Tomic in hot water again. On match point he didn't bother moving his feet to return serve...oh and he held the racquet the wrong way around to try to return with the handle.

So the latest, he might miss out on the Olympics because of that lol

BERNARD Tomic’s Olympic aspirations hang in the balance after his latest tanking misdemeanour at the Madrid Open drew widespread condemnation.

The Queenslander was panned on social media for reversing his racquet on match point, gripping the head instead of the handle, and allowing opponent Fabio Fognini to land an unchallenged ace.

The vapid nature of Tomic’s 6-2 6-4 loss, coupled with the disinterested finale, has again alarmed high-ranking Olympic officials ahead of the Rio Games.

Tomic stood motionless as Fognini served, making no attempt to return before greeting the Italian at the net with a smile.

Has let Stan back in in the tie breaker here :$
Yeah a bit hesitant to take his shots once he got in front; can't afford to do that against Wawrinka. I don't mind that though, I prefer it to him swinging at every single ball. Just has to find the right balance.

Couple of things....

Did anyone else notice Nick holding his shoulder and wincing a bit early in the match? Hope he is not carrying an injury.

Also, is Stan a bit overweight? Looks a bit tubby around the midriff :oops:
 
Nick played really well today. Don't think he'll do much damage at the french but I think Wimbledon he can really really do well. With a decent draw and a bit of luck he can give that slam a shake. It's easily his best surface.
 
Had Gav and Nick in a multi but ended up removing the betting slip, couldn't trust either. :rage:
