed USTA after all the help they provided to him.

I think if I had to deal with Pat McEnroe I would've bad mouthed the USTA too

Helluva match between del Potro and Federer. Stop what you´re doing and watch it.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

del potro getting in a few 2hbh..he did a few v haase the other day too.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

not sure that delpotro slicing and net rushing fed on a slow hc is the best tactic.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

nuclear delpotro forehamd missile incoming.

 

[Obsi]

He still has upside and knocked off the number eight ranked player.

So what? Just few weeks ago Thiem lost to Pierre-Hugues Herbert.

I've been impressed with the DP backhand, it's held its own. He's come over it more than I've seen in a long time. Fed is playing damn well aside from his serve, keeping DP off balance. The big man hasn't been able to wind up the forehand too often.

 

[the AntiPusher]

First blood Fed

is there a score anyone would care to share?

 

[Moxie]

Lol! I had to give a like to it. I was going to post exactly the same thing. I'm mandingo enough to ignore who posted it

I was going to like it, but I figured someone hacked his computer. :lulz2:

6-3 Fed, 1-1 in the 2nd.

 

[shawnbm]

I am recording the match and look forward to seeing it in light of the comments about the quality of the match. I hope it's continuing in the second set!!!

 

[DarthFed]

DP got both wrists taped on the changeover. Hope everything is alright.

So what? Just few weeks ago Thiem lost to Pierre-Hugues Herbert.

Yes, but he's won a lot in the past twelve months and is a challenge for anyone. I thought Dominic played less than his usual in his loss to Borna the other day, but Coric was stellar all match long. He took it to Thiem and deserved the victory. I was seated right behind the baseline and you could feel the energy from Borna, whereas Dominic seemed flat from the get go.

Oh Lord not again
