LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Guestoria Pedicurenka got sent back to the depths of Belarus where she came from by the ultimate choker Jovanovski. I can't stop laughing. How is that possible? Too bad I couldn't watch the match, I wonder if she had one of her tantrums in that last set.

Wtf, thats creepy. Looks like his legs are broken.

And Vika played well against Giorgi on Eastbourne. I thought that would have been a good test/warm-up for her. Guess not.

lol, not at all. She has been the Guest for quite a long time. Pedicurenka even more since her retirement some years ago because of bad feet nails.

Screw the match scheduling for Hewitt match tonight, same goes for the Tomic match last night. You know it would be nice if they scheduled matches so the countrymen/women at home can actually watch them at a decent hour.

Both Hewitt & Tomic have/had two matches in front of them, UGH to start watching a tennis match at 2AM or worse.
 
nadal will probably win this match, but if he wins wimbledon again playing like this they should just cancel tennis. cancel it forever.

In fairness, playing relatively poorly in every match until the semis/final is sort of a Nadal trend. It's definitely better than Djokovic's tactic of playing relatively well in every match until the semis/final.

EDIT: Also, on a different note, I fucking love the BBC. So nice to not have to watch shitty quality streams.
 
oh god guys hold me hold me tight

EDIT: I mean he'll still lose but fuck that was satisfying
 
I think he's pretty much finished as a grass court player of any note now, Nadal. Murray would love to get Nadal in the final (obviously he won't get that far) and give him a beatdown of 2008 French Open final proportions.

Nadal would probably give Murray a tough match though. He's a bad matchup for Andy and the ball bounces much higher by the second week. Rosol is to Nadal as Berdych is to Federer. Rosol just seems to like hitting Nadal's topspin strokes, and can rip flat shots consistently.

He is, but I just don't think Nadal would trouble Murray nearly as much on grass as he usually does on other surfaces. Murray is possibly the best grass court player at this moment in time. Nadal is massively on the decline when it comes to grass.

I'd actually love to see Murray - Federer again. Both would fancy their chances and it could make for an epic 5 setter.

yup, I'd say something like 6-1,6-2,6-3

I'm sure Nadal will put up more of a fight than that.

Murray-Federer is the match I want to see most at this tournament, by a long way. Assuming both Murray and Federer remain near their peaks given what they're currently capable of, it'd be the most entertaining and close match of the big contenders, by a long way.
 
woah

It's really a game between Nadal's faltering serve and Rosol's WOAH serve. Rosol is dictating his service games so beautifully and is returning Nadal's weak serves pretty well.

GO ROSOL
 
Should be noted that Nadal is much more in his own element during the second week of Wimbledon than the first. He has always been susceptible to upsets in the first week because the grass is less worn out and that much slicker. Unfortunately for him he is running into some big hitters who will have none of that such as Rosol... and Darcis of course lol.

Rosol looking mighty comfy out there. Very much in his own element.
 
Aside from his serve, which is horribly weak at the moment, Nadal isn't playing badly by his standards either. There's a lot of variety with some lovely slices, he's staying relatively strong on the backhand side, he's varying the depth to try and break Rosol's rhythm. Rosol is just having none of it.
