Goffin Raonic

[pattymayo]

Can Goffin beat Milos? As someone who lives in the Eastern Standard time zone and works a typical 9-5, i rarely get to watch tennis matches. Aside from when the tour hits North America, most matches are happening early in the morning or during the day while I'm at work.

But I still follow and read about these matches on a daily basis... this Goffin / Milos match looks super intriguing.

This Goffin guy just does not lose.. can he take down MIlos? From what I've heard / read, Milos hasn't been his best this tourney.

TY

Goffin is 41-2 in his last 43 for christs sake

While that is impressive, he has only won three of those 41 as a slight underdog. Odds of: $2.11, $2.28, $2.76.

Having said that, he's definitely a chance against Raonic.

Pat, I think goffins speed and variation will give Milos problems. I'm waiting to see if that Goffin ML gets pounded.... On a side note as well, Raonic needs points big time as he's battling Cilic,Dmitrov and nishikori for that 8th spot in London.

Im Big on Milos!!! If Jerzey can beat goff boy so can rancid

[fcmb]

I believe that GOffin is the right play there definitely.
I was watching all matches of Raonic in Basel and he looks very bad i have to admit.

[Djoking]

For this match good play Over. And one or two tiebreaks must be

[paco]

Goffin with the early break advantage

[pattymayo]

Love this Goffin kid

Long way to go though

[paco]

Milos didn't even get a break point opportunity yet

[paco]

Patty what's the delay in this match?

[pattymayo]

Lights went out is what I'm reading lol

[pattymayo]

In Basel, the match between Goffin and Raonic is suspended due to "bad light conditions".

[lucasdawg]

for how long anyone know?

[paco]

I was watching on bet365 and said man this has to be the longest rally ever

Absolutely agree. IMO this is going to be something temporary with Milos, it's just that his form dropped at the end of the season.

[paco]

Wow. Goffin double faults out of the delay while serving for set

[Djoking]

tiebreak in 1st set yeah)

[pattymayo]

Goffin choked that one away

Not looking good

[paco]

Took the 2nd set. Here we go

[paco]

Got the break. Just needs to hold serve here

[pattymayo]

Cheers to those who took Goffin

Nice win

[paco]

Collect the cash

[beefcake]

Take him again vs nadal if he beats coric...Should be +300 or better..

[matt1216]

Lol, Goffin vs Coric would be awsome!

[Optional]

Havent been following tennis much this year and didnt realize Goffin was going this well.

Bugger used to choke away matches pretty regularly in 12/13!

New coach fixed his head?

[beefcake]

Yes, the coach came up with a new method to maximize his serve for his size. Higher release point meaning more aces..For goffin this is amazing and will help him immensely.
