Wimbledon Day 8
First topic message reminder :
So we are nearing the business end of Wimbledon.
Federer is up against Robredo looking to avenge his US Open defeat last year.
Nadal will face the new kid on the block Kyrgios.
Wawrinka is up against Lopez and Raonic will face Nishikori.
On the ladies side Sharapova against Kerber.
Kvitova, Lisicki and Halep all in action.
Interestingly enough Wimbledon is the only event not to have Federer, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray all clash in the Semi's. So could we see that duck get broken?

Korgi needs to drop his body wallpapers and chains.
He's loosing in aerodynamics department, too much drag affecting his torque.

Now do you see why I don't rate him belonging to the same school of Tomic, this guy has the heart to fight, a complete different breed to Tomic.
Tomic if he had the heart to fight and work he would have been a Grandslam champ now or at the least would be a top 5 player.

But how is body wallpapers take the blame for his lack of aerodynamics?
I guess his body wallpaper personifies who he is and he likes to be that way, an aggressive kid.

Re: Wimbledon Day 8
Nadal just doesn't know what to do.
He has to try and get some purchase on the Kyrgios serve.

Ronald McIntosh - he was commentating on Shvedova's golden set and failed to realise what had happened.

This guy Krygios has mastered the art of 'hit and hope' very well.

Kyrgios has got the heart and the physical prowess on Tomic, but the elder has the shots. There's time for Tomic yet but I won't expect too much from him.

Re: Wimbledon Day 8
Still think Rosol's fifth set was epic in sheer power of blowing Nadal out of court, but this great too ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif)

The slice just hasn't worked against Kyrgios.

Federer can slice par excellence, and Djokovic has a return and a BH that changes direction.

I will grant you this LF. I didn't expect this level of play from Kyrgios with all the hours he has clocked up on court.
I am very impressed!

Nadal does have the experience, so that might help.

Man, you CANNOT volley. Maybe he should do what other players who can't volley do and hire Boris Becker. ![boxing](/users/3014/26/22/82/smiles/496889.gif)
