Rafa wins a game. :eek:

What the feck is going on with Soderling? I just don't get his game that troubles Nadal so much. I think Nadal just hate him and the emotions from the hates hurt him against Soderling. I think it was on this surface that Soderling first beat him right?
 
Federer played pretty poorly today. The forehand is not the same, mentally he's not the same. All in all playing way off his standard.
 
Nadal's beginning to get into the game now. Surely he won't be this shit in the second set?

Well anyway Sod's going to go through today. Nadal can't defend the way he did on clay.

So a Murray Sod semi? And Birdich Choker. Should be good for tennis if we have a new winner.

Just hope it's not Murray
 
I was avoiding this place for the last few days, but fair fecks to Berdych. He was absolutely brilliant. Some days the bloke on the other side is too good. He needs to avoid the feeling of anti-climax now, and go on and play the same way against Djokovic.

Federer was too passive, and he never looked like he was anywhere near his best.

Now that he's out and Nadal is struggling, IF Rafa goes out I think Murray will win the whole thing. C'monnnnn Andyyyyyyyyyyy.

The day he wins another slam i think he'll retire.

He's not won anything since Aussie and just reached 2 finals in any tournament.

He's had an astonishing career but it's going down now.
 
Ah disappointed with that, Federer didn't deserve it though. This year for Murray is what 2001 was for Henman, will he bottle it though?

Roddick must be kicking himself more then ever, I would have loved to see him win it.

Birdich will hammer Jokeovich. He's the ultimate choker. Soderling/Murray Birdich re match in the final?

Well he's done everything there is to do. And he has two little kids now. Must be impossible to have the same intensity and motivation.

Hasn't he said he will stay on till the Olympics, that could be when he bows out though.

Don't think so. He's enjoying the game and wants to play at the 2012 olympics badly. He won't retire or sorts. His body is fine, The problem is really mental, not physical. Yes he lost a step or two but the worrying part is that he doesn't seem confident in his shots. He doesn't seem to rip those forehands as he used to be.

I don't see Djoko choking against a lower ranked player to be honest.

I reckon Murray vs Djokovic final

2012? No way. I can't see him go on that long, especially the way he's struggling now. He's starting to lose that invincible aura and we saw that in the 1st 2 rounds this year

So did Nadal at 09 RG. He hasn't beaten top 8 player off clay since an year now, should he retire as well?:lol:
 
Ah at 0-15 I thought Nadal had a chance but set poitns now.
If only Nadal had started the set even 10% better than the shit he played for the first 5 games

Nadal's 24 , Fed is what about to turn 28/29?

He's won everything there is to win. His record will probably be never broken. I am not sure how much motivation and for how long he will have it.
 
Good god another shocking start by Nadal to the 2nd set. 0-30 down. Lose this game and it's all over for him I feel
 
What is the win lose record between Soderling and Nadal?
Soderling's game really bother Nadal. His cryptonite?

Well I remmember them playing 4 times. Nadal won an absolute marathon in 5 sets at Wimby in 07, Nadal beat him 6-0 6-1 on clay last year, lost to him at RG last year and beat him this year in the final.

He played him at Abu Dhabi on the hard courts in an exhibition tournament this year and beat him.

Nadal really finds Sod's big serve too hot to handle.
