I still don't think at this point anything is happening ... The first set was way too equal to think Murray will crush Nadal.

I got a chance to see Nole's match except this one b/c i'm at work.

So how the 1st turned out? Was both players playing great or one of them just playing average tennis.

Nadal gifted the 1st set. So many unforced errors. He should have broken him in the game before.

1st set Murray. Plus Murray serving 1st in set 2. Not looking good for Nadal, I think. Totally flat out there..

Anyway, hoping Murray can back it up against Djokovic on Sunday..

Don't be ridiculous. Nadal has been playing amazingly. He just served poorly that last set. Watch Rafa break in the first game. I hope not but it will probably happen :(

Dude, you are contradicting yourself , I don't know if you are serious or in a troll mode.

Zagor is always in troll mode because that's what he is. :p

Annnnnd the joy has begun to show itself it seems. Pretty crazy you guys. :lol: So funny that Nadal losing makes some of you so dang happy. And with that, I am out. Back to watching the match.

I'd rather be an honest troll than an overblown hypocrite who kisses his own reflection in the mirror.

Are you playing quallies for USO?

I don't know but Pat Cash said Nadal looked tired and didn't think he would win this Wimbledon. It depends just how much he is prepared to fight

doesn't look like he's prepared to fight too much atm. Oh well. If Murray wins I really hope he wins wimbly. It would be great for him to win his first slam here.
 
Nadal had only 4 UE the entire first set, of course he's at his best. DIdn't the staunchest *********s on this forum agree that he's not at his peak on clay anymore, but he is on other surfaces.

It's obvious Nadal tanking the match to avoid Djoko.

It'll be interesting to see who is favored if Murray reaches the final. If Nadal gets to the final, surely Nadal will be the odds makers favorite but Djoker actually stands a great shot at winning. With Andy, complete mystery to me.

No way. He had many more in reality. Even Becker thought so. It's always a matter of interpretation anyway.

Murray wins that game to love but misses 3 first serves, it's a good sign for him that he can still win games comfortably.

This post fails so much.

Nadal serving LESS than 60%, Murray close to 70%. Usually the stats are reverse.

Nadal made tons of UFEs in set 1, both from backhand and forehand. Mostly on clutch points.

He continues in the same vein in set 2. Almost all neutral rallies, Murray is in charge..

Had "this" Nadal played against Delpo, he would have lost in straights..

Are you getting those stats from Wimbledon site? If so I wouldn't trust them that much, Nadal definitely made more UFE from what I've seen.
