Wimbledon Day 7: Monday, June 30 - Order of Play

robredo/fed could go the distance depending on which fed shows up. robredo could win that match since hes done that before. i wont be surprised. i might even be happy since this way fed wont have to face rafa. rafa seems to be playing better as rounds progress

I'd be surprised if lightening strikes twice with Robredo, especially on grass. As with Rafa, he does almost always play better as rounds progress. That's his MO. I'm sure you don't really mean that you'd prefer for Roger to lose to Robredo, though, than face Rafa. Really?

Yup. Really tired of fed blowing it against Rafa even when Rafa is playing bad. It's just heart breaking to watch

 

[crystalfire]

^ Until I see him man up and even be competitive I'd say 20% is way too high.

Agreed.

 

[DarthFed]

^ I don't prefer Roger lose to this powder puff pusher again as compared to giving himself a chance in the semis. Any chance Roger has to try to save his legacy needs to be taken at this point. Robredo or the Isner/Lopez winner certainly aren't going to do the job in the semifinals vs. Nadal.

Kei vs. Grigor could be epic.

Kei vs. Raonic you mean? I don't think it will be epic and I'd have to favor Milos there. Can't say I care much for the petty cheat but he has improved a lot this year, starting with movement.

A good read in the ATP site regarding Milos.

Milos has a big game but prefer Isner's game over his to watch. which is really not a pure compliment from me

I prefer chewing gum and watching paint dry before watching big John.

 

[crystalfire]

Is isner such a bad returner that he can't even break opponents? Its pathetic to watch him play.

 

[kskate2]

^ Yep.

 

[DarthFed]

Yes, pretty much. This match has all the makings of a 7-6, 6-7, 7-6, 6-7 20-18 match.

 

[kskate2]

^ I hope not. Maybe F-Lo can squeeze out another TB and end this in 4.

 

[crystalfire]

Yes, pretty much. This match has all the makings of a 7-6, 6-7, 7-6, 6-7 20-18 match.

I prefer sleeping

I got the draws mixed up - thought Kei and Grigor played next.

Man, you're harsh on Milos. That was just once, right?

 

[DarthFed]

^ How many times do you want him to blatantly cheat?

 

[Murat B.]

Tweener half volley from Grigor. He does this kind of stuff regularly. He has the feel. Me like...

 

[Murat B.]

^ How many times do you want him to blatantly cheat?

Cut him some slack bro...He apologized many times and explained how he could not handle the situation at the time. He talked to Delpo too, cleared it with him and Delpo has accepted his apology too. He is young.

That messed up my draw challenge, but I don't mind. I'd rather Isner be out.

 

[Murat B.]

Really bad timing for Mayer-Dimitrov match to be suspended.
