Poor Gilles. I thought he was going to cry when that call wasn't overruled.

That drop shot was a shot of desperation.

I know! I just realized as well that he's too tired to complain! It's more likely he just starts crying.

Now I'm waiting for the trainer to call a trainer!

Poor guy probably hasn't got enough body fluid left for the tears.

I really hope this keeps going though, it's enthralling

they know better

Did Simon just start serving even slower?

underground · 01-19-2013, 04:23 AM

Simon being too passive and waiting for errors. You can see Monfils mainly doing the attack and try not to move as much as possible to conserve energy.

6-6 now Simon can challenge.

westside · 01-19-2013, 04:23 AM

86 minute last set, and we're only at 6-6. Ball so hard.

LOL

It could go for awhile - like several hours more! - since there's no tie break. Yikes.

axel89 · 01-19-2013, 04:26 AM

okay that was a poor shot slection should of went uptl backhand

underground · 01-19-2013, 04:27 AM

Don't worry Monfils will break back again.

westside · 01-19-2013, 04:27 AM

How monfils lost that point is an absolute disgrace.

Surely Simon will serve it out now...surely!!!

DragonBlaze · 01-19-2013, 04:27 AM

Please Simon, no more. Please.
