    Is Nadal hurt right now?

    Put him in some parlays... and he didn't try on that one rally. Never see him do that. Looked hurt or something.

    He might just be letting his fellow countryman win.

    Don't understand why any true competitor would ever go out and lose on purpose. (Not saying Nadal is doing that, but apparently it does happen)

    Nadal trying to make it look good. Like he's really having a hard time with Verdasco. If he tanks this match nobody is gonna buy it and they shouldn't.

    Even so, he wouldn't tank on purpose on a masters event just to make him look good.

    which is why I believe Nadal will still win. I don't have anything on the match but now I am interested in seeing how this unfolds.

    He is too much of a competitor to tank. Hopefully he takes some cocaine or something and amps up!! i need him to win :/ also watching nadal play good tennis is actually enjoyable.

    I almost played the over in this match. I noticed that after every time Nadal had wiped out Verdasco, he had come back very strong in their very next meeting, but all the times he did that was on hard courts not on clay. Ugh should've remembered that this isnt exactly clay. Should've taken the -130 and cashed. Terrific.

    Verdasco's a nutcase. He plays like a wimp when he's behind. No way Nadal loses to this chimp.

    Verdasco broke right back. Nadal could have shut the door but took the game off mentally.

    Nadal's next opp is Berdych, they've met 15 times. I hope this match makes the odds a little better.

    He can't hold his serve right now. It's pathetic that the No. 2 player in the world can't hold his serve once to close out a match against a far inferior opponent (w/ all due respect to Verdasco)

    You mean Verdasco's next opponent? Nadal is going to get his serve broke 3 consecutive times. He may not even get to a tie break it if becomes 4 broken serves in a row ...

    It's like Nadal is choking on purpose. It's not even close. Up a double break and now even. Served for the match twice and broken both times. Stupid.

    It looks so apparent Nadal's throwing games to make it interesting for his countryman. He didnt even try to return like 6 straight shots. So apparent it's funny.

    Nadal is purposely allowing Verdasco back in the match. He is losing purposely. Wish I could of hopped on Verdasco live.

    Another tennis player I've lost respect for. If you don't intend to win just forfeit the match. Why would you play it out if your gonna lose purposely?

    Verdasco has won 4 straight game. From 5-2 to 6-5. Nadal is dumping this match on purpose.
