Can't believe I've wasted an hour of my life watching this glorified practice session. Not that I expected Raonic to trouble him much at all but zzzzzz. Seriously, Ljubicic should hop off his chair and come down and play instead. Guarantee he'd do a whole lot better.

Rafa to serve for it. I think there was a chance that this match could have been a little more interesting, but only a small one.

Rafa looking absolutely formidable.

He looks determined... :p

His play is formidable. His look is determined. Quite correct my friend.

Watching the plodding Raonic reminds me of a draft horse in heavy harness. Who could ever think he moves better than Del Potro?

It's like watching Serena v Sharapova. As one sided as it gets.

So proud of Rafa. Indian Wells wasn't a fluke!

Nadal's not far behind Murray points wise now with this win. Still looking forward to seeing them play each other again. Way more entertaining than Djokovic v Murray.

Hmmm...if I'd paid big bucks for Final Sunday and had to sit through a bagel on the women's side and a 1st Round Match on the men's side I'd be pretty upset. Maybe there's a redemptive Doubles Match that they can enjoy ;)
