Stan in Straights. I'll go with that.
Honestly I think it will be Nadal in 4 - but depends what Stan turns up.

I expect Rafa will win in three relatively straightforward sets. But I am hoping I am very wrong.

Rafa has skated through on an extremely easy draw. The results don't tell the tale. Stan is capable of kicking Nadal's ass and there is every chance he will. When the lousy bottler Thiem can break Nadal - anyone can.

you seem really confident in your prediction daniel,so are you betting on stan winning or nadal winning in 4 sets?

Have you actually seen Nadal play? And if so: didn't you notice the inevitability of things?Daniel wrote:Rafa has skated through on an extremely easy draw. The results don't tell the tale.

Lets see how Rafa will act to the first ever proper opponent on this RG.
Stan wins first set, it will be all done, though losing first set does tend to fire up Stan, just let it not be 2 sets down.

Good first service game by Stan too.
After the USO 2016 he admitted he puked and cried before the final, i hope he realizes he has nothing to lose this time

Rafa first serve sucks so far. Stan needs to come a little fwd to base line and crush the ball.

so far the clouds in the sky has been more interesting then watching the tennis
nadals first serve seems to have improved again..i wonder if its down to a simple change of grip

Crazy levels of testosterone and other funky substances, obviously.
Nadal and his doctors were willing to take the highest risks in order to get the 10th

Nadals balls fly almost as fast as Stan's, but the key is: they spin twice as much.
Meanwhile Stan shows heart and overcomes 3 bp's.

It's not unusual in the beginning, he always a little sloppy when he's not leading.Veejay wrote:i gotta say nadal is making a lot more unforced errors in these few games then i have seen from him in the entire tournament

I reckon Nadal is bluffing.
The longer the match goes the more it's on Stan's racquet.
And Stan appears like he doesn't intend to go amywhere soon.
COME ON MAAAAAAAAAN!!!

looks to me like nadal can be beaten today
he looks a little tight and nervous especially on big points
i think that stan can make him feel uncertain and as long as he doubts himself then theres a shot at beating him

Very beatable.
Stan is not thinking clearly atm, sending him all thise "beautiful" angled balls to his FH.
Has he forgotten Nadal is a lefty!
Anyway...the match/night is young!

Folks you're all wrong. We can only wait for faster surfaces to come, and certain hormone levels get back to acceptable levels.
Anyway, i've seen enough of it.

Looks like Stan's given up.
Poor returning, poor serving.
I am still hoping he may click.

Why, many players hit it dtl on the run.
Only Nadal has a bicep the size of most people's thigh, though.
Amazing for a guy who said he doesn't go to the gym.

No he wouldn't.
He moves ten times netter than Stan.
Not to mention the serve, return, volleys....

We just need another well overdue time violation and Nadal will start to get nervous.
Of coirse, the gutless u oire will never do it.
He's done his one for the masses and that's it.
And now has the cheek to gove Stan racquet abuse violation.

Yeah it was average
I am certain had Federer hit from that very position with that ball the forum would've collectively orgasmed.
Graciousness is certainly not strong point of this forum.

That was a sick FH. It was almost behind him and he hit it like a squash shot at 99 mph. As good as anything from Federer.

Clearly Federer doesn't agree with you or he would've played. I suspect he's sitting at home thinking thank God I'm not on the end of that.

Having to win the point three times would have been too much for Federer.

Anyway, I wish Stan had half of Ostapenko's mindset.
He is going down too meekly.
Masses can drool over this doped baboon, not me.

Which means he's given up "upstairs".

Zero times on clay and not since 2009 AND Nadal is playing much better in this tournament than he has all year.
