Roland Garros / French Open 2024 [Men] - Grand Slam

[MargaretMcAleer]

Zed’s bh dtl for 4-3 was beautiful. He can tend to be feckless and boring, but he also has his moments.

Maybe they should go in the one dimensional highlight reel

Man, those cross-court lasers from Zverev.

As for "gonads," this is one way to develop them - close out vs. Rafa on his home turf. If Zverev finishes him off, I think his chances of winning Roland Garros become legitimate.

Poor Rafa - he's playing his heart out there. What a champion.

 

[El Dude]

Oh, and @Fiero425 wins Dink of the Week for trashing Rafa at this moment. Dude, really?

Along with those 2 beautiful backhand cross courts to go 5-3 and the one on Ralf’s serve just now.

You would expect no less from him would you?

3 okay thats enough lol!

Rafa Nadal. 19 years. 14 wins. Some incredible throwback moments in the match, vintage Rafa.

The Italians are about to dominate men's tennis. Another unseeded Italian takes down Fils. This leaves Tsitsipas and Rublev as the only seeds in their section, but you just know that they'll find a way to blow this.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Its Over! I have no words!

 

[El Dude]

Class from Zverev, and from Rafa as always.

Trash? You don't want me to go all out! I can't stand the guy, but I've been mild in comparison to what I could be saying about this poseur!

Sorry Dude. Still not a believer. I need to see him get to the SF, F and really show up. Not drop a match from 2 sets up.

Nads too passive and faces 3 bp's

Yes ma'am, I don't know why he holds back but he's Rafa . Much and respect for the competitor .Vamos Nadal 4ever

Arnaldi has been steadily advancing the ATP ranks. While Fils is talented, Matteo Arnaldi is big on offense and overall improving all the time.

I meant the 14th time champion has lost and has probably played his last match in his own back yard

I watched that match with Matteo v Fils, he played great controlled tennis today for once

 

[kskate2]

He retired?

no. he left the door open saying he may come back

You mean Sascha kissing Rafa's arse as he kicked him down the stairs & out of the tournament hopefully his last match in RG's? Playing dubs? IDK!

 

[the AntiPusher]

Nads can't consolidate the breaks. He could be out in straights unless Zed's level completely falls off

I have only seen Sacha Zverev play better only once against Sinner at the USO last year. Not too many people are going to be able to hang with him if he stays at this level..
