Not A Fruit

I won a U18 tournament a couple of weeks ago in Dubai. Tomorrow I'm going to Abu Dhabi and I'll get to hit with one of them for an hour before their match

I get to play with either Nadal, Djokovic, Murray, Wawrinka, Lopez, or Almagro for an hour tomorrow...Super excited!

The main factor was Djokovic's return of serve. Djokovic IMO has the best return of serve out of all the active ATP players. Raonic was able to beat Federer because Federer is forced to slice his return of serve now that he's older. That's why Roger has a harder time against big servers nowadays. Raonic is great at playing the sliced return as he often hits a deep ball CC or DTL. Djokovic's return of serve was on point today and it showed. Also, you could tell Djokovic was reading Raonic's shots well.

I think Djokovic in 3 and Federer in 4

It's the exact opposite for me. Federer was playing night matches in Toronto and Cincy, and since I live in Asia I had to stay up till 4 or 5 to watch those matches. Today he played at 12 for me, so that was a relief Anyways, it was a good first and third set for Roger. He made too many unforced errors in the second, and Ferrer was playing great. If Fed lost that set 6-0, it would have been the 5th time he's ever been bageled on the pro tour. When it was 5-0, it seemed as though Roger was trying to make Ferrer tired. He kept Ferrer on the move, especially with the dropshots. With Andy and Nole in mediocre form on hardcourt, and with the possibility of Nadal not playing, Fed has a chance at winning the US Open IMO

Can't wait for the match at Anfield. Liverpool's starting XI IMO: Mignolet, Manquillo, Skrtel, Lovren, Johnson, Gerrard, Can, Henderson, Coutinho, Sterling, Sturridge.

Really hoping for a Federer victory today. Roger usually plays well against Ferrer (15-0 record), but their match in Toronto was close. And finally I don't have to stay up till 5 AM to watch it lol

All kidding aside, I don't think this deserves its own thread. Post in http://forum.canucks.com/topic/312588-the-official-european-football-soccer-thread/page-71.

Brb starting a Liverpool thread

I joined the league under Zlatan is God

Anyone else watching Pospisil-Federer?

Happy birthday RF!

Raonic comfortably wins the first set 6-3.

This Djokovic-Monfils match is incredibly entertaining. Certain members of the crowd are being disrespectful though.

Also, good win for Fed. Loving the new racket. He'll probably have to face Cilic next round. H2H is 4-0 to Roger but they haven't played in two years.

Tough loss for Genie. She'll be better in Cincinnati. On the brighter side, http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/NHL/Montreal/2014/08/03/21850846.html

There are some great matches today. Thank god I have Centre Court and Grandstand on my TV. There are 4 Canadians playing, and I'm rooting for 3 of them to win lol

Looking good <3
