Australian Open 2017 - Day 2

[LukeParkerno1]

Rodionova, Tomjlanovic, Gavrilova, why do we persist in recruiting absolute hacks?

Yet we let go of Konta good one lmao

 

[rippersnipper]

Most men can pull that off but I've never seen a female even attempt it

 

[BobbyMorri]

i almost want all the aussies to lose just so I can stop reading all the sooking going on in this thread.

ha, through the legs shot to win the point by Aga. this is why she is my favorite player. touch, consistency and speed around the court. love it.

 

[Wolfs]

Radwanska is like the female version of ferrer. Beats all of the inconsistent players comfortably by working them over and then loses to someone who hits the ball properly on a consistent basis (serena/kerber)

Kind of disagree with the comparison to Ferrer. Ferrer isn't as crafty as her by a long shot. Anyway she can win a GS but a lot, lot, lot of things need to go her way.

And we are going 3.

 

[Xtreme]

Will never win a GS.

Has zero weapons.

Can say the same about Kyrgios too

It was more just the fact that he used to beat everyone and shield the big 4 like aga does (albeit she's been in the top 4 for ages) and that they both run for days.

 

[Drummond]

Will never win a GS.

Has zero weapons.

And she's dished up consecutive second serves at 102k's. I mean come on, seriously.

How opponents don't pound that pathetic serve is beyond me. Women's tennis really is quite ordinary.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Mel again

She moves better than most, if not all, of the women on the circuit.

That's her standout feature.

It's a joke.

 

[Wolfs]

That lob

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

That tweener from Radwanska was brilliant.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Pironkova is a mental midget

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Dasha has the same Radwanska "belt me" serve

 

[rippersnipper]

Legit just trading service games which isn't particularly surprising

 

[BobbyMorri]

That lob

yep. just brilliant.

i hope everyone watched it. really enjoying this match.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Wat?

 

[Wolfs]

Someone hold.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

These two can't serve

 

[Xtreme]

Wat?

He'll never win a grand slam. He has no weapons but he has plenty of weaknesses including a pea heart when the going gets tough. He and Tomic deserve each other

 

[rippersnipper]

She's never gotten pace off the racquet. What are you on about sam?

 

[BobbyMorri]

wat????

 

[Wolfs]

Someone hold.

Hooray!!

 

[Gibbsy]

Has probably been said many times before but shouldn't Dasha's surname be pronounced "Gorilla-va"? A bit like Pironkova?

Someone may have actually mentioned this last year that it was Sharapova in the mid-00s whose self-Anglicisation of her name started the "ovah" trend

 

[Xtreme]

wat????

What weapons does he have other than a big mouth and a dickhead personality ?

 

[Drummond]

Cmon Pironks!!! Take the trash out.
