Kohlschreiber/Robredo quarters?

Vamos, Rafa. Nadal's pissed after losing that tie breaker.

 

[shogun]

The humidity is no joke tonight. People look like they just ran a marathon. I live 30 minutes away and i'm sweating watching this on tv.

 

[champcruthik]

Rafa is gonna run through Nike's entire stock.

 

[thadangerousmind]

LOL I know right? They said he's changing shirts at the changeover again. He's on shirt 3 in the 2nd set.

 

[champcruthik]

Rafa elevating his game to the next level.

Kohlschreiber is tough. Mentally tough. Unflappable.

 

[champcruthik]

Raonic better than Tsonga?

 

[champcruthik]

Aces and double faults.

Better take the fifth, Milos.

 

[champcruthik]

Kohlschreiber just wasted a golden chance to break Rafa's serve early to start the fourth and take control of the set.

 

[shogun]

Was Tsonga at this tournament? Wondering where he was.

 

[champcruthik]

Knee injury.

Also recent split from Coach Rasheed.

 

[philosophiae dr]

Rafa. 

 

[champcruthik]

Robredo in the quarters will be an easier match than Kohlschreiber in the round of 16.

Valiant effort from the German. Missed break in the opening game of the fourth set cost him. Misplaced overhead volley. Typically easy shot for a pro.

Sad day

And always liked Kohlschreiber's game. Crafty dude but his lack of physical gifts will probably prevent him from ever reaching the next level

 

[Sinner]

Wow. What!? 

In straight-sets!?

 

[darthska]

Federer is no longer betterer :\

 

[firepower]

wow i was looking forward to federer and nadal

Yeah, thought it was going to happen this time.

So far I've been on the fence between the critics who've been saying he's finished and the ones who believe he can still summon some magic from somewhere to give us one last grand hurrah ...but I think it's getting clearer and clearer to see he's officially washed up. Sad to see.

 

[Sinner]

Spoiler

Frogger...

 

[scuse7]

Damn Fed, straight sets.

Youzhny vs Hewitt should be a good match. Hewitt has his number and usually can get in his head.

 

[shogun]

Ana battling out there. Good to see.

 

[quell]

Great start for Youhz. Think he could give Joker fits

 

[Sinner]

Youz could give Youz fits...

 

[quell]

Damn. Impressive last 7 games for Hewitt going 6-1. Just wow

 

[shogun]

I like how people still forget that Chinese players have their last names first. Interviewers still addressing her as Li instead of Na. Hope her and her nice thighs win today.

 

[Sinner]

I know! Networks, stop calling her Na Li! 

EDIT 

So long...

 

[sea manup]
