Who is up next in the Quarterfinals ?
What are you on about? Tsonga definitely had 1 and maybe 2 BPs (don't recall) in that game.
And yeah Tsonga's conversion rate hasn't been good today. But Tomic has gone for it when being down.
Bit late, but yeah, no BPs in that game.
At least get it right if you're going to be aggressive
You're wrong. Tsonga had a breakpoint in the 5th game of the third. I commentated the match through out. If you're going to correct someone, make sure you're right next time
How on earth anyone calls Tsonga a "mental midget" is beyond me. His nerves have never been a problem, rather his tendency to lose focus. What gutsy display from the Frenchman.
Well.. there was that QF in Roland Garros against Djokovic.
Tuning into Berdych - Janowizc now. I'm expecting short points and lots of fireworks
Seems like that is legit. Was certain Tsonga had a BP there. Played on getting that right and feel free to rub it in.
Haha, I won't. There are no winners in internet disagreements, and we all make mistakes (me more than most).
Man, Simon is ON HIS GAME today.
Simon takes the match and from what I saw of the match, played uncharacteristically aggressive.
6-4 6-3
this is a bit of a myth...we've all seen the Simon vs Monfils horror shows, but when Gilles is playing well he has no fear to rip FH cross court or BH up the line very flat and with pace
That said he did work the net more than usual and it paid off! Still, those legs! That 30-30 point in the last game was insane
I guess there are, but it's not you here, heheHaha, I won't. There are no winners in internet disagreements, and we all make mistakes (me more than most).
I'm glad you didn't, cause you know what? It turns out I'm actually right

We do indeed all make mistakes 8(
Sure. I also vividly remember his match vs Nadal in Madrid 08, where he was ripping some shots. His FH dtl is the shot I think of the most, when he's ripping stuff. But let's not kid ourselves, he is a counterpuncher, who sometimes can inject some pace on his shots. What I meant by him being uncharacteristically aggressive today, is as you pointed to, him, following an aggressive shot, coming to the net. He did that a couple of times in the 2nd, as well as hitting some nice passing shots.
Hopefully both Tsonga and Simon will be able to sustain the level they showed today.

this was fun to read
