Sharapova vs Azarenka is just comically awful. The grunts, the errors, the missed chances.

Emotionally spent Nadal. Tired Nadal. If Tsonga falls in straights, Ferrer will have a damn good chance on Sunday!! :P

Okay, fairly good chance.

Before the match, I thought Rafa would have won in 4 sets. Almost got it.
But anyway, I was just thinking...how could Nadal lose a match in Paris?

The only answer I can give is: when he gets "old" (I mean, speaking of tennis career).

My predicitons from TE chat logs, June 2th :

[19:16:42] <Eli4s> i didn't gave you my predictions still
[19:16:46] <Eli4s> so there it is
[19:16:53] <Eli4s> i predict a Nadal - Ferrer final
[19:17:00] <Eli4s> and Ferrer winning the title :p
[19:17:22] <Eli4s> and i predict that will be boring to watch


:P

As predicted in 3 sets Ferrer reaches his 1st GS final, in my opinion he could beat Rafa, seems stronger than Rafa and in the past he's been closed to beat him in many matches.

About Rafa there's not much to say, amazing guy.

All I know is the following: I hope for Ferrer to do the impossible, but I think something like at AO 2011 has to happen (Nadal injured) for him to pull it off.

Nadal vs. Djokovic at RG 2013 was like their match at AO 2012 it seems, this time with reversed roles in the 5th set. Djokovic, worst overhead among what, Top 10, Top 20, Top 100? :p

Just a few months ago Tsonga said something like that: "It's almost impossible for us to defeat 2 or 3 Fab 4 in a row during a Grand Slam".

Well, Jo, today you had the opportunity of a lifetime (even if he already played a GS final, but he was barely known in 2008), and you wasted it for good.
I mean, only respect for Ferrer, he's a great player, a fantastic clay court player and it was his favourite surface, but still...

If you want to prove to be a great player, you have to beat him and go to the final. Or at least, try to be more competitive.
But this is Jo Tsonga. A few times a champion, mostly a worthy top ten (and nothing more).

I expect an amazing 5th setter. Today was dissapointing. The match vs, Tsonga?, was pitiful, at least the other i've seen a lot of amazing shots, perhaps it was not the best in terms of quality (we can discuss what quality is), but it was great entertaining.

Ferrer is way too consistent for a fumbler like Tsonga, home crowd or not. Result isn't a surprise at all. Can't see him taking more than 1 set off of Nadal though.
