How is everyone watching the Nadal match? I'm assuming BBC will just switch to Murray once the second set starts.

Nadal out to 5/4 now. Tempting but I don't like the way he winced with that knee of his.

Doesn't look himself at all does he- looks a bit slow response wise to me

They do.

2 more service holds, come on lad.

 

[easley91]

This is amazing. All Darcis has to do is hold serve.

 

[hughy]

They do.

They do now, they didn't earlier.


Plus, even now it's just a basic choice of 3 or 4 matches. Used to show up in a grid form. Bad form by Sky.

Straight sets. Unreal.

Has to favour Federer, his route to the semi finals has just become a lot easier.

You have to wonder how much longer Nadal has left. Maybe he will just play on clay courts from now on.

Nadal is out in straight sets, unbelievable! My prediction of him in last 4/final was wrong by miles.

Nadal out in the first round, what a shock! I've never seen him hit so many into the net.

To be fair, Darcis did play the game of his life. Obviously, Rafa still has a problem with the knee.

I loved the reaction to the 'Rafa News' on Murray's court.

Big boost for Murray with nadal going out

 

[DuDe]

Big respect for Rafa during the Press Conf.

He didn't blame the knee and just admitted his opponent was better than him today.

Love it. The Journos persisted with questioning Rafa's knee and he put them in their place after the 3rd/4th time of being asked about it: "I don't want to talk any more about the knee, I'm not using it as an excuse. He played an excellent game and was better than me" - not his exact words, but the gist of the statement.
