Simon may be perfect for Rafa to get his rhythm and timing . However not good if it goes 3 sets
I'm glad that he didn't go to 3 sets, otherwise he would leave the court today in an ambulance :cover

Rafa plays Belucci next. I wonder who the crowd will be cheering for :snicker

The Fog rolled in during the 2nd set and swept Murray's tennis game out to sea. 3rd set now

Nadal is 5-0 against Bellucci but they have not met on a hardcourt.

It should be an interesting match just because it is the Olympics and it is 2 out of 3 format so Bellucci has a great chance to beat Nadal.

I think Rafa will beat the brakes off Bellucci especially is Murray can't get his game out of this fog.

The good thing is that Rafa doesn't care too much about to whom the crowd goes and of course he will understand why they will cheer for Bellucci but the win or lose will be in Rafa's racket (or his body because how tired he could be? :huh:

Rafa and his BF Lopez have reached the finals. This means, they will get at least a silver medal. :clap

They will play the Romanians Tecau and Mergea in the final. Should be possible to win although not a cake walk. Rafa is seeded 6 and the Romanians are seeded 5.

Americans (Sock and Johnson) will play the Canadians (Nestor and Pops) for the bronze medal.

LOL why not? he is very excited and that's what the soccer players are doing many times
I'm exhausted looking what Rafa is doing, I know it's a dream for Garbine to play with Rafa but I hope they lose this first match

Well, they were kissing each other after that big win. Maybe because I'm from Spain and I've seen those reactions in the sport (more in soccer) since I was a little girl I don't see anything wrong on it, on the contrary it's funny to see what exciting they can be after a win and how much it suppose for them that they can dance and to walk with the arms over their shoulders like great friends and athletes they are
