Tsonga and Raonic handshake etc

[TennisBatman]

It was a great celebration, locking of the eyes, and handshake...

On no. What has Jo done? Been critical of Rafa and/or an umpire.
How dare he!
Well, that's sure changed my mind.

Yeah, it was. It was good to see.

Does Tsonga celebrate like a lunatic after every match? Even after winning 6-2 6-2?

Yep, every single time, without fail.

Point aside, I believe Raonic should learn the 1H BH. That will complement better his offensive skills.

[VPhuc tennis fan]

I mean "offense" or "attack" skills. Not offensive. Sorry for the error

Tsonga is a beast. Raonic is an old school beast

It is indeed the quality of fantastic sportsmen to call out opponents and officials on their ********, cheating, bias, favoritism.

[ZeroSkid]

This will go down as Raonic's greatest achievement ever

Yep, you've got a point.
If the umpire is being biased then Jo should say nothing and just accept it and let it continue.
If that the idea?
Sure.
It would be nice if umpires did officiate Rafa's matches fairly - how about calling him out over taking too long between points once and a while.
That'll happen when Hell freezes over.

I'm not a fan of Raonic, I've never been a fan of the big servers with nothing else to their game, I was expecting Tsonga to win in the end and indeed he did, but this is another justification for the tie break in the final set of tournaments like this one. The no tie break in the 5th set of a Slam is pretty poor as rules go.
