Gonna depend a lot on dynamics. It seemed Mergea/Tecau stayed back a lot against 'Murica, you can't stay back vs Nadal in doublesMergea and Tecau, a solid Romanian doubles team (seeded 5th).
A 50/50 match IMO.

DF to lose the match. Gutted
I hope Canada can grab the bronze -- it would be a great career capper for Nestor.
Let's wait until after the Olympics. Murray just entered mixed doubles as well. If any of the two win singles that one is the best obviously

Sydney? Like when he was in his 20's? I can't imagine Nestor in his 20'sNestor already has an Olympic Gold. Still would be great for the great man.
So do the losers play each other for the bronze? Or is it by who got the most points in their match? If they have to play each other when would that be?
I'm not sure we should reply to this............

Who played mixed for France?No one may really care but I'm thrilled for the Brazilian team of Melo and Pereira - they took down No. 1 seeded French team of Simon and Garcia in two sets.
Nestor to umpire at handshake " Disgrace, that was a disgrace." I dont think i've ever seen him so upset!Didn't see the blunder from the linesperson, but Nestor was pretty pissed off.

Ok, that's quite good. Simon is just about the worst doubles player in the singles top 100.My mistake: I errantly posted Simon but it was Nicholas Mahut and Caroline Garcia.
He seems to have shaken off the walking pneumonia rather nicely.Meanwhile, Jack Sock is cracking jokes
No kidding he is really hamming it up out there. Doesn't he realize that he is playing for God and Country?Meanwhile, Jack Sock is cracking jokes
Sydney 2000 with Sebastien Lareau. This is Nestor's 6th Olympics, he started in 1996.
Oh, and Nestor played well, Pospisil played like crap. Hope they can regroup and win bronze.

LolSad. Nadal had the mixed doubles gold medal in the bag.
Well, he couldn't have known he was going very deep in both singles and doubles, though otoh, he kinda could know by the time they were drawing the mixedI think that is a little unfair of Rafa to do that - I am presuming he was the one that made this decision and really should have known 3 events in advance was too much.
Don't know how many couples there were in the first place, and Heather kinda has the partner with whom she's got a real shot at a medalLooks like Heather's the only person who cared enough about mixed doubles to hang around!
That GIF.The dream to see him hold all three medals is over. Darn it Rafa! Why?
