Anyone got a stream for this? I'm stuck at the office.

So that's why you like him.
People see it as gimmicky when he stands by the wall on returns, but I don't know if they realize the difficulty in hitting a deep return from back there.

Collins completely outclassed by Kvitova in 2nd set I think she’s odds on favorite moving forward but I want to see her play Osaka.
I was so pissed after I just recklessly gave away like 70 because I wanted to play around with the nifty toy they call live betting, that I did something I rarely do and went big on a chick match.
Went heavy on kvitova purely with the objective of chasing a quick fix back to status quo ante.
The first set was making me nervous

This could get ugly real soon.
I feel like Tittypussy is always dangerously close to exploding... like that time he bashed his own head.

I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen Rafa play this well on hard court? The mans on a mission.

He's been hurt so damn much lately that I can't tell if he's in the zone, or if this is his new normal. If it's the latter... might as well cancel clay season.

Wow Tsis with an incredible hold

Dude it’s true
He’s become almost impossible to break on serve

Completely agree with Darren
Tsis needs to back off the baseline on Rafa serve to give himself time to redirect Rafa. Dudes eating Tsis returns up for lunch.

Can't hurt to try, but Rafa is on so much fire that I don't know if it would matter.
Here's 2 break chances to serve to go up 5-4 and serve for the 2nd set.

My body is beyond ready for some racket smashing

I like him because he plays with the same kind of tenacity I used to (and still do....whenI play...which is infrequently these days).. Except he has talent....lots of talent. Usually it's only hacks like me that play every point like it's match point. It's endearing to see a guy like Rafa, who is an insanely talented athlete, play with a style generally reserved for players who have to play with that kind of intensity to offset limited shotmaking chops.

2010 U.S. Open.
Though I think this final will play out much like the 2013 Open Final between Rafa and Novak. Where Novak comes in in fine form, but Rafa comes in in even finer form, and just isn't to be stopped.

He just casually almost hit the shot of the year in the 3rd set of a blowout.
Posted on 1/24/19 at 4:25 am to MidnightVibe
Teetsy looks out of sorts at this point, but I think Rafa gets credit for that. Dude's at a high level.
Posted on 1/24/19 at 4:31 am to MidnightVibe
I'm gonna say -130 in favor of Novak. Who wins? No clue, but it will be a good one.
Went way too small on this, but couldn't trust his body to hold up...

The announcers -- BG, Fowler, Cahill -- keep talking about how it seems like Rafa is playing like he badly wants a bagel set.
Apparently teetsy pissed him off in warmups or something.
