Del Potro over Nadal

Del Potro should win today. He's won their last two matches and both of them have been on hard court. Del Potro is 13-1 in his last 14 matches...all of them on hard court. Enough is enough. Put this bastard away, Del Potro! :houra

Re: Del Potro over Nadal

first, revolver, thanks for starting this thread. i love tennis and play often, even though i'm an old fuck at 61.

i see two defensive players, neither of which employs a startegy
to set up the other for a winner. delpotro, the harder hitter might
make more unforced errors, as this match is the furthest he has
gotton in a grand slam. also, his movement on hardcourt is not
up to the standards of the remaining semifinalists.
nadal, i am very impressed with is mental approach--he just hates
to lose. his knees seem not to limit his movement. his abdominal
discomfort will hinder his serve, but his serve, except when served
wide, is never a factor. i believe nadal does have the where with all
to adapt his startegy while del potro's game is one dimensional.
the line at @-130 nadal is a good line. i see 5 sets with nadal holding on
as del potro will tire should i be correct and the match lasts 5 sets.
anyway it should be an entertaining match to watch

Does Federer win easy today?

Hey buddy.

Djokovic has a winning record this year against Federer. He's 2-1. He's beaten him once on clay and once on hard court this year. I put a small wager on Djokovic. Will Federer win? Probably. Does he win easy? Probably not.

Re: Del Potro over Nadal

good call today, revolver. financially it's better for me as i have both
roger and juan martin to win the open, however, i am shocked at
the outcome today. i thought nadal in 5 sets, and i bet over 40.5 games-
what a loser i am. nadal is finished as a top 3 player, as players have
figured out to take his ball on the rise, and pound it......
time will tell.......
peace
