Can Darcis upset Nadal at wimby?

[TheMLBKing]

why is he still favored to win the match?

[horja1]

yeah

[horja1]

Nadal still at -200

why is he still favored to win the match?

because his name is Rafael Nadal

[shari91]

Mahut is a beast Shari. He will easily beat his opponent 3-0

He might but you can't say he's 110% lock. If you're going to say that then what's Serena tomorrow? 500%?

[adila1401]

Ok..now, the high chalk parlayers should be worried

[Demonata]

come on Darcis.

[TheMLBKing]

Ok..now, the high chalk parlayers should be worried

what's sad is I was gonna originally take it out because I don't trust nadal on any surface but clay. But I thought "well he can't possibly lose in the first round, can he?" oh well, lesson learned.

[EaglesPhan36]

Insane. All a mental battle now. Thinking about last year or thinking about digging out a set?

[w@lt]

Wow, never did I think Nadal would be making me nervous about my parlay, WTF.

[pinnacle420]

2-0 really lol

[TheMLBKing]

almost makes me wish he would break his ankle here and retire. my book plays 3 sets for action on slams.

[EaglesPhan36]

Somewhere, Roger Federer must be stabbing a voo doo doll. This could really open up a path for him to get to the semis now if he gets his shit together.

[horja1]

why is he still favored to win the match?

he is not favorite anymore

[TheMLBKing]

that's the match.

[MUHerd37]

Match over now.

Ya, hope he pulls through for ya man but it's not looking good..i saw a thread with dude putting 2.8k to win 350 or something with rafa included and he's usually on point but that's the risk u take with these..anyways glgl

Still a chance he retires but he's so bloody stubborn. I'm crossing my fingers for you.

[thirtytwo]

ill wait until darcis blows match points and get on nadal live

[Demonata]

Steve Darcis???? Lol, hahaha. I saw him play in Dallas & if Steve Darcis beats Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon, I will move to inner Russia and live in a fukking cave for the rest of my life eating little critters that run around during the daylight hours. Question is, will Nadal cover the -11.5 games or whatever the hell it will be???? MY gut says, probably

I'm gonna miss ya bro.

This will be an interesting thread to follow.

[letsgo]

Nadal's knee is going to prevent him from winning more than the French every year.

[EaglesPhan36]

So I have not been able to watch hardly anything ... was his knee an issue or did he just play like dog shit?

[shari91]

Jesus man. This is unbelievable. I hope nod made a killing off this.

[adila1401]

Ofcourse he is gonna start limping now...

[maxd131]

Russia sounds nice.

[adila1401]

He started limping in the third set down 4-2 when it was over...he was moving fine the whole match..just not hitting shots, ofcourse Darcis was a beast and Rafa couldn't hold serve

[shari91]

So I have not been able to watch hardly anything ... was his knee an issue or did he just play like dog shit?

His knee's definitely an issue. Can't stretch out, speed is way down. He's been trying the whole time though... just limited movement. But Darcis absolutely deserves most of the credit. Most other players wouldn't have been able to capitalise on a subpar Nadal and he's been playing like a beast.

[Tmuston Beltics]

Ofcourse he is gonna start limping now...

Yep, if he loses I can already see "Nadal lost because he's injured"

[EaglesPhan36]

Sounds familiar. This is a bigger shocker to me than last year. Last year I can write off because Rosol got the benefit of the roof if I remember right which made the surface very fast and conducive to his bigger game.

Really a shame if the knee is that troublesome again. Got a good rest between RG and now, but he might have overdone clay season to begin with. Dude should not play much this Summer if the knee is a problem. Pick a couple tourneys and be ready for the US Open.

[TheMLBKing]

useless piece of scum doesn't even retire when he's clearly dogging it. And here I was worried about juan monaco.

[shari91]

He was ok in the first but something happened in the second. I'm watching on tv and the computer so I can hear different commentators. Both sets picked it up in the second that his movement was wonky. I'm sure he'll overexaggerate it all now though.

[horja1]

I'm gonna miss ya bro.

Russia sounds nice.

[EaglesPhan36]

LoL at the guys calling for Rafa's head because he won't retire. Injuries are part of the game. Shit happens. Onto the next. I lost a future on Nadal today to win the quarter, so be it. You guys gotta bet tennis more. These won't sting if they keep happening.

[horja1]

no ... 3-0 Nadal

I did not espect to be sooooooo wrong about this ...

[face]

just like getting kicked out by lucas rosol last year
