WTF happened to Dolgo? :confused: :confused:

He's far too good a player to get breadsticked by anyone.

Must of played terribly.

No, he didn't play terribly. But he's just not capable of playing at Rafa's level. Dolgo's flashy circus shots were being run down by Rafa and returned with interest. His breadstick was well earned. Rafa was just too good today.

I think nadal is a stylistic nightmare for dolgo. nadal is a player that doesn't make errors.

dolgos junkball game works best against flat hardhitters.
Nadal barely makes any errors when he's fed rythm. However, some players, like Murray, can stop him from building a rythm. Many people here think Dolgo should be able to do the same.

When the errors start appearing, much of his psychological advantage is gone.

As if someone with Nadal as their avatar has any credibility. :neutral:
 

GOAT BAAH!!!

Dolgopolov in straights. Nadal hasn't improved his serving since Indian Wells and Olek is a dangerous and unpredictable player. Should be a cracker.

I ... reeeeaaaallly don't think you want to go there. :-?

Learn to put things in perspective please, I didn't mean to generalize all Nadal fans as having no credibility but this particular one was straight out bias in her views, "Flashy circus shots" is one example. Do tell me how she has any real substance in what she's saying when she belittles the opponent?

But still, let him go there... he needs to ventilate some of his frustrations somewhere and many here would be more than happy to go into a fistfight with Mr Verdasco-lover

Are you trying to be funny or actually Being serious by trash talking and saying things like "fistfight"? If it's the latter then your mentality is quite repulsive and disturbing...

Saw the second set. There was nothing Dolgo could do that Nadal didn't reply with something even better. Nadal played like a boss.

Actually if you take out psychopaths and serial killers in Ukraine, it's not such a bad place.

It's politically corrupt, has massive debts, and it's difficult for educated people to male a living. Prices are high, the salary for a doctor is $120 USD per month and there is large migration of young people to the West to work. They say they will be gone for only a couple of years but most never return.

The former President Kuchma was arrested on a murder charge a couple of days ago for the murder of a young journalist a few years ago. He was found de-capitated in a forest.

how good would someone like dolgo be on grass?

Alex was good enough on grass to have a Match Point against Tsonga (who won 10-8 in the 5th) at Wimby in 2010 ..... even tho he hadnt played on grass "since juniors," as he told an interviewer at Eastborne, where he had made it to the SF, losing finally to Llodra! ;)

Don't act stupid! :shock:

Don't act stupid you say?


Have you actually not seen the stories and videos on the internet of muderers and psychopaths in Ukraine? I'm not going to say the videos I've seen because it will probably result in me getting banned, but don't think my comment was in jest or for a joke. It wasn't.
