Strategically, if you're Halep, how do you not just pound the Sharapova backhand like Nadal does to Federer.

Loving the crowd whistling at Sharapova's bush league gamesmanship. Come on Simona!

In your reply to me yesterday, I didn't quite know how to respond in terms of being a homer for Halep, but I'm glad that it hasn't all panned out the way you predicted :P And holy hell did you call the shriek yesterday. Her little antics are such bullshit where Halep is all business.

I do enjoy tennis so much more when there's a villain and credit to Sharapova, she plays the part well.

Oh for gently caress's sake. To Sharapova's credit her will to win is amazing, but gently caress if she doesn't annoy every fiber of my being.

Good stuff from Sharapova. The break she took was a little long, even taking into account peeing, changing the outfit and giving herself a wipedown. Halep should've done the same at the end of the second.

I like Sharapova well enough because her shrieking has never particularly bothered me and she seems reasonably cool otherwise. Also, it always makes me laugh to think back to 2005 when people (in SAS and in the media) where confidently proclaiming her a 1 slam wonder despite being extremely young still.

Amelie Mauresmo is Andy's new coach. (for the grass season at least)  BBC Sport posted:"I'm excited by the possibilities of the new partnership and Amelie is someone I have always looked up to and admired," the Scot said. fancyclown fucked around with this message at 13:42 on Jun 8, 2014 |

^^ That's really neat. He said he would consider a woman but I didn't think that would actually happen. If Djokovic plays like he did in the semis then Nadal is going to wipe the floor with him. e: the odds on Nadal have gone down by .1 since last night.

I honestly haven't seen Djokovic play much this tournament so I have no idea whether he's been doing well or not. Nadal didn't really look good until Murray but I'm not sure if that wasn't a little bit more on Murray just playing like poo poo. I hope Djokovic can pull it out because I'm sick of seeing Nadal win the French.

I thought this too but then I realised it would be the 9th(!) time Nadal would win Roland Garros and that would be pretty amazing.

I don't like the direction this is headed. Great match so far though, Nadal is just scary at times.

Shades of old Novak, he's visibly discouraged and his shots are heavy. Doesn't help that Nadal is hitting some absolutely absurd forehands.

Oh look Nadal won, I'm shocked. Roland Garros is truly the Nadal own zone. Why did I only put £10 on 3-1? Fuuck.
