Grand Slam - Australian Open - Day 10

Geech, how good is Barty atm. Finished her match quicker than I can run 3K. Nadal took a bit longer but he is not important for another couple of days. The girls back up on Day 11. And the special K's changed tennis forever, according to some commentators..... i would call it a Davis Cup like...

I would not be surprised if Berrettini loses this one. Playing terribly.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Gael needs to take an opportunity here.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Monfils playing dynamite at the moment.

And gets the break.

 

[YeoShuey]

Berrettini is losing this for sure.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Monfils gets the break.

Berrettini thinks it was out.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

That was in just i reckon

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Break point was in.

Monfils any chance against Nadal?

[YeoShuey]

Monfils any chance against Nadal?

No chance. 2-14 record says that.

Nadal would want Monfils. Berrettini is more of an unknown.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Monfils any chance against Nadal?

I think so.

At 35, has the penny finally dropped with Monfils? He’s certainly more attacking than he’s ever been and is the best pure athlete the game has probably seen.

No chance. 2-14 record says that.

Nadal would want Monfils. Berrettini is more of an unknown.

Huge chance.

Nadal barely got through today and might be injured/ill.

*of course, Monfils still has to win tonight.

Last time Monfils beat Nadal was 2012. 10 years ago...

Absolutely no chance at all of Monfils winning. Even injured/ill, Nadal would destroy him. It will be straight sets victory either way.

 

[Broar]

No chance. 2-14 record says that.

That record clearly shows he has a chance. 1 in 7 chance, you never know.

If you really think Monfils has a chance of beating Nadal at a Grand Slam, you know nothing about the sport. Absolutely no chance.

Straight sets victory for Nadal.

Bro, Yeoshuey’s opinion is clearly worth more than boring old *ing maths

Straight sets victory for Nadal.

Has Monfils beaten Nadal before? Yes. So he's absolutely a chance. Not a good one but its still a chance.

More than yours who jumps on the pro-Aussie train every chance you get and posts abuse at people who don't support Kyrgios. Like go away.

How about at Grand Slams? 0-3

Lost to Nadal twice at the AO and once at the US Open. All 3 of those occasions were on Hard Court... As I said, no chance.

You do realise this is not the same Nadal we saw even 2 years ago?

Of course Monfils can win. He’d have to play well but he can win.

Nadal was lucky to win today. He’s far from unbeatable these days.

 

[BobbyMorri]

Settle people. keep the personal attacks off your posts.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Defenitly can see Monfils beat Nadal,Shapovalo pushed him all the way.

Jesus Christ, that’s cherrypicking to suit your argument. 6 of the 14 wins for Nadal have been on clay. It’s 2-5 on hard courts.

Absolutely Monfils is a chance with the form they are both in. Only a complete moron suggests otherwise.

Could be a moot point in an hour though.

Looks like the same Nadal as 2 years ago to me.

I don't think Nadal was lucky today. He was a superior athlete and knows how to get the big wins. Many people in here thought he would lose in the 5th but I knew he would win it. I just cannot see someone like Monfils beating him at this tournament.

And how many of those were over 5 sets exactly?
