bad tennis

 

[BeatlesFan]

I am no Raonic fan, but that was a high quality set of tennis from him. Good job at net too.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Zverev needs to decide that he's #4 in the world and deserves to be #4 in the world. Snap out of it!

Neither is playing well enough to win this tournament in this set

 

[pikku05]

Zverev needs to calm down, still think he can win in 4 or 5. Raonic is not doing anything special and his ground game is very much exploitable.

 

[-snake-]

Delightful

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Breadstick lol

 

[Terenigma]

Amazing to think that the only game Zverev won that set was a break. It was just the slow start from Raonic, he's in gear now. 6-1 bread stick!

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

I am no Raonic fan, but that was a high quality set of tennis from him. Good job at net too.

I actually didn't think he played all that well, certainly not well enough to win the tournament. It's just that Zverev hasn't shown up to play the match yet.

Servebot impressive.

 

[Deleted member 762343]

Wow, first set already done. Well that was fast.

Milos v Zverev 61,, breadstick

This reminds me of my attitude when I was a teen and just did not care about a my match becauses I was getting wumped on! Well done Zverev!

 

[tennisjedi]

Didn't expect the first set to end this quickly.

 

[NuBas]

Yeah really poor level from both.

 

[BeatlesFan]

I actually didn't think he played all that well, certainly not well enough to win the tournament.

I never remotely suggested Raonic has any chance of winning the AO. I merely said he played a solid first set in this particular match.

 

[NuBas]

I hate when players keep looking at their box. Its frickin tennis, you're on your own.

More like getting extremely lucky with net cords and an imploding opponent.

 

[EloQuent]

Raonic plays an interesting game, I'm not sure why he's so hated here.

 

[The Green Mile]

Another net cord going the way of Raonic, much to the chagrin of Zverev who is still finding it difficult to make a 1st serve. 0-30

DF, 3 Bps...

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

How do you get breadsticked by a servebot

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Hahahah double fault. Triple BP Raonic.

 

[beltsman]

Another lucky netcord winner for Milos. This is getting ridiclous. Milos is a disgrace to tennis.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Zverev's inconsistency in best of 5 matches is back ): So disappointing. Can he pull himself together?

 

[Steve0904]

Zverev crumbling as usual in GS.

 

[NuBas]

Its like he's giving up

 

[Giorgilli]

Next gen is **** compared to lost

 

[BeatlesFan]

Another DF from Zverev.

 

[yokied]

You try and tell me ABZ is not a good lifestyle choice. This is scrumptious.

 

[EloQuent]

How do you get breadsticked by a servebot

Moral bagel too

 

[Terenigma]

More like getting extremely lucky with net cords and an imploding opponent.

Yeah, lets ignore the ridiculously good reaction shot via the netcord that went against him or the stunning slice BH DTL winner he hit for the break. This is all Raonic being too good.

 

[sredna42]

Zverev has no +1 after his serve. Even when he gets a fluff ball return, he can't attack it most times. Just starts a rally instead.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Raonic breaks to start the 2nd lol.

 

[jklos]

Zverev playing a solid 4.0 USTA level.

 

[The Green Mile]

Zverev is annoyed at Raonic's unpredictable and mishitting drive backhand rofl...

 

[onyxrose81]

Z-Money is not rewarding the faith I put on him after WTF.

 

[Steve0904]

Another lucky netcord winner for Milos. This is getting ridiclous. Milos is a disgrace to tennis.

He wouldn't even get the netcords if Zverev wasn't so passive in the first place.

Raonic plays an interesting game, I'm not sure why he's so hated here.

Not really. He's just having a good day and we all know Street sucks at the slems.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Zverev plays a trash game and then whines to Lendl. Tiresome.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Raonic plays an interesting game, I'm not sure why he's so hated here.

He wears New Balance. That's pretty bad. I thought only people over 50 wore those. Or kids that don't let you copy their homework.

Here's proof:

 

[pikku05]

Lol Zverev wake up

 

[King No1e]

Jeez, what is this?
Come on Sascha! Make this competitive!

 

[TennisFan3]

Sasha is playing crap, and Raonic isn't even all that good.

Watch Raonic broken 4+ times and pulverized by Djoko in straights in the SF.

Milos v Zverev 61,, 1-0 up a break

Cheers

[EloQuent]

Zverev looks physically nervous and uncomfortable.

 

[NuBas]

Zverev playing a solid 4.0 USTA level.

Hey don't insult me

 

[pikku05]

Needs to get past Medvedev first.

 

[beltsman]

If it were a player that we know has talent, like Bull or even Federer, then you could say yes great shot. But Raonic likely wasn't intending to do any of that. He just got lucky. He doesn't have the talent for that.

 

[King No1e]

He wears New Balance. That's pretty bad. I thought only people over 50 wore those. Or kids that don't let you copy their homework.

Here's proof:

Raonic doesn't just wear NB. He IS New Balance

 

[Deon Sanders]

May be time to consider the fact that Sascha's career is already over
