OT: Tennis anyone?

Re: OT: Tennis anyone? Milos Raonic, etc.

A win in the doubles is a must.

I'm assuming Nestor will play?
 
Re: OT: Tennis anyone? Milos Raonic, etc.

Yeah it's Nestor/Pospisil vs Benneteau/Llodra

The ones in bold are pretty good in doubles. This is going to be tough!!! :facepalm
 
Re: OT: Tennis anyone? Milos Raonic, etc.

Wow... very interesting to have Milos play as doubles partner with Nestor. Will his serve outweigh his inexperience in doubles?

Unfortunately, Canada is falling apart in the first set tiebreak.
 
Re: OT: Tennis anyone? Milos Raonic, etc.

Milos didn't get the 1st serve in like he usually does so that made it easier for France.
 
Re: OT: Tennis anyone? Milos Raonic, etc.

We're a serious underdog aren't we? Don't know much about tennis.

Yes... we weren't really supposed to have advanced this far but France's best player I think isn't here this weekend though? I think he is their best player or at least a top player in the world.

Tsonga is #6 in the world.

Yeah, Canada is a major underdog despite all the hype on Sportsnet. ;)
 
Re: OT: Tennis anyone? Milos Raonic, etc.

I was thinking of Gael Monfils who is ranked 13th in the world but I see they have another guy named Gilles Simon ranked 12th, who I don't think is here either? :eek6:

Yeah the French have a ton of good players ... Lots with talent haven't lived up to expectations (Gasquet, Paul Henri Matthieu). Now I say that but I wish Canada had this many players who haven't lived up to expectations. :lol

Well, at least we have Raonic, on the men's side! ;)

And Marino and Eugénie Bouchard on the women's side. The second player has been touted as having tons of talent.
Wozniak, unfortunately has battled injuries.
