Jake Gardner is a pathetic excuse for an umpire.

Just dawned on me that Monfils is like a worse French version of Henman with regards his record at majors.

 

[inm8num2]

Ferrer almost had the break.

 

[John Dunbar]

Just dawned on me that Monfils is like a worse French version of Henman with regards his record at majors.

i don't think that comparison works, since france has a whole bunch of monfils-level players. france has an army of henmans.

That would be the most docile fighting force in the history of the world.

 

[FortuneFaded]

I'm getting a semi thinking about it.

 

[John Dunbar]

ferrer really had trouble finding nadal's backhand in the second. i don't see ferrer raising his level, so nadal will probably run away with it now.

 

[darkwing]

Yeah, it's over for Ferrer

 

[perfectchaos007]

I could make a joke here....but I'll lay off

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Congrats to Nadal on his eight French Open!

 

[John Dunbar]

ferrer just vanished. unless he takes some magical pills for the fourth set this is going to be over quickly.

it looks like ferrer needs to leave the dragonslaying to sir andrew.

Poor Tim. His (and mine) annual Wimbledon hope and then heartbreak was always such a rollercoaster of emotions.

 

[Peru]

Congrats Halep on your first slam title. No chokes, no stumble.

 

[FortuneFaded]

Poor Tim. His (and mine) annual Wimbledon hope and then heartbreak was always such a rollercoaster of emotions.

I like to pretend he won in 2001. It suits my worldview better.

 

[John Dunbar]

i expected ferrer to go away in the third, but did not see a bagel coming.

 

[FortuneFaded]

Monfils has no patience, he was in a good position on the second set point and tried to force the issue.

 

[darkwing]

dang, who would have thought a bagel in the QF

 

[Niraj]

That crowd reaction

 

[MrPing1000]

lol Murray's face.

 

[John Dunbar]

monfils will come back from two sets down to win, and will be exhausted when playing nadal. rafito wins again.

 

[Kensuke]

What the hell is going with Ferrer. He's supposed to be a fighter.

 

[darkwing]

What the hell is going with Ferrer. He's supposed to be a fighter.

what hope do you have when you have Nadal in beast mode

 

[Ashhong]

Lol, I checked the score and Nadal just won set 2. Refresh it in what feels like 10 minutes and its 6-0 third set. GG

 

[Squalor]

What the hell is going with Ferrer?

Nadal woke up.

 

[Niraj]

What the hell is going with Ferrer. He's supposed to be a fighter.

He's playing a guy who does the same thing as him, just way better. It's like Vegeta vs Goku. He might get small victories against him here and there, but in the end he's just not even close to being as good.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Fucking Ferrer.

 

[Squalor]

Wow, I can't believe he won that point for the advantage.

Edit: And of course he closed the game.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Ferrer has crumbled.

 

[John Dunbar]

10 games in a row. jesus fuck.

 

[Squalor]

Ferrer has crumbled.

He folded like a lawn chair.

Ho. Ly. Shit.

 

[Kensuke]

He's playing a guy who does the same thing as him, just way better. It's like Vegeta vs Goku. He might get small victories against him here and there, but in the end he's just not even close to being as good.

You're right, Ferrer has no great weapons besides being a wall. Something Nadal also does better. But losing like this, where is his pride? Nadal might bagel him again.

 

[Hige]

I'm convinced that Monfils and Ferrer pulled a Freaky Friday body swap after the 2nd set.

 

[Kensuke]

Monfils breaks. Jesus. Nadal might just ask for a bathroom break to quickly fap to this situation. His spot at the final is all but guaranteed.

 

[Niraj]

Everything's coming up Monfils.

You're right, Ferrer has no great weapons besides being a wall. Something Nadal also does better. But losing like this, where is his pride? Nadal might bagel him again.

*shrug* he's an enigma. His coach might need to lock him a closet again after this one.

 

[Deku Tree]

Can Monfils hold on?

 

[Ape Gone Insane]

At this point, it may just save Murray if this game gets delayed until tomorrow.

 

[darkwing]

shesh who wants to see a double bagel

 

[John Dunbar]

murray looks exhausted.

 

[Niraj]

shesh who wants to see a double bagel

Nadal.

 

[Deku Tree]

Nadal is not worried about Murray or Monfils IMO.

 

[darkwing]

lol poor Murray

 

[John Dunbar]

murray-monfils is the french version of murray-verdasco at last year's wimbledon. monfils to win the title.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Monfils destroying Murray right now, fucking hell.

 

[Niraj]

At least Ferrer won a game in the last set. Now he gets to go home with a little dignity intact.

Spoiler

lol

Murray is crumbling.

 

[MIMIC]

*wakes up from nap*

So Ferrer won the first set, huh? Looks like he was thoroughly punished for it.

 

[greenleaves]

If Monfils wins, will he still have enough in the tank to push Rafa?

 

[stabi]

Gaël ! Gaël!

 

[Niraj]

lol oh man. Classic Monfils.

 

[darkwing]

it's getting dark, they should just suspend play now

 

[John Dunbar]

if the play is not stopped murray needs to take a tactical mto or he is done.
