You guys are ridiculous just like that crowd which is why the announcers on the feed I'm watching are talking about how embarrassed the crowd feels because he's clearly not moving well. Your hate for Rafa because of your Federer dikkriding has you cheering on a bad game with an injured player. What a joke. Like from jump this guy was not returning with nothing on it and then he even loses a lot on his serve and he's "faking."

Fed tweaks his back, wins in 5 @ wimby, also fails in entire 2013 season.
Nadal tweaks his back, looks like a bytch

Turning this one off now. Hopefully this Nadal stuff doesn't take away from the fact that Wawrinka was destroying him and would have beat him regardless. I'm definitely not buying that he was hurt coming into the match after he destroyed Federer.

Edit: I just can't give Nadal the benefit of the doubt. He's always trying to stall and use "gamesmanship," especially when he's struggling. He gets no sympathy from me.

 

[WaddupDoe!]

He should just serve big and wide and try to finish the points quickly at the net

Stan better than me, i'd be hitting drop shots and volley's

Honestly so would i. Just make it quick and painless.

Maybe Fed should have retired in 2013

If you notice, Nadal hitting the ball deeper now. Earlier he was hitting it short and the ball jumped right into Stan's strike zone.

Gotta feel for Stan tho, his who momentum is SHOT.

Just tuned in and read the last comments. What's happening ?!
Why Wawrinka making so much unforced errors if Nadal is injured ? He needs to calm down and think a bit.

Yeah, you're right. He's moving him a lot better too. That was big against Fed, he had him going left to right a lot.

i wonder how much tickets were for this game

Stan was implying the Soderling go for broke style and it was working. Nadal was hitting shot moonballs right into Stan's sweet spot

Nadal tweaked something and basically mailed in the second set (a LOOOONG medical timeout too by Nadal fukked Stan's momentum up)

Painkillers kicking it and Stan is just nervous right now. Still should win in 4 or 5 sets

Ironically Soderling is doing commentary for Eurosport tonight

 

[WaddupDoe!]

Here comes Nadal.

 

[jfkennedy]

That last forehand. Gotdamn Nadal.

 

[malbaker86]

Here comes Nadal.

Stan is all nerves right now. He just needs to hit the reset button at the start of the 4th set and he should be good
