Monfils is so cocky!I'm glad Isner brought him back on the ground!Who does Monfils think he is?...Connors?...(He said at french tv-before his match VS Isner-that he wasn't at his top,that he was to be on top in 2nd week...

)
Good job Isner!

honestly... must be a nightmare to play against Isner or Karlovic, a lottery.

I've never played somebody with a serve like Isner/Roddick/Karlovic's, but it's definitely frustrating playing against somebody with a practically unstoppable serve...you feel like no matter what you do, it doesn't matter, he's just going to hold his serve forever.

And i watched a bit of Ljuby-Karlo and i think Karlo has improved some ways...
His Fh looked (to me...I'm not an expert nor a player) a lot better to what i saw last year...He made some wonderful passing-shots to Ljuby who is a beast at serves too!Karlo won 6-3 3-6 6-3 7-6(7) and plays Nadal...

Can't stand Monfils and his riling up of the crowd - by waving his arms, etc. Not the best sign of sportsmanship. On the other hand, if everyone was as cut and dry as Federer, tennis would be boring, I guess.

I like when it's done due to the fact that you're in the heat for winning a point...Like McEnroe...And it wasn't done to show how strong he was...
But Monfils is just cocky!...

McEnroe, Connors: both cocky bastards.

I guess the fact that people talk/complain about Monfils makes him good for the game. Like McEnroe/Connors, in their day.

Clijsters WTF :cry:

Kuznetsova struggles through, I'd like to see her win through but I think should she get past Petrova and face Henin her record against her is not great. Maybe the draw is opening up for Safina?

I loved both McEnroe and Connors. And yeah, I agree, Monfils hasn't earned the right to be cocky.

Monfils sucks. He's not fun to watch. And pumping his hands up and down to the crowd like a neanderthal every other point looks utterly ridiculous. Getting pumped up and playing w/ emotion is great, but act like you've there before. what a moron, i hate monfils.

And Jimbo & Jmac were the masters of playing to the crowd and using them. Monfils the baffoon would beat his chest and scream after winning the coin toss.

You know what a Guys like Monfils and all the other Medicore Players like Philip Kohlschreiber and how they all called is short of?

It's the Fire. These lame ass broke Players have no Fire. Their desire to win is to small.

That's what I thought when I saw Kohlschreiber against Nadal on the Court today. This guy was almost fallen asleep by a Grand Slam Australian Open Match.

Some of them just don't realize what a big Talent they have and what a great destiny they have. I mean on this Level this Sports goes about a lot of money and Prestige. But they are to lame to realize it. They are used to their own lameness.

Many Players I know from the past had the Fire and a few actual Players have it. Like a Nadal, a Federer or a Mc Enroe in the good old times.

But many of the acutal Tour Players are just to lame. So remember. If you got no motherfucking Fire, better don't come on the court, because you are already destroyed even if you don't realize it. :lol:
