    Raonic only 90/1 to win French?

    Thought this was interesting.

    Pinnacle odds for Raonic and a few notable guys with longer odds:


    1009 J.W. Tsonga +15000
    1011 N. Almagro +15000
    1012 D. Nalbandian +35000
    1013 F. Verdasco +20000
    1014 R. Gasquet +20000
    1015 M. Raonic +9000

    Roanic never EVER. period


    Tsonga, Almagro have RG semis capability.


    honestly, I don't see how Nadal loses. I can't get my mind around it. if they had played that AO final on clay... Djoker loses. Djoker is not in his world-beater form right now. that leaves just Fed... and Nadal will own Fed's anus if they meet in the final.

    the only plausible way Nadal loses, imo, is if he gets beat before the final... but who? who can pull a Soderling? I don't see it

    Soderling ain't walking through that door, fellas ... It's between Nadal and Djokovic unless they suddenly decide to install blue clay at RG.

    If they played all the majors on clay Nadal would have a lot more than 10 grand slam wins.

    Djoker is not in his world-beater form right now. that leaves just Fed... and Nadal will own Fed's anus if they meet in the final.
    Djokovic is still capable of beating Rafa.

    As for Federer, it's the french

    Kinda like Isners draw,he wont play anybody till the QF.clay looks to be allowing him to pump those serves in.

    True, but my point is that Djoker in his non-2011 form barely winning the Aussie on advantageous HC.... no way he's getting it done vs. Rafa on this clay in RG.

    Also, Fed would likely have 5 RG trophies were it not for Rafa. He is #2 on clay.

    I'm afraid we might get the 2011 replay of RG... Fed knocks out Djoker and then get ass-slammed by Rafa once again on the clay.

    federer is good on clay, but it's still his weakest surface, and I highly doubt he'd have won RG five times

    Federer was #2 on clay during his prime. No longer.

    you were saying federer would have gay sex with rafa or something and I just said it's the french, so you're likely right, because Federer at the french against rafa...

    How could he not have 5 RG?

    Already has 1. Lost to Rafa 5 times.. and each time Rafa won it. 4 finals and 1 semi.

    First Rafa final was against Puerta. Fed would've won that.

    Finals.. Fed would've beaten every single semi opponent that Rafa faced.


    I think yes, he would have 5.

    Well, that Raonic line had to have been a bad line on Pinnacle. Not nearly fair value.

    As it turns out, Raonic beat Ramirez and Levine before losing to Monaco. Not very impressive.
