Raonic wins 7-6 6-1.
Pete was keeping up with him for the first set and looked to be finding his range with his returns, but then the wheels fell off during the tiebreak.
After that, Pete's serve seemed to lose something and Milos really started to rip his returns.
Decent match, but Pete definitely was showing some rust.

Raonic is getting hype which he doesn't deserve. 2nd round of Wimbledon and then falling on his butt and being injured for months. Come on dude. That's some wimpy sh*t right there. Another Del Potro with half the talent coming up it seems except this kid is so damn tall and rail thin, he'll be more inactive than active. A walking injury...another big bust. Not that I felt he was all that special to begin with. He won't achieve anything. Nobody that tall and wimpy who gets injured so easily is going to make a mark.
It's obvious the Canadians will get behind him. Who do they have other than Daniel Nestor? LOL!

Krajicek was also injured, tall and thin all the time. He ended up winning the biggest title in tennis. I think he's not specially talented like Krajicek maybe, but it's not that someone who's injured a lot hasn't got heart or something like you seem to make of it.
Free health care and a stong economy?
Is that the right answer? Do I win the free iPad?

Being optimistic doesn't get you anywhere in life either. Putting your hope in a guy like Raonic who is more likely to be just another Marin Cilic at best...if that...is far more realistic than thinking this 7 foot weakling will do anything at the top level. He took a tiny little slip and basically died! He's a wimp. And now he comes off with hip surgery at only 20 years of age. LOL!

LOL, wait till you get injured and feel pain.....and someone call you a wimp. Let see how that sounds.Calling him a wimp because he slipped and fell got an injury is so low. It's okay if you call him a wimp for being mentally weak to execute a strategy or choking.
There are idiots in the world who try to act tought and laugh at other people injuries and failures. They do it to hide the weakness or to feel strong which in fact they are mentally weak. Never laugh at someone's physical weakness. Guys who laugh at scranny kids or ay someone physical abilities just because they think they are superior. Those guys who talk like that are a bunch of p....ssies,....I would want to rip them a new one, but I wouldn't since I don't want to be weak like them.
Ya I know Raonic isn't going to win slams and whatnot....that doesn't matter. SO far he is the best Canadian tennis playe we have.....getting to the top 30 is such a remarkable act. If his whole career would end up being in the top 50 winning a 250 event every 2-3 years would be great. The only great we had was a women in the 80's who was top 6 in the world. If he does become a marin cilic then that is very fantastic...Cilic reached a semi in Aussie and is a top tenner at one time. He has multiple titles.
I believe the fans of Milos are rational and realistic. Sure we may say he would be the goat win 3 slams.....but that is all jokes. It remains to be shown and will never happen. Though that doesn't deny that Raonic and Popisil are the best talent we have.
I agree with you that Raonic is overhyped but to call him a wimp!

The guy shouldn't be even bothering with tennis right now. He should be in the weight room packing on about 20lbs of muscle on his scrawny ass.

He should work on his movement and build more leg mucles! Simon is very scrawny and he is a good player!
Movement is key for him!
