Raonic has become clutch. He doesn't fold like he used too. And his shot have become more consistent. Rafa is going to have to be 2012 mode to beat him, no doubt about it.
2012 Nadal would be a huge favorite.

Raonic is more confident now but still has holes in his game. As long as Nadal can play solid on his own serve he will have his chances. I have a feeling this could be a war!

It will be a war, no doubt about it.

Raonic has the strut of a winner now. I no longer look at him as a tall clumsy nerd. I look at him as a beast who is ready to crush you.

With the faster conditions, if Raonic serves well, he has a solid chance to beat Nadal. Going with Raonic in 5.

The Serbo-Canadian vs the Spanish Bull. It is going to be a cracker. This has the chance to be the match of the tournament so far.

The one with the better hair shall win.

Having ex-coach Moya on his side surely will be of benefit.

Like Dr. Frankenstein being called in to slaughter the beast he created.

Wholly crap, Rafa standing very close to the baseline. Have never seen this from him.

Raonic VERY nervous. Cannot finish off short balls.
