zep1706 Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Nadal seems to be losing this 3rd set gone. He does not have any answer for the serves. 30+ aces already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally Nadal is good at playing well in crucial moments, today it's been the opposite. Gotta give a lot of credit to Kyrigos, he is steady as a rock, no let up at all.

zep1706 Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 That should be the match, well done Kyrigos. He never dropped his level even once throughout the match. Nadal's age is showing here, no energy in the 4th set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bones Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Federer can taste it now. Murray is currently better on grass. Djokovic would fancy his chances in 5 sets. We'll very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep1706 Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Murray is currently better on grass. Djokovic would fancy his chances in 5 sets. We'll very interesting. But Federer has a pretty easy road to the final now and he has had a very easy draw so far. Murray and Djokovic will probably fight it out in the semi.

zep1706 Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 I am amazed by the fact that the level of his serve never dropped even once in the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep1706 Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Having said that with a bit of luck Nadal could be playing Gasquet here instead of Kyrigos. Gasquet failed to convert 9 match points. Nadal got a nightmare draw with 3 of the 4 rounds against big servers and it took its toll finally. And had he won this one he would have faced Raonic next. :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
