Australian Open 2013

[Ugadalou]

Oh my god I can't stand the guy.He's a personalizes pure stupidity.Please Gilles finish him.I don't care if you don't even play the next round.

Two days ago he pulled the same crap against Lu- 5th set serving for the match he made 4 double faults in 4 consecutive match points...In every match point he served a double then on deuce hit an ace..finished it with a 2nd serve ace.And then danced to celebrate after that performance, disgusting! What an idiot!

[Ugadalou]

Allezz Gilles!!! The hero who saved us from having more of that clown!

I also don't like Monfils, but I HATE Simon.
He's the most passive player I've ever seen, never hits a winner, always waiting for opponent's unforced caused by his weak balls.

Anyway, after this marathon, Murray will have no problems in 4th round.
Just what he needed...

[Martan]

If you talk only about gamestyle, I hate them both, they both are so passive

But I like Simon, he seems like nice guy and monfils seems like a clown

[ICEMAN_9588]

Simon is passive cause he couldn't play in another way.
Tactically speaking, Monfils is an idiot, cause he has the power and the shots to be aggressive, but he prefers to stay 3 mt behind the baseline, and slide.

I mean, his athleticism is fantastic, but you can use it when you're in a defensive rally, when you can "decide" the point, just do it.

[Corbon]

Monfils simply isn't competitive enough.

That match had the 3 longest rallies of the tournament after only 5 games played. Final set was a breakfest and Simon could only move at 75% yet Monfils didn't bother to take advantage of it. Stupid.

I mean Monfils' game could've been on a similar level than Murray's but he seems to have some mental issues like Lisicki.

And while I am a bit sad that Delpo is already out (he's never won a match after being 2 sets down), I've fallen in love with Chardy's forehand, what a brilliant strike. He hit 78 overall winners (incl. Aces) but also 64 UE's while Delpo was 36-35.

Oh yeah, Serena hit a 129 mph ace, as fast as the fastest serve by Federer.

[Kono]

Go Wawrinka!

[VMoe86]

This reminds me of Cilic vs. Murray at US Open 2012, never in doubt.

[Kono]

Stan playing the best match of his career?

[Corbon]

3 break points to a 5-4 for Stan.

Stan is too tired to close it out.

[Algo4]

what a blow up there with that backhand miss

3rd break point now. To the net, back on deuce.


What a steal

[Corbon]

And now watch Stan gettng broken and losing anyway.

Ok maybe next time

[Algo4]

And now watch Stan gettng broken and losing anyway.

instead of that, 3 "easy" misses (tiredness aside, how can he miss those shots I mean).

That was the backhand you were looking for last game

[Corbon]

Stan is going to lose, that's a fact.

[Vieira151]

****, that match was awesome. Especially the last point. Match of the season? Most probably.
