[Carol]

he never changed it since his playing days, isn't that so? same style..that bangs swept sideways.

Well, time to change a little bit, he has enough age to do it

 

[teddytennisfan]

BAH!! like carol said

BAH!!

[Moxie]

Crap! But Juan Martin will regroup.

 

[teddytennisfan]

Awesome save by the big man!

BUT his forehand let him down -- 3 times atleast in this tie break, crucial times.

 

[teddytennisfan]

JM better get this second set!! come on JM!!

 

[Carol]

When I see those kind of torpedos serves......I feel sad thinking about how much help but.....

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

otters on the rampage.

 

[Moxie]

I know, he can't let his forehand let him down. That's his go-to.

 

[teddytennisfan]

STAN needed aspirin maybe. hope he's okk though.

 

[teddytennisfan]

Crap! But Juan Martin will regroup.

let's hope - he BETTER! and get that forehand under control.

 

[teddytennisfan]

[teddytennisfan]

i was waiting for it -- and it came -

JOHNNY MAC ''...like when i was playing"...hehe.

Sad news. The last of Armstrong stadium. They're going to build another one, with a roof, but that was a crowd-friendly court. The only time I saw Del Potro play live was there. 2009. He hit the ball like a mad man.

 

[teddytennisfan]

there GET THAT SERVE GOING also JM!!!

 

[Moxie]

i was waiting for it -- and it came -

JOHNNY MAC ''...like when i was playing"...hehe.

I don't know why that bothers anyone. Not like he isn't an all-time great. And he's generally self-effacing about it.

not me actually -- but bringing it up because people talk about it. i actually like to listen to stories so we have a feel ''what was it like?""

but he has that habit.

Magnus looks younger than most of the others coaches

 

[Carol]

Delpo with a medical call? not too good sign, my goodness! if he and Novak would reach the final you know what is going to happen....another retirement

Magnus looks younger than most of the others coaches

he was close to winning that FO and getting close to number one , if i remember correctly. was a very , very powerful player too.
