[bullfan]

What an inside out fh winner to get the double break!

Fabulous shot!

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Nadal is soooo lucky.Its raining and his next opponenr hasnt played his match

 

[tennisjedi]

Great finish to the second set.

Rafa shouldn't get too relaxed, Kukushkin can still come back.

 

[objectivity]

that last point to break kukushkin... yeah Nadal is "not a shot maker"... lol. the delusion on this forum.

 

[FanOfLu]

Journeyman's journey ended in that point.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Kukushin mentally has gone away

 

[Steve0904]

Kukushkin is allergic to the net.

Apparently, by definition, that's not what a shot maker does :lol:

 

[maxrenn]

Vamos!!!!!

 

[FedererDropShot]

Nadal is just unplayable now.

 

[Steve0904]

You've gotta come in and volley those, and it costs him the break.

 

[Backspin1183]

Nadal breaks. Mentally Kuku has moved on to hard courts. Grass doesn't need him anymore.

 

[maxrenn]

Nadal is soooo lucky.Its raining and his next opponenr hasnt played his match

It's not lucky it may mean he has to play on tuesday then wednesday which will suck as I have monday and wednesday afternoon off but not tuesday

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Another mental midget.Go awat kukush!!

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Nadal is hitting his forehand harder and harder, he's gonna win but GG Kukushkin.

 

[objectivity]

Apparently, by definition, that's not what a shot maker does :lol:

running 5 yards backwards, hitting the ball while falling backwards, and still smacking it in... "not a shot maker". lol.

 

[FanOfLu]

Reality now sets in for this poorman's Rosol.

 

[Emiliano55]

That's all you gonna give kuku ? Really ? What a poor mind and endurance this guy have...

 

[MichaelNadal]

Where did the haters go?

 

[The-Champ]

that last point to break kukushkin... yeah Nadal is "not a shot maker"... lol. the delusion on this forum.

that's one of the most unbelievable points I've seen this year. That ball must been at max 2cm off the ground. How he dug that upp to fire a scorching IO forehand winner from that position is nothing but greatness personified.. :shock:

 

[RF-18]

well now he is too good. I admit that, but i dont understand why he doesnt start the match being aggressive. Sometimes he is too defensive

 

[StrongerThanAll]

Where did the haters go?

I'm still here. Rafa is still as predictable and annoying as ever.

 

[Terenigma]

Well suddenly this match got a lot less dramatic. This was always coming tho, im suprised it took this long in all honesty but at least he can tell his kids he took a set off Rafa when he was #1 player in the world! lol

 

[The_Order]

Where did the haters go?

To the batcave!

 

[MichaelNadal]

I'm still here. Rafa is still as predictable and annoying as ever.

I have respect for you.

 

[Steve0904]

Hurry up and finish this Nadal. Federer's on the schedule, and I wanna get hammered.

 

[mightyrick]

well now he is too good. I admit that, but i dont understand why he doesnt start the match being aggressive. Sometimes he is too defensive

That is kind of an insult to Kukushkin. His level of play in the first set was absolutely awesome. Nadal only lost 7-6. Nadal wasn't playing badly at all.

Kukushkin was just playing out of his mind in the first set.

 

[MichaelNadal]

Hurry up and finish this Nadal. Federer's on the schedule, and I wanna get hammered.

#Saturday

 

[ktid]

think these next 2 sets will finish 6-2 to nadal

 

[FanOfLu]

How come the other big three's opponent never play out of their mid in the first sets???

 

[Backspin1183]

Good practice for Nadal. Take all your time Rafa. Fed can play Monday.

 

[The_Order]

LMFAO at the TV coverage here. Super Slo mo of Kuku's slip with epic battle music in the background :lol:

 

[StrongerThanAll]

Good practice for Nadal. Take all your time Rafa. Fed can play Monday.

In other words, cheat?

 

[Steve0904]

Ridiculous pick up there from Nadal.

 

[Terenigma]

Kukushkin with a Roddick like approach, Nadal passes with ease.

 

[FedererDropShot]

Yeah Nadal is unplayable in this form.

 

[Steve0904]

Good practice for Nadal. Take all your time Rafa. Fed can play Monday.

Oh I know Fed won't have to play a 3rd round on Monday. They have lots of time left under the roof. I'm just concerned about weekend drinking.

 

[Backspin1183]

In other words, cheat?

cheat and Rafa? How? Why? Rafa can take more time by winning the sets 6-4 instead of 6-1.

 

[Deleted member 716271]

Anyone else get the subtle sense that J-Mac doesn't like Chris Fowler that much?

 

[FanOfLu]

Journeyman's gambling style is not working at the moment.

 

[tipsa...don'tlikehim!]

Where did the haters go?

miss them much ?

 

[StrongerThanAll]

cheat and Rafa? How? Why? Rafa can take more time by winning the sets 6-4 instead of 6-1.

I this honestly a strategy players use? Rafa Gould be last in CC. Then he can decide how Lon he wants to delay.

 

[maxrenn]

w00p!

Vamos!

 

[Terenigma]

Omnomnomnomnom Breadstick. Well not yet, but soon!

 

[Backspin1183]

Oh I know Fed won't have to play a 3rd round on Monday. They have lots of time left under the roof. I'm just concerned about weekend drinking.

I was kidding, man. Rafa definitely should try to play aggressive and end points quickly. Will help him prepare better for tougher opponents than Kuku.

 

[FanOfLu]

Nadal is crushing this journeyman who got lucky in the first set.

 

[Steve0904]

I know you were kidding. I was just saying.

 

[Warmaster]

Nadal dropping first set on purpose so I won't be able to watch both Federer and Brazil-Chile. Nadal continues to troll me!

 

[StrongerThanAll]

Nadal is crushing this journeyman who got lucky in the first set.

Copy and paste this from the last 2 matches?
