I’m quite torn on this. On one hand, I want there to be a new slam champion. On my left hand (Naturally), I would love to see Nadal get closer to that magical maestro’s record. I think either way I’ll be happy, […]

Wait, am I being dumb? Curse of the closed roof?

Congrats Rafa fans! Here’s hoping for a great final! Rafa’s last few games in that third set were outstanding!

Well, Berrettini has put a great account of himself so far I think. Interesting stat I heard about Nadal during the match; his return games won has been better than his clay court average(?). There is still work […]

Phew. Was getting so stressed through that match I think my hairline will soon be matching Nadal’s.
Congrats Rafa and on to the next one!
Seriously though, once the big 3 are gone, maybe Schwartzman could lift a slam? -

Hopefully he can wrap this up on this next game. Looks horribly humid there!

Ah, Lucky, if that was directed to me, I apologise, I meant the two sets he had won tonight, not winning the tournament! My bad!

It’s fine! I know the feeling. I had the sweaty palms and then disappointment last night, albeit in admiration of the winner of said other match!

What a battle this is! Whilst it would be nice for Rafa to have won the two sets with relative ease, it says something about how good he is also at winning ugly. That’s impressive in itself, if not his actual performance.

I always look forward to this matchup because it rarely lacks a quality bunch of rallies. I feel that unless something drastic happens (a la Federer yesterday), then Rafa should come through with the win. I’m […]

I find myself often in the position of wanting a big 5 set match, but I know my poor mind couldn’t handle it! I feel like Rafa should win this, but I wouldn’t be massively surprised, or even a little upset, to see […]
