2019 Australian Open 2R - [16] Milos Raonic vs. Stan Wawrinka

[BeatlesFan]

Why is Stan suddenly grunting? 4 hours now on court.

 

[TripleATeam]

Clutch serving again from our friend Milos.

 

[jm1980]

MP Raonic

If he doesn't win this TB, he's done. Completely spent physically.

 

[TripleATeam]

GSM Raonic after a Wawrinka forehand mishit.

 

[Deon Sanders]

Stan the used to be man gets ousted by generation useless's biggest mug

The fall from grace is real

 

[The Green Mile]

ffs

 

[OldschoolKIaus]

And people call Isner boring lol

 

[jm1980]

Clutch!

Useless p3dobear

 

[True Fanerer]

Wawrinka should've won that set a couple times.

 

[junior74]

What a terrible start to the day here in Europe

Horace Horsecollar through with 40 aces and an ass ugly forehand backswing

 

[NoleFam]

Great match from both guys really. Raonic has won all their matches in Slams now. I think it's 3-0. He drives his TTW haters into despair.

 

[KohlschreiberFan]

Well done, Milos!

You just wanted to see Wawrinka out

 

[abmk]

Stan misses the FH and Raonic takes the match.

Stan really should've served out the set at 5-3.

good quality and interesting match though !

No offense but you must be Balkan then. No human being is happy with a RaoMUG win. Not even his close relatives.

 

[Djokovic2011]

Not that surprising a result really. Raonic owns Wawrinka at the AO.

 

[Pheasant]

That was a nice effort by Stan. Raonic’s serves were on fire. Stan is getting closing to being in form after the long lay-off.

Best of wishes to Stan on his journey back.

 

[NoleFam]

You just wanted to see Wawrinka out

And I posted that where in this thread? I could care less who won really and just enjoyed the match. Don't be salty because Big Pimpin' won.

 

[Sartorius]

Great match. Raonic's focus on the serve is remarkable. Stan should rise in the rankings if he can keep it up.

 

[Josh Lyman]

Stan should’ve won this match. Milos can’t challenge in the later rounds.

 

[NuBas]

Anyone know who Milos's current GF is?

LMAO Clark Kent donut eatin mofo.

 

[Enceladus]

Raonic-Wawrinka 6:7(4), 7:6(6), 7:6(11), 7:6(5)
A great match, with a good end for Milos. Lots of aces and quality rallies.

 

[The Green Mile]

Karlovic vs Hurkacz
Opelka vs Isner
Wawrinka vs Raonic

All four set TB matches, ugh. Someone give me five already. Pretty unusual to have three from in one tournament, all coming from the first two rounds.

 

[NoleFam]

No offense but you must be Balkan then. No human being is happy with a RaoMUG win. Not even his close relatives.

Not a fan of either really so I can watch the match without any hang ups. I don't dislike Raonic like most of the people in here and don't dislike Wawa either. The best man won.

 

[Kyle Venema]

People can hate on Raonic all they want, but the guy does all he can with the limitations he has. One of the hardest working guys who deserves success.

This was an incredible match with both players looking great. It's awesome to see Stan looking like he is back in form and great to see Raonic keep improving

 

[NoleFam]

LMAO Clark Kent donut eatin mofo.

He does kind of look like an oversized Clark Kent. All he needs is the glasses.

 

[Deon Sanders]

Boris Davidson

He was a horse trainer at a harness racing track outside of Lexington, KY

That's ok. Muhammad Ali coming up

Just too much not working for Stan these days. First serve, return and movement to backhand side (what was with all the defensive lobs???).

Maybe the biggest thing is he’s resorted back to mindless play. Not sure what Norman is going to be able to do about that anymore since Stan is now slowing down.

Still - hoping for more from the Stanimal.

 

[NoleFam]

That's ok. Muhammad Ali coming up

Yep and Earth's Mightiest Warrior Heavyweight Champ.

His right hand.

I'm guessing you've already got your fingers and every other body part crossed True Fan.

His right hand is pretty hot then

Hey, even most of us disagree with the concept of a winning Raonic.

 

[Djokovic2011]

Haha, don't worry mate. Fed's most likely winning again this year no matter what happens.

 

[Masterofpuppet]

I am not mad Stan, I'm just disappointed!

Male that slams.

 

[True Fanerer]

You always say that. Djokovic is fav and you know this

Honestly I'm just happy Fed is playing some solid tennis. Things looked so bleak at the end of last year.

If he said it every year, he was right the last 2 years running. I think that's a good record.

[Gary Duane]

Damn, damn, damn. I don't hate Roanic, don't even dislike him. He may be a very nice guy. But I loathe his tennis. I saw Diesel back again in the first set, so losing in the next three TBs in a row is just too much for me. Hopefully someone will take out the big lug soon, because the idea of Raonic winning a slam for me is totally depressing. I'd celebrate of Zverev by comparison, also hardly my favorite, because at least there is some variety to his game.

 

[Harry_Wild]

Bad luck for Stan! He is going drop in the rankings! Go news For Raonic; his ranking is going to be going up!

It could be the New Orleans Invitational and he'd say it lol

Agreed. Raonic was incredidbly focused and served at his best level.

It was weak from Stan not to serve out the 4th set, though. Tip-top Stan would have taken this match.
