interesting to hear all the people say how good his commentating was.
if i was asked without hearing whether he'd make a good commentator before hearing him i'd have thought "probably not".
as for the match. he had his chances and just butchered them really.
there was 9 games in which he had break points and failed to break. compare that to 3 with nalbandian. in those 9 games he had 19 break points. Nalbandian had 5 break points in his 3 games. that's a massive difference.
i really wish they'd show the amount of games they've missed break points in alongside break points won and BP% because that stat alone doesn't show the full story. example - player A is 1/4 but all 4 came in the same game and they eventually got the break. player B is also 1/4 but all 4 came in different games. so player B has actually missed break opportunities in 3 games.
