Probably just as well as Nadal will be there.Tenez wrote:Murray has now the easiest draw by far.
Anyone else uneasy about Federer tomorrow? What's happened to Dolgo, he could play.

Re: Wimbledon Day 2
I know he doesn't have great grass court pedigree but Thiem still seems more likely than Berdych to make QF. Given the thumping he gave Novak there, he would be a much trickier match up than Berd.Tenez wrote:Rourtes to finals revisited:

Murray still has Pouille in R4 - could still be very tough for him.

Re: Wimbledon Day 2
I saw a bit of Murray today. He is badly injured. Bublik with a bit of focus coudl have done much more damage but he was so emotional to be on CC that he coudl not concentrate.bogbrush wrote:Probably just as well as Nadal will be there.Tenez wrote:Murray has now the easiest draw by far.

I think Murray might get passed Brown but not Foggi or Tsonga.

Novak Djokovic (SRB) [2]
Djokovic should beat Klizan 80%
Alexandr Dolgopolov (13)
v
Roger Federer (SUI) [3]
Anyone who thinks Dolgopolov is a push over is insane. He has the ability to beat Federer on a given day and is a nightmare for a first round opponent. You'd still expect Federer to win. I think in 4 sets. 80%.
Milos Raonic (CAN) [6]

Raonic should batter him 95%.

Alex D. hasn't got a chance.
I love Dolgo, but when it comes to winning, there is more to it that flashy shots.
I hope we see the best of both players.

Yes, you are. It's the first round and he does have a chance. On a given day, he is a handful. He isn't a player you want to be playing in R1 of Wimbledon.

Re: Wimbledon Day 2
Actually, Dolgo is almost a perfect r1 opponent for Fed: a shotmaker who does not rely on fitness.

If i were you I wouldn't talk about things you don't seem to know much about.
Stick to your digits and stats.
It's so safe and approved of the masses, so you must be ok.

That's extremely rude, can you apologise? Well known fact Rafa's satanic rituals not only made Djokovic fall over and touch the net but also made the Wimbledon draw makers fall over and keep putting easy names in Nadal's side.summerblues wrote:You just said on the other thread that Nole touched the net because of Rafa's satanic rituals.

Tomic out to Mischa Zverev. Mischa and Sasha have so different games, if I were the father I would be asking for DNA paternity tests.

Nice to see the Colonel doing well so far, I still hope for a 17th meeting with Federer. An entertaining player in his day.
JMDP sadly slipping away by the look of it.

This is the guy who will prove a real challenge for Nadal, if Young doesn't do the business. He's 6 feet 6, won his first ATP title last year. Nadal's short balls will be eaten up.

I hope so. His 1st round was dodgy but he looked very good against Federer at Halle.

He was also impressive at French Open. Beaten by Murray, but that's not a surface you'd expect him to go far on. He beat Isner and berdych at the FO too.

Shame Delpo keeps being drawn with Nole all the time.
Wow, so strange seeing Agassi and Ancic in his box!
Well better than Pepe and Marko

Players are rarely 100%.
Stan, Murray, Kurgios...they were the obvious ones yesterday.
They go out and have a go.
You can't blame them for it.
Klizan is playing better than Milliman yesterday.

But he can't even move. Novak has been poor so far but then he probably knows he just needs to keep the ball in play.

Klizan's got weapons. Big serve big FH, coulda been a rafa killer if he were fit.

I did not know Klizan was injured and I was even quite looking forward to this match. But this is pathetic, the guy barely walks.
There should be some way to take prize money away from people who enter the tournament knowing they have no chance to play properly. A qualifier would have been more interesting to watch.

No change for Dolgo. And i'm not insane, i think.
Dolgo's favorite surface is clay, he never won a set of Federer, never did something special on grass, recent form is poor ect ect.
What is he going to do? Tickle Federer with his ponytail?

I disagree.
The guy has earnt his right to play and be paid for it.
The rules could be changed that a not fully fit player who can't endure the match gives a paid w/o and the LL gets a chance.
Slams are loaded and would feel even the sligthest financial dent.
It's not an easy situation for anyone.

Flashy players usually get destroyed by Federer. Fed makes them look stupid with his clinical efficiency. It's the road runners that have caused him problems over the years

Nitb, I would be ok with that too. Either pay them even if they don't play or do not pay them if they play while obviously incapable of playing. Either solution is fine with me. The current setup is bad though as it induces players to just show up because of the money they would have to give up otherwise.

I think I expect this to be closer than most think...even if 3 sets...coudl be 3 close sets.
