Double Bagel
Masters Champion
I have to be there at 8 AM so that comes pretty fast. Where I work is only a 15 minute drive away though.Ditto here, although I start at 10.30 so it is not that bad.

This is what Moyà and Roig are trying to tell him, too.
How hard does Cilic serve?
It looks like Rafa is standing on his 1st serve way too far back.He could hit 135 mph but because of confidence issues he has been hitting soft serves.
Could pay off along the set, but he has to keep pressure on the Cilic serve...or actually, put more. Risk losing a few, but make him think about it. This is a guy with a fairly terrible year. Don't gift him serves.Even though Nadal did not break there, he was aggressive on the return of serve. We will see if Nadal will continue to do that...

I think in the Cilic last service game Rafa did take a few chances , but didn't win the points. He just did it in this game as well. He will break his serve if he continues to do that.Could pay off along the set, but he has to keep pressure on the Cilic serve...or actually, put more. Risk losing a few, but make him think about it.

This was the pay off of the last near-break. Rafa guessed right on everywhere Cilic was going. No wonder Cilic DF'd on BP, after that point. This is what Rafa has to do...rattle him. And hold serve.Damn Rafa! That was noiiiice!
