Btw, I caught Masha arguing with the umpire about something near the end of the first set about a second serve or something but missed the point itself. Also, I have no commentators (such a blessing!) What was that about? Oh my god, that was unbelievable that Ma$ha argued at all, either she was trying to cheat or she's really fucking stupid - Mladenovic second serve called out, Hawkeye showed it in, EVERYONE KNOWS YOU RESTART THE POINT AND SHE GETS A FIRST SERVE. Everyone except Ma$ha, apparently.

Has a player ever won a match after losing the first 2 sets 7-6 7-6? I'm sure it must have happened but I can't even think of one example.

Two sets and a break Rafa's started to limp - he's been avoiding his BH all match, either running round it or slicing it. But Darcis has been reading his game so well. Really enjoying the thought of Rafa doing WORSE than last year

It feels like any player could beat Nadal right now. I can see on his face Darcis is afraid but no way he's losing now.

The third set has been so bad from Rafa, what are these netted volleys? But Darcis is keeping his level very high despite the occasional over-excited shank...

Wow, Rafa is out.
Credit to Darcis, he went for it and didn't choke at all in the last game. That backhand DTL was brilliant, even topping Rafa's BH DTL in the first point.

I knew I shouldn't expect much from a player named "Estrella Cabeza Candela". This would be CandleHead that everyone goes on about, yes? Also, this loss makes life much easier for Muzza - he's had the most trouble with Rafa out of the BIG MEN or whatever.

I'm a little disappointed because I wanted the Roger/Rafa QF for everyone to bitch about.
Watching Homewrecker Petra now. If you like defense, do not watch this.

I was obviously rooting for Rafa, but I slept through his match after sleepless night. I can pretend this match never happened now. I just hope he won't be out for the rest of the year like last year. I'll root for Murray now (and for every hopeless case in Tsonga, Berdych etc).
