Hello guys, Tell me who will win this year French Open. I think Rafal Nadal will win. Tell me your choice.

 

[grecian]

You could be right, well done Rafa, I was just leaving to go here

so was hoping you'd wrap it up soon.

Nadal-Djockovic is pretty much a guaranteed thriller these days isn't it? Didn't watch the end till after the cricket, and am disappointed with the result, but another fantastic game. Hopefully Ferrer can pull off a few surprises on Sunday, but I wouldn't bet on it.

That match was just absolutely brilliant. You knew Novak would come back in the 4th and you knew Rafa would come back in the 5th.

It was the reverse of the Aus Open 2012 final.

Was cheering on Novak and felt flat when he lost but happy for Rafa. What a champion.

Imagine the Jono fapfest if Kohli played Nadal in an exhibition tennis match

Imagine the Jono fapfest if Kohli played Nadal in an exhibition tennis match

Kohlschreiber would lose 1&2

 

[Jono]

Hahhahahahahahahahahah

 

[Jarquis]

That last service game from Djokovic was ****ing appalling

 

[Jono]

Brilliant from Serena. Sharapova just has no belief when she comes up against her. Has not beaten her since 2004.

 

[Jono]

Good stuff Rafa.

 

[Burgey]

Protests at the French Open final.

If I paid that much dough to watch Ferrer play the Juiced-up Hewitt, I'd protest too.

 

[Burgey]

Mind you, what a record Nadal has now, not just at the French either. Phenomenal really.

But to win eight of the one Slam really is amazing. Particularly in the modern era.

 

[Jono]

Does anyone remember that guy with the Spanish flag invading the court and being able to put the flag over Roger's face at the 09 final? That was ****ing scary and this was almost as bad.

1. Why the **** is the French security so lax?
2. Who are these people that buy tickets to such an expensive event and only to get kicked out. Lol

Darcis

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Hope Nadal loses.

 

[ajdude]

nadle pls

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Haha Nadal beaten.

 

[Dydl]

Well.

First time he's lost in the first round of a Grand Slam too.

 

[Pothas]

Was rather looking forward to a Nadal v Federer quarter though, do not get an important match until the semi-finals now.

 

[Burgey]

Lleyton forever, Rafa never.
