Grand Slam Roland Garros 2019

[BobbyMorri]

Was always gonna lose. Terrible both days, hit a few good shots then falls apart on serve. Seems all too familiar for Novak...

Domi played a smart clay game. Lots of spin and moving Nole around the net. Never letting him settle. He made Joker play bad.

Curious question.. who actually is going for Thiem due to being a Federer fan. Salty is salty. You know Novak is the best chance of beating Nadal right?

lol. take that crap away. there is no real swiss wearing Fed fans on here regularly.

I want Thiem to win cause he deserves a Grand Slam. He is young and of the new gen. Nadal has 11 of them. Domi is the 2nd best clay courter for the last 4 years. 2 semis and 2 finals at RG in those years

So, yes, Domi is the best chance to beat Nadal.

I liked Thiem since I watched him live during the AO. IMHO Thiem is ready, he's a better player and more mature with his game. Hopefully we'll get a good match later tonight.

I've had a great day

Now for Ash to finish it off with a win

Crowd building nicely.

Shoulder to shoulder in the stadium.

Been a big fan of his since 2014 and try to watch as many of his matches in Melbourne as i can. He's been the 2nd best clay court player over the past 3 seasons, made 4 RG semi finals in a row. Would be a well deserved champion. I'd love for him to win his maiden gs title tomorrow.

I always cheer on the semi finalist that isn't Djoker/Nadal/Federer. Mens tennis has stagnated a bit with their dominance.

Also Nadal winning doesn't change anything. Federer remains GOAT on every surface except for the FO. boring.

[BobbyMorri]

Team King Of Clay here. Been a Rafa fan since late 2008. Watched most of his matches now I have Fox before that only the GS’ that were televised on fta.
He only has 11 FO Titles, not 13 lol, really want him to get another one for the record books but if Thiem won, I wouldn’t be upset as I like him as an up and coming player too.

Can I say I'm going for Nadal because I'm not a Federer fan?
Would much rather Nadal be the slam record holder.

Gee if this took place in Australia Rod Laver would have been packed to the rafters.

 

[BobbyMorri]

I reckon we have more vocal Rafa/Djoker fans on this forum than Fed fans. I know during the US hardcourt season, Fed is enemy number 1 due to the crowd "support" he gets.

anyway, GO ASSH!!!!!!

 

[hamohawk1]

Is it just me or does the ball almost seem invisible on these courts?

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

So many empty seats

 

[pepsi]

Gees I've got sweaty palms already, heart rate up.

Smart really nervous for Thiem keep me awake, now time for Ash to shine .

 

[pepsi]

Interesting tactical change from Barty to start. She has used the topspin backhand more than previous matches already.

 

[Xtreme]

Bartys in front

Sound the siren!!!

So many empty seats

They need to talk to Port Adelaide regarding their policies to make the stadium look better when only half full.

 

[rocker_oz33]

This commentary from the lady giving me the shits already.
Go ASH.
