Haas-Rosol match going to three sets.
Haas enjoyed his rissoles at lunchtime 😉
Ed bats herself on the back for correct scoreline.
she had 7-0 in the third-set tiebreaker?
predicting in three sets was better than predicting in straights
BTW: Haase prediction was just for fun – want to see Haas playing Haase
Gulbis:Ferrer going to a decider. You can’t ever accuse Gulbis of being a good sportsman.
pats not bats
The pressure cooker that passes for the Gulbis mind is about to explode.
this is a meltdown of EPIC proportions
Would you describe it has his MOST epic meltdown?
Not even close
Pleased the terrier didn’t let go 🙂
Pity the Gulbis Temperament doesn’t match the Gulbis Talent
So it is Haase after all. 🙂
The Race Syndrome takes effect again.
The same applies to Paire. He has the talent but his temperament lets him down.
Dimitrov is keeping calm and wearing down Paire’s resistance.
