Break is coming, right at time. Diego is shaking.

Nadal finds a way to win 3rd. Nothing unusual, life is back to normal now.

The break at 4-4 was inevitable really. I haven't bet for years but, if I was and doing live betting today, I'd have whacked a load of cash on Nadal to break there. Sadly could see it a mile off.

In his previous match he fist pumped on DF. :face-vomiting:
It's one of the main reason I've never liked or respected Nadal! He doesn't respect the game or his opponent doing that juvenile gamesmanship crap! He's still a "man-child" pretending to be an adult! He won't change! It's what made him the player he is today so forget about him being anywhere as classy as Fedovic! :facepalm:

Sad to see it end like this but had a feeling the set would end this way.

Maybe you should start betting again on matches....
Yup, I miss it and it's easy money when you watch a lot of tennis. Just have to have the willpower to cash out and not lose it.

Is Djoke’s wrist injured? He was having it looked at during practice just now

Fiero, you like eggplant, I like butternut squash. While I do like Novak, his racket breaking and ball slamming, that's like eggplant to me. I get it, he needs it to rile himself up, but again, depends on our criteria of "juvenile gamesmanship crap".

That is not the same as "showing up" an opponent! Come on! Applauding double faults or exhalting himself after winning a long point off a miss-hit or error by his opponent just infuriates me! To this day he still acts as if he's never "been there;" falling on the ground so happy he won a 1st round match against some qualifier just stinks! What a fk'n idiot! He also better get back to the doctor to help that failing "comb-over!" It's rather thin when he sweats like a pig! :yawningface:

Oh cmon, you know what time it is. It's called mind games and they all do it. From mass ball bouncing, taking too much time, fist pumps, shouting cmon, allez, etc., loud grunting, picking shorts, cleaning lines constantly, bathroom breaks, playing possum, unexplained MTOs and the like to gain any kind of advantage and play the game at their pace. Even your beloved, so get over it and try again please. :yawningface:
