Rotterdam ATP 500

[Murat B.]

Berdy passed the test on this occasion. Now I will root for Stan to take the 2nd set so that we get 3 sets of good tennis today....and because it is -40 C here and I want to postpone my going outside of the house for as long as possible:lolz:

Man, -43 with wind chill says the TV. My Turkish ass is not leaving the house, that's for sure...:lolz:

The beauty of Canadian winter :snicker

I figured it can't be much warmer in Toronto, Murat. Unfortunately I have to go out later today, unless my Jeep cooperates and won't start.

I would stay in today Billie...even the fire hydrants are begging the dogs to piss on them...:snicker

 

[Billie]

What a stretch at the net, it pays off to be tall sometimes.:clap

And Stan comes back with a beautifully angled FH.

 

[nehmeth]

Where's Kirijax? Of course Tomas is also prone to mortally threatening lapses, so may be like me when Nole plays - hiding out watching the live scores online. :nono

:lolz: Yeah...or he may be too tired to watch...just like you sometimes:snicker

Nolecoasters are the best....................NOT!

Man...power and control these players display:clap

 

[nehmeth]

Emotionally tired?? Nothing wrings you out like a ride through one of Novak's matches.

Very much enjoying this match.

 

[nehmeth]

C'mon Tomas... Stanka is looking a little pensive out there.

 

[Billie]

Here we go 4:3 on serve in the set #2. The business end of a set.

 

[Billie]

I might get my wish about 3 sets today.:snicker

I still want Tomas to win, though.

 

[nehmeth]

Can't play turd tennis and expect to beat Wawrinka. At least Tomas begins the third set on his serve. Time to regroup.

 

[nehmeth]

And he's off to a 0-30 start :cover

 

[Billie]

Yeah, Tomas lost his timing and is making more UFEs...time to regroup Tomas, quickly.

 

[Billie]

That was a killer...darn net cord. Come on Tomas, don't get discouraged.

My cue to go shovel snow... it has climbed to a balmy 3 degrees Fahrenheit here. (-16C)

From where I am, it seems like you are in a heat wave:snicker

Bend at your knees and watch for your back, N.

 

[Murat B.]

Signature DTL backhand pass gives Stan the second break...It is over.

 

[Billie]

Stan is so confident and is playing so well now, he is really frustrating Tomas. Gosh if Tomas loses this serve, it's virtually over.

Man...what backhand passes in the last game. This is over now.

...or is it? Bird gets one break back.
