CAMELOT FANTASIES

I lost that picture too. I don't know how it disappeared.


he just to serve better, return better, and hit his backhand better. rest will fall in place.


and he has to stop pushing so many balls back. he does not have the best slice.

it is a defensive shot and they jump on it nearly 100% of the time.

roger will attack. he is not going to hang back and let rafa get into much rhythm. at least that is game plan.

his game plan is to attack, attack, and then attack some more. he wants to take time away from rafa and not give him a chance to gain much rhythm off the ground.



I believe rafa will win in 4  sets tomorrow. nadal knows what is at stake.

all of tennis history is at stake. roger already has the record.

now it is rafa's turn at some history. rafa has to seize this moment. he has no other option.

I guess we worry too much. I had it bad earlier, but then I re-watched the match and Nadal didn't play that bad. Dimitrov was playing out of his shoes, but Rafa playing crappy was still able to contain him. As the match wore on he got better. It's just that we've gotten used to the hard court monster and this tournament he hasn't displayed that, but...

Before this round he's been playing lesser ranked players with nothing to lose. Tomorrow there will be more on the line for both him and Federer. Nadal recognizes the significance of this match which is why I think he's practicing without the tape. He's ready, I'm sure of it.
