Vamos Rafa!! (but i hope fed wins the tourny)




Could you explain this? I find it a bit contradictive


Seriously speaking, congratulations to Rafael Nadal, he showed he's still got an advantage over everyone else on my favourite surface - two long hard fought matches = two wins against world n.1 and future world n.1




lol. yeah that was a little confusing . i was just really excited that rafa beat joke.

my favorite surface is clay too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nadal really is something else on clay, although I think things would have been different if Federer had made that volley on the set point at 5-1 in the first. After that Nadal got into it while Federer became more passive and the match became a bit like an anaconda suffocating the life out of the prey. Nadal's confidence and belief on clay is so high that he doesn't feel that he's ever beaten, while Federer has to have doubts about whether a lead is ever safe against Nadal on clay after losing the first set in Hamburg and the second in Monte Carlo after being up a double break in both. Both Djokovic and Federer were successful against Nadal by being aggressive and going to the net, using angles, trying to get Nadal out wide and also hitting great shots but they couldn't sustain it and to an extent tried to hit through Nadal, which works on hardcourts and indoors but not on clay. Nice curtain raiser for Roland Garros.

Novak Djokovic at the Eurovision Song Contest: .

Personally, I was upset that the Irish turkey lost: . I think Novak & Dustin should do a duet.

That was quite a tough match for Djokovic. It seemed like Novak was a bit nervous in his first match, but also Gremelmayr played really well.

Kuerten will always be remembered for his grunting.

Another interesting day in RG.

Nalbandian and Blake lost. Easy win by Rafa and also by Roger after losing the first set.
They get better and better - as usual.
