Phelps looks high. Homie's puffin in the VIP

That first set took a lot of energy for Monfils to finish. Rafa got his number

Monfils Incredibly lucky Rafa didnt take advantage of that bad shot

 

[sirius lee handsome]

They're just pounding the ball tonight. Crazy

 

[prettyplaya]

This is not Monfils I know.

 

[tsamshox]

VAMOS!

 

[illmaticsoulchild]

Nadal's endurance and resolve never ceases to amaze me. What a match so far. If Rafa wins this set (which it looks like), he's got to be the favoriteto win the match.

 

[gunna get it]

whewwwwwwwwwww what a backhand

Monfils, lets get it together

oww down the line pass too

 

[tsamshox]

Sick winners by Monfils....

 

[gunna get it]

couldnt get it back that gonna cost him the match.

 

[proshares]

^ His lack of stamina and endurance is going to cost him this match. First set and for the first half the second set, he was stretching out after every balltrying to put it where Nadal was not. Now it just seems like he's just trying to get it back across hoping for Rafa to make an error. If Nadal is smart,he'll run Monfils from left to right on each point and break him down.

monfils is exhausted

 

[cquan05]

It's a wrap for Monfils.........Rafa's on his game right now

 

[sirius lee handsome]

Monfils is exhausted

just called for his trainer too. Bad news

 

[tsamshox]

Rafa's fitness > Monfils fitness

Curtains closing for Monfils?

 

[proshares]

McEnroe had to sneak that comment in there before the break.

"We'll find out what's wrong with Monfils down two breaks after the break."
"That's what's wrong with him."

 

[tsamshox]

Wrap this up Nadal.....Monfils is DONE.

 

[da doc03]

monfils still fighting

 

[tsamshox]

ayo some dude just tried to kiss Nadal

If form holds, looks like we may be in for a Djokovic v. Federer and Rafa vs. Delpo semifinal.

Looking to the next match however, even though Gonzo has good firepower, he's too erratic and Rafa's consistency should be enough to hold him off.

Can't wait for Super Saturday and Championship Sunday..
