Well, as you can see, Dimi is not a mental midget and you were wrong about him.
Nadal was playing really well and Dimi did well to wrestle this set from him.
SINGLEHANDEDLY!!!!

Shouldn't be able to take that much time to challenge. No way.

Wrong about him? 2 breaks up and loses them? 4 SP and loses them? I'll reserve judgement for the end. I wasn't wrong about him at all. The set being won changes nothing. It was gutless.

Anyone who double faults like that after such a crap shot is not going to be a big winner. Ever. Terrible!

Wow... this guy is rubbish. He's just nowhere near Fed or Djok or Stan. It's criminal. 4 unforced errors. Three put away shots wide!

I like Dimi's use of BH slice, serving him really well now.

We've got a young Bulgarian join the club recently, have been having a great banter with him in Serbian, big Fed fan, SBH...
Great to see juniors play with a SBH!

Let off for Dimitrov then. He played a terrible game. First serve vanished again. But Nadal played equally terrible.

That break has actually helped nadal. He was under pressure and Grigor had all the momentum that'snow gone. Lucky as usual.

Dimi playing really well.
Shame he was braver with his BH than FH in that point he lost, but it's so hard to find a balance even the TB.
In the next point he went with the FH and won.
COME ON DIMIIIIII!!!!!

Lucky Nadal. Poor 1st serving by Dimi - but I think that person falling ill really helped Nadal. He was playing worse until that happened.

Poor Dimi.
He played well.
I hope he can regroup quickly and take this to the fifth set.

What is Dimitrov's 1st serve % at the moment ? it's got to be poor, surely? 50%? Less even.

Nadal's shots are so juiced, he is making Murray look like a pussycat.

If Federer brings his best, he can beat this Nadal. It's been nothing special at all. Just more of the usual. Dimitrov has over 20 unforced errors and a very poor 1st serve %

I don't think it's stupid.
Nadal is bluffing and Dimi would be the favourite in the fifth set I think.
That is why Nadal is whacking the ball like crazy, he knows he needs to close this in 4.

Dimitrov paid the price then for simply trying to beat him from the baseline. Nadal knows which way the ball is going before it is even struck.

Federer and Stan were on court 3 hours and this match between Nadal and Dimi is 3 hours and 15 so far. Might prove pivotal come the final.

With anyone else, I'd say you;re right. But this is Nadal and he never seems to be tired.

Dimitrov is hitting too many unforced errors and it needs to stop. Way too many put aways going begging, or easy returns going long.

And the pattern continues. Two massive unforced errors in that game.

If Nadal wins this set it will ne because Pascal Maria allowed him HOURS to recover after this big point.
Excuse the language, but Pascal Maria is a piece of shit!

And yeah, that really is annoying. He's been over 20s a ton of times. Over 25s a ton as usual too. They are all scared of warning the top 4 players of this generation. Nadal is the repeat offender.

lmao Nadal is the one to do the drop shot. When Dimitrov should have been doing a ton of them.

Another shank. Another unforced error (that's 51). If Dimitrov loses this match, I don't give him a hope in hell of winning a Slam. He's shown massive frailty all through the match. The 1st serve % has been useless, especially on big points. He's double faulted 3 times at crucial times leading to loss of game. He's making unforced errors all the time from the simplest of returns.
He hasn't got any bottle, in short.

Not in a million years is Dimi a bottler.
He is playing great, with lots of heart. I am really impressed.

Yes, he is a bottler. Someone with his talent hasn't won a slam? Wake up. I remember Jimmy White.

That game was lost again partly through one unforced error - and bad shot selection. But Nadal at least had to play well that game.

His 1st serve has improved this set - but the problem is not in big points. Will it hold for the tie breaker?

OK respect for Dimitrov. He proved me wrong in that set and made me look a plonker. I was sure he'd bottle the tie breaker. But can he carry on and take this? Is he Slam winner material?
Is NITB correct that Nadal was bluffing?........

I love when I am wrong! Happens so rarely!
I must say Nadal tires quite a bit under the 25s rule.
That's quite open I think in that 5th set....but regardless it increases Federer's chances !

Slightly worried here, I see Dimi as much more of a threat to Federer than Nadal will be.
