Benoit not quite relaxed and 100% into the match, but getting there, his first serve is starting to work.
What a physical difference between him and Berdych.

yes even easier than Federer's.Autumnleaf wrote:Tenez wrote:Nishi through already thanks to Becker walkover.
He got pretty lucky with his draw this RG. Couldn't have possibly got any better. No serious threat until QF, Berdych in QF and now even a W/O.
Roger Federer (SUI) [2]
Samantha Stosur (AUS) [26]
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (FRA) [14]
Gael Monfils (FRA) [13]
Stan Wawrinka (SUI) [8]
Tomas Berdych (CZE) [4] - Berdych like clockwork beats players ranked outside the top 10 at the moment
Gilles Simon (FRA) [12] - surprised Mahut managed to win 2 matches, the French overperform so far. Gulbis in terrible form the whole year already.

Looks like Youshny has been at it again. He abandoned at the end of the second set due to "injury".....His injury being the result of whacking his racquet too hard on his head!

Monf's BH is shocking today.
Is he injured or tired...or both?
He is struggling to make his mind up what he wants to do: go home or grit this match out.
Ideally, he'd love to have a kip first and then decide later...

i really like Cuevas style. Such a nice swing, especially the BH. Plus a good balance. He has the textbook technique Kohli and Robredo have.

Yes, a proper player..I'd say he even has a touch of smooth elegance and even some flair compared to
Kholi.
But at the same time his game seems to be very robust.
His easy serve gives away the talent.

Cuevas definitely tightened up.

Suoer atmosphere with Marseillaise...
Cuevas is quite similar to Fed in some way, it's like watching him play Monfils.

Monfils is the most curious case tennis has ever seen.
He's a likeable character but to me he's Mr anti-tennis

But in fact he coudl have won without more power. The crowd and the situation got to him....That is very argentinian!!!! They have produced a long list of extremely talented players (like in football) but mentally, a part from Maradona, I don't know any with a strong mental strength.

Re: Roland Garros 2015: Daily Prediction game Day 6 Friday 29 - May
I was busy when the fourth set began, had a look for a moment, score was 4-1 for Cuevas with a doublebreak apparently, thought he'd win for sure now, went back to duties, came back again and he had somehow lost the fourth set 4-6. What happened there? Was he really choking? Or did he just have a dip in his play due to other reasons? In the fifth set he committed so many easy errors ... horrible level of play. It also appeared there was nothing on either his serve or his shots anymore.
I feel sorry for Cuevas, I quite like him, he has a nice game to watch, fluid with beautiful angles on the backhand side. He moved Monfils around very nicely, but the defense of that guy was simply incredible. And that after the fivesetter with Schwartzman, but he does that regularly. I just checked and his record at the French for fivesetters won in a row is at 3 in 2006.

50% he choked a bit 50% the crowd. Roughly what happened to Medvedev (v Agassi) or Norman (v Guga) in those FO finals.
