2018 French Open Men's final: Nadal v Thiem

[brokenshoelace]

Rafa's tight and returning horribly. Too many UE's. Not high quality stuff so far from either but you feel it's warming up

 

[britbox]

I have that feeling in the guts that Nadal actually breaks Thiem here.

 

[kskate2]

we may be in store for a long day

 

[Front242]

likely alright britbox

 

[britbox]

Hope I'm wrong.

 

[Front242]

Thiem's serving up a gunk fest so far

 

[Front242]

wish he'd stop emulating Nadal standing back miles to return also. It is NOT the way to beat him

 

[Front242]

no chance of taking conrol of the rallies when you're practically in Court Suzanne Lenglen next door ffs

 

[kskate2]

having beaten him 3 times already, don't you think he knows how to do it?

 

[britbox]

Suddenly Thiem finds a first serve

 

[backhandslapper]

right on time

 

[kskate2]

followed by a DF

 

[britbox]

 

[backhandslapper]

poor fella needs a break

 

[britbox]

Who are you rooting for kskate?

 

[kskate2]

either someone will break at 5-5 or this goes to TB

 

[kskate2]

Domi of course, but I just don't think he's ready to win Bo5

 

[Federberg]

is it just me or is Rafa starting to bounce the ball almost as long as Novak?

 

[britbox]

That was quality by Dom.

Hi guys. Tight match so far, with a terrible call by the umprie to deny Thiem a point.
