Is that the worst FH on the tour? Much worse than Gulbis for sure.

Not that last spinny one which ended up being a winner, the one two ponts before.

Florian Mayer's FH is pretty ugly, too.

God Murray looks terrible, no weapons at all.

This Paire has a serious glitch on his FH...amazing to reach this level of teh game with such a poor FH like that!

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 3:12 pm

And Paire has no volley either!

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 3:31 pm

Dimitrov isn't a good match up for anyone on grass. He can beat anyone on a given day. 90% to Fed is pushing it. A lot. Raonic can and already has beaten Fed at Wimbledon - so I'd prefer Zverev here at the moment. Djok would also have a good chance.

Murray is a set up cause this tour is full of mental midgets like Paire.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 3:48 pm

I am just glad Cilic isn't facing Federer in QF. He looks to be the worst QF opponent outside of the big 4 tbh. With raonic/zverev a close second. If Cilic plays anything like this against Nadal, Nadal is toast.

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:04 pm

Murray always shouts "ouuuu" when a ball is close to the baseline to simulate a "Out" call and induce a drop of tension in his opponent. Ugly tennis at his best!

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:13 pm

Oh but i forgot... I already saw muller win when i went back to the future Winking

It's so inefficient.

'Scrapping' against the second leaguers.

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:19 pm

I must admit that the chances of Muller taking a set of Nadal on clay woudl be slim.....but not impossible.

by noleisthebest Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:19 pm

Beautiful serving from Muller.
Didn't see the break, but hope he keeps the nerve.

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:20 pm

That was a fantastic set of tennis from Muller. Held his own from the baseline and solid on serve. Nadal doesn't seem to have the pop on his groundstrokes today.

Could be interesting..

Oh Dan son of Iel, you are forgiven.

let us hold hands and do the Emancipator slay-the-Nadal dance

Hallelujah

Almost zero. There goes your theory about this year's grass being just like clay hmmm.

by noleisthebest Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:22 pm

Let's not forget Muller is e 16th seed.
Good of AELTC to acknowledge him and give him a chance.

If he was seeded according to his real ranking, he probably would've not be playing now.

There's no acknowledging involved. They use a formula to decide the seedings and his grass court performances over the last 2 years earned him that seeding.

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:34 pm

I know about the formula...just good that AELTC do it.
No other slam does.

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:36 pm

I'm expecting Fed to beat Dimi pretty easily. Maybe one tie break set. But it will give us a better idea of where his game is at. If he struggles and drops sets to Federer-lite then that is not a good omen.

Maybe winning his first tournament a few months ago did something to Muller's head! surfer

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:44 pm

Commentators not biased at all in favour of Nadal... honest!

And the crowd... pathetic. You can act like a total jackass and as long as you win a few slams you get drooled over by this lot.

they are awful. Worst than fake rolex dealers.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:51 pm

haha they are! You;re right. And this is the worst crowd in the world too.

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:51 pm

That's typical of Nadal struggling against a flat hitter. Only a flat hitter can trouble Nadal on this surface.....as soon as teh opponent spin the ball, the ball is within Nadal's reach.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:51 pm

"This is NOT how it's been in the first week"

errr... Maybe that's because he hasn't been challenged in the first week?

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:55 pm

Hahaha! My cousin has arrived on Nadal's side. Net cord winner on crucial point!

by noleisthebest Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:56 pm

Nadal is probably still recovering from this! Laugh

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 4:57 pm

He wasn't vamosing that. He was going crackers at himself.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:01 pm

Nadal once again tries to cheat his opponent... knows it was way in but hoping Hawkeye would overturn somehow.

Commentators trying to make it sound like this is Nadal 2008-12... lol. They are going on like the guy is a grass demon who has never lost at Wimbledon! hahahaha

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:01 pm

Wow....teh jinxing is working! Laugh

Muller needs to win one of a possible 3 TBs.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:04 pm

"Another vamos from the greatest competitor this sport has seen the last couple of decades"

Yeah... Federer only has 18 slams and 7 Wimbledon titles...

by bogbrush Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:05 pm

Only 2 TBs possible Tenez....

by noleisthebest Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:15 pm

Why did Muller's ace in the first point have to be repeated?

by luvsports! Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:15 pm

gRR, break.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:20 pm

He's got a huge psychological issue, Nadal. Really piss poor personality. He's actually trying to get the crowd on his side lol. Doh

They're already on his dick.

Also, I think this is just a really poor feigning of energy from Nadal to try and make Muller think he's gonna keep this level. He isn't.

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:28 pm

Ooh, what do we have here, a few neo-BHs?

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:28 pm

this commentary is the worst... they're actually saying the match has turned. It's like Muller isn't 2-1 ahead. Going on about how that was a fast game and Nadal is accused of being slow... yeah 1 in 100000 - wow!

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:33 pm

Apparently Federer has a cold? Anyone heard anything on this?

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:35 pm

He's blowing his nose and was just given a box of tissues.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:36 pm

lol what a JACKASS! hahahaha! Did you see that?

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:39 pm

So many shanks from Federer.

by Daniel Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:45 pm

Meanwhile Nadal's weakest part his serve is suddenly coming good. It's the only thing really keeping him in this.

by Tenez Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:46 pm

Says more about the court than his BH.

by Emancipator Mon Jul 10, 2017 5:46 pm

As expected Federer coasting. Dimi doesn't return well enough to get into the Federer serve. Plus he's outmuscled on the baseline.
