    Congrats to Horacio Z

    Zeballos 6-7 7-6 6-4 over Rafa!

    From the latter part of 2nd set until the end it never looked like Zeballos would lose it imho. Held almost every serve with ease and had Rafa at deuce on his serve more than half the time,

    Still a bit shocked he broke Rafa to love to take the match.

    2nd title for the year already.

    Love to see these Challenger guys moving up.

    Man this lost has seriously got to hurt Nadal mentally. This was supposed to be his courts, his surface. This might be the year Nadal loses his reign at the French Open.

    Like many others I thought Rafa wouldn't be at his best, so took Chardy with the games yesterday. But that match convinced me he was fine, and scared me off taking Zeballos with the games today.

    Knew he wouldn't be easy enough to break for it to be a big blowout, but as surprised as you he actually won.

    U didn't think Rafa would win after he broke at love to open the 3rd? I thought it had 6-2 Rafa written all over it at that point

    I missed seeing that game actually. But yeah you're right, I was a little over enthusiastic there.
