Fear of double faults, perhaps!
Fear of double faults for a Pro, Nahhhh; not good enough reason IMHO. Probability of winning a challenge is always low

Maria has been rendered useless; this match should be than 2 hours

I'm sorry femzy but you will be sorely dissapointed.
Believe me or not, but this is the first time since the newly born novak domination over nadal, that i have confidence that Nadal will beat nole.
Did you see the form Nadal was in against fed, did you see how nole easily turned to jelly
Look at the number of unforced errors. Sorry but i already put big money on Nadal.
I'll win my bet, and i hope you put your money on nole so you'd be baaaaaaaaaaad broke!!

Vamos Nadal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by Santino1(m): 8:57pm On Jan 28, 2012
Rafa always knows how to overwhelm Roger, but trust me, Nole will be a different ball game entirely
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by binhozie(m): 9:10pm On Jan 28, 2012
You think i didnt know about Rafa being Roger's Nemesis?
I'm talking about what i've seen this year
The 5 set exertion + Nadals new found strong first serve + Nole's (Real or fake) breathing problems = Nadal in 3 or at worst 4!
No more talk from me, just be on this thread tommorow during the game

Vamos Nadal! wink
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by Santino1(m): 9:12pm On Jan 28, 2012

As for thee;BRB
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 9:49am On Jan 29, 2012
Ohhhhh We v started controlling the baseline as usual

I sense the early break
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by binhozie(m): 9:54am On Jan 29, 2012
1-1

Haha! i smell the break in game 3 grin grin
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by binhozie(m): 9:57am On Jan 29, 2012
Ok so it wasnt to be. . .
Although i have to say i'm impressed with Nadals serve!

Yeah the question is whether he can keep up his 1st serve % like this.
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 10:05am On Jan 29, 2012
3rd ace already from Nole. But he is piling errors which I don't like
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by binhozie(m): 10:11am On Jan 29, 2012
Nadal gets the breaaaaaaaaaaaaak!! woohoo!
Goodnight nole. .
3-2 Nadal
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 10:11am On Jan 29, 2012
Nadal has taken the break!
Nole is piling errors on what's supposed to be winners

I know he will respond to this
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 10:22am On Jan 29, 2012
I must confess this is the poorest 1st set I have seen from Novak in this tournament
He is even missing what I assume to be the basics.
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by binhozie(m): 10:26am On Jan 29, 2012
Nadal holds after 5 deuces. . .
I just need him to win this set  sad

4-2 Nadal
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 10:28am On Jan 29, 2012
Novak is playing better now
I ll just take those errors as a slow start.

He needs the forehands now
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 10:40am On Jan 29, 2012
Finally we r back on serve, Nole is gradually getting his game back
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by binhozie(m): 10:45am On Jan 29, 2012
I was never fooled by nole's mounting ue's. . .

femzy:

yeah, hope he keeps it this way
Re: Tennis: Australian Open 2012 by femzy(m): 10:52am On Jan 29, 2012
Nole is still struggling.His first serves are way to under normal.
He might just lose this set if he keeps playing this way.
