Monte Carlo Rolex Masters 2017, Monaco, ATP Masters 1000

[Front242]

Very good point..Carol..Roger had a choice to replay the point. Rafa didnt see the spot regardless of what this misguided tosser Front says. Rafa is as fair as guys can be.. Front is the only one making a cow about it because it's how Front is built. He responds to one call which I admit changed the direction of the match but it wasn't match point or as critical as when that drunk lady yelled out at Miami. Those two events are mutually exclusive. Look at what the other posters say not some bias fan.

LOL, sure I'm the only one making "a cow" about it. Do some reading on other sites such as tennis.com and Youtube. I never said it was match point but Nadal was getting soundly beaten till that point so it was very much a huge issue. Goffin lost the plot after it and reading the nonsense that Nadal is back to is best is puke making. He and his fans know that is very much not the case. Nadal is not fair or sporting btw in case you've forgotten him bumping into Rosol like a thug.

Rafa is a competitor, Millions of fans admire his competitive spirit even Federer. Rosol has only a few fans including you and whomever gave birth to him. Ask Murray, Federer, Djokovic whom they respect Rafa or your beloved Rosol.

Again, another pointless post. Who said Rosol was my "beloved" ? I said Nadal was unsporting in that match which he was. Btw, millions like Justin Bieber too but that doesn't mean he's good.

^ It was both. But it was 100% Nadal they were booing after he came back on court at the start of set 2.

Nope..it's was jeering the umpire. Front, since you know some damn much , You say Rafa should go over to the umpire and say I clearly saw the mark although you were 35 feet closer. Give me a break ..Front..

No, I'm not saying that, I'm saying he knew damn well it was long regardless of not being able to see the mark.

Front..Have you ever played the game..every time I serve or hit a winner I think they're in. How in the heck ( again it's not my choice of words) could he see the spot..there were numerous other times Rafa circled the mark ..again Rafa didn't see the mark, the linesman called it out but the umpire ruled it was good. He left his chair to go check the mark..what you expect Rafa to do, yelled across the court, "Cedric, that's the wrong freaking mark".. if that call happened on Rafa's side of the court your bit#@ing would have some validity..

I am no fan of Justin Bieber, as a matter of fact..i have more respect for Rosol then I do JB so that tells you about the low opinion I have of your beloved. Fed likes and respects Rafa, what's your issue..Did someone you once admired fancy a chance meeting with Rafa instead of yourself :laydownlaughing

 

[Carol]

Could well have decided the set though. 4-2 up for Goffin versus 4-3 and then broken and back on serve. Cedric should be banned for a few matches till he gets glasses.

Rafa clearly went to beat him anyway, it was a bad call starting the first set which didn't have to do anything with the result, it wasn't in the last point of the match

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Rafa will win the MC trophy, which has so much history, without even facing a top ten opponent. :cover

It was Kyrgios a top ten? hey, it's not all about the 'names' but about how every player is playing and obviously some of the non top ten are playing better than the top

 

[bajana]

Then we can say the same thing about Federer when a drunk woman yelled "out" a good ball of Kyrgios and he didn't say anything and getting the point, is it not to CHEAT?

Uh duh, the same thing happened to him in that match which you've conveniently chosen to forget. Roger lost a point due to crowd disruption too so that's called evens.

Is Carol35 saying Roger cheated on himself by not asking the umpire to replay the point he lost because someone shouted "Out" on a Kyrgios ball --- and Roger lost the point. Or is it selective memory on Carol's part?:cover

Thanks Carol ..Just as I been telling Front..Rafa is on the other side of the court.. he wasn't able to do anything.. Listen to Goffin..although Rafa knew the ball was long in his opinion, Goffin says Rafa couldn't do anything and he is one of the fairest player on the tour.. case closed Nuff Said Front ..push on p.a.l.

Yes he could. If he knows the ball is long (and he most certainly did) and doesn't concede the point I think you know what that makes him. Push on yourself, pal.

[Ricardo]

pity Goffin started well and was robbed of his service game as he was trying to extend his lead, being a break up. Not that i think he would've won the match but the umpire making such horrendous over-rule should be banned from umpiring. It's one thing to make a 'mistake' but that is really something else, you don't overrule unless it is clearly wrong and in that case Nadal missed his shot almost a foot long....how did he get to be an umpire in the first place?

He DIDN'T because he couldn't see it at that distance and anyway that was the judge decision and not him and besides that THEY REPEATED the point, so what is you point?

You like to insist ? then me too, why your Roger didn't concede that point when it was very clear that the Kyrgios ball was good. maybe because it was in a very critic time almost at the end of the match and NOT at the beginning of the first set?

He is referring to the similar incident that happened earlier, in which Federer lost the point.

Ugh. This is getting tiresome. Honestly I think it would be very hard for Nadal to interfere in that call, he was probably in the worst possible position to be sure of anything. He could well suspect it was out -- but hardly be sure of it.

But it was an important point for sure -- anyway I don´t think he is at fault here. About the Federer point, as many others pointed out -- it was the second incident of the night, and maybe the match would be already over if the first had not happened.

Just in..Vilas played a exhibition clay tournament, his titles is 50 :laydownlaughing...keep tryin Rafa

Very well put mrzz in regards to yesterday's match. It's amazing how the majority of the posters on this board are fair and pretty intelligent, then there's Front :devil...Front is that guy when you are in the men's locker room shower thats wants to come up and initiate a useless conversation while you are soaping and tryin to cleanse your package.:nono

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Congrats to Rafa. To win 10 is a big deal no matter what tournament.

 

[Haelfix]

Pretty amazing that the best two players in the world are Federer and Nadal. A decade after their primes. I think you'd have to go back a long way in tennis history to find such older players performing at such a high level relative to the rest of the tour. Laver/Rosewall etc
