Another very impressive win by Rafa. In this form, I think neither Roger nor Novak can stop him.

What should I say. Nothing new really. Rafa gets better and better. But also Novak has improved.

We'll see.

That was hard work or Djokovic. Over 3 hours match time. Unfortunatelly I didn't see anything of the match, but Gulbis must have played really well.

And Rafa - well he plays better and better and every time he needs less time.

:lol: And I thought Almagro would take at least several games. This Nadal is scary.

Yesterday Nadal played in an impressive way. And for impressive I mean impressive for his Roland Garros standards. When he starts hitting winners from his backhand, his opponents are lost. He's made great things even from his "weaker side"..
Djokovic is one of the few which has a possibility to beat him, he showed little bits of it yesterday (esp in the third set)... unfortunately first serve wasn't there.

This year Nadal plays better and Federer plays worse. So tomorrow it's gonna be the same......... but probably we'll see some great tennis

I think Nadal will win Wimbledon this year. He took Federer to five sets last year so he's got a real chance. Got a good chance of doing well at Queen's this week aswell, although he could be tired from the Roland Garros fortnight (unlikely!... but possible!).

Well I hope so. I would love to see Rafa also taking the title in Wimbledon. But honestly I think it will be very tough. Federer is very strong on grass. This is his faourite surface. But you never know. This year everything is possible.

Gasquet played much better than in previous months, his backhand was working. This time he probably didn't feel that he was being totally outplayed by Nalbandian like the last time. ;)
Nice semis there in Queens club, all top 4 seeds made it through. Should be worth watching.

the Nalbandian vs. Gasquet match was a good watch IMO. But the Nadal vs. Karlovic was boring, even though the score makes it seem like an interesting match. I think the longest rally was of 7 or something like that. Typical for Karlovic.

Tell me about it, I watched the majority of the first set and couldnt bare to watch the rest. I dont find Nadal that entertaining anyway depsite his many many talents but put him on the same court as Karlovic and I want be watching thats for sure

Seems like all the top players (Roger, Rafa, Novak) have successfully adapted to the new surface. The SFs will be interesting tomorrow.

Post subject:  Re: ATP Tennis Season 2008

The Queen's semis are pretty interesting, especially Nadal-Roddick as Roddick beat Nadal when they played in Dubai and will want to beat Nadal again to establish himself as a contender for Wimbledon while Nadal will want to maintain his momentum from Roland Garros and not let Roddick get confidence and a winning streak against him.
Nalbandian had great wins at the end of last year, but hasn't had a big win since and will want to re-establish himself while Djokovic will want the win to continue his form this year and a trophy on another surface.
