Rafa wins a Slam with a back injury. Good luck at Wimbledon, Nadal.
Rosol is waiting for you....
Or Darcis for that matter. Personally my money is on James Ward to draw him in the first round and beat him in three
.
I just think that was the most predictable outcome we are going to see all year. For me to call it it must have been. Djokovic wants RG far, far too much. I actually wonder why, whether it's to do with wanting the career slam or whether it's purely to put Nadal in his place, at least in his mind. I know what I think, and it isn't the career slam. Those two make Andy and Federer look like best mates.
I found it laughable that they spent the last couple of sets wittering on about the conditions. Djokovic is supposed to be Superman. He's supposed to be able to handle everything, because he's got super-human powers of recovery. That's the guff the 'experts' have been feeding us since 2011. It fascinates me how this changes when Djokovic doesn't win. I'm still laughing from Courier's comment about Djokovic at Wimbledon last year, that his semi against Delpo took so much out of him that he didn't have anything left for the final. A word Jim, it starts with b, ends with k and has ollocks in the middle
. Andy is a better grass court player, just as Nadal is better on the clay when the chips are down. It's not rocket science.
I honestly couldn't care less about the result. The only good feeling I have about it is that Andy lost to the eventual winner. There's no shame in that.
