Roland Garros, Paris, France, ATP GRAND SLAM (Paris Sidewalk Cafe Discussions II)

[isabelle]

Gulbis won....(I'm not joking!!) happy to see this nuts guy play well again

 

[DarthFed]

^ Same here. He's been absent for far too long and this was the scene of his only decent slam run when he made the semis in 2014.

 

[isabelle]

Nadal is cruising for the moment

 

[britbox]

Nadal gets the bagel.

 

[britbox]

Tomic drops the second set to Borna 6-2. Might be one way traffic here on in. He's hardly noted for gutting out tough wins.

 

[isabelle]

Darcis plays well and bothers Nole, it's a good match

 

[britbox]

Cuevas books his place in the next round 7/6 6/3 7/6. He's had a pretty poor European swing after looking good at the beginning of the year in South America.

 

[britbox]

Pretend Brit Bedene takes out Carreno Busta in 5.

 

[britbox]

Berdych through in 4. Navigates a potential banana skin in Jaziri.

 

[DarthFed]

Novak had a tough set against one of my favorites...oh the memories

 

[britbox]

Nole turning the screw on Darcis.

 

[britbox]

Novak had a tough set against one of my favorites...oh the memories

Lol.

 

[DarthFed]

Darcis shall always have 2013 Wimbledon

 

[britbox]

Nadal moves on without too much trouble... Djokovic two sets up.... Looks like business as usual.

 

[DarthFed]

Not much to worry about for Djokovic but he is struggling a lot more than expected vs. Darcis.

 

[DarthFed]

Tsonga and Baghs is an interesting matchup and the winner gets Gulbis. Kind of a fun section of the draw and I do think the hometown Ali will pull through it and possibly with ease.

 

[Moxie]

Looks like he gave the break back in the 3rd. Your buddy Darcis is hanging in there, Twisted.

 

[britbox]

Tie break between Bernie and Borna is a good scrap. 6-6. Bernie missed a break point chance... not really his fault, Coric just played a good point.

 

[britbox]

Match Point Coric.

 

[britbox]

Bye Bye Bernie Coric wins in 4. Not a bad match from the parts I saw. Bernie didn't lie down and fought to the end.
