Sock is bassically the identical twin of harrison with a slightly better serve but worse Backhand. Another Blowout!

Monfils in 4. Socks lack of backhand too much to overcome vs Monfils and I really like what I'm seeing lately from him. Nadal vs Monfils way more entertaining then Sock vs Nadal.

Monfils has been going big off the fearhand and actually the backhand as well but it comes in spurts i cant say he is hitting that big every shot the aggressiveness in his game is evident and good too see. I see him falling to Nadal but i hope he can get in top 15 again this year.

Monfils' lack of killer instinct is part of his problem though. I get the sense that he is happy being a very good player, but not a great one. He is there to win a few matches in each tournament, make friends on tour, have fun, and entertain the fans. His being good friends with Sock is not that much of a good thing in his case, I remember him playing sad mediocre matches against his other friends Tsonga and Gilles Simon. Have you seen Nadal during his matches? He seems like he will stop at absolutely nothing to destroy his opponent. Monfils could use some of that attitude.

that explains why Nadals killer instinct has trouble with Monfils laid back attitude.... Monfils only problem is lack of consistancy of his GREATNESS. for you to even question MonGOAT with Sock is just disrespectful.... i do inderstand your point of view though

Monfils in 3. Plus it would be nice to see Nadal face a real opponent. No interest in seeing Sock get his teeth kicked in by Nadal. Plus Monfils is fun to watch against the top guys even if he loses.

Either way, Rafa gets it easy. Sock, for all his power, just has way too many holes in his game right now, and Monfils will check out and stop giving a rat's *** when he realizes just how much effort it'll take to beat Nadal in this kind of heat. He'll be happy doing what he always does; putting on a crowd pleasing show that some might construe as meaningful resistance.

I know Nadal is going to win, simply said I would not have a problem with Monfils winning, but it's not like I am expecting anything other than a Nadal Djokovic final.

Fair enough! I'd actually rather Sock win, believe it or not; Monfils can put on a good show but his tendency to go away grates on me at times.
